*8Ash raises his glass to toast this**

"Ashi-sama??" He's so shocked. "You... think that really?? Am I really that..." He's so red. Do his fiances think this too??"

[miraiq]

The silence.. is painful.

Now if you asked Caelus if he r e g r e t t e d going to visit Pela and Serval to watch one of their concerts, he would say absolutely n o t . He enjoys spending time with his friends, getting to catch up and see them enjoy their hobbies. But he will say that it was f a r louder than he was expecting it to be- uncomfortably so. Though in r e t r o s p e c t , the silver should have. Still.. he ended up having to stay near the back of the venue, only willing to go half way towards the stage if absolutely n e c e s s a r y . He had also refused to leave until the show had ended, wanting to provide moral s u p p o r t the entire way through, so he put up with the absurd volume for his companions. Caelus h a d found the two performers later and given his praise towards their t a l e n t before politely excusing himself.

Which led him b a c k to the Express, where he had stayed in his room to avoid having to s u b j e c t himself to any further excitement. It then dawned on him as the change in volume, having gotten used to the b o i s t e r o u s concert to the eery quiet in his room.. so quiet that he slowly became keenly aware of the humming of the train- which he then realized was i n f a c t the humming coming from the Stellaron, not the Express. Just another r e m i n d e r of his non-humanity........... Great. The silver p a r t i a l l y wished he was back at the venue having all thoughts drowned out by the music, but he also knew that he was n o t going to stay sane if that same volume had returned. A c o m p r o m i s e , then.

It was late enough that everyone was typically having time to themselves, winding down or just r e l a x i n g at the end of the system day. So, the lad deemed it safe to come out and sneak his way passed the others' doors into the main cabin, and immediately went to the p h o n o g r a p h . It was typically left on, so he figures it wouldn't be a problem to change the s o n g s that were playing and to mess with the volume a tad. Not loud enough to b o t h e r the others, of course! Just loud enough that Caelus could hear it but no where near as loud as the concert had been- a comfortable in-between.

Once he found a song s u i t a b l e to keep his attention, the silver made his way over to one of the couches surrounding the cabin, sitting poorly by facing the back of the furnishing to stare out the window- a leg u n d e r him, torso turned to the side to make his star watching easier, an arm perched over the back of the couch. Sometimes looking at the stary sky helped ease him, other times it can upset him further.. them being yet a n o t h e r reminder as he basically carries an equivalent to a star in his chest, yet they sometimes made him feel at h o m e .. It was always a guessing game which reaction it would be. T h a n k f u l l y it seemed to be the ladder, as his breathing s l o w e d , vision gradually losing focus.

If he truly were the trash racoon he a c t s like at times, Caelus is sure said animal ears would perk up at the s o u n d he can hear in the distance. He suspects it was Puffball r o a m i n g around, as the creature has no real rest time- just like him. Yet unlike him, Puffball could get sick, the poor thing having s p i t out a few balls of goo that they assumed would be it's version of g e t t i n g s i c k . How, no one was sure. Hell even the digital creature could be more life-like than Caelus, as the trailblazer has n e v e r gotten sick, never had blisters, never had cuts or bruises that lasted m o r e than a day thanks to his synthetic body, and possibly the S t e l l a r o n just amplifying it's self restoring capabilities. It could also just be the Path of the Trailblaze keeping him h e a l t h y , but he didn't believe that was entirely the truth.

A deep sigh escapes him, head l o w e r i n g to rest against his folded arm. If it wasn't Puffball, and someone had wandered out of their room, he doesn't think they'd come to the main cabin. Even if they do, Caelus can l i k e l y pretend to be asleep- all of those aboard the Express knew it was c o m m o n to find him 'powered down' at i n c o n s i s t e n t intervals and in random locations, so he'll just play into t h a t should he be found.

For now, the trailblazer will s i m p l y do his best to let his mind wander, try to focus on the m u s i c playing from across the room, and keep himself from spiraling any further downward. Face n u d g e s into the crook of his arm, effectively using it as a pillow while keeping his i n a t t e n t i v e gaze taking in the vast expanse of space.

