It was a bright, sunny day outside and Maxwell couldn't be happier with how things were turning out! He hadn't really expected much of today, or any day in general. However, Artemis had caught up with him earlier and told him he was going to have a wonderful day! He had no idea what she'd meant by that, or if it was just a random, nice thing to say, but for some reason she was always right. That girl was way too spazzy for her own good.
"She's right so far." He spoke to himself, strolling around in the treetops. A perfect, sun-shiny day! Now...what could make this better?

As she hung softly she felt as if something was about to happen that would make her look at the world in a different light.
"she's right so far....." Her eyes flashed open as she heard the words from someone close by. She ran them through her mind, what could he mean by that? Could they read her mind? She shook her head softly, that wasn't possible she knew that, so if it wasn't her something else must have recently happened.
Being curious she moved closer to the direction of the voice, and there before her she saw a colourful looking male, his smile seemed to light up the forest itself. She blushed for a moment as she was slightly taken aback. Shaking her head softly and taking a deep breath she prepared to introduce herself. On the count of three..... one.... two.... three.... As she reached three she moved into his line of sight so that she was on the same level of the trees as him and waved before speaking softly, her voice was gentle and mild, yet a little shaky out of the nervousness of his reaction.
"Hello there.... its a nice day isn't it??"

Maxwell only blinked once in surprise, her hadn't really expected to see anyone else out today. He figured most of them would be off with their family or friends. However, what Artemis said struck him again. You're going to have a wonderful day Maxwell! Of course...He shook the thought from his head, how could she know anything about this?
He flashed a smile across his face, he was always a little nervous around females, but seeing as she was a little nervous herself, it helped him a bit. Not to mentioned, she'd commented on the day! How irionic was that?
"More like...a wonderful day!" Maxwell commented, laughing just a bit at his awful pun, of course she wouldn't get it. "Asides from the day, it's also wonderful to meet you. I'm Maxwell by the way! What might your name be? I don't recall having seen you around before." He asked, keeping up his bright and cheerful smile.

She watched him as his mind seemed to wander away, his smile was delightful. Yet in his eyes she could tell he was a little shocked to have been disturbed. Maybe she had done the wrong thing interupting his walk.
"Yes indeed, it is a wonderful day Maxwell."
She contemplated that name a little, it had a nice ring to it. Her eyes wandered to his colourful fur again, before running back to his eyes as she spoke, her voice was soft and light. Her nervousness was starting to wear off, though her cheeks remained slightly pinker than usual.
"No I don't think we have met before, I think I would have remembered, my name is Bakung. It means Wild Lilly. A silly name I know, but I am definatly stuck with it."
She giggled softly, before looking down at the tip of her tail, what was she saying, this wasn't like her, usually she would have stayed away, what was running through her head? Was it fate?
"Would you like to take a walk?"
She paused softly, taking a deep breath before adding.
"It would be nice to talk to you for a while Maxwell."
She looked up waiting eagarly for his reply, she wondered if she could be herself around him, or if it would scare him off.

Well, Bakung seemed to be almost exactly like Maxwell. Though, he'd probably never have the nerve to ask anyone if he could walk with them. He was too shy, and most Tokoro considered him a little weird. So what? He loved nature! Big deal...
"Bakung is a wonderful name! Wild Lilly, that's simple adorable." Being the Hippie he is he couldn't help but love the name. He kept up his smile, he couldn't help it. He was so happy at the moment, a girl was actually talking to him.
"I'd love to walk with you Bakung. It's such a wonderful day to do so and I'm interested in learning more about you." He nodded his head and really looked over Bakung for the first time. She was beautiful! The colors of her fur mixed together perfectly and the pattern was very interesting. She looked like she belonged in nature itself. Hippie moment all over again.

She blushed softly at his responce to her name, he though it was adorable. That was most certainly a first, she was to jump up and down with glee, instead she lowered herself down to the branch by her feet and sat down for a moment, her tail licking her neck gently. She watched as he smiled over and over again, and couldn't help but join him by smiling herself.
"I would like to know more about you as well.... the first question is a little less personal though."
She giggled a little, lowering her head gently, the sun catching one of her eyes sharply through the trees causing her to flinch, she nearly lost her balance but caught herself and lifted her head up again hoping that he had seen her moment of clumsiness. She continued her sentance, her voice a little shaky.
"Shall we go left, right or carry on the way you where going?"
She noted his eyes looking her up and down. She tried to resist blushing more in an attempt to resist drawing more attention to herself than she already had.

"I ws just kinda wandering myself. I guess we can continue straight, and if anything catches our eyes we can go from there?" Maxwell suggested, scanning at area around them. It was such a wonderfully, bright day, and Bakung only proved to make it ten times better.
Well, he started off, making his way though the trees, traveling in the same direction as he'd been going before. "I'll let you ask a question first, since you were so bold to speak up first. That's something I don't really have the guts to do..." He said, a light blush crossing his face. He was shy by nature.

