It never failed to amaze how many lions really lived in the Brook, especially when they really only seemed to gather together when there was a meeting or a hunt like this. She was somewhat amused as she realized how many of them were here to bring down one little antelope, but at least this should be a relatively easy hunt, which was nice. They wouldn't be able to feed the whole pride off of it, though, which wasn't. Well, no doubt there would be other hunts later, and for now she should just focus on this one to make sure it went well.

July Y13
Summer
Summer is in full swing now, with clear skies, warm nights, and ample sunshine! As such, the deserts begin to grow dry, the shores remain a blissful escape, the north is spared with cooling winds, and humidity continues to rise in the jungle. Rain and storms are long forgotten troubles by now, which is both a virtue and a vice during the heat of the season.

Spiritus is genderfluid. The pronouns used in each thread are the pronouns they feel at the time. Unless told otherwise, other lions are likely to consider them male. In OOC, "He/They" is perfectly fine!

If one's mind was open enough, one could realize they were never too old for a lesson from a parent. It almost felt like he had shrunk back down to size and was being taught as a cub again. And while most would grimace at the thought, Castus enjoyed it. It brought them closer as parent / child. Nodding carefully he would listen to Caligula as he spoke. Then when the hunt kicked off he had to swallow his hesitation. The unwillingness to disappoint his father overcame his fear of scaring or harming the creature. And he moved in opposite motion with surprising grace. And soon they had herded it in towards the one who would be waiting to seize it. His chest and sides heaved with heavy breath, he could not hide the visible wince on his face hearing the creature cry out and then suddenly stop. Glancing at Caligula seeking his approval eagerly before he laid down to catch his breath. Eventually, sleep would overcome him from exhausted. He was not used to exerting this much energy. |
Castus' NPC companions:
-- Mouse "Chiku"
-- Crested Barbet Bird "Duni"

Quickly others arrived and Bronx gave a joyful smile towards them. Ever the one to entertain the masses he enjoyed the attention. And then Castus arrived to his surprise but was quickly brought into a lesson by Caligula. Oh maybe he was working on that issue he had? Bronx turned to look around at those gathered that had to hide a snicker. That poor little gazelle, it didn't stand a freakin chance!
Moving into a position he launched his attack chasing it toward whoever was in reach and better position to tackle it. Mindful to keep out of the way of Castus and Caligula. And eventually, with a strangled cry, they succeeded. Panting heavily Bronx chuckled and then turned to look at Seraphiel, this was hardly a meal for them. He wanted something bigger... so with a glance back, he moved outwards towards the watering hole to try his luck there.

Caligula moved with ease as he sought to help herd the prey animal. He kept an eye on his son to make certain that he was able to keep up. Caligula performed the sharp turns that would have the animal turning the way he wanted it to go. And Castus was there to keep it cut off from the other side.
Eventually the animal was slain and he couldn't help but notice how his son had winced at the sound. Even so he gave the boy a proud smile. "You did great." He said as he moved to attempt to lightly brush against the grey male. "See? It is not so hard after all when you have a team to work with."
And then his exhausted son slipped into sleep. Caligula smiled and watched him briefly before silently slipping away to allow him to rest up. This meal was a small one so he didn't bother trying to get any of it. There was enough in the cache that he could grab something quick to give his cubs.

As she'd guessed, her presence wasn't needed in this hunt, but still she would stick around because that was the right thing to do to help out. Let it not be said she had ever refused to help family, which was what everyone in the brook was, blood related or not.
Their success was a given, and like many others she opted not to take a meal from it, for she could go a bit longer without eating and wanted to let some of the newer and younger faces have at their spoils. They had earned it, she thought. Besides, she had herbs to tend to.

It was a simple hunt, one where his presence wasn't much needed, but he would always lend a paw in these things until he could no longer serve the pride. He also wouldn't take part in the catch, because while there was enough for one or two others to eat from it and be filled, he knew he needed more to power his large frame. So he followed Bronx after catching his eye, thinking the man had an idea of where they could go look for another meal. Either that or he was just going to wander about, which was fine by him as well.

As she'd expected, the gazelle wasn't hard to bring down, but it was still good experience nonetheless. She hadn't been on as many hunts as some of those around her, and so she knew there were still plenty of things for her to learn.
Typically, she would share a meal with the rest of the pride, but with there not being a whole lot to go around she decided not to this time. Might as well leave it in case someone was really hungry. She also thought it might not hurt to see if there was anything else nearby they could potentially go after, while they were all gathered.

be, just be -- chaos calls, just breathe
A dik-dik was truly a pathetically small meal for the entire pride, but she supposed that everything they added was something else in the cache- and all of that led to a full pride, right? Eisa crept closer, hoping that when she had rubbed against the tree, her scent would remain concealed, and it seemed to be working! She aimed to creep around, closer and closer...
When the signal was given, the pride converged on the poor creature rapidly, giving it no chance of escape. It was brought down fairly quickly, and she still managed to smile. Well, it wasn't much but it was something.

A dikdik was such a small creature and so many had gathered that one in the party was sent forward for the kill. Hanging back, the pink lioness just watched. There was no need to get herself involved in this hunt further or else the poor animal would end up like string cheese. Flicking her ear as the cry of the animal as life escaped its form, she shook her head. Hopefully the hunt that she was planning would bring a better meal for the large pride. Pink gaze looked around as some left and even one who fell asleep which caused her to raise a brow. Shaking her head, she decided to take her leave. She had some planning to do.
