ALONZO
Alonzo starred around the yard for a moment before he realized that he had been interacted with. He looked down at Admetus slowly, his eyes still partially glazed over, "Oh, hello Admetus." he gave the tom a warm smile despite his exhausted state, "Sorry I didn't respond earlier. Just focused I guess. What are you doing up this early?"
At that moment the black and white tom's attention was brought to his son. Alonzo smiled again as he brought his paw up to rub the spot Cupio hit absent mindedly, "Good morning Cupio." he greeted, "Do I really look that tired?" he asked with a small yawn near the end, "I don't know why I didn't do that. I guess I'm just having troubles sleeping any way, so I figure I might as well patrol." He yawned again, only this time much bigger.
AMARANTHA
Amarantha could hear a few voices around the yard as she strolled leisurely through the piles of stuff, every once in a while stopping to see what a particular something was. Eventually the meek queen found herself in the main clearing of the yard. She looked around, hoping to see Astrella but once she saw that her partner in crime was no where to be seen, she decided to find a little place of her own to sit and simply watch the others. She never was one to jump into someone else's conversation.
After spoting a nice spot beside the pipe Valentine and Zephonie were talking on, she made her way to it and sat down gently with her legs brought up to her chest. She wrapped her arms around them and sighed, smiling a bit to herself. She didn't really know what it was, but it seemed like a good day and she was simply going to enjoy it in whatever way she wished.
[[I'll bring in Misto and Stasia soon... just have to figure out where to put them. If anyone wants to interact with one of them, let me know!]]

Valentine
Val smiled at Zephonie. " Morning, Zep. Yeah. I just woke up." He laid down on his chest so he could talk to her better. "I didn't wake you up did I?" He would feel bad if he did. Queens deserved their sleep. Speaking of Queens, Val's eye lit up as the queen he had been just thinking of coming closer to him. He smiled as he turned his head in the direction of Mantha. " Mornin' Mantha." He said to her as he turned his attettion back to Zephonie.
Arizona
Zona felt her human's hand running over her soft fur. She opened her eyes and nugded her hand. Today was a small miracle. Lillyanna had the day off today. Zona could spend all day with her. Lilly looked at the clock. It was so early. Zona got up and streched. She then went to the kitchen. After she ate, she left her human's house and made her way to the yard. There were a few cats up already. She didn't feel like distrubing anyone so she just found a quiet spot and sat down.

(CUPIO)
“Yea,” Cupio replied, shrugging his shoulders, “I guess if you can’t sleep you might as well be productive. Just don’t ware yourself out old man.” He said, smirking in his father’s direction. “And that goes for you too Admetus.” Turning to face his father’s friend, Cupio grinned as broadly as he possibly could. It was a smile that usually meant that the brown tux was up to something, or in this case, just in a knock about mood.
When Adriel approached Cupio turned to face the multi colored tom and offered him a smile as well. “Hey there Adriel, no worries. What’cha up to?” He asked, reaching over to pat his shoulder. “Are you usually up this early?”

ADMETUS
Admetus chuckled at Cupio's remark, "I'm not that old!". Looking up at the two generations that sat on the tyre made him think of his own son. His heart twinged. "I too could not sleep." Admetus said in response to Alonzo. Yawning, the tom got up, dusted himself off and climed up on the tyre to join in the better part of the conversation.
"You would think that the older we got, the more time we would spend sleeping." Admetus said jokingly, "I mean when I was your age Cupio I was bursting with energy and could hardly keep still!" Smiling and remebering his youth fondly, Admetus stared off into the distance, becoming misty-eyed thinking of how that time flew past.

AMARANTHA
Mantha turned around quickly, startled by the sound of Val's voice, her arms letting go of her legs and flailing a little from the shock,
"Oh, my goodness!" she said quickly as she gained her composure and brought her movements down to almost nothing. She looked up at Val with her eyes, her head staying in place, and blushed a bit, "I'm sorry," she mumbled, giggling through her embarrassment. She let her eyes fall to her paws which were now resting lightly on her lap, "That was a ridiculous reaction. I guess I was just lost in my own thoughts."
She smiled, still blushing and embarrassed, and looked back at Val and then to Zephonie, "Good morning you two."

