K'zhumi stalks across towards the chaos, enjoying the all together too rare sounds of laughter. As she walked a mischievious thought formulated, much like when she'd tickled Tahj awake. She slips out of her cloak, bending over to fill it with water she attempts to empty the entire thing over K'luha's head. A grin spreads over her face, yes it was good to see the tribe relaxing and playing together.

K'tahjha was distracted by her aunt, when her father unexpectedly barrelled into the spring, thoroughly drenching the girl. She stood dumbfounded for a brief moment before she begins giggling hysterically.

K'nahli · **08-22-2014, 12:36 PM**

The rowdiness from the group occupying the bath was increasing with every second that passed - and their energy was pressing lightly into K'nahli's nerves, her envy. It was becoming more and more difficult for her to ignore their innocent cries of joy as they all frolicked so happily together in the water, completely worry-free in the tribe's earned period of rest.
How she envied them. How she wished she could have nothing other than a physical injury to worry her like so many others had. They were so much more bearable when compared against what her own mind liked to torture her with. Her mind... it was truly her own worst enemy. She could seldom understand it's irrationality and yet it always took such a strong effect on her no matter how much she attempted to reason with it. She knew one thing, but still thought another.

It was during this period of thought and because of it, that she was unprepared. Because of her own self-loathing, that even K'luha's loud shout that sought to disrupt the Sagolii's entire eco-system didn't garner enough of her attention - and therefore, failed to see it coming.

*~SPLASH~*

The peculiar, yet unseen orb of water that had been intentionally targeted for the blue-haired girl crashed in to the side of her head so suddenly that the huntress couldn't help but let slip a very uncommon and girly gasp of surprise. Her maroon eyes were reminiscent of the moon when in full resplendence as they immediately shot open the second the water had engulfed her and glistened greatly as Azeyma's rays caught against the droplets that hung loosely from the dark lashes which framed the tops of her eyes. The girl's full and wide-eyed gaze was cast absently before her, lingering for a but a few moments in total shock. Her hair had darkened tremendously as it had quickly become saturated with water and left numerous, dark clumps of hair sticking thinly to the sides of her face and forehead, with a few peeking just low enough to enter the summit of her vision. Without even needing to look at herself, K'nahli could quickly tell that the water had drenched her thoroughly and swamped her as far down as her knees.
The girl slowly, with a motion of reluctance, brought her arms which had been thrown out away from the sides of her body, before her to take her first, official inspection of the damage. Her lips began to quiver subtly with incredulity as the cooling sensation that had washed over her quickly grew tepid in the direct light and began to seep deep into her skin with an unwelcomed comfort. Several blinks forced their way over a vibrant gaze of sheer disbelief before, at last.... the girl escaped her surprise and slowly transformed into a familiar figure that first announced itself with a deeply drawn frown and a piercingly, fearsome glare.

"K'LUHA, YOU IDIOT!!!" the girl screamed over to her childish aunt angrily as she delivered a contemptuous stare in the older miqo'te's direction. A light flush occupied her expression though her anger would surely have little effect on the woman. What other reaction could have been expected from the girl? This was exactly what she wanted!
For this reason precisely, K'nahli didn't even wait long enough to see if her aunt would respond before returning to inspect herself once again with a disgruntled hiss through her teeth.

"Ugh.." she groaned silently as she examined her drenched clothes with disdain. She flicked her arms a few times in an attempt to shake free the excess water though it was to no avail. She'd have to spend a few hours in these soggy clothes before Azeyma would relieve her of this plight.
The girl sighed bitterly as she submitted to a posture of defeat. While once upon a time she may have been just as guilty of such behaviour that her aunt so eagerly demonstrated, she was not in the mood for such jokes now. Rubbing the excess water from her lashes the girl gave a modest shake of her head. She stopped, however, as something at the corner of her eye begged for her attention; and after that whole scenario, she couldn't afford to not be vigilante of her fellow tribeskin.

Her eyes searched sideward as the mysterious, speeding figure which had caught her attention dashed it's way toward the oasis.

