Nexeu had decided to practice his swordsmanship in an empty place in the park. Living with his pride, he was usually at a loss for the room required to get an adequate workout. He'd found today's exercises weren't the only thing on his mind and that had caused some stumbles with usually precise attacks. Shaking his head, the feline Netjer decided to put away his kopesh and walk for a bit to clear his head. He'd try practicing again tomorrow.

Nehemiah had found himself out for a stroll in the park, the need to get away from the mostly feline contingent of his pack/pride prevailing on him. Their celebrations of their main goddess always seemed to bring more of them around. Yet still he'd remained alone, both by chance and by choice. He'd come close awhile ago when he'd briefly caught the eye of a pretty female, but that had ended in nothing. Shaking his head he ambled on, armor glinting softly as his swords swayed in their scabbards.

Nexeu walked, letting his mind wander for a bit before the glint of sun off of armor caught his attention. He did look up at the canine and allowed himself to smile. He was definitely someone interesting. He allowed himself a moment to appreciate what was right there before him. He did, after a moment of internal deliberation, decide to approach the Netjer.
"I have to admit, you're an illuminating sight." He said, looking him over again appreciatively. "I come here every day, and I have never seen you grace the park with your presence." He would hate to think he'd only just missed the Netjer there until now.

Large jackal like ears twitched slightly, his thin tail whipping lazily behind him as the canid netjer regarded the, wait, was that really? a feline netjer? He'd heard of them of course, but the only ones he'd seen before were females. " Thank you " his relatively deep, though not quite baritone level deep, voice rumbled out, softly. " I prefer not to remove my armor while I'm out, one never knows when a warrior's assistance will be needed. " He found himself giving the other male a bit of a once over of his own, even as he felt the other's eyes all but caressing him. " Most often I train closer to the temple, as my most usual sparring partners tend to be a pair of masked priestesses, between training and missions I don't get much down time like this "

He nodded. "I can understand the strange amount of downtime." He did offer a somewhat friendly smile, unsure of what to do exactly. "You train with masked priestesses? I train with a sword dancer." Thinking on the male's words, he did chuckle. "As for the armor, I think it's fitting on you, It brings out your eyes." He said with a wink.

Well that had certainly gone above just being kind, was the other male honestly flattering him? or perhaps even, more? He wasn't sure, it had been a long time since anyone had seen him in a potentially romantic light after all. " Things have been odd around the city as of late, so I figured it was best to help the guards out and patrol a bit myself. But yes, when I'm not doing that I enjoy keeping my skills as sharp as my blades. Your own armor suits you as well " by the nose of Anubis was he bad at this, clearly his interpersonal skills were greatly lacking.

Nexeu smiled. "Why, thank you. I still cannot believe my fortune to have met someone so...pleasant in both looks and personality." He was not good at this, he was a warrior. A little hot-headed, but a warrior. They didn't usually have a way with words! He smiled, trying to mentally brush off his own awkwardness at this. "How much downtime do you suspect you'll have today?"

Nehemiah nodded slightly " my master taught my friends and I many lessons, keeping oneself humble and polite always stuck with me as much as the true skills on the field that I was taught. " Gods he must seem like a pompous jerk, or worse, perhaps even a cliché with how much he spoke about battle and things relating to battle. " I'm not certain offhand, but I don't have to leave immediately, why? what do you propose? "

He smiled. This one he liked a lot. "I was thinking about perhaps a walk, or maybe even lunch?" He did blink, and mentally kicked himself when he remembered something. His ears flattened a moment before he offered a shy smile. "My name is Nexeu...I..forgot to say that earlier."

He blinked slightly, and frowned shaking his head " gods where are my manners.. I'm Nehemiah " He could smack himself for the way he'd been behaving during all of this. He truly must be rusty when it came down to interacting with others outside of his own pack. " Both of those sound good to me, it'd be nice to kind of escape all of this time travel craziness that's been going on "

He chuckled. "Let's be fair here, my manners were lacking more." He smiled, going to start walking and only hoping the canine would follow. "Forgive me, if I sound a bit off. I am not familiar with talking to people that are not in my pride."

The fact that the other was so relaxed about it helped the dark furred canid to relax about his slip up. He ambled along, long legs keeping up easily with the feline. " Its not a big deal to me, other than work I hardly talk to anyone outside of my own, well, its difficult to know if its a pack or a pride. "

He chuckled. "Feel free to use the term that makes you the most comfortable." He said as he offered the Canine another small smile. He wanted this, admittedly handsome, male to feel comfortable. You could hardly learn of someone if they weren't, after all, and Nexeu wanted to know a lot about him.

The bushi gave a slight nod in return " its just our pack has as many canids, both netjer and sphinx, as it does cats. There seem to be a rather large number of weres as well. " He found himself comfortable enough to share that tidbit about his living situation. Perhaps something could come of this, the feline was quite attractive after all.

He nodded, smiling. "We have no weres or anything. The feline persuasion wins in sheer numbers with my pride, however we all mostly get along." He smiled at the male. He actually found himself hoping things could work out, and now thanking himself for being a bit more clumsy than usual today in his practice. He did look around, trying not to stare too much and look strange. "It's a nice day." He managed out, thinking. "Though I prefer dusk, myself."
