◞➳ a fine, spring morning; dawns fingers extend milky and roseyed across the heavens. slick of dew on tall budding grass, it brushes against legs as slender limbs caramelized and ivory carry her forward. exhaustion ignites in gaze, a yawn knots in throat; night before had been particularly grievous, terrors of the dark leaving her to stir with sweat glossed along cheeks and breaths expelled frantically. common sense urges her sinking mind to turn back and clamber into bed sheets all over again, let sleep reclaim senses and muddy her into an etheral dream light and airy. but more wizened mind knows better, urges she's a woman who's earned her nightmares and therefore, the hope to be released from its claws and fall into sugar plums and frosting driftings is a slimmed chance.
and then scent of rain on earth and herbs bitter weaves into nostrils like fine strands, drawing a pulse of familiarity into damaged brain and all thoughts of whether she sleeps or does not, is discarded to winds. she moves forward, strides quick, pace quicker, ears craning forward and disbelief rounding face usually oh so sharp, "tempest," the name blushes past lips, a stupefied utterance bursting over tongue grazed flame and smoke. moon glory woman with sun stained kingdom, another to have wielded the crowns enchanting power between fingertips slicked and midnight bursts, perched atop head. chicago moves closer with lilac blossom eyes narrowing some, lost, confused, but hopeful, just the tiniest bit, at sight of familiar face. "i ain't seen you in a hot minute. you . . . what're ya doin' 'ere?"

Is there anyone Chicagocrimes didn't know? She certainly had gathered a lot of fans being the previous leader. Dethronedking wonders if that is true for him. Maybe, but considering that everyone in ScarClan and TidalClan were gone, he doesn't exactly have any familiar faces to look to. Everyone here were moving on - new faces, new names, new generations. It's kind of . . . lonely. But should he dwell on the past? The past is nothing but trouble and the present is the only thing that matters right now.
The snow leopard joins the deputy, gazing curiously at Teacuptempest. Solaris Kingdom was a thing of the past, and this one is not familiar to him as he knew of Aurum. "You know this one?" he mumbles, voice barely audible. She's looking a bit different from the other normal cats and dogs and whatnot. But if anything, you could say that Joshua's the most wildest creature you ever seen around here though.

*:･ﾟ✦ A familiar face was first - Chicagocrimes, woman of cold flames, of crimson and gold - she was almost everything Tea wasn't. Chica was warm while Tea was cold, lonely; boundless burning fuel against a circling tide. Tea, however, couldn't help but let a small smile swim onto her maw. "Chica, I'm glad to see you're still here." she hummed - she looked Chica over, before adding, "I hope you're doing well." it was a bit awkward, however, and her voice seemed to gurgle softly at the end, like bubbles rising in her throat. Taking a deep breath to quell her anxiety, she turned to Dethronedking; she didn't know him, of course. Aurum would have but she had been just after him. You know this one? he asks, and Tea answers before Chica can. "Teacuptempest. I lead the 'kingdom for a little bit." she hummed, before adding, "Just- y'know. Wondering if I could join you guys." she mumbles, glancing between the two. Hopefully that was fine - the only other place she'd been was the dark dynasty. She wasn't even sure where Alcibiades was, her brother - or anyone else for that matter. She didn't know Joshua was here either.
"Speech."

The beast squinted at the commotion.
A lot of wanderers had been coming to them lately, hadn't they? At least this one isn't bleeding outta her head like the prior one. Though, perhaps that was a bit too cruel to leave on her head.
"I hope your leaving of leadership isn't because of something foul." Last thing they needed was angry desert dwellers at their door.
Yuck, sand... Got in everywhere. Sand stuck in his fur...between his feathers, ooo...in his ears...
"You and Chicago seem old friends."

*:･ﾟ✦ In all honesty, her stepping down was just... because it felt like it was time. It didn't matter then, nor did it now - and she let out a little snort. This guy seemed so familiar... it couldn't be, could it? "That's not you Josh, is it?" she asked, although she scrunched up her nose and let out a bubbly laugh. "If it is, then it's nice to see you're still a hardass." and you're a sight for sore eyes, she would have said if she had an ounce of bravery - she wasn't entirely sure if this was him, after all. But... if it was the same Josh, then she would have called him a friend - not to his face, of course.
"Speech."

◞➳ "i hope you're doing well."
words blush past tongue tip— "could be better,"— but go no further, they cannot. for king in all his glory gunmetal and silver linings lackadaisical comes next, blue flamed inquiry and teacuptempest returns, cream smoked answer. aligned in silence, she ponders the flutter of tea's words bubbled siren song and river rush, embracing her in mermaid rhythm. joining, returning; the dead girl has missed her, and the sanctuary will love her. a wide grin quirks her lips, flick of a switch blade, sharp and toothy. "'course ya can join. you don't need a tour now, do ya?" chica finally says, before eyes dart between both josh and tempest, curiosity ignited. familiar faces, old friends? she can't bring herself to prod.

The beast prickled, squinting at the watery feline. What the fuck? Who the fuck? Joshua was silent as he looked the newcomer over, trying to figure out who the fuck would have the idiotic thought of calling him a-
He perked, recognition flashing over his features.
"Oh."
A sharp laugh escaped the beast, grin full of deadly teeth.
"Shit, it's you Tea- been a fucking minute, almost didn't recognise you!"
His tail came around, flickering near her feet. Shit man, he didn't think he'd ever see her again, what a fuckin' shock.
It was good to see a friend again.
Though, he'd die before he said that aloud.
"Guess you're bumpin' hips with multiple in the Sanctuary."
