Aziza's adolescent description:
A cornucopia of golden hues tinted as if by the brush of sunset envelop the form of the young lioness before you. This adolescent leonine is a rather exquisite member of her species. Her colouring is multifold, the underside of her belly and her paws tinted like warm honey as it fades into a dazzling crimson gold which covers the rest of her. The winsome beauty of childhood has metamorphed the cub into the ravishing demi-adult before you. Angular lines form the sculpted features of her face which are dominated by dramatic green eyes. Vivacious and sparkling, they seem to have a life of their own as they dance with every inclination of this pretty young thing. Such dizzying pools of cut-stone emerald. A soot-coloured nose is blanketed by expressive whiskers, twitching as she catches the various scents on the Savannah breeze. She really is rather eye-catching, this one: and at the age where she is sure to be breaking hearts. This half grown lioness moves slowly and purposefully through the Savannah grasses, taut muscles evident despite her lissome physique. The elegant grace of the slender beauty only hints at the devastating huntress that lies beneath. This is not just another pretty face. This is Aziza.
Pride Rock - The Pridal Cavern
Here is the true heart of Pride Rock: the Caverns. This is where the pride sleeps, rests and meets when the season comes with rains. The ground in the large cavern is flat, the rock worn and dusty. A circular space, this is excellent for accommodating about a score of grown cats, though sometimes a few more depending on where they are and how they're sleeping. The females often sleep spread out, cubs and young felines among them as well. In the center of the back wall juts forth a small ledge that serves as the royal bed. The king, the queen, and any offspring take to dreams on the flat slab. Any royal relatives also take spots on or nearby the bed. Some spots of nest-like areas line the walls, and some bundles of grass are littered over the floor to soften the hard stone on the backs, and limbs of tired lions and lionesses. The somewhat domed ceiling also makes for excellent acoustics, and thus the cavern is sometimes used as a meeting place.

Is all everyone does here SLEEP all the time? The adopted princess of Pride Rock stalks around the pridal cavern - bored out of her mind. Where is the adventure in CUB sitting? How could her mother think she would enjoy that? Aziza's tail twitches behind her in boredom. Surely, it must be sunrise by now and she can leave for the hunt.
The soft ticks of barely extended claws resound quietly throughout the pridal cavern as a deep russet toned shadow detaches herself from the morning din outside and slinks carefully in. It seems Eos has slipped out again for the evening and is just returning in an attempt to beat the pre-dawn aurora and the wakefulness of the majority of the pride. Soft cyan eyes swiftly scan the din, and seeing nothing in the first pass the lass prods onwards eying a patch of floor somewhat detached from the majority of the pride. With luck, she'll be able to settle in before Mother realizes she's been gone...
The golden ears of the young royal perk slightly at the sound of claw upon rock. While the rest of the pride - and thankfully cubs - slumber, the darling of Pride Rock turns her gaze towards the encroaching leonine . "Eos" She murmurrs softly, a grin breaking her maw. "Sneaking out again are we?" Aziza arches an eyebrow playfully as she regards her russet-hued pride sister.
"Indeed," Eos replies with a murmur and a returned small smile after only a moment of surprised hesitation, adjusting her course to move closer to facilitate easy, quiet communication. The princess' inquiry, while unexpected, is to be expected Eos supposes considering how unsubtle she's been in the past departing the cavern at night. Thankfully the other adolescent seems to be the only one whom has noticed yet, so perhaps damage control is still possible. "You should try it sometime Azy - it beats being couped up in here all the time. The view is quite nice as well." Well, at least certain views are nice - if watching the hunks across the way on patrol is considered part of the scenery.
"Oh STARS would I love to!" The green eyed leonine groans rolling her eyes towards the roof of the pridal cavern. "But there's this duty and that duty and this responsibility and that one!" Aziza raises her right forepaw sweeping the pridal cavern "Do you know what it was tonight? Cub sitting. As if the cubs need watching when they sleep!" A hint of a smirk curves the young lionesses maw. "Though I suppose i may have gotten into a spot of trouble here or there when i was young." Ahhhh to be a cub again. When you're smaller its easier to avoid detection. Still, her gaze is bright and curious as it affixes itself firmly upon Eos. "Tell me, what is it you do out there?"
The darkie snorts amusedly at her counterpart's antics and animated explaination, taking the opportunity to settle herself down in a more comfortable sitting position with her prized tail curled protectively around her paws. "Oh, a little of this, a little of that... though exactly what would be telling." And of course, like any other teenager with a secret to tell, any attempt at retaining it to herself and not confiding in someone is short-lived at best as although a deadpan expression is attempted, it is quickly supplanted with a with perked ears, twinkling cyan eyes and excited chatter, albeit quietly as to avoid waking the surrounding felines. "Mostly just out - though there's a couple of young lions I've seen down by the Mwenyezi border show up every so often that are fun to stalk; finally some of mother's training is paying off. Why don't you join me sometime - I hardly think these scrawny balls of fluff are going to really go anywhere." Ah yes - gossip, ignorance, and irresponsibility. The defining elements of teenager life.
"Mwenyezi?" Now Eos has the full attention of Uru's not so little girl. Her bright, curious gaze fixates on the reddish-brown leonine. "Those are the forbidden lands!" Forbidden. How dramatic. But then again aren't all teenagers? "and LIONS? what do you have a boyfriend I don't know about Eos?" she inquires, her attention focused even MORE.
Forbidden indeed. Of course, this does little to put Eos off the region - indeed, it only increases it's lure to proverbial forbidden nectar tenfold. Seems to be an irresistible attraction for an unfortunately large swath of adolescents - the lure of the restricted and hidden. It's a wonder any of them survive to adulthood. "Wait - what?" Eos, whom had been quietly preening at mention of her own exploits and actions, sputters as she inexplicitly looses control of the discussion as it veers off in an unexpected direction. Boyfriend? Whom is she kidding! Mother would /kill/ her! "I don't know what you're talking about... I just follow them, that's all."
As children the graveyard held a dangerous allure - as adolescents the mwenyezi lands - what with the tales of fierce assasins, of rivers of bloods, of mothers turning on cubs and of spirits stalking lions in the night, now it holds that title. This is what instills terror and curiosity in the hearts of Pride Rocks youth. But Aziza had learned her lesson a very long time ago about these sort of places, and under her sunset-dappled fur she still bears the scars of that childhood misadventure. Still - while she wouldn't venture there herself- Eos's bravery has captured her imagination. "Tell me about these lions Eos! I've only ever seen the lands fleetingly from the border. " The young lioness shrugs her shoulders slightly, tail flickering fast behind her. A grin "I was just teasing about the boyfriend."
"What's there to tell?" Eos says quickly, attempting to recover and return her metaphorical paws to so called 'solid ground' after being derailed from her train of thought in such an unexpected fashion. "They're males. Loud, obnoxious, and utterly intolerable... I refuse to go near them." A pause. "Though I will admit they have cute butts, I'm bright enough to avoid getting too near them - Selene saw to that." Ah yes, Selene - Eos's sister, confidant, and (too often) caretaker. Eos received the adventurous spirit of her father, as well as his ambition... which requires someone to reign her in on occasion. Selene's solution to Eos's curiosity regarding the aforementioned young lads was to beat some sense into her - literally. "But what's this I hear? Is someone trying to pump me for information regarding lions? Looking for a date?" Eos teases.
then Eos had to go. It's a super short log but I liked it
