Mune Olo'eyktan [Neteyam x Aonung]

Part 143

Assuming everyone is still at Rotxo and Lo'ak's new home, they head straight there. Tuktirey isn't there, and neither is Lo'ak, but Tsireya, Rotxo, and Kiri are in the middle of a conversation.

The moment they see him walk in with Aonung and Spider, they pause and give the "new" Na'vi an odd look.

Spider- Guess who, skxawngs.

Kiri's jaw drops and utter disbelief plasters on her face.

Kiri- No fucking way.

Tsireya- Spider?!

Spider- Hell yeah!

Tsireya hops up from her spot on the floor with excitement and goes over to Spider, checking out his new form.

Spider- Look, now I can wag my tail.

Tsireya- (giggles)

Spider- More of a sway though, really.

The others look at the wide dimpled smile on Tsireya's face and know exactly what's up.

Aonung- Okay, he's Na'vi now, that's great. Let's go for a ride.

Neteyam and Rotxo laugh at the familiar reaction, it's a mild version of how he reacted when Tsireya first showed interest in Lo'ak.

Kiri- Lo'ak took Tuk home, he'll be back.

Spider- Need him to hurry the hell up, I'm so fucking excited bro. I've been waiting forever to show you guys.

Rotxo- I'll go get him then.

With a smile on his face he leaves his friends continuing to converse in his home, and is stopped by one of the many warriors that are handing out cloaks to everyone. After receiving one, he observes the tan color, then continues on with it hanging over his shoulder.

In his path, he spots someone familiar, and that someone also spots him and waves enthusiastically before running over to him.

Talon- Rotxo!

The boy's friends follow at a normal pace, each shaking their head at him.

Rotxo- Hey.

Talon- Pretty neat cloaks right? It's like a blanket that hugs you.

Rotxo- (laughs)

Talon- Up to anything today?

Rotxo- Just about to go for a ride with my friends.

Talon- Can we come?

Coona- Dude, our first introduction with them was a fight. You think they wanna hang out with us?

Shore- In our defense, Aonung started the shit.

Rotxo- I can't really argue with that.

Bay'an- That doesn't mean they'd wanna hang out with us though.

Rotxo- Well, I would. You guys seem pretty fun.

Talon- Is that a yes?

Rotxo- I guess so. You need a reintroduction anyway.

Talon- Yes!

Rotxo- Meet us on the beach in a few.

Talon- No problem.

He continues on, heading to the Sully den, but before he reaches it, he spots Lo'ak heading away from the direction, also carrying a cloak. The two end up going back to their den together, while discussing what they'll do on their ride.

Race, hunt, revisit that cave they stayed in when stranded before to cook what they caught. The list goes on.

When they get back to the den, Rotxo frowns at the sight of the Paltu brothers standing at his entrance. Yune had shown up shortly after he left, since he was following Neteyam and Aonung. Na'haji and Sorfé have only just arrived a few minutes ago.

He pushes past Na'haji, not caring if it was rude, and Lo'ak follows behind him. When he sees the unfamiliar Na'vi, Lo'ak stops in his tracks with furrowed brows.

Lo'ak- Who the hell is this?

Spider- (gasps) You don't recognize me? I'm hurt, cuz.

His eyes suddenly widen and his mouth drops, making Spider laugh at him.

Lo'ak- Holy shit, Spider! Bro, you're fuckin' Na'vi!

Spider- Hell yeah!

The two high five each other enthusiastically.

Kiri- It's fine if Sorfé comes along, right?

Rotxo- Sure. Yune is fine too, but I suggest thinking twice about that one.

Rotxo glares at the oldest Paltu boy, making Spider chuckle a bit, since he isn't fond of him either. He mainly doesn't like the way Tsireya looks at him, and the dislike grows when she sticks up for him.

Tsireya- Don't be mean to him, Rotxo. Second chances, remember? You were forgiven for bad actions once, why can't he be?

Kiri- She's got you there.

Rotxo- Fine. By the way, I invited some people too.

Lo'ak- Who?

Rotxo- Talon, and his friends.

Aonung- Why the hell would you invite them?

Lo'ak- Yeah, what were you thinking?

Rotxo- Second chances, right?

Aonung- . . .

Lo'ak- . . .

Rotxo- Yeah, now both of you can shut the hell up and deal with it, you overprotective shits.

Spider bursts into laughter, and the others laugh at the offended looks on their faces.

Spider- Damn, Lo'ak, what'd you do?

Lo'ak- Absolutely nothing.

Lo'ak exchanges a look with Kiri, and she just shrugs, not knowing what to do with Rotxo's fast changing mood.

Rotxo- Think we should wear the cloaks?

Sorfé- They will get wet in the water.

Kiri- So leave them.

Spider- No, they're waterproof. It'll slide right off, Norm said so.

Sorfé- Neat.

Aonung- We ready to go?

Rotxo- Yeah, Talon is gonna meet us on the beach.
