Eyes slowly blinking open, Tivoli let out a light roar as she yawned; the morning sun was just barely seeping into their den, dancing beautifully around her. As she looked out at the grassland around her, she could see the faint sparkle of the dew left on the grasses, as well as the gentle mist that seemed to hover just over the ground. She rolled on her back, stretching her claws out as she did, soon returning to her original resting position. Ah, if only she could spend every day like this - blissfully enjoying the best parts of life.
Her tail shifted slightly to the side, which made her aware that she was alone this morning in their den. She wasn’t necessarily sad about this fact - of course, mornings were always nicer when they began with Kaito, but she assumed he must have had business to attend to, either an early hunt or something of the like. She wondered if she was needed for such a task - she hadn’t talked to the other hunters in her clan in awhile, she hoped that she wasn’t letting them down by being somewhat secluded as of late.
She hadn’t necessarily intentionally kept herself from visiting with her fellow members - she had just felt so at peace being out and enjoying the world around her by herself and with Kaito that she hadn’t really thought of going and being around anyone else. It was the former rogue in her popping up, she knew, and she also knew that she would need to socialize soon to remain a good clan member. She loved her pride, she did, but growing up rogue had definitely left its mark on her.

As she soared gently on the warm air, Ho-oh kept her eyes closed, feeling the warm air rush over her face. At this height, she wasn’t worried about another predator; she was one of the largest air predators around, and there was no chance a land predator would be able to reach her. Below, everything was so small, and none of it seemed to matter. Not right now, and certainly not to her. Though it was still early morning, Ho-oh had already feasted on two field mice just after dawn, and had contented herself to enjoying some alone time high in the sky.

Feeling her feathers move and adjust to sudden gusts, Ho-oh took a moment to open her eyes and scan the ground below. At this hour, there wasn’t too much movement - the more nocturnal creatures were recently sleeping, and the diurnal were only just opening their eyes. She tended to sleep whenever she got the chance, not really subscribing to either the day or the night. In her opinion, there were too many good aspects to both that she didn’t want to have to choose. This day, however, she had stayed up straight through the sunrise, which was partially how she had found two quick meals so soon after the sun had risen. She was starting to tire because of this, and wondered if she really could nap while flying. Even just closing her eyes for a few moments provided some relief, and as long as she stayed at this height, she shouldn’t have any problems.
Looking around below, she didn’t see anything that seemed like it could affect her; there was a small outcropping of rocks, but it was way too far away to matter. From down there, she probably only appeared to be a small speck against the open blue sky.
