Discovery ((OPEN AND ACCEPTING))

[AyanaN]

Tarja listened attentively, smiling at several parts. Afterwards, he took a minute to think. "Wow..." he purred eventually.

[pika.girl]

"Wait, you want kits?" Iceheart would ask, a little taken aback.

[AyanaN]

Tarja thought about it, then slowly nodded. "Actually...yea, I do..."

[pika.girl]

Iceheart would scramble out of Tarja's grasp, afterward looking at him. Her icy eyes would have a look of horror, as she ran off out of the cave. She needed to hunt to get her mind off of this.

[AyanaN]

Tarja was shocked, and a little hurt by her reaction, but he let her be, instead heading out towards the stream, standing near its edge. "....Why do I hate water so much..." he wondered, and started to think back...

[pika.girl]

Iceheart would return, ten dead mice dangling from their tales in her jaws. She'd drop them near Tarja. "You're keeping your side of the bet, and I'm watching you do it..." she'd say, smiling softly.

[AyanaN]

Tarja was so startled by her sudden appearance that his front paws slipped into the stream, and that's when he freaked. He leapt straight up in the air, fur spiked out to the max. Once he landed on the shore, he crouched down, eyes wide and fearful as his chest moved rapidly.

[pika.girl]

"Tarja, calm down... It's just the stream..." Iceheart would say cautiously, but somehow her words would comfort Tarja.

[AyanaN]

Tarja calmed down slowly, his fur eventually flattening. "...I really hate water....." he said softly.

[pika.girl]

"Why...?" Iceheart would ask. She'd be looking at his now wet front paws, and walking up to him. "Is the big bad tom really afraid of water?" she'd mimic Whitefang's voice.