".....?"

K'yohko suddenly launched himself into the air, gaining an impressive height before coming crashing down into a deep section of the water once against, drowning all of the other occupants in the massive wave created from his entry. K'nahli's gaze grew a little wider once again with interest as she studied her father carefully as he re-emerged from the water. This was so.... not K'yohko. At least it hadn't been a side of him she had recognised for quite some time. She didn't believe such playfulness still existed in him. Slowly guiding her hand upward to mop the soaked bangs further away from her eyes, the oldest daughter watched her father carefully for a long moment in which she seemed to have briefly forgotten all of the grievances she retained within her heart for the nuhn. If not for those things... she might have been happy to see him like this. No, she would have been. Perhaps even, to some extent, she was even now... she just had trouble admitting it so openly to herself.

K'nahli drew her gaze away once again, staring at nowhere in particular in the sand as she searched her thoughts with a discontented look on her face.

Xha'li Moui · **08-22-2014, 06:44 PM**

Xha'li spluttered before laughing once more as Yohko's tidal wave rushed over him.Â Gasping between laughs he manged to get out "Healers Orders, have fun."Â Before jumping towards Yohko to create his own tidal wave to sweep over the tribe gathered around the oasis.

Twinflame · **08-22-2014, 09:08 PM**

"Dodge. I am dodging!" Kile crossed his arms with a huff. Now that he could see the waterbombs coming, there was no way K'luha would be able to get him.As she launched another of the water bombs towards him, he stepped to the side of it easily. He heard K'iara shouting at him, predicting her frustration. The low grating of her voice made her sound ferociously vengeful, and he turned wide-eyed to look at the woman, her skin wet and shining in the bright sun, hair as bright as his own, eyes shining blue at him. "What?"

She knocked him backwards. He hadn't even seen the blow coming. Stumbling two steps kept his footing, put put him directly int he path of K'luha's second water bomb, exploding over him and his immediate vicinity. At least it washed the mud off him, but it left him scowling. He shivered in the wind. "Ugh. Thanks, K'iara. At least I didn't get you wet on purpose."

The splashing and shouting continued as he glared at K'iara, his ears flat on his head. The whole tribe had regressed to children at play, it seemed. He was not surprised to hear K'nahli's angry shouting over everyone. He was a bit surprised that he didn't hear K'mih getting in on the fun, since being an overaged child was pretty much her them. Too far from the oasis to be struck by simple waves, K'ile was spared the diver's retribution.

He raised his gaze just in time to watch K'yohko Nunh rise from the water with that expression of static neutrality on his face. K'ile's ears stood up in surprise, blinking at the large man. Of all people, K'yohko? Really? And he managed to do it without any cheer at all, like a stone pretending to be a plant. K'ile looked over at Xha'li's laughter, watching the strangely pale halfblood moving to jump into the water at the Nunh. Brave, for a man that K'yohko was likely still mere seconds away from killing.

Also, perfect. K'ile smiled. "Okay."

He dropped low, gripped the ground with every toe and finger, tail lifting high behind him, and launched himself forward, kicking sand at K'iara as he bolted away. If there was one thing K'ile could do, it was run quickly. His arms extended out to his sides and his legs moved beneath him quickly and quietly, skirting around the oasis bolt-quick. K'luha was looking off to one side. K'yohko was looking at K'luha, standing in the deepest part of the water. And Xha'liu crashed down in the water, loudly, creating the perfect distraction.

K'ile's entrance was fast and slight, his small size working to his advantage. It was his greatest disadvantage compared to K'yohko, the largest man in the tribe. It wouldn't matter now, though. K'yohko might try to dodge Xha'li's wave, but he couldn't avoid both that and K'ile. The small Tia was sure his target was helpless.

"Bath time, kid!" K'ile threw himself at K'yohko's back, at full speed, hoping to knock the Nunh into the water and maybe even pin him there.