She turned around softly so that she was next to him although lagging ever so slightly behind. She prefered for others to lead, although she was happy to take leadership when it was required she liked the happy go lucky approach. The soft breeze within the trees was delightful against her fur and it made it billow ever so softly. She listened to the words "and if anything catches our eyes we can go from there." she knew the responce that was playing though her mind already but she shook it aside as a mimcical whim.
She started moving in the direction that Maxwell has been travelling in when she had interupted him. She smiled to him.
"The first question..."
She blinked softly as the sun licked her face again through the trees canopy. What did she want to know, it wasn't as if they where rushing, she could tell that from the gentle pace they took with each step. She looked to her paws and noticed that they where in step with his. A slight blush flushed her face, but it disappeared quickly. She looked around as they wondered.
"The first question, it should be a good one."
Knowing that one question and answer could paint an image that could never be removed it was vital to pick the right one, at least at first. For the first couple of questions would be the ones that they would both remember throughout their friendship. Should she ask about him personally, or perhaps his family, maybe his hobbies. Take a heavier breath than the rest taken she looked towards him and spoke softly.
"What is the thing that you hold most dear?"
She knew that this question would make him think, and that she would learn more from it than asking about his family there was always time to ask about everything else later on. The wind blew slightly harder than before providing a gentle chill under the golden sun that provided so much warmth. As she waited for his reply she walked silently next to him, her soft breath the only thing that could be heard over the whistling wind. Her tail moved softly from side to side.

Now that, threw him off a bit. What did he hold most dear? Well, he wasn't one to love material possessions. So, what could he possible hold dear? There wasn't really anything he wouldn't part with. Then it hit him, he felt so silly for trying to think for so long, how could he have kept her waiting for such a silly answer? He chuckled lightly, but recovered. He didn't want her to think he was crazy.
"Most dear? I'd have to say friends! Who doesn't need someone to whine to when things go wrong?" He answered her question lightly and smiled. Now that he thought about it, all his friends were females! How annoying...Artemis and Calista were really his only friends, but they were useful. And they loved to throw parties, or well Artemis did.
"I'm curious now, what do you hold most dear?" He asked, tilting his head to the side to look down at her.

She continued to sway her tail from side to side as she walked, listening intently to his responce, she could tell that he was trying to make a good impression and didn't want to give an answer that she may deem upworthy.
"Friends. That is a good thing to hold dear."
She said in response to him, smiling softly as the continued walking. The wind had settled slightly so that the heat started to n** at her ears. He wanted to know what she held most dear, she couldn't simply repeat the same answer he had or he would think that she didn't have a mind of her own, yet there where so many things around her that she could pick instead. She loved the sun, and how it warmed up her fur, she loved the rain and how it cooled her from head to toe, she loved the butterflies and how they went where ever they wantes, and she loved the flowers that grew to remind the world that there was hope and life left in it yet. Flowers, well lillies to be exact, where the meaning to her name.
"Flowers, they bring hope and smiles to everyones faces, and eventhough they are only around for a brief moment you are always left with the memory of their smell and beauty. They can connect people in ways that other objects can't...."
She paused.
"Of course its usually gentlemen that give flowers to ladies."
She waited to see if he would reply before asking her next question.
"I suppose I should ask a more traditional question now, tell me about yourself. Who are these friends that you hold so dear? What do you want to do with your life? Tell me anything you like, I am happy to listen to you."
She smiled softly, licking her lips gently as they started to dry out in the heat.

Maxwell smiled at her answer, if he hadn't wanted to seem so noble and completely not joke-like, he probably would have said flowers, but it was true! He loved his friends, no matter how crazy they got sometimes, and all the things they drag him into. Though, he has to admit, the parties can get pretty fun. Maybe he'd ask Bakung to tag along one time, that would be great!
"That's really awesome, Flowers are Great!" He flashed he a bright smile and then listened to her next question, or well questions.
"Artemis and Calista are my two best friends, Callie already has a family of her own now, so I don't see her that often, kids can be a handful! Then, there's Artemis how is totally head over heels for Maji! That's all she talks about, though I don't think she's seen him in a while. She's a total spazz." He said, chuckling lightly. They made life interesting for sure.
"What do I want to do with my life? That's a toughie...I haven't really thought about it. I do enjoy planting flowers, seeds, and any other nature like think. I've been called a Hippie often." He rolled his eyes sarcastically.
"Well~ I want to hear about you too! So, lets come back to be later! Let me know about you? Anything at all! I'm all ears!" He said, flashing her another soft smile. She was so sweet.

She smiled softly at him, listening intently as he spoke with an increased enthusiasm, she giggle slighty unintentially, wishing deep down that she too had friends. His question was predictable yet it did not make her reply any easier, there wasn't anything exactly interesting about her.
"Well I must say that I am not that interesting" she allowed her cheeks to turn an astonishing tone of amber. "I have very few friends, Dod is nice, always happy and cheerful yet his head always seems to be in the clouds. Then there is Tao but I do not know too much about her yet, except that she loves to imitate the movements of other creatures. She is fascinating to watch. And now I guess, if it is OK with you, I have you as a friend also."
She paused, her a,ber glow throbbing as the blood rushed to her head, she hoped she wasn't being too forward, maybe he didn't want to be her friend just wanted to talk to her since she had interupted his stroll through the forest.
She carried on walking, unsure of what to say anymore. Her tail swayed softly, left, right, left, right.
"OUCH!"
She cried out in pain, stopping in her stride, her tail suddenly moist with a warm liquid. She turned her head, trying to pull herself free what had nipped at her tail with its sticky claws. As she did she saw that her tail was caught on a sharp branch, blood trickled gently from the wound to the ground. Forgetting where she was and who she was with she tried to tug her tail free as panic started to set in.
