That his movement or demanding tone had woken anybody else was completely lost on Haiba, he stayed focused on Miyako. Usually when they had a babysitter, it was Grandma or Grandpa or Grandma and Grandpa. Or Grandpa Unyezi, or Grandma Nerit, or Grandpa Unyezi and Grandma Nerit. Or..
Wait, cousin?
He knew what an aunt was, mostly because of his mother's siblings her one sister was the easiest to keep track of. Aunt Hodari. Uncles whoever were way more confusing because there were .. three of them? He couldn't remember.
"I'm Haiba," he answered finally, then turned himself around to face his siblings with Miyako, "And that's Faraji, Matumaini, Maalum, Kuimba aaaand Sanaa."
He didn't even try to gesture to each as he rattled off names.
"Sanaa is the girl."

At the mention of his name, Faraji sat up and offered a polite nod, though he was still warily watching their newfound cousin with interest and suspicion. He didn't suppose their mother would leave them in the hands of one she wouldn't trust, however, so he did make some small effort to approach, keeping well out of arms reach just as a last precaution. He doubted someone of her size would rely on a simple grab regardless.
"Miyako." He spoke aloud, getting the name recited to memory as he considered her position, "You offered to babysit?" He wasn't sure if she was doing it to be nice, or maybe she wanted to get to know them. He smiled, "Do you have children of your own?" Maybe, just maybe, she would have experience with dealing with them, and Faraji could mrch himself over to go back to sleep.

"So you're a hunter?" he asked, tilting his head. Haiba was pretty good at paying attention to lessons, but hunters had been especially emphasized since that was actually the bulk of the work done by the low class and that was what he, his brothers and sister would be when they grew up. Hunting didn't seem so bad, but the lessons had been designed that way.
Then he blinked when she asked if he could get all of them at once, and turned back to his siblings. He.. he probably could wake them all up at once but that wasn't what he wanted. Putting on a serious face, he got back to his feet and inched closer and closer to the group, trying to guess if it was Matumaini, Maalum, Kuimba or Sanaa who was awake.
He was pretty sure it wasn't Sanaa, so he focused on his brothers.. but he wasn't moving nearly as quietly as he thought.

"Wow, really?" Haiba asked, impressed when Miyako said she was actually a hunt leader and not just a huntress. He really liked the idea of being able to take charge, but unfortunately that wasn't where his future was and her question about it made him frown.
"I can't be anything, Grandpa Unyezi and Grandma Nerit are already in charge of the slaves," he said. And that was really as far as any slave could go so that was all he had. It was hard to imagine the low class without Unyezi and Nerit, but it was also hard to imagine himself as a dad to all of them. That was Unyezi's rank, Slave Father..
The growl distracted him, and then Miyako challenged him to wake them all up.. and it was a perfect distraction. He grinned and turned on his siblings, thinking carefully about where to aim before he launched himself into the pile of cubs to wake everybody up all at once. He wasn't big enough to really land on everybody, but he flailed enough that everybody would feel it.
(( Last call for replies from cubs before Astoria can wrap it up for us! ))
