Between the general heat that came in as summer was drawing to a close and the lingering humid air from the storms and rain of the season, it was unbearably sticky and hard to breathe in the scorching air.  Sure the trees provided shade, but the humidity alone made the weather unbearable.  Not to mention it was the middle of the day when the temperature was at its highest.  Stack that all together and you had a terrible day climate wise.

Sephiroth, despite his hardiness and general tolerance of changing weather, even had to admit that the heat was ungodly.  The lion panted as he patrolled throughout the territory, pushing on despite the poor air condition for the sake of his clan.  His group needed to stay together with strong members like himself, so he couldn’t take too many breaks and had to keep working for the sake of the group’s survival.  Still, it was unpleasant.

Swiping his tongue over his jaws with a straining huff of breath, the light furred lion would pause to catch his breath.  At the very least he could be thankful he didn’t have a darker pelt that would absorb the heat, which would make his suffering even worse.  He was desperate for some sort of relief, so he stretched out his senses to find some way to relieve himself.  Soon enough, his ears could hear the gentle sound of moving water as he found himself immediately going straight towards it, moving as fast as he could in the heat.

Sure enough, there was a good sized pool of water being fed by a river that ran from somewhere in the distance.  Sephiroth approached without any hesitation and gently slipped into the water with a deep and contented sigh, his eyes half closed in relief and pleasure.  Ah yes, that felt much, much better.  The lion crouched in the pool, letting the cool water move over his pelt and chill his heated form.  For once his expression actually looked pleased, with his eyes slowly closing comfortably and a small smile on his silvery muzzle.  It wouldn’t work forever, but for now it would be a good temporary relief to the end of summer heat.

Lucerys wasn't too prone to feel heat, not as easily as furred creatures did. He did have back legs of a lion, but his fur was short and well-kept constantly. All it took was a good roll in dust and he was good.

But today, he wanted to swim. He wanted to feel water drip between his feathers, he wanted to wash all of the dust off of him. Maybe the gold in his feathers would come out more if he did. So, Lucerys made off for the sound of trickling water, seeing the familiar sight of the lion basking in the cold liquid.

"Enjoying the water? Is it hot for you?" He asked a bit too loudly, his beak closing with a soft, quick snap. "Can I join?"

EPIONE

✯ — having a soft heart in a cruel world is courage, not weakness

the sun upon her lightly painted feathers was far more appreciated than one would think. backing herself in the gentle kisses of the sun’s rays and spreading out her wings. the heat had never bothered her much, her feathers always able to trap fresh air and allow a passage of air flow. epione was used to hot environments, with the sun beating down on her in the highest of summers. the thing she could not handle was the winters. those were always the hardest.
she tended to stay in and be tightly curled throughout cold months.

of course, wherever her elder brother had went, the other was never far behind. while she may not have wished to swim, she had craved a drink of water. she didn’t get to drink a lot on their trip here, epione always got impatient easily.

she liked it when things were moving, when others get to the point and not waste her time. it may have sounded rude, but she never payed any attention to useless speeches. if it had not related to her, her family, or a task, she could care less. epione thrived when she was being out to work.

she was given lessons in respect and how to rule. the basics of being a velaryon. they were a proud family.

soon, epione had found her brother and the graying lion from before. maybe he wasn’t graying, but she had to admit silver was a strange colour. missing her brother’s question, she had found the perfect opportunity. her body had been rather quick, pushing her body weight upon her sibling in hopes of him loosing his balance and stumbling into the water.

settling near the two, the diantier gryphon has dipped her talons into the cool water, tail settling near her to make sure she didn’t take up too much room. “is it really that hot? you should try eating fruits with high amounts of water to try cooling down instead of laying in the water.” did they have melons here? her mother always got epione melons in the hottest days of summer to make sure she had looked presentable and stayed properly hydrated.

”Yes and yes.  Unbearably so.”  Sephiroth would respond in his deep rumbling voice, his tone still sleepy.  ”And I’m not going to stop you.  Best take advantage of it while you can.”  His silver tufted tail would flick in a beckoning motion, shifting the water around him.  The male would roll his powerful shoulders with a contented sound in his gullet before he moved to sit in the water, his toes and claws shifting the small stones and soil of the bottom of the pond.

His eyes would shift once again as Epione approached.  ”I’ll be sure to keep that in mind.”  Sephiroth would respond, lowering more to a mid-crouch to let his pale fur submerge into the water and part of his signature silver mane to spread at the water’s surface.  He wasn’t the extremely chatty type, but he wasn’t rude.  He simply said what was needed at the time.

[align=center][div style="width: 51%; text-align: justify; font-size: 10pt; letter-spacing: 0px; font-family: verdana;"]Lydia wasn't stupid. She was quick-witted and creative and knew quite a few advanced things about important stuff like herbs and combat. She could come up with elaborate plans and organize anything from a party to a war strategy. But she did have a lot of stupid questions. Curiosity killed the cat, but it also killed a benign Lydia's self-esteem sometimes.

Nonetheless, the tabby trotted over to the large group of animals (two gryphons and a whole ass lion), tilting her head at an uncomfortable angle in an attempt to look in the faces of all three. It had been warmer these days, but it was nothing that she wasn't used to or couldn't muscle through on her own. Thus a series of questions were prompted in her mind. "Do you have, like, multiple layers of fur?" Lydia quipped in Sephiroth's direction, blinking her innocent baby blues in genuine curiosity.

Listen, while Lucerys had a lot of patience for his baby sister, he knew that she had tendencies to trick him. She hated sharing him with other people, so he just avoided getting into real relationships for now. He needed to make sure she was happy before he even thought of settling down. While it may sound bad, Lucy had no problem with it. Besides, family was everything in House Velaryon.

What he wasn't expecting however, was or his sister to push him into the water. With a loud squawk, he fell into the river, talons gripping the banks and ripping through the ground from the impact. "Oof!" He grunted as he fell back, splashing water to and fro. He was large, and that made it hard for him to move his weight in the water. With a glare towards his little sister, which soon turned into gentle amusement, Lucerys used his large wing to splash her with a wave of water. "What was that for, Mandia?" Asked the larger gryffon, shaking out his feathers before settling down just like Seph had.

When the other two arrived, Lucerys lifted his head to greet the domesticated feline and jaguar. "A pleasure, you two. Welcome to the water pool- people call it a river?" Lucerys chuckled, talons knocking against rocks and soil at the bottom.
