=you playfully got into a tussle with nightsuns, and although you were stronger than her, you still felt clumsy and big-footed compared to her light steps and dexterous pivots. (x2)
=swaying her hips gently, nightsuns approaches you with a warm welcome. (x2)
nightsuns is a delicate, graceful lioness with a bright personality. she's very gentle, caring, and was confused when there was already a broodmother in the pride.. she was brought to this pride when she was an adolescent, before she was prized for her gentle nature.
she was hoping to be a broodmother; she loved cubs! they were so fun to play with, and it gave her an excuse to act like a cub again. she headed over to lillith, trying to discuss roles, before overhearing the queen giving blackwater the role of a broodmother..
she cringed to herself. as an older adolescent, she never went near blackwater; she was too scared of the other lioness. the lioness was so large, threatening, and pretty.. she could never talk to her!
though when she was instructed to go to the same cave as her, she basically had no choice. but she was an adult now! surely she could talk to the lioness...
and she did. she tried to, at least. blackwater curled her lip up at her, to which she was taken back at. why would lillith appoint such an aggressive lioness to be with the cubs? does she know how reckless that is?
..though at some point, nightsuns observed the way sunkissed perked up with a squeaky "mama!". probably the cutest thing ever. she turned to see blackwater's reaction, and she was once more.. taken back.
the soft look in her eyes-- were they glistening? no, she would never cry. she half expected the broodmother to swipe at the cub, but instead she lapped at her ears lovingly and tucked her closer to her chest.
nightsuns was left confused now. so the other had a soft spot for cubs..? was that it? she shook her head to herself. maybe, but wasn't that highly stereotypical..?
whatever. that didn't matter.
she walked up to blackwater later on, after sunkissed grew and when she was protecting other cubs.. blackwater hissed up at her, but over time, she let her watch over the cubs with her.
and watching the cubs with her lead them to talk. every single day. nightsuns was actually looking forward to it; and then when they grew inseparable, even when there were no cubs to protect.. nightsuns began to develop romantic feelings for blackwater.
she squished them down, annoyed with herself. why should she ever? they are best friends. she didn't want to ruin it.
though soon, the feelings grew stronger. and she finally confessed.
she stared up into blackwater's yellow eyes, which narrowed at the words. before she let out this gentle smirk, leaning forward to lap at her ears. "i like you too, sapling. come here."
from then on, the two were partners. and they wouldn't have it any other way.