((Again, short and crappy, but just trying to be active and get a post in.))
Cade:[/u]
The burly young tom emerged from his den, stretching. Adriel had gotten up earlier, and though Adriel waking up and leaving their den woke Cade up, he took his time getting out of bed. He wasn't fond of greeting a new day, not yet. Probably just because he woke up in a bad mood, but he would rather spit on the new day. Spotting his older sister, that he sometimes felt and treated as a younger sister that needed to be protected, sitting alone, he made the effort to go to her. "Ari." He nodded in greeting, instead of saying 'hello', or 'hi'. Bluntly he asked. "Why are you here all alone?"
Jemima:
The black calico queen had just finished grooming herself. She was content with her appearance, and left. She made her way to the junkyard aware that her mates probably wouldn't be up yet, except for Alonzo. She was also pretty sure her kittens wouldn't be up either or if they were, would want to be with their friends instead of her. Jemima didn't see anyone around and instead of joining a group she walked over to a small patch of grass and started to pick through some of the small flowers growing there.
Xochipilli:
Xo tossed and turned in her bed, doubts and other nonsense plaguing her mind. Finally she woke up, groggy and in a bland mood. There was nothing good to keep her in bed, and normally when she got up early she could avoid the awkward morning runins with Narcius; who is normally either still asleep or fixing his appearance just right. Flipping her covers over in a lame way of making her 'bed', she left her den after a few quick strokes through her fur. Not seeing Narcius, she sauntered to the other side of the yard, avoiding the groups, and found a nice quiet place. Perching herself up above the ground on a smooth brown box, she laid down and began to clean herself.

Valentine
Val laughed a little at Mantha's reaction. He turned back to her. "It's okay. I don't think your the only one." he said indicating towards Zeppy. He looked around the yard and saw Zona,Addy, and Cade up. He would talk to them later.
Arizona
Ari yawned. When she opened her amber eyes again, Cade was there. " I'm still sleepy and don't feel like getting into anyone else's way. How are you this morning? " She asked as she gotten closer to him. Out of all her siblings, She got along with Val and Cade the most.
Kiyoshi
The white and calico young tom opened his emerald green eyes to find out that it was morning already. Man, he must've slept like a rock. He yawned and got up. He groomed himself quickly. It was a little early so Benny probably wouldn't be up yet but maybe one of his parents would be. He streched. He then left his den and looked around the yard. "Momma!!" He said a little too loud. His cheeks blushed a embarrassing shade of red. (which was too cute!!) He walked over to her and hugged her but not too tightly. " Morning, Momma"

AZRAEL
The sleek grey and brown tom woke when he felt his bed being jolted. He jumped about two feet in the air, yowling as he did so. He looked about in a panic, only to find that it was his owners foot that had shaken him from his sleep. The old man was running around the kitchen, switching between dressing and eating breakfast. After Zaz regained his breath, he decided he might as well get out of the house since he was awake. He strolled down the street, yawning a few times. He arrived at the yard, and looked around through sleep glazed eyes. He spotted Xochipilli off by herself. That's odd...the future railway cat thought. It was odd to see the tabby queen without her mate, but Azzy wasn't complaining. Rae didn't know what it was about the black and whtie queen that he liked so much, but he did know how hard it could be to keep his cool around her. She deserves a prince...I'm no prince He thought as he strode across the yard to where the beautiful young queen was perched. "Morning Xo," He called casually as he approached, stopping next to the queen and leaning on a pile of trash.