Yo, that Kemono Friends screencap cements that S2 takes place way the fuck down the line from S1. Cause I remember reading something in that guidebook with all the deep sand star lore that kemonoplasm retains the memories of a friend, but if it degrades between generations of friends. Like how Serval remembered that one lady whose name I can't remember from the Hotel episode.

that would make sense, and would also explain why season 2 serval’s art style looks like shit changed so drastically; the friends seem to look slightly different in the later generations. compare old generations servals from gen 1-3(?)[the serval from the anime’s season 1 can be assumed to be third generation, but it is not confirmed whether this is the case or not.] from left to right: gen 1 (manga), gen 2 (game), and gen 3(?)(anime). 

generation 1: manga serval. this serval looks similar to the one we know, but the main difference is that her “M” marking on her forehead is more widened and is segmented into two reverse “V”s. while not seen in this manga screencap, the tips of her ears go from orange to black with no gradient. her ears have fur tufts inside that are noticeably larger than that of her two descendants. interestingly enough, this serval that appeared as the first serval in the kemono friends timeline is friends with a caracal, who is the current companion(?) of serval in the currently airing season 2. being a manga-exclusive variant, she has no voice actress. 

generation 2: mobile game serval. here, her ears have developed a gradient, and her “M” has grown to be more tall/thin, as the “V”s have converged a bit. there is still a bit of separation, but it is very slight now. this serval was the one shown in the anime as the past companion of mirai, as mirai was a prominent character in the mobile game that preceded the anime. kaban’s serval (the gen 3) cries when she sees the holographic recording of this previous serval, implying that she holds latent memories of her time with mirai and that she is a reincarnation of this gen 2 serval, which is why it is assumed that she is the gen 3 serval. she is voiced by nonaka ai. 

generation 3 (presumed): anime serval (season 1). this serval has a more pronounced shift from orange ear to black eartip than the gen 2 serval, resembling the gen 1 serval a bit. her “M” marking is fully attached at this point. as mentioned before, she seems to hold memories of mirai and the gen 2 serval’s adventures. this is the serval that traveled with kaban and was featured as the secondary protagonist of the anime’s season 1. she is voiced by yuka ozaki. 

generation 4(?): anime serval (season 2). this serval clearly has no soul, as evidenced by her blank stare and flat art style. she is friends with a new caracal and i assume that she is also friends with a character that looks like the equivalent of paper jam kaban. her ears have a noticeable pink tinge, and her “M” has widened out a bit.

A1Savannahs F3 Sasha has come back for another visit while Mom and Dad go on vacation. Take a look on our website to see the kittens we currently have available: www.A1Savannahs.com

Savannah Trait Differences Between Generations

F1 Savannahs: If you are someone that enjoys being at home and spending tons of time with your animals an F1 Savannah is an option for you. Since these cats are closest to the African Serval they are the ones that require the most attention. If you are headed to bed, the Savannah will not be far behind you. If you are cooking in the kitchen, the Savannah will be there helping filleting the chicken. If you are doing laundry, you know you need help un-folding all the close you just folded. F1 Savannahs need that constant love and attention to remain that loving companion for you and your family. If you or your family travels frequently, or are away from home for 8 hours, then we would not recommend an F1 Savannah for you.

F2 Savannahs: Much like your F1 Savannah your F2’s will also need a lot of time put in to keep that loving and affectionate personality. Although your second generation Savannahs are a little more laid back and they enjoy their cuddle time on the sofa, and that playtime in the shower. With an F2 Savannah you have a little more freedom with still that big exotic look. This is a perfect cat for anyone that wants to spend a little time away from home but still have that larger than normal cat that everyone awes over.

F3 Savannahs: Now that we are entering the middle generations of Savannahs; this is where the more domestic traits come out, just with the added perks of the social aspect of the Servals. F3 Savannahs enjoy nap time, playtime, shower time, cooking time, etc. They will come when you call their name and know when they are being mischievous. F3’s still have that exotic demeanor in which they want their personal cat time to bask in the sun or grooming in the privacy of their kitty home.

F4 Savannahs: F4 Savannahs are very personable and seem to want to know what is going on at all times. They greet your guest with frequent head butts and sample all food left unattended. F4 Savannahs enjoy sleeping in the comfort of your body heat and waking you in the middle of the night for play time. They are very intelligent and seem to get into everything, in a playful manner of course. They do great with other animals and children, especially if they think they have a new friend to play with.

