"No worries," she replied, glancing to her arctic companion with sunfire eyes. "An honorable fight should be between man and man, a hunt between beast and beast," she repeated a tenet she'd heard many times. "That doesn't mean it always ended up that way, but that's how a fair fight is supposed to go," then adding with a cock of her head, "hence the sword."
Aisha gave a soft purr as Jigano engaged in her teasing, eyes glinting an amused hue as she tugged the buck back. "Cheer up, sure you have white hair but you don't really look a day over 50," another taunt of course, in reality he didn't seem too much older than her. Maybe late twenties, thirties? But hey, he started the old man thing, she was just playing along, as any good comedic spirit would.
"Biggest?" she repeated, then taking a moment to think, "There were lots of wildebeest on the plains surrounding my city, my family and I would try to hunt them sometimes." Non shifting leopards wouldn't dare, wildebeest were far bigger creatures. But the leopardkin, they did have a slight advantage when it came to strategy and numbers, as opposed to the naturally solitary cats.
