Roleplay- 3rd of December

Ninja closes his right eye to prevent it from being poked by the pup's paws as it blindly paws at his face. It's adorable sounding churrs and squeals make Ninja chuckle with joy.

Conker looks back and forth between to John and Ninja. He was enjoying both of their interactions with the pups and can't pick who he wants to watch the most.

saffron is still asleep

Linda smiles and peeps to Josephine. She has something to show her old friend. She heads back inside, assuming Josephine will follow.

Saffron woke up and Fell back asleep

Ninja nuzzles the pup caringly and allows it to continue pawing and nibbling at his face. He grins and sounds a satisfied churr.

Conker leans back against the chamber wall. Seeing the pups playing around has put him in a playfull mood and he starts to chew on his front paws whilst making excited churring noises.

Saffron Woke up again and and Yawned She wanted to play She yawned again saffron Found a Bush and climbed on it but fell off half way up she began to cry then tryed again once she made it she stood Sentry

John was having a great time with the new litter as well. One pup was still climbing blindly around on his side while the other was pawing at one of John's front legs.

Ninja watches with an admiring smile as the pup blindly crawls down his belly then gently slides down to the floor. It then turns around and nibbles at Ninja's side. He chuckles as it tickled.

Conker crawls over to the pup and gently paws its back. He too is enjoying this precious moment.

Aliya looks around warily.

Suri looks around in the burrow. She hasn't left the spot where she left.

Emzio looks around curious.

Josephine loyally followed Linda, overflowing with joy at her reunion with an old friend. Forgetting her nerves she kept up the space, excited to know where she was being taken too.

Ninja watches Conker interact with the pup with an admiring smile. He leans to the side and nuzzles the pup caringly.

Conker stands over the pup and gently bites its back. He instinctively knows the hours old pup is fragile and keeps his play gentler than he usually does.

Linda heads into the chamber where the pups are located at and shows Josephine her newborn litter. She peeps, telling Josephine they were just born a few hours ago. They had to go back to the burrow when she started going into labor at the foraging party.

John continued to lay on his side, letting the two newborns play around on his body. It tickled, and also, felt good. He closed his eyes in content, dreaming of when he could do this with a female. One pup was now asleep on John's side, finding his fur comfortable and warm. It felt good. The second one was now nibbling on John's paw.

Ninja notices that one of the pups had itself comfortable on John's fur and smiles at the adorable sight. He knows that John will make a great father when his oppertunity comes. Suddenly, Ninja feels a slight tug on his cheek and shifts his eyes towards the pup that's with him. He churrs a giggle as it paws and nibbles on his cheek. He notices Linda entering with another meerkat and tilts his head to the side curious. He's never seen that meerkat in the group before.

Conker topples onto his stomach and flails his limbs in the air while churring delightly. As the pup he's playing with climbs onto his stomach he squeals with laughter. The pup crawling on his stomach tickled. He's having so much fun that he doesn't notice Linda entering with Josephine.

Aliya smiles. Josephine seemed to fit right in almost instantly.

Ninja may not know who Josephine is, but since he's in a joyful mood, he'd proudly let this new meerkat see his and Linda's litter. He looks over at Linda curious. It seems she knows this strange female.

As Conker turns his head, he sees Linda and Josephine standing at the chamber entrance. He stares at Josephine, his eyes glimmer with innocent curiosity.

Having followed Linda into the burrow, Josephine stood wide eyed in the entrance to the birthing chamber watching the tiny pups happily move around next to John and Ninja. Overwhelmed, she nuzzled Linda congratulating her.
The six little bundles were a precious addition to any family group and as a loyal friend Josephine would willingly put her life on the line to protect them should they come to any harm.
Watching Ninja’s proud smile next to the youngsters, Josephine assumes he must be the mystery male who Bravo had been interested to find.

Ninja smiles warmly and welcomingly at Josephine. He doesn't know yet that she's from the Willows, the group that's determined to put an end to his roving days and existance if they ever cross paths again, which unbeknownst to him, fate has planned to put them and the Jumaa on a collision course in about a week.

Linda smiles at peeps, telling Ninja that Josephine is from the Willows, and telling Josephine the pround-looking male is Ninja, the father. She lays down next to the pups, and seeing how they immediately react to their mother's return by crawling towards her belly, she can tell they're hungry, so she pulls them close and they start to feed.

Ninja suddenly becomes uneasy when he finds out Josephine is from the Willows. Everyone in that mob wants him dead...does she? He grits his teeth and shuffles his feet then pins himself against the wall, bracing himself to be attacked.

Conker pads over to Josephine and sniffs the air around her. She seems harmless, kind and trustworthy to him. He plops down at her feet and looks up at her, smiling warmly.

Linda sees Ninja's reaction and peeps, saying that he can relax. She doesn't recall Josephine ever acting with hostility towards her relationship with him. It was mostly the males that wanted him dead.

Ninja relaxes his tense body and sounds a sigh of relief. Come to think of it, he doesn't recall many of the females acting hostily towards him. Mostly the males were wanting to rip him to shreds, particulary Bravo, Tank and Leon. His nervous expression softens and he reveals a warm welcoming smile to Josephine.

Aliya gets back to scanning the area.

John noticed most of the pups went to Linda to feed. Very carefully, he nudged the one on his side, who awoke with a peep. He carefully picked it up, standing up and placing the pup near Linda's stomach so it could nurse. He then took notice of Josephine. He smiled at her, she looked new, just like he was.

The pup that had been chewing on Ninja crawls over to Linda and he watches with an admiring smile as they cuddle up to their mother. It seem they've drawn quite a crowd. Why wouldn't they? They're just so darn cute! Ninja chuckles as he watches the pups feed from Linda. He's so proud to be her mate and a father of their precious pups.

Conker churrs with admiration and his eyes glimmer with joy as he watches the pups nestle into their mother's belly for a feed.
