Aelius' plan seemed to be working. He had quickly gained ground on the mare and it appears that the mare had realized she wasn't going to be outrunning this stud today and was starting to slow down. Apparently, the two got too close to the bay mare and foal as he could hear the mare squeal and see her chasing after him for a few lengths before falling back to her foal. Besides an ear flicking in her direction Aelius paid no mind to the irate mare.
When he had enough room, Aelius cut in front of the spotted mare he had been chasing and started to slow down himself. The spotted horse seemed to no longer be trying to run and Aelius decided it was time to get flashy and show this mare just how healthy and how much of a good breeding partner and protector her would be. Flagging his tail and bowing his neck, he turned back towards the mare in a wide circle, Aelius made sure to try and show off as much of himself as he could. Well-developed muscles rippled underneath a very glossy golden coat. He wrung his head and tossed his mane to show it's length and beauty to the mare. A nice, healthy mane is always impressive, right?
He watched as the mare slid to a stop on her hocks and flicked an ear back for a brief second. He had never seen a horse stop like she had, it was pretty weird, he wondered if it hurt. He slowed to an energetic floating trot, stretching his neck down and out and then lifting it back up high in the air, chin tucked close to his chest. He nickered softly to the mare every few seconds as he approached. Bouncing to a stop, he stood at an angle to the mare, her nose pointed at his elbow. He swished his tail a little, posturing himself for a brief second so she could take him in up close and then curved his neck to sniff the mare's nose in an introduction. Her heat scent flooded his nose once more, making Aelius excited and itching to deal with it to the point where he just couldn't hold back for another minute without at least trying. Aelius knew his next few actions could very likely not pan out in his favor, but he was going to try regardless.
Taking a couple steps forward, Aelius hovered his nose around the mare's rump, curling his upper lip. Flicking his ears forward, he hurriedly surveyed the lands for other horses. The plains were mostly quiet, but he noticed the mare and foal pair he had passed by earlier not too far away, the mare still looking a bit grumpy. Perhaps they'll still be there for him to pick up once he's done with Ms. Spots. He nibbled gently at the base of the mare's tail, keeping an eye and ear on her head while the other ear swiveled all around listening for potential danger or other nuisance stallions who may try to stop his fun.

Bliss waited nervously on top of that hill for the creature to respond. She really hoped it was a horse she saw and not a predator. A predator would probably be bad for her. For a moment, the figure did not respond, but she could see it moving. She pulled her ears back, tucking her tail and glancing around nervously. Then a few more seconds later, a whinny reached her ears. Bliss instantly perked up, lifting her tail slightly and taking on an alert stance. The horse came galloping over to her and Bliss being desperate herself for contact with another equid, started to carefully pick her way down the hill to meet partway with the horse. She didn't care if it was a mare, a stallion, or gelding, she just wanted to stop being a lone.
Paying more attention to the footing than the progress the other horse was making, Bliss came within inches of stumbling into the large draft mare. She reeled back a few feet in surprise and then paused as she took in the giant mare. Bliss had never seen a mare so big and powerful. She had seen taller horses, but certainly never a horse so thick and muscular. All the horses Bliss had ever met had about the same body type as herself.
Being this close, Bliss knew it was a mare, her heat scent was nearly overwhelming. Bliss hoped the fact wouldn't make the other mare grouchy. Carefully leaning forward, Bliss lightly bumped her nose against the draft mare's to exchange scents. Bliss always considered herself to be normal sized, it a bit on the short side. Being next to this mare though made Bliss feel like she was a foal all over again. This mare seemed alright thus far, but she wasn't totally sure. She gave a playful toss of the head and flagged her tail, inviting the mare to play if she so wished.

Khaalida had noticed the bay stallion long before he saw her. She watched silently as the stallion approached the pond. She didn't quite want to alert him of her presence yet, instead choosing to examine the stallion for signs of weakness. Age could be hard to tell on a horse, but judging by the amount of muscle he has, the proportions of his body, and his fluid movements, she could tell he was neither a young stud or a very old stallion. He had no signs of injury, both new or old, and his coat looked healthy enough.
When the stallion finally noticed her Khaalida, still, kept quiet and simply stared at him as he approached. He stopped and Khaalida arched and extended her neck out towards the stallion, ears pricked and eyes bright in curiosity. He was tall, much taller than himself and of a warmblood breed not often seen out here. Khaalida doesn't even think she's seen any such warmbloods out here her whole life. Most horses were mustangs or grade horses. Sometimes she would see the occasional purebred, but they were usually backyard quality Quarter Horses. No, she had only seen the tall, refined warmbloods bred for jumping in her old life.
Exhaling deeply, she turned away and put her head down to graze, taking a few small steps forward, choosing to purposefully ignore the stallion for now. While Khaalida was deep in her heat, and yes, would like it gone sooner rather than later, the day was still young, she had time. And if the stallion wants her now, if he wants respect from her and for her to pay attention to him, he'll have to earn it and court her. Khaalida wasn't being rude, not in her mind. She kept her body language relaxed, ears turning to listen to a sound or otherwise kept to the sides, eyes soft, and her tail slightly lifted, shooing away the flies when they'd land on her.