Nauta Lyehga · **08-23-2014, 01:09 AM**

K'luha flailed, her attention stolen from K'yohko to K'zhumi as she was drenched with water. She sputtered and laughed loudly, looking to K'zhumi coyly. She swung her tail up from the water to splash K'zhumi again, still grinning widely. Even K'nahli's yelling couldn't bring K'luha down. She only stuck her tongue out at K'nahli and laughed again. K'luha looked to her giggle niece and quickly splashed her over as well.

"Oooh, don't let down your guard Tahj or I'll get you too!" she grinned widely, splasing some more weak waves in Tahj's direction.

K'yohko looked coolly to Xha'li, although his usual serious expression tinged on something less tense. Have fun? Was that what they were supposed to be doing? Yohko didn't have too much time to think on it as Xha'li jumped towards him and drenched K'yohko in another wave. The Nunh sputtered and pushed his hair back from his face again, a small smile tugging on his lips. It never seemed to be more than the faintest of smiles, but it was there. K'yohko had made strides of progress in his tolerance of Xha'li's presence. He had long since stopped wanting to kill the man, and even admitted to himself he had been erroneous in his judgment at first. He had let his grief for his daughter's exile cloud his mind, but he accepted now that it was wrong to judge Xha'li for a thing he was uninvolved with.

Yohko thought to perhaps splash the outsider with another wave, but something else caught his attention. K'yohko turned at the sound of running feet, curious to what was running towards him so quickly. The flaming red hair caught his attention first as K'ile launched himself with a cry at the nunh. Yohko was hit with a loud 'oof' although K'ile would find himself tackling K'yohko's front side rather than his back.

At first K'yohko was unsure what hit his face, but it left a stinging sensation and dazed him as his body was throw below the water. He blinked a few times as he was submerged, feeling pinned down by a weight atop his own body. The vaguely recognized the out of focus face and red hair, but allowed the other to hold him down for the moment. He was still trying to figure out if K'ile's head had collided with his own or not.

K'iara frowned to K'ile, happy she'd knocked him into the water rather than herself. To avoid any further splashing, the huntress yelped and quickly scrambled back over behind K'nahli and the cards. She peered over the carts, surprised to catch the tail end of K'ile's successful tackling of the nunh.

Like K'iara, K'luha was a bit surprised to see K'ile tackle K'yohko. She however, was simply happy he'd come to the water. She chuckled lightly and splashed towards Tahj and K'zhumi again.

Twinflame · **08-23-2014, 01:20 AM**

K'ile Tia's face hurt inexplicably, and he hadn't expected to find himself pinning K'yohko face-up. He wasn't going to let himself pause in confusion, however. He needed to secure his advantage while his still had it. The much smaller Tia stradled K'yohko's waist, pinning the man's large legs with his feet, pushing his wrists down in the water. K'yohko could maybe sit up far enough to breathe, but the need to do so would help K'ile keep him pinned. Hopefully.

Nauta Lyehga · **08-23-2014, 01:25 AM**

The difference in their size was almost amusing. K'yohko wasn't a miq'ote to judge the on the size of a person but, K'ile could barely stretch himself the length of K'yohko's body. The nunh watched with a vague interest. Just what was K'ile trying to do anyway? He couldn't understand it.

K'yohko remained still, allowing the other to pin him down completely, but did not struggle or try to breath. His eyes shimmered in a surprisingly pretty way, the color of the water making them shine more brightly than they ever had before.

It was sort of strange. His lungs ached for breath, and although it was a mere movement away, he didn't move for it immediately. There was a odd serenity about feeling the water's across all of his skin. In a way, it almost felt like a warm embrace. His eyes closed for a moment, taking in the moment even as his lungs burned. Yohko lingered beneath the water, longer than he ought to. And for a moment, his face slipped an earnest smile.

Without warning, K'yohko sat up abruptly and pushed his face above the water to gasp for breath. His eyes opened again and he shook his head off a little bit, raising an ear and a tail at K'ile.

Twinflame · **08-23-2014, 03:08 AM**

K'ile kept K'yohko pinned at his hips and all four limbs, bending down so his face was close to the Nunh's face. He smiled broadly, and tried to speak in a tone of fake confidence, knowing every else could hear. "Just saving you from being the center of attention. Thought that might be a bit much for shy little Yohko. It's nice to see you out playing the water with the other kids for a change, though."

