there's something in the way the caverns yawn above her head that fascinates her. stalactites point down at her like stony fangs, water dripping from their upside down peaks like saliva from some great beast. as frightening a thought it is to walk into the jaws of the unknown, desdemona continues onward, her steps a steady rhythm of — one two three four one two three four. the drumbeat of her small paws echoes out into the emptiness surrounding her and the calico cat takes finally takes pause, narrowed eyes widening to moons as they catch a gleam of something in front of her. carefully, she reaches out, sweeping aside a dull rock to reveal something much more precious. the final stretches of moonlight from a skylight in the top of the cave catch the gem and desdemona manages a resigned chirp of interest, leaning forward to observe the curious jewel more closely.

+5 Study the landscape of an area
Vasilis had yet to be this deep within the chambers before. His eyes scanned and combed each entryway that he was able to squeeze himself into. He stopped to take a breath - how long had he been down under the earth like this? One hour? Maybe two?? Who knew at this point but now that he got this far down he started to look about the area. There were so many different rocks on the ground that it made him wonder why?
Had the ceiling collapsed at one point? HAd the walls caved down on themselves? He was too busy looking at each rock seeing if it fit like a puzzle against the wall to notice that, well, he wasn't alone inside the chambers. The moonlight was enough to offer him some leeway but not enough to really spot her out, it wasn't until she juggled whatever was in her paws - to have it reflect off what little light was offered inside the chamber, to make him turn to look at his left. "AH! My gods....you scared the crap out of me!" he huffed loudly as he stepped to the side. Calming himself down he looked at the other who held something in her paws @Desdemona "I see this place has captured your attention as well." he whispered against the darkness. His whisky like voice echoed off the walls as his butt sits against the ground below.

her gaze danced across the cool cavernous floor, searching for the twinkle of another of her soon to be precious stones. as hyper focused as she was, she failed to notice the sound of paws coming treading towards her and when the stranger exclaimed his shock, desdemona reacted instead. the lioness flinched, paws nearly leaving the ground as she turned to face the sound of his voice. the hair along her spine trembled with energy, back arcing like a cat scorned. amber eyes screwed tightly to focus on the intruding lion, giving the larger feline an obvious once over with a rather unhappy glare.
her company seemed to find his wits quicker than she did, murmuring out into the darkness between them about the caverns. fur still ruffled, desdemona's tail lashes and she shrugs a speckled shoulder but remembers to keep the precious gem close to her.
@Vasilis
you'd think someone your size would make more noise,she jabbed, finding it easier to deflect than to announce her very apparent surprise.

diamonds are a girls best friend."her quarry clatters audibly at her paws as if to make a point. well, that's what had her attention, but what of him? he takes a seat before her and desdemona plays with the idea of ducking off to find more jewels, but wonders if he knows more of what's around.
what's your excuse?maybe he was just as interested in pretty gleaming rocks as she was, or maybe he had other reasons for why this place happened to steal away his attention.

He laughed at her 'diamonds are a girl's best friend' remark. "One could argue that one my lady." he teased with a smile. Vasilis touches the wall again and places a rock that seemed to fit perfectly within a location just in reach. "Me? Oh well, honestly I am exploring deeper in the caverns here. After the month I've had I wanted to do some digging around Amaryllis to see what else I could find." plus it would be good to do this just in case a war broke out - he could tell his people where to go. He sits back upright, his body moving to stand up on all four legs.
Honeydew's eyes bounce to where she was "That is a beautiful stone there. I'd keep it close. " who knew what others would do to obtain something so pretty - but Vasilis? No not him. Sure it was something beautiful to look at but he didn't necessarily want something of that nature. "Plus I find locations like this interesting - who knows what the gods left behind." he tells her. Ahh crap, he didn't introduce himself. "Diuris Yeager." he bows his head to @Desdemona.

his laughter rattled off the cavern walls and desdemona eases slightly at his teasing, the fur along her shoulders falling flat. the golden man actually seems quite polite— good-natured, even. nothing like many of the roaring, testosterone driven brutes she's come across on her travels.
being fairly new to these lands ( amayrllis, was it? ), desdemona hadn't done much exploring, but with the chambers as the first stop on her self-guided tour, with its wondrous jewels and echoing corridors, she was sure there were a lot more surprises in store for her. it seems that he is also interested in what lies deep within the darkness and that earns a small glimmer of a smile from the spotted cat before she turns back to her diamond, enamored.
before long, there's a name spout into the air between them and his courtesies cause a brief flicker of surprise to tug at her pale face.meat shield partner along? safety in numbers, right?
@Vasilis
really? tell me what more i could possibly want,desdemona could already rattle off a few things that she would like in comparison to pretty rocks, but she's curious to hear his answer.

that makes two of us then.

desdemona.she offers with a drawl and a one sided grin, a pearly fang twinkling like the many glorious lights around them.
i think i could fit you into my exploration, diuris,the lioness juggles her diamond, pressing it firmly towards the cavernous wall close to them. she would certainly be back for it.
if you're not too worried about what the gods may have left behind.the challenge rolls off her tongue as smooth as silk. desdemona isn't convinced there's much more hiding in the gloom, but there's something tugging her paws onward — and if there is something lurking, why not take a

"Life is a Luxury, my lady. I couldn't say what you may want but I know from experience that most lionesses want security, love, respect, and a home to call their own over such a diamond as that." he shrugged. She seemed to be more at ease and he watched her move her stone. "Lady @Desdemona it is but a pleasure". He bows his crown to her for a moment before stepping aside.
his laugh echoed again before shrugged shoulders moved up and down. "I do not fear what they left behind, no, I am simply curious IF they dared to leave it behind." Gods tend to be fickle over their artifacts right? "And good, I am glad you could fit me in." his eyes shift and he moves away from the wall, his toes combing across the stone beneath before moving throughout the space between them but keeping respectfully away from her bubble as he explored.