CASSIUS Cassius laughed as Charlotte jumped, and even more as she attempted to gracefully cover her surprise. He reached out to stabilize her if she needed it, though. Sure, it was hilarious, but he wasn't going to let her hurt her pride too much... or hurt herself, for that matter.
Upon the question, he shrugged slightly "The sun got me up, I guess," he started, "Or I don't require as much beauty sleep as I used to." He winked at her, and grinned his usual cocky grin. "Looking for me, eh? Come to ask me to the ball, have you?" He grinned wider and puffed himself up a bit. He knew very well she hadn't, but it was always fun to joke about.
ZEPHONIE Zephonie snapped out of her slight trance, caused be scanning the junkyard for a trace of Illumina. "Good morning, Amarantha," she said, with a genuine smile. She'd always been quite fond of the striped queen-- the two were close in age, and Amarantha was, after all, the sister of her best friend. "It's good to see you this morning."
She found herself with a lack of things to say very quickly... but this was very common for poor Zephonie, who never really seemed to get the same social skills as other members of the tribe. "Are you all excited about the ball next week?" she asked, with a lack of a better topic to discuss.
MUNKUSTRAP
With a huge stretch and a few popping joints, Munkustrap got up off his pillow and started to make his way out into the yard. So much preparation to be had. He needed to talk to Mistoffelees and Tantomile, as well as Bill Bailey and Electra, about Themis and Cade coming of age in a week. No one seemed to take a mate right away anymore, but Munkustrap didn't think it was a bad thing. The Junkyard was crowded, and, though it saddened him a bit to think of it, it'd be better if the younger kids waited to have kittens until a few more of his old friends made their way to the Heaviside.
Munkustrap was very glad that wasn't a choice he had to make this particular ball. He sat down atop a pile near the entrance to the yard, ready to greet any Jellicle coming in, and run away any intruders.

AMARANTHA
Mantha smiled at Zephonie, "It's good to see you too." she answered genuinely. Mantha didn't really have a problem with any of the cats in the yard, but there were a few who's company she enjoyed a little more, and Zephonie was one of them.
"I guess I'm excited." the light coloured queen shrugged as she looked around the yard at all the other cats. She wondered if they all had dates, "At this point I think I'm just going to show up and stick to the sides. You know me, quiet and aloof. I don't want to take the spotlight away from all the cats with dates." she laughed a bit at herself as she looked back to the other two,
"Have you guy's found dates?"
MISTOFFELEES
In a flurry of white and black fur, Mistoffelees shot up from a deep sleep, breathing heavily with his eyes looking all around him frantically. He heard the light footsteps of his people making their way down the hallway and the familiar mumble of their voices brought him back to earth. It was simply a dream. His breathing slowed and eventually he got himself to the point where he could leave his small bed and make his way to the yard.
After scarfing down a quick breakfast, and a quick dash around town, he was in his second home. He saw Munkustrap and without another thought he made his way to the protector,
"Hello Munk." he greeted with a small smile, though the anxiety of the morning was still clear in his voice, "I would like to talk to you about something."

ZEPHONIE
"I think my plan's the same," she replied, honestly. She'd never, ever been one for the spotlight, even at her own coming of age... her mother had made a big deal of it, of course-- she'd been the first to come of age in years, but it had just made Zephonie extremely nervous. But luckily, since then, she'd been able to watch the ball rather than partake in everything. It was the way she preferred things.
"Oh, I'm actually going as friends with Illumina," she said, nearly beaming. Every time she thought about getting to spend the whole night as the 'date' of her best friend, she started feeling very cheerful. "What about you, Valentine?" she asked, looking toward the maned tom.
MUNKUSTRAP "Ah, Mistoffelees," he called, greeting the younger tom warmly, "good morning!" He paused a moment. "You look worried... something bothering you?" He hopped down from his perch and made his way to properly greet the black tom. "Everything's all right, I hope? Let's come over this way, we can talk in private." He motioned toward the other side of the junk pile, past the gaze of the main clearing of the yard. "I was hoping to run into you this morning anyway," he said as he walked. "Your little girl is coming of age next week, you must be very proud."
Munkustrap stopped, sending a fatherly smile down to Mistoffelees.

Valentine
" I guess you could say that." Truth be told, he was actually nervous. He had a sorta crush on Mantha and asking her to the ball caused him to be this way. He stayed quiet while Mantha talked. Quiet and Aloof, That's why he liked her. He was the same way too. When he heard that Zeppy was going with Mina, He smiled at her. At least now, he wouldn't feel sorry for her sitting on the sidelines by herself. " Well, I was hoping Amarantha would go with me." he said looking at the yellow and sliver queen and blushing slightly.