F5 and F6 Savannahs: Lower generation Savannahs are quiet honestly one of the best companions a person could have. They are so loyal to their owners and show so much love and affection to those around them. They still have the dog-like characteristics as the higher generations, but are also well equipped with their domestic behaviors. They love to play with toys, specifically for them, or not. You will often find that they enjoy hiding their favorite toys underneath rugs or in shoes. F5 and generations below will tug at your heart strings and will make you never want to let go. These Savannahs are very adaptive are an all around great cat for anyone.

For more information about other generations please take a look on our website: www.A1Savannahs.com

The Savannah cat is a lively, adventurous pussycat that enjoys lifestyles within the fast lane. Her athletic frame allows her to leap to very excessive locations, and her questing spirit leads her to take well to walks on a leash, are trying to find out water to play in, and carefully explore her surroundings. #SavannahCat is so confident, alert, curious, and friendly cat. See more details Subscribe this Channel: https://goo.gl/i7yw8p Whilst some cats are retiring types, maximum savannah cats are gracious hosts who will greet your guests with aplomb, in addition to near companions who will need to spend time interacting with you. Make sure you've got a well-developed humorousness in case you live with this sort of cats; they may be no longer above gambling jokes on you. It takes an especially sensible man or woman to outwit a Savannah cat. You may want to interchange faucet styles to prevent them from turning on their own personal waterworks or attach childproof locks to hold them out of cabinets. Don’t neglect to protect breakables. Put them away where the Savannah cat can’t knock them over as she makes one of her well-known leaps, and make certain electrical cords are blanketed from gnawing kittens. Provide a Savannah cat with toys in an effort to rise to difficult play and interactive video games in an effort to undertaking her thoughts. To stay happily with a Savannah cat, plan to spend plenty of time interacting together with her. Make sure she has thrilling toys to occupy her whilst you’re now not around. Reward her whilst she does things you like, and redirect her energy and pursuits when she does things you don’t like. Guard special assets through placing them out of reach. If all of this appears like an excessive amount of work, pick an exceptional cat. Savannah Cat Size: The Savannah cat is generally defined as a medium-size breed. Her weights can variety from 8 to twenty kilos, every now and then greater. Adult males are large than girls. History of the Savannah Cat: The Savannah cat was advanced after a domestic cat crossed with a Serval — a medium-length African wild cat — gave birth to a kitten on April 7, 1986. After then the kitten was named Savannah cat. After listening to approximately her, breeders Patrick Kelly and Joyce Sroufe joined forces to create a brand new breed. The various breeds that contributed to the savannah’s improvement were noticed cat breeds including Bengals and Egyptian Maus; oriental shorthairs; and a few average Joe domestic shorthairs. Outcrossing is not authorized now that the breed is established. The worldwide cat association (TICA) started registering Savannah cat in 2001. The enterprise granted the breed full reputation — called championship repute — in 2012.

@cirquedenightmares

Sakura, you can have both. They will love you so much and Makoto will have the benefits of a trained prince plus an assassin.

"B-both..." Goodness... it would make things easier... when he thought of either prince he flushed from head to toe. He took a moment to breathe, his hands over his heart. "...I... I should talk to... to Ashi..." If only because he was feeling nervous about the entire thing... and with the revelations of their parentage, he knew the choice would be met with friction. Not that he cared about that so much...

[akumanoken]

@cirquedenightmares

Ash is more than happy to add more 'sickness' to Fujimaru~ He is after all a vampiric lil serval

LOL trust me when I say just having you there is giving him no end of sickness and stress. After all, he's now going to be bound to the queen of darkness by marriage. He's getting just what he wanted, but in a way that makes him sick to his stomach.

He's living in abject fear now because he's starting to think oh no if they know what's going on with Sakura I'll have to deal with the worst possible scenario. Mostly this is because had does so little to check on his own child that he doesn't even know that they know. All he knows is that they've been talking and Sakura has made a decision to marry.

I'm pretty sure he's not even aware that it's to two princes either like he assumes it's just one.

Fujimaru is so used to ignoring his child that even in the most important of decisions and the knowledge that everything around him is changing he's too busy nursing his stomach to care if the child is happy or in danger. All he knows is that it's set as an inconvenience to him.

[akumanoken]

Sakura was sitting in the parlor alone, staring at the jewels spread out before him. It was the most difficult decision of his life thus far. Everything he felt rode on this. Not because anything of substance hung in the balance, but his heart was doing flips and his stomach was in knots.

