[Yeah, but BOTH the gals who've played Tigress in the past have bailed on us, hewylewis... Aw, screw it, I'm playin' Tigress. lol.[/i]
"Yes, you should have." Tigress said, slowly walking up to Jiang and looking down at the other tiger, hands planted on her hips as she examined him with those fiery eyes of hers. "But it is in the past. Worrying about it now will only serve to distract you. At least you have saved Simba, and driven off Tai Lung." She said calmly. But that should have been me fighting Tai Lung, it should have been my skills that forced him to flee! I trained my entire life for this, and you... You just... She couldn't even finish that thought, what with how jumbled her thoughts were. Outwardly, she remained perfectly stoic and calm, maintaining that neutral expression of hers. But inwardly, she wasn't sure what to think. I suppose I simply wish I could have fought off Tai Lung, and finally made Master Shifu proud... She finally thought. The striped feline banished her thoughts from her mind before anyone noticed that her mind was elsewhere. "Now, after Simba is healed, I think it would be wise of us to retreat to our little home away from home, so that we may rest and meditate upon our next course of action." She said, cracking a very small and incredibly rare smile.
Jiang slowly rose to his paws again, brushing a little dust off his furry chest as he did so. "Sounds good to me." He said, returning Tigress's smile, before looking around at the other members of the Furious Five, and waiting for their responses.

"Tiger is right," said Monkey. "Let us go back to camp."
"Sounds good to me," said Viper.

A couple minutes later, the Furious Five [+1] headed away from Pride Rock and towards their camp. Jiang and Tigress were both utterly silent, each too wrapped up in their own thoughts to participate in any conversation their comrades might have started.

Simba smiled faintly and nodded as he got up. "Yeah, yeah I am, Nala..." He replied, after having sat up. "What about you? Tai Lung didn't harm you, did he?"

Just then, Zazu flew up. "Sire, what if that demonic Leopard returns?" he asked, in a panicked voice.

"I don't really know, Zazu. I hope that those two tigers and their companions return and help us fight him off again... If they don't, I think we'll be left with no choice but surrender. He's too powerful and too fast for any of us to fight." Simba replied softly. "I don't like it, but I do not think that whoever that snow leopard is would think twice about slaughtering all of us if we acted against him."
"So... Anyone have any ideas why Tai Lung is here? I'm willing to bet that his little vacation here isn't for a change in scenery." Jiang asked, turning his head to survey the Furious Five as he walked.
Tigress shook her head. "I have no idea... And watch where you are going, Jiang."
Her advice came a moment to late, for the tiger, who was so busy looking at the others, failed to notice a tree smack dab in the middle of his path. He turned his head towards his path just in time to have a face-first collision with the tree.

"Next time, keep your eyes open," Crane said, perched on Jiang's shoulder. He then raised a brow at him and quietly said. "I know why you're acting weird. You have a crush on Tigress, don't you?"

The tiger, sitting on his tail-end upon the ground where he had landed after his encounter with said tree, shook his head a few times to clear away the effects from the impact, then turned his gaze towards Crane. "Uh..." He paused, then glanced back to the rest of the group to make sure they were still moving off. Which they were. Apparently, they had decided that if Jiang had managed to become the first warrior in history to be defeated by a tree, Crane would inform them.
Now safe in the knowledge that the others, especially Tigress herself, were just out of earshot, the tiger responded to the surprisingly insightful avian's query. "I guess that's the best way to describe it... It's just..." Jiang sighed and let a tired and humorless chuckle slip from him. "What chance does a fellow like me, have with a beautiful, strong, independent, and amazing warrior like herself?"
"Viper, have you noticed Jiang's unusual behavior today? It's almost as if his mind isn't all there... Do you think something is distracting him?" Tigress asked, turning her head to Master Viper's current locale.

Viper giggled. "I recognize that kind of behavior," she said, smiling. "I think Master Jiang has a crush on you."

[Glad to see you back! I was beginning to worry that this was gonna die!]
Tigress froze in her tracks and her eyes went wide. "Are you joking, Viper?" She asked. After a few moment's pause, she looked back over her shoulder at Jiang and Crane, who were far behind them. "What should I do? He's handsome, a good warrior, and seems honorable, but... I mean... I don't know what to do!" She admitted, ears laying back and heat rising to her cheeks.

Tigress looked back over her shoulder at the approaching lioness. "I've never even been on a date before! How am I supposed to figure out how to ask Jiang on a date!? Especially when we've got a maniacal snow leopard running amok!"

Viper smiled. "Queen Nala, you're embarrassing her."

Tigress's eyes widened to near dinner-plate status for a split second, and if it weren't for her cheek fur, it would be easy to see that she was blushing. Apparently, the idea of going to a place where another couple became lovers didn't exactly appeal to her more sensible side, yet on the other side of the coin, a hidden romantic side to her personality loved the idea of going somewhere nice and quiet with Jiang. "Thank you for the offer, Queen Nala, but I don't think it would be wise for Jiang and I to travel very far on a first date. Not with Tai Lung on the loose." She finally said, her sensible side winning a minor battle in the internal war over how to deal with the now seemingly inevitable date with Jiang. "But I saw a place nearby that I think I will ask him to accompany me to tonight." She added after a moment's pause, her romantic side winning a major victory, and thus, the war. The place she was thinking of was a small rocky hill not far from where her and her comrades were staying, and if her guess was right, the top of the hill would have a beautiful view of the night sky. Bonus points for the fact that there was quite a few shrubs surrounding the very top, thus giving a good degree of privacy.
