Tumble stopped flapping his arms to clap his paws yet again. "You got it on the first try! Great job!" Though having fun was his top priority, with Tugger around Tumble had unconsciously felt the need to look "cool" in front of the new queen. Now that there wasn't that sort of pressure and a game had begun, he was in his element and growing more excited by the minute. "Now it's your turn! Just think of something and do the motion and I'll try to guess it." He let out a slight chuckle and watched the other kitten in anticipation.

Maria grinned happily. "Oh my gosh, I got it? Ha, I'm awesome!" She winked. She frowned, trying to think of something to copy. She thought about it for a minute, before she began to pace around, snarling and constantly letting out loud mewling sounds, hoping she looked menacing. "Well, Tumble, what am I?"

Tumblebrutus frowned in concentration, watching Maria closely. When she paced around growling, he thought perhaps she was pretending to be a dog. But then she let out mewling sounds. So...cat? But would she do something so easy? Maybe she's just trying to trick me! He scratched his head, annoyed that he was taking so long when she'd got his so quickly. Finally, he decided to just blurt out a guess. "Uhhhhh a...wild...cat?"

"Well, it certainly acts like a wild animal...but no, it was a dog." She said, laughing. "Sorry, I haven't learned to snarl like a dog yet." She added, shrugging. "Anyway, it's your turn now, go ahead!" She sat down and waited, gazing at him eagerly.

"Ahh, I should've known that," Tumble cried, putting a paw to his forehead, completely embarrassed. "Good one! Err, right, my turn, hmm..." He thought for a moment. Probably time to do some harder guesses, yeah? What would be more challenging... He grinned, finally getting an idea. He put a vacant expression on his face, even letting his tongue hang out slightly. Then he began walking - or, more like stomping and shuffling - back and forth, letting his arms flop around limply. This could be really easy or really hard...

Maria laughed. "It's alright, we all mess up!" She gave him a grin. She climbed up onto the tire and sat there, waiting for him to come up with an idea. She drew one paw over her ear lazily, but looked up at him when he began stomping around. "Er..." She couldn't mess up now, she'd been doing so well! "I dunno why, but that reminds me of a sloth? Though that's probably not it...Either that or a human?"

Tumble stopped stomping around and laughed. "Yeah, you got it - the second one, I mean, a human." He hoped Maria didn't have a human family, at least not one she was terribly fond of - otherwise she might be offended at his depiction of humans. True, he knew they weren't all that dumb as he'd made them look...still, his would-be human "family" had just left the door open and let him escape...so they couldn't be very intelligent, could they? Shrugging, he scratched his head. "Say...what is a sloth? That's a new one to me."

"Huh, that was very accurate!" Maria laughed. While she knew not all humans were stupid, some of them seemed to walk around just as Tumble had demonstrated and a lot of them seemed to hate cats. She stayed away from them. She looked up at him in surprise when he said he didn't know what a sloth was. Then she smacked her forehead. "Right, you wouldn't know...My mother mentioned them. She said that her former human family had a picture of an animal that just lays around all day and her humans called them sloths. She usually teased me about being one when I was being lazy." She explained.

Tumble nodded as Maria explained what a sloth was. So, that was what happened when you spent actual time with humans... you started looking at pictures of exotic creatures. "So, it sounds more or less like a human in animal form!" he laughed. "So I can see why that was one of your guesses. Hmm...of course, dogs do that too...but they can't walk like people...anyway..." He grinned. This was turning out to be a good game! "Your turn!"

Maria laughed. "Yeah, exactly!" She nodded, grinning. "It's amazing how much humans actually know! Or perhaps my mom was just very nostalgic about them...But they seemed cool!" She made a face when he mentioned dogs. "Ew, yeah...dogs suck." She sat up straight and thought about what to imitate. "Hmm...this should be easy, but...here goes!" She spread her paws and started meowing loudly in a tone which she hoped seemed like squawking.

Tumblebrutus tilted his head slightly, trying to decide what she was meant to be. Her paws were spread out, so maybe a bird? But he'd already done bird, so perhaps not... Then she made the squawking sounds. What were those birds called that humans kept as pets...? "A...chicken?!" he blurted out.

Maria grinned. "Well, it's a bird, I guess it's close enough!" She dropped back onto four paws. "Your turn, then!" She sat down again, waiting.

Tumble laughed. "Guess I tried too hard that time!" He scratched his head, trying to think what he should act out next. He wanted to think of something difficult, since Maria seemed to be so good with these guesses! Remembering a small creature he'd seen crawling around the other day, he got his inspiration. Crouching low to the ground, he crawled around for a few moments, then pretended to fall over and lay on his back kicking all for legs in the air helplessly as if he couldn't get himself turned back over. Maybe this one would stump her!

Maria frowned from her spot on the tire. "What could that be..." She thought, laughing as he laid on his back. It was quite a hilarious sight, him wiggling "helplessly". It was some kind of creepy crawly...she knew that. But which? She flicked her tail a few times as she thought about her guess. "Hmmm...that reminds me of a cockroach?" she decided to guess.

Tumble hadn't been thinking of a specific insect - truth be told, he couldn't hardly remember the names of any, so just generally figured to be some sort of creepy crawler. But Maria's mention of specifically a Cockroach reminded him of the Ball, and the costumes Jennyanydots made the kittens wear. This thought was so funny that he started giggling uncontrollably, forgetting he was still lying on his back. He choked out between snorts, "You - you got it!" At last he got ahold of his laughter and, noticing what a ridiculous position he was still in, got back onto his paws. "One of the adults here used to catch cockroaches," he explained somewhat sheepishly, "and at the last Jellicle Ball she dressed us up like them for a dance." He grinned again at the memory. "Errr... your turn!"