Nauta Lyehga · **08-23-2014, 03:33 AM**

Yohko snorted lightly, letting his other brow raise at K'ile's rather strange behavior. It had been a very long time since he'd been shy in such a way. Although, he supposed he never really stopped being shy. Simply, now he preferred to be alone or with his grandmother. Few others had anything worthwhile to say, and he found K'ile's usual hatred of him tiresome. K'nahli's too, for that matter. Everyone's constant judgment and hatred grew tiresome, and there was refuge to be found alone or with K'takka at least.

Violet eyes glanced back up towards K'ile, glimmering quietly in the afternoon sun. He held a quiet expression that matched his eyes, although the expression was somehow different than his usual one. Yohko pushed his head forward, pushing his forehead to press against K'ile's until their faces were uncomfortably close. Incredibly uncomfortably closer particularly in the lip region.

"Hey." Yohko murmured in a light whisper, his ears flicking a bit. He was banking on the fact that this was an uncomfortable position for both of them to get K'ile to move.

Twinflame · **08-23-2014, 04:00 AM**

K'ile knew this game. He'd plaid it once or twice on Yohko when they were kids, back in the one or two years of his life when K'ile had actually been bigger than Yohko. Of course, usually it was just K'ile pinning Yohko down and forcing the shy kid to tolerate someone else in his personal space. Yohko would always go crying back to his mother, and then K'ile would get scolded. But not here. This was Yohko trying to outplay him.

"Hey, where'd shy little Yohko go? You aren't going to beat me, you know?" K'ile's smile stretched. One of his ears twitched to free some water droplets from his fur. He turned his face sideways and leaned forward, so their cheeks were along side of each other, so his breath was brushing the side of K'yohko's head. "But if you want," He extended himself over K'yohko's body, so he could speak directly into the Nunh's ear. "After I beat you in the challenge in a few days," His tail lifted and swung back and forth above them. He dropped his voice low, so low, so maybe even Yohko wouldn't even be able to hear it.

"I can be your Nunh, and you can be one of my women..."

Clover · **08-23-2014, 04:15 AM**

From a certain distance, a pink haired miqo'teÂ had been observing the joyfulÂ scene. Her fatherÂ wasÂ playing in the water, leaving some of the weights he'd been carrying behind. It wasÂ a very unusual, yet very beautiful sight. K'ile's intervention didn't feel as nice, however; it erasedÂ K'mih's smile and made her heart pound faster. Was K'ile planning to drown the Nunh? Why wasn't her father coming out of the water yet...?

After seconds that felt like ages, the sensationÂ of relief when her father's face emerged to breathe still left her weak. She wanted to think that K'yohko'd had everything under control, that he'd simplyÂ allowed K'ile to do as he pleased in order to humour him. The Nunh was still stronger, wasn't he?

K'mih smiled again, albeit lightly, and approached the loneÂ figure of her sister. K'nahli had been observing the scene as well, apparently.

"K'nahli..." she called her, warmly as she always did. Her sisterÂ had been too serious from the moving; perhaps she needed to relax like her father was doing.Â "Why don't we bathe with them too?"

There'd been a brush of shyness in that last sentence. K'mih's unhealthy weakness forÂ the NunhÂ wasn't easy to hide. That had been, in fact, the main reason why she preferred her elder sister to come with her.

Before K'nahli had any chance to reply, something else demanded K'mih's full attention. Her eyes grew wider at the sight of K'ile and K'yohko moving in too close, closer than it was safe. Closer than she'd ever been. Unconsciously, she tightened her fist.

Ah...

What was that feeling twitching in her stomach...?

[...............]

K'rahto Tia had been a bit too far from the springs to get wet. He did hear the splashes, the laugher, and the complaints. For a miqo'te who enjoyed the peace of silence and who had so much difficulty in the art of having fun, all the ruckus was nothing short of an annoyance. The only good side was that, judging from her angry yell, he knew K'nahli wasn't planning to get into those damn springs. The mere thought of another Tia looking at her was maddening, and there was no way K'rahto could even approach the place without raising questions about his true intentions.

