In reply to: Azeca 's message, "TREE CLIMBING! FUN!" on 15:16:36 10/11/02 Fri

Spotting the cubs first, the limber tan waves with a free forehand at Bhylek, grinning confidently. Less than a centimeter of claw length actually impales the rock-hard, ridged bark, and as for his tailblade, he uses sheer pressure to maintain a minimum balance. Bright blue eyes sparkling, the 'talented slacker' grins cheerfully as the femmes arrive. Gerwyn's first and successful attempt heartens him - most tans are shy and afraid to try new things, but from the look of it, these two females are going to be fun! "Good girl, 'Wyn," he purrs, then turns his narrow muzzle to watch Azeca's antics. Laughing freely, the male also adds, "Nice show, Az'ca."

Tew yawns and stretches langorously, a stunt that would knock most any Korat from an upright, standing position on a broad branch -- let alone dangling from the trunk of a massive kūsani tree! Clearing his throat raspily, the tan laughs. "First things first, ladies. Tans are scorned for our lack of sturdiness, our often-small stature, and our passive nature. Not pacifist, mind you, just passive. We're going to work on the last one first. Passivity will get you killed in the stunts that you're going to mimic, hear?" The grin fades somewhat and Tew gives his companions a stern look. "I don't want to see you hurt, let alone killed, got that? Atumi accuses me of being big-hearted, and perhaps I am, but I've never gotten a student killed. I don't plan on starting with you." Robin's-blue eyes twinkle with the return of humor, "And yes, I imply that Shula and Atumi aren't as careful with lives as I am."

The rich golden Korat laughs. "Now that I'm done with the warning, follow me." With the utmost of ease, he contracts his abdomen and haunch muscles and using that vital piece of leverage provided by his tailblade's placement against the bark, erupts upwards, sailing parallel to the massive trunk. Sheer momentum propels him a good twenty, thirty meters up, before the male takes it upon himself to bring his wiry limbs into motion and, well... he runs up the tree. Using no claws whatsoever. Once the trunk, which is dozens of meters wide at the base, narrows to a meter or so in width, Tew stops and arranges himself in his previous dangling position, grinning and not in the least out of breath.

"C'mon ladies! It's not that difficult! And remember... no claws or blade!"
