AW to far away places

Broad paws pressed against a vast rolling landscape, thick with grass and underbrush, the grass coming to life once more with the growing consistency of coming rainfall during the season of his birth. His first birthday had only just passed, how mother promised he would grow a thick, full mane like his father before him. But ha! It never came, from a distance the man could easily be mistaken for a lioness, his mouse brown and grey pelt against the dull backdrop of the darkening evening steppes, he moved without purpose, still though he did not saunter or slouch. No; he would bound instead, blue eyes ever darting over the terrain for anything of possible interest or excitement. A blink of movement here, a bird there and Pan's eyes would dance mimicking the restless nature of his own, inability to be still.

Blue eyes came to lock onto another bird, picking through the grass for its next meal, the man stilled, ears slowly rotating forward letting his frame sink down onto his belly. Did he truly expect to catch it? Really it was just a game for him, something set to merely pass the time, shoulders would roll as he attempted to inch closer. Another moment until he leapt from his crouched place, launching his body toward the small bird - which of course fled to the skies long before he made contact with where it once sat.

The man huffed, allowing his body weight to roll; ungracefully so he fell onto one shoulder first before rolling onto his back, kicking out his back feet belly exposed as the man rolled the his crown against the earth, orbs of sapphire set on the upside down horizon before him.

well i ain't first class but i ain't white trash
some girls don't like boys like me, aw but some girls do
ooc. inspo music + koku's voice claim:
misty mountains by peter hollens ft. tim foust (koku's vc)
man of constant sorrow by home free
some girls do by home free

the goliath beast pads dazedly across the steppes, lost in thoughts of his soon-to-be wife - a wife! a wife all his very own! - and quite nearly manages to step on a certain area no man ever wants stepped on before he tears himself out of his own head. jolting backwards ( with quite a bit more noise than he'd made wandering up ) the gargantuan puppy-lion finds himself unceremoniously dumped on his ass in his attempt to avoid stepping on this stranger's exposed dangly-bits. humphing with surprise, koku shakes his flowing curls off his face so he can see properly. hopefully this dude won't run away - koku only looks terrifying. if one was to be worried about being assaulted by a red lion with a skull mask, they ought to worry about his twin - legion's nickname wasn't death for no good reason.

well, it had been to start with ( sonni and her flamboyant naming tendencies ) but the vastly more aggressive and creepy of the pair has certainly grown into the name. koku's nickname, on the other paw, was entirely unsuited - but death and despair always came 'round together, and he supposed there could be an argument made that he followed legion around more often than he was off doing anything else. he's half surprised his twin hadn't burst out of the rocks to creep the absolute shit out of this brown dude yet, but there's always time in the day for spookin' people, koku supposes. did i manage to keep from steppin' on ya? koku asks, in the same lazy tone his red parent often uses. given his lack of spatial awareness, koku isn't quite sure if he'd managed to avert disaster or not - but he hopes he had. otherwise he's about to have a very unfortunate start to a potential friendship.

At the sudden onset of a stranger Pan nearly jolts from his daydreaming, rotating his body so his legs might fall together and he is back on his side Pan picks his head up so he can see the behemoth that looms overtop of him. Still laying down, lounging out on the tundra plains as he observes this crimson beast. Surely he'd never seen anything like this before. The man before him was huge, and bathed in a sea of red like Pan could hardly wrap his mind around. Upon his head a thick plumage of mane adorned him, draping down like a curtain over his face. Pan gave a light tilt of his head from where he lay, observing the man in silent awe until he spoke.

did i manage to keep from steppin' on ya? a lazy droll and Pan smiled, a chuckle emanating from his chest as he sits himself up "yeah, no harm no foul friend!" he rumbles as he leans in to sniff at the other males face. "what brings you out here? love your fur by the way...it's so vibrant" he mused with a smile.

ooc.

luckily, koku seems to have avoided disaster - which means this guy is still a potential new buddy! the sudden leaning-in is met with a confused grin, mismatched gaze amused by the stranger's boldness. the compliment, however, has koku ducking his head in a bashful manner - unused to such things. th-thank you. i get it from my pa-ma. which is what kokushibo had taken to calling sonni - since she's mom, cause she's a she, but she's also dad, cause she knocked up genya (and caspian, but that's neither here nor there) so to kokushibo's logic that makes her a dad-mom. or pa-ma, instead of papa or mama. shaking his head a little, the goliath beast peers at his new friend (it's very easy to make friends with him, considering he's one big dumb puppy) and thinks about the question he's been asked.

well... thinkin', mostly, i guess. 'bout my fiancée. i'm also lookin' for my twin, they're identical to me, but in miniature. oh, and they're a lot creepier than me. their name is death. he grins, happy to have answered his new buddy - before remembering he hasn't introduced himself. oh! i'm kokushibo, by the way. or, um, despair. our pa-ma had this whole theme going for our litter - my siblings are death, war, pestilence, and famine. he rolls his eyes a little, shrugging - it isn't like sonni's nicknames hadn't turned out fairly accurate for the most part, anyways. aside from koku, the whole litter seem to embody their names quite nicely.
