Xeno X Kapua RP

<sub><b>[ Xeno || White-Earth || Earth Tribe Territory]</b><blockquote><i><b>"Too cool,"</b> a hushed voice mused as a single eye twinkled with delight at the scene.</i>

The black she-cat had been ecstatic at the invitation offered upon her by a couple of miners allowing her to tag along to study their work, and Xeno eagerly had hurriedly alerted her mentor that she would be busy for the day. Once the journey to find ore had been initiated and the cat spread out within the territory, Xeno found herself travelling with another White-Earth and the she-cat seemed to be watching the tabby tom with the eye of a hawk. She didn't really know the younger cat who went by the name of Kapua, but had noted him to be a kind- albeit emotional- apprentice. But that didn't deter her from the mission at hand.....or paw?

Xeno's mission was to watch what the miners did in order to better understand their purpose in the tribe, but she also wished to find something cool. Something interesting and worthwhile. And with this young apprentice at her side, maybe they would be able to accomplish something close to her desires. In a chipper voice, Xeno purred cheerily,<b>"So Kapua- have you done anything like this before?"</b></blockquote></sub>

<sub><b>[ Kapua || White-Earth || Earth Tribe Territory]</b><blockquote><i>The young tom padded through across the stoney terrain on nervous paws. Every so often he'd cast a sidelong glance at the black she-cat accompanying him. He was a little frightened to have a tribemate observe his mining so soon in his training, after all, he knew very little. The she-cat was a decent pawful of moons older than he, so he didn't want to appear ignorant in front of her.

His body began to tremble as he soon began to realize that he had no idea how to find the ore he was asked to. He vaguely new what it looked like, but other than that, he felt helpless. <b>"Uhmmmm..."</b> her question caught him off guard. <b>"Honestly no... I haven't done all that much to tell you he truth..."</b></blockquote></sub>

_{<b>[ Xeno || White-Earth || Earth Tribe Territory]</b><blockquote><i>Xeno watched the tom carefully and shot him a sympathetic look when Kapua admitted the truth. However, Xeno still wore a smile. The cat with the egg-shaped spot on her back gave the younger cat a swift lick atop his crown and trotted ahead of him with her neck raised. <b>"Don't worry- I won't hold it against you. I'm assuming this task takes practice. We'll just have to look harder, eh?"</b> Xeno was just excited to be there for the journey- not necessarily the location.</blockquote>}

_{<b>[ Kapua || White-Earth || Earth Tribe Territory]</b><blockquote>His large ears drooped a bit, and he offered her a meek smile as she licked his head. It'd take a lot more than that to reassure the little tom--his self-esteem was already in the negative digits as is. <b>"...yeah..."</b> he fretted, padding behind her. His heterochromatic gaze fell on her for a few heartbeats, amazed to see such enthusiasm. <b>"Do you know why you're studying with the miners today?"</b> It seemed odd that a cat from a different trade would be instructed to tag along with miners.</blockquote>}

_{<b>[ Xeno || White-Earth || Earth Tribe Territory]</b><blockquote>The black cat quickly apologized when she saw that her attempt at reassurance had failed, Kapua looking as if he had become only more upset. Xeno trotted ahead of him, her ears perked. When his words met her ears, she paused and looked back at the smaller cat, her green eye peering at him over her shoulder. <b>"Oh? Well, I'm a scholar, so I'm supposed to learn stuff, I guess. Firstly, I must learn about Earth Tribe and understand everything about it before I can learn about the other ones. And I know nothing about miners, so I figured it would be good for me to follow and observe. After all, I hear it's your jobs to find cool things out here. Interesting things. But not worries-" She grinned deviously. <b>"I won't hold it against you if you suck."</b></blockquote>}
