Tau walked into the Hook, huffing. "Bastard didn't even try to wait for us." He sighed, but continued walking, all the while keeping Astennu balanced on his back. But then he heard a roar. Alibaster's roar. Realizing what that meant, he leaned over to Baneth. "Alibaster won. He's king now." But then he paused, thinking a moment, before adding quietly, "Bane, if he's badly injured... this could be our chance. I know that liar isn't really going to let me be king. But if he's injured..."

Baneth followed Tau into the Hook, looking back every few moments to make sure the others were keeping up. She snorted at Tau's words, knowing Alibaster must have been too impatient to wait. However, when the leopon's roar filled the air, her mate turned to her. Baneth's yellow eyes widened at what Tau was mentioning... was he really planning on doing this?
"Tau... do you really mean..?" she replied, her eyes still wide. Was he serious? Would Tau risk his life to claim position as king? Would he be able to win? Baneth pursed her lips as she thought the idea over, finally looking back up to him after a moment. "Would I be able to help? Or would it just be the two of you?" she asked, her tone more serious and confident this time around.

Tau had just smiled at his son, murmuring, "To our new home." But as Baneth seemed to realize just what he was planning, he leaned in closer, whispering, "Well, I... I'd like your help, but it's not a good idea, with you being pregnant and all." He sighed a little, frowning. "But Bane, just think. Our own pride. I... I know leopards are usually solitary, but, well... I would love to have you as my queen. We could be the dominant pair of Clapperclaw." He grinned and nuzzled her. "I don't trust Alibaster, anyway. He promised we'd rule together, but I know he's lying. What else could he be lying about? I want a safe home for us to raise our family. A pride to protect us, and no one to betray us."

"But are you well enough? I can fight, no matter how swollen my belly is," she said, chuckling a bit at the last words. It was true; Baneth would fight on her mate's side no matter her condition. At his mention of her becoming a queen, however, her mouth nearly watered at the idea. It was so enticing, so tempting! Baneth smirked, glancing towards Softwood.
"I say we go for it," she murmured, a mischievous look on her face.

Tau smiled, though he was rather worried for Baneth. He didn't want anything to happen to her or their cubs. He still didn't know for sure if he truly loved her, as it was just in his nature to be flirty and cuddly, but he did care deeply for her, and anyway, he had no problems with pretending that he knew his feelings for sure. "Great. Just be careful, okay?" He gently licked her cheek, then grinned. "I love you." He then headed off toward Softwood, nervous, but excited for the incoming battle.

Health: 20/20 Last Ate: Day 9 Adeleke was just riding along on Baneth's back, trying to calm her nerves. She was scared, but at least being cuddled into her mother's fur helped to relax her. But then her ears perked and she seemed to notice her parents plotting something, and she snuggled into her mother's fur. "Mommy, what's happening?" ((Bane, feel free to move to Softwood and respond to Adeleke there. ))

Nuru padded along, still feeling rather ditzy. What had gotten into her back there? One moment they were all swimming together, and the next thing she knows, she's laying on her back all alone! Jeez, maybe there was something in those waters.
She was quickly jolted out of her thoughts when she found Solluxander, alone and hiding under a few ferns. "Oh my god, Sollux!" She cried, quickly going to him and curling around the shaking cub. She would've thought Khalfani would have looked after him, at least! Or noticed they weren't there!
The angry female stood, picking her son up in her mouth. She was going to find Khalfani, get something to eat, and get back to Ayomide. She should've been back a long time ago.