One was a beautiful brooch, a dandelion of diamonds and gold with the golden pearl nestled along the stem. When he saw it, he thought of Dante, of how they may not see each other often...with the need to make sure his own country is taken care of, but just as dandelion puffs drift in the wind, the red string that ties them together will stretch as long as it needs.

And then the second he pulled was a pair of earrings, a diamond leaf holding onto the golden pearls, and he thought of Bael, of how wonderful they would look dangling from his ears. He thought of the woodwork he'd done and how nimble and agile he was...

He thought of them both and his heart seemed to swell in his chest. And ache as well. He was nervous, despite everything that Ashi had told him... And yet if not for the serval, he would never have gotten this far, still stuck between brothers who both tangled him up in red string.

But he had made his decision now, and with what he was doing surely rumor was spreading in the castle that the princess had finally chosen a prince... he could only imagine everyone's faces when there were two pearls given.

@cirquedenightmares

[akumanoken]

@cirquedenightmares (cont)

Sakura flushed as things were taken from his hand with such an admonishing sound. "Ah but---" the princess could only look between Ash and Jafar with a lost expression. Jafar's coils were slightly chill, and he sighed into the hug. "I'm… there still so much to do, and I don't want to be a disappointment…" He was eager to keep himself working. He needed to prove himself useful as a queen…. perhaps more to himself than to anyone else.

Still, the idea of a spa treatment did sound nice… in his head, he could just feel the delicious warmth of a hot spring bath, but for now, with the other holding him up, he seemed to sag a little. "I… should still…." Sakura was nothing if no stubborn, even if his body had already given into the temptation of rest.

[akumanoken]

Speaking of weddings~ Sakura, now that you are officially engaged to BOTH Bael and Dantè, think it high time to tell your father that it is perhaps in his best interest to let you plot your wedding's course. I mean, your dad ain't looking too good whenever he pops in and sees the boys surrounding you~

@moonxsuncelestials @cirquedenightmares

It was high time, of course, so when Sakura decided it was time to speak with his father his steps were sure as he made his way to the study. He was quite surprised to see a member of the council there, but the man smiled with a bow. "Ah, your Highness I wanted to congratulate you on your engagement…"

The king looked over at the princess, his lips set in a thin line. "Yes, and what brings you here instead of tending to your future husband?? Your wedding shall be soon after all, and we are--"

"That is why I have come here, father," he said softly. "As it will be my wedding to the princes, I believe it is best if the wedding plans are placed in the care of myself and my betrotheds. After all, I want to in--"

"You want to plan the wedding?? As if there is anything special to plan!!" he scoffed. "You are to be wed as is tradition for the royals of Makoto in the grand temple…what else needs to be done??"

"….I do not wish for a traditional wedding." His soft comment made the King's face turn a spectacular shade of scarlet. "Furthermore, I wish to incorporate their traditions so it is not just a ceremony for the people of Makoto but for everyone who will be in attendance… and there will be members of the Thanos royal family in attendance, including Syrina-heika… she will ask to be a part of it and to help plan, and I will be happy to let her. If you wish to help in the planning of our wedding as well, you are more than welcome to do so, but I think it is best for everyone involved if I take over. After all, you don't seem to be too happy with the course I have decided to take."

It was no secret. Knowing that he would be connected to the infamous "Queen of Hell" via marriage wasn't something he had in mind when he laid out his plans all those years ago. Fujimaru stared up at him, clenching his jaw. "And so are you asking me?? Or are you telling me, child?"

Sakura brought himself up, straightening his back. "I am…telling you that I will be planning the wedding. That you have too many things on your plate already and therefore should leave such an occasion for those who are actually able to focus on the task at hand, while you concentrate on ruling Makoto."

The councilman who had been there the whole time, staring between the two of them in nervous interest, spoke up. "I believe the princess has a point. We can leave the wedding to them, I am sure. Meanwhile, we can focus on the other tasks we have at hand. Once Her Majesty comes to visit, there will surely be talks we will want to have about the further nature of our alliances. Should we not prepare for that?"

If Fujimaru had turned toward the councilman, the poor fellow would've been dead on the spot, but he nodded instead with as soft gruff. "Very well, child. Do as you will." it wouldn't be the first time the damned boy would do something like this, he could tell. He wasn't pleased by the way things were going at all.