AMARANTHA
Mantha smiled at Zephonie when she heard that she was going with Illumina. She knew they were good friends, and sometimes it was nice just to hang out with friends. After all, there was nothing she liked more than spending time with Astrella.
She was about to say something in regards to close friends when she heard Valentine say her name. Quickly her head spun in his direction, her mouth open slightly in surprise, and her face grew to be a bright pink colour. Did he really say what she thought he just said? She starred at him for a moment - probably too long for the circumstances - and blinked a few times,
"Oh, my goodness..." she began to say but found that the anxiety of the situation began to take hold of her. She closed her eyes to try and fight off the bought of panic and took a deep breath. She knew she was being silly and she wanted to say yes right away, but her nervous habits seemed to force her into more of a state of panic. She gulped, telling herself over and over again that she had to overcome this feeling.
She opened her eyes quickly and smiled awkwardly at the two cats in her company, "I'm - I'm sorry." she said quietly, "I have anxiety issues." She focused her attention on Val, "I'm sorry if this seems a little strange. I would be happy to explain it later, if you would like, but let's not get into it." she smiled, this time with more confidence as her anxiety began to subside with the sound of her voice and her focus on Val, "I would love to go to the ball with you." she stated firmly then looked out into the yard. She felt dumb - really dumb - and she wouldn't be surprised if Val and Zeph now thought she was crazy.
MISTOFFELEES
Misto gave Munk a sideways smile as he followed him to a more private location in the yard. He nodded at the mention of his daughter,
"Yes. She is coming of age, isn't she?" he answered quickly. The mention of Themis brought on a small pang in his stomach, "What I need to talk to you about sort of concerns her... well, everyone really." The tuxedo tom fiddled with his fingers as he recounted the dream he had the night before in his head,
"You see, I had the most disturbing dream." he started, "I'm not really sure what it was, the memory isn't really that clear anymore, but it wasn't good. I just have this terrible feeling that something bad is going to happen at the ball." he looked up at the leader he respected so much and breathed out slowly, "I wish I could tell you more, but it's just not there anymore. All I have is the feeling it gave me left."

(THEMIS)
This was quite an odd morning. Themis actually WANTED to go to the junkyard today rather than just mope about on her own. This meant that the magician in training was in an optimistic mood, which lately, only happened every now and then. As probably already noted by half of the tribe, Themis wasn’t the most outgoing cat. She tended to mind her own business, and all this hype about the ball somewhat aggravated her. She knew she shouldn’t be aggravated, after all, it wasn’t as if it was a big deal, she was just making it out to be one.
Okay okay, so maybe this ball WAS a big deal, for her at least. She was coming of age, meaning the whole tribe would be watching her. She enjoyed others watching her when she was performing magic; however, since she wouldn’t be able to perform during her ceremony, the thought of all those eyes on her made her slightly nervous.
Zapping into the junkyard in a shower of sparkles, Themis dusted a few straggling sparks off of her fur before glancing around. Instantly she noticed her father with Munkustrap; however, she felt it best to leave them alone for the time being. Oh well, she would just entertain herself in some way, form, or fashion.

{{Don't have access to my previous post; but I want to get something up. I want to get more activity darnit!!!}}
SOMMER
Shrugging in an irritable way, but then sighing deeply, Sunny sat down next to Avisae and leant her head against her knees when she pulled them up to her chest.
"I'm restless, irritable and I just don't feel right. Not sick, but... you know." Frowning slightly as she glanced across the yard. "I feel like there's something wrong here, but I can't put my finger on it. It's like... bad things are coming."
Looking over at the older queen with wide blue eyes, brimming at the edges with tears.
"Am I going crazy??" She asked with a sniff.
ADRIEL
Grinning at Cupio, he clapped a paw on the other tom's shoulder before smiling at Admetus and Alonzo.
"Mornin' Alonzo, Metus. Uhm, yeah. It's early." He chuckled, rubbing his paws through his headfur again and sighed. "I dunno; kinda just woke up. Didn't feel like going back to sleep, though I can't figure out why. Usually it's a roll over, pull the covers up and snuggle in for a bit more."
