Nyota watched with excitement as more cubs came into view, mostly white but with pale markings. It was a far cry from her own pelt which was mostly black, but she liked the contrast. It would be easy to tell who was from which family, at least! Three of the siblings moved forward with the young male at the forefront. The twins hung back a bit which was funny to her. Did they think she was going to attack them?
"Hi," she said, addressing Helios with a grin. "Thanks. Do your sisters think I'm gonna pounce them or something?" she added with a little giggle. She just might, but only if they wanted to play!
Jioni glanced away from her daughter as Kahini and Rio moved to stand near her. The question made her chuckle softly and roll her eyes fondly towards Nyota.
"It's a pawful, to be sure, but one that I am enjoying. Now that they're old enough to leave the den it's not as bad." She had been going a bit stir-crazy when they had been nursing, eager to get out of the den and stretch her legs. Now it was hard to keep tabs on all of them at once but at least she could get some fresh air in the process.

"Mm. I have no doubt they'll be well taken care of here," Jioni said with a nod of agreement. They had been blessed to be born in the upper-middle class, not quite as high as Jioni herself but high enough that they would have a good, easy life ahead of them. She would have loved them just as much if they had been born slaves but the Great Lion had smiled upon them during their births.
"It will be interesting to watch them all grow. They were born so close together," she murmured, watching as her dark daughter interacted with Kahini's paler cubs.
Nyota peeked around Helios' legs to the two cubs and grinned at them broadly. Hopefully it wasn't too big of a grin, though. She didn't want to startle them!
"Hi," she said as the last cub introduced herself. "Esme, Helios, and Europa. More names to remember...but more friends to play with, too!" She lowered herself to the ground a bit, her rump in the air, tail wiggling back and forth.
"You guys wanna play?"

As Kahini and Rio agreed, Jioni gave a little nod to the cubs who were clearly already excited about the chance of swimming. "Very well. We can go," she said with a smile. She remembered what it was like to be a cub, finding everything exciting and new. In a few hours they'd be zonked out snoozing in the den, but for now it seemed as though they had unlimited energy.
"Yesssssssssss," Nyota said, jumping around in delight before turning to grin at her two companions. Helios and Esme were already challenging her to a race and she couldn't possibly say no, so with a laugh and a 'can't catch me!' she was off into the underbrush, twisting and tripping and avoiding as many branches and rocks as she could. She was SO gonna win!
Jioni chuckled softly but took up the rear after the cubs and the other two adults, glad that they seemed to hit it off so well.
