Kjaku participating; Enemine
Prompt response; "Well friend, what I believe to be the true meaning of life is..to die. Prepare for the afterlife and die to grand explosive outing so that your afterlife is as pleasurable as can be." The Kjaku puffed up his wings slightly as he smirked. "One such as myself of course, the afterlife must be paved with gold and treasure, so my meaning of life is to collect and gather for my eventual grave as a passage into the afterworld of my dreams." Enemine's eyes seemed to sparkle in the moonlight, much like the gems and gold he wished to pave his grave. "But the true meaning of life is up to you, and what you choose to take with you into the land of the deceased."

prompt response; Alajax stared at the Kjaku, then taking her head and staring at the stars "I guess our purpose is up to what you make of it. There is no set purpose for anyone, not everyone is the same and so everyone has a different purpose in life."

Prompt response;
Startled, I drop my newly found flowers and quickly rush to pick them up again.
"Uh," I say, "how come you're creeping about in the bushes? You scare people like that."
I notice the stranger frown and look away.
"Hey, it's alright! Just don't do that again, please," I say quickly, "what did you ask?"
"What's the purpose of life?" he replies.
"Ah," I pause, "it's whatever you want it to be."
"But how do you decide what you want then?" he asks. I sit on the damp grass and look up at the moon, patting the earth next to me to invite him over.
"What makes you happiest?" I ask.
"Learning about things, I want the answer to everything," he smiles.
"Then make your purpose to learn everything," I shrug.
"Well, thanks!" he says happily. We watch the moonlit treeline in silence.
"Just wondering," he whispers, "what happens when you reach your purpose? Like if I knew everything."
"I don't know," I mumble, "make a new one?"
"What if nothing made you happy?" he tilts his head.
"Then you find something that makes you happy," I say.
"What's your purpose in life?" the stranger asks.
"I'm not sure," I look at him, "I guess making others happy."
"That's nice of you," he says, "well that's all I wanted to know, see you later good fellow!"

Prompt response; (remember that the prompt response should be under the perspective of your Kjaku/alajax!)
I flutter my wings gently in the wind as I sigh. This flower hunt has been pointless. Here I was, stuck in the woods, in the middle of the night with no company and not even a single blue flower to show for it. It's a fairly warm night, but still I would rather be in my bed at home.

The wind rustles the nearby bushes. Except... that can't be right. The breeze had died down. It's just when I realize this that a figure appears from the bushes.

My fur stands on end as the figure approaches me and begins to ask me a question. I'm startled, and it takes me a moment to catch on to what exactly it is that he's asking me.

"The... the purpose t-to life?" I barely manage to stutter out in response to his question.

The moonlight reflects on his fur a moment as his eyes shine. He nods, obviously hopeful that I have the answers for him.

I shift uncomfortably a moment.

"I, ah--" I frown and find myself sitting down, motioning him to follow suit. When he does, I finally speak again "I don't think anyone actually does..." my frown deepens "Know, I mean, the meaning of life. I'm not sure anyone has a right answer for that one."

The strange kjaku's head and shoulders droop. Immediately I feel the need to explain what I mean. He looks so forlorn-- I can't just leave it like this.

"What I meant to say is... I think it's different for everyone? I mean, I don't think anyone really has the same reasons to carry on. I think my reason would be really different from yours, for example. And I think your reasons can change so you can never really always know the meaning or the purpose..."

He perks up a little, seemingly interested in what I'm saying now. I take that as a positive sign and continue.

"Maybe some people find it in knowledge, or leaving a legacy. Some people live for the little moments, and some people want to leave a mark on the hearts of others. Or their line in the history books. And... that's kind of the beauty in it? Everyone is so different, and so beautiful. It doesn't even always make sense. You can be miserable in a crowded room, and yet you can feel fulfilled even when you're cold and lonely."

I know I'm not making a whole lot of sense now, it's mostly useless babble, but now I can't seem to stop talking.