Nauta Lyehga · **08-23-2014, 04:20 AM**

Yohko was faintly irked at the lack of intended response. K'ile was supposed to back off, not get closer. The nunh's eyes followed K'ile's form as he leaned over lightly, pressing their cheeks uncomfortably together. Really, the feeling wasn't that foreign to K'yohko but it was a little strange coming from K'ile. Not to mention his hot breath was faintly irritating K'yohko's head until he wanted to scratch at it. Ah, really. It was itchy now.

K'yohko's ears twitched lightly as K'ile tried to whisper into them. The content of the whispers earned a genuine snort from K'yohko. And also a screech from K'luha.

"WHAT?!" K'luha had notoriously obnoxiously good hearing. All she needed to hear was the first part of the whisper to get angry. She was going to punch K'ile the second he got close enough to her do to so. He wasn't worth breaking her hip again, again.

K'yohko on the other hand, took the comment in stride. He flicked his ear, glancing past K'ile when he heard a familiar screech.

"Some people might be jealous of that offer." K'yohko sighed softly. He twitched his gaze back to K'ile and abruptly threw his massive weight to the right, rolling them both over until K'yohko had K'ile pinned to the ground instead. This sort of thing stopped being embarrassing a very long time ago after all. K'yohko had more experience with it than K'ile had after all. But it was still a cute attempt to fluster the Nunh. While flipping them both over, it was an excellent moment to exact a bit of revenge while their heads were underwater and no one could see it. Yohko pressed his figure and his head forward, letting his lips meet the other's for a brief moment before biting down lightly on the other's bottom lip and then pulling away to the surface all together.

K'yohko sat up on K'ile's lap, this time straddling the other before pushing back his longer hair from his face.

"If that's what you were so upset about all this time, my tent is always open." K'yohko retorted quietly, but flatly before he stood up from K'ile entirely and shook out his hair.

K'luha looked entirely pissed and somewhat upset over the entire venture, but looked to Tahj instead and opened her arms as if she wanted her niece to hug her.

Twinflame · **08-23-2014, 04:32 AM**

K'ile lay dazed in the water. His body was still heavy with the weight of K'yohko's body slamming down on him, reeling with the disorientation of being thrown over and submerged. His body ached in the various places that Yohko had grabbed and held him, not the least of which being his hips. That particular ache went all the way through to his tail, with shivered in the water. He sat up by necessity, so that he wouldn't drown, but stared straight down at the water in front of him. His body was more alive with remembrances of Yohko's skin than it was with the feeling of his own movement.

That was not the reaction he had expected. At all. Damn Yohko. K'ile bit his bottom lip to try and overwhelm the lingering sensation of Yohko's teeth. Maybe K'ile should've kissed him first, so it couldn't be turned around on him, but it was too late for that. Yohko had won. This time.

K'ile sat silent, defeated. And he was even more wet now. His ears twitched above his head.

Izmina · **08-23-2014, 04:51 AM**

K'tahjha grins as she watched the two males romping in the springs. She was briefly concerned when her father was under the water and frankly astonished and wide eyed as the got closer than most people would find comfortable. Her attention was drawn away from the play fighting males by her aunt's asking for a hug, which Tahj easily and happily obliged. Soaked to the skin but the most relaxed and happy she could remember being since she lost her mother, Tahj snuggles into K'luha's arms.

Xha'li Moui · **08-23-2014, 11:08 AM**

Xha'li sat off to the side as he watched the antics of K'ile and K'yohko, thoughts drifting back to his village and his twin Xha'to.Â As his thoughts drifted his tail swayed to his left, the tip twitching around as if looking for something, while the joy that had been on his face moments before became less pronounced, tempered by a deep seeded loneliness, "I wonder how your doing my twin, do you miss me as much as I miss you?"Â he whispered softly.