"Life can be corrupt, torrid, and brutal beyond belief. But it can be gentle, loving, and fulfilling."

I pause for only a moment before deciding on my last point. I think I've spoken enough, but I feel I almost need a closing argument. This feels... almost like a test and I don't know why. It feels important, like I have to pass. Maybe not for anyone else even, but at least for myself.

"Perhaps the purpose is to be different, if that makes sense? To have a different experience from everyone, and to live things the way your heart tells you to? I mean, maybe someone would find their answers in the stars, in books, or maybe in the big moments? But then someone else might find their purpose or meaning at the end of their curb or in the eyes of the kjaku they love? But, ah, yeah. I think that's it. The purpose is something you're supposed to discover on your own, and not just be told. It's something that has to have meaning to you, y'know? And maybe no one else will understand that meaning when you tell them, but then it turn they'll just seek out their own and find their own fulfillment."

I take a breath and look to the other kjaku again finally. He smiles to me, only a moment, and nods his head.

I think he understand what I mean, or at least he's trying.

Kjaku participating; Alajax
Prompt response;

Alajax whirled around as a voice echoed behind him, clutching the one flower he had managed to find earlier tight in his grasp. He was ready to fight if he needed to, to protect his flower from danger, but it seemed the stranger, one with a pelt of white and purple galaxies, only seemed to be searching for the answer to a question. "not everyone knows the purpose of our existence." he said in reply, voice deep and rough and full of hidden power, "most spend all their lives seeking the very answer you search for."

for just a moment, he considered leaving his answer at that. at then walking away and continuing his search for the elusive flowers. but then, then he saw the other's face fall and tears begin to pool in his eyes and he couldn't leave the question unanswered. not when he knew the answer. at time he was heartless and cruel and the worst of thieves, but never to one as innocent and undeserving as this stranger. "i know the answer though. or at least as clear of an answer to our purpose, our existence, that the gods will dare to grace us with."

the white kjaku looked up at him then, hope pooling in his eyes. "when i met the oldest god, he who was creation, i had the same question you do. what is our purpose in life? why do we kjaku, whose very soul is compelled to steal, exist in a world that frowns so heavily upon stealing. and he told me, with laughter in his voice and wisdom in his eyes, that we existed as a counterpoint of sorts. a reminder created by his mate that not everything is good and bad, black and white. we can be the sweetest of creatures, but also the most selfish, to the point we take anything we want. and still we are not necessarily good or bad."

alajax nodded at this, mind half lost in the memory of the day he had heard the lesson from the god. "our purpose in life is this, to remind all other species that there is more to life than good and evil. that everything must be balanced or else the world will fall into chaos. and for this reason, we just might have one of the most important purposes in life."

Khaki participating; Orange Juice
Prompt response;

Juice yelped in response to voice coming from the shrubs behind him, nearly pulling apart and crushing the flower in his palm upper most hands as he did so. With his fur standing on end, dilated pupils, and fists which stuck to his chest as though magnets on a fridge; he spun around to face the source of the voice. He held his breath for a moment, eyes searching for kjaku who'd startled him. His posture relaxed slightly as they settled on the rather odd looking kjaku. "what?" He asked, clearing his throat slightly after doing so. Juice listened carefully to the other's question, taking note of the sincerity in his voice as he did so. Carefully stuffing the crumpled flower into his pocket, Oj ran his paws over the back of his mane, pressing his soft pillowy fur back down.
"The meaning of life?" He echoed, unsure of how to answer. "I've never thought about it before." He paused for a long moment before continuing. "I don't know." He answered with a shrug before going on to say, "But if anything I've heard of Guide to the Galaxy or something is right, then it's 42." He said quickly, his cheeks warm from the embarrassment that came from starting off the conversation by holding back a shriek. He felt like he should apologies but couldn't bring himself to. Maybe he should give this kjaku the flower? "Don't be weird" he mumbled to himself. "I um…. Do you want to talk about it?" Orange Juice managed, internally kicking himself after doing so.
