Nobody's a picture perfect,
Everybody's got a dark side.
Do you love me?
Can you love mine?
~xX The Colors of Falling Xx~
Oaka was mulling this over well and good. Then she realized how she had no liabilities. It may feel like it, but she could just harden her heart and leave both of them. But she didn't want to and this led to another train of thought.
"I'm not going with you or him. I'm going to go where I please, and lucky for you two you stallions please me. I'm going to wander between you, him, and myself. Yes, I'll eventually make a decision, but I need some time." She said, looking back at Brumby and making her voice loud enough to be heard by him. Her head then returned her gaze to Poesis, and within her gaze was her defiance and a question if he would protest against what she had declared.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oh no, I can't slow down, I can't hold back,
Though you know I wish I could.
No, there ain't no rest for the wicked,
Until we close our eyes for good.
~xX Devil's Advocate Xx~
Advocate curiously glanced at the dark mare that had come in reply.
"Advocate." He told her, eyes moving over her in a non-threatening, curious way. His head soon rotated back to where Adelita had gone though, and an ear flicked back to Zira.
"Nice to meet you. Got a band? I don't want any stallion trouble." It was bad enough not knowing if Shetan would show up and if, when. He didn't need a taken mare looking to spite her stallion running into his care.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Welcome to the danger zone,
Step into the fantasy.
You are not invited,
To the other side of sanity.
~xX Sweet Abandon Xx~
Bandy walked after her mother, stumbling every few strides until she really got this 'walking' thing down. Then she started to skip and bounce alongside her dam, smiling and looking mighty proud of herself.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Feels so good being bad,
There's no way I'm turning back.
Now pain is my pleasure
'Cause nothing could measure.
~xX Dark Light II Xx~
Dark popped up a brow as he stated he could take it. She'd heard of stallions going mad over a mare's heat scent, and was unsure of how true his words were. But this sneaky boy quickly turned her challenge on its head by commented that he could take what she could throw at him, so long as he was irritating her about it. His words did and didn't make sense, and this frustrated her. How was she to figure him out if he was being so slippery? But she knew that right now they were playing a game, one whose outcome they both knew if the game was played out to the end. The mare was willing to push it.
As he released her tail, she yanked it from the last bits of his grip.
"Sure about that, are you?" She asked, trotting back in front of the interestingly colored bay stallion. She held her tail a bit higher then normal and continued to move, seeing if he would follow her. If he wouldn't, she'd just turn and circle him then. Either way, she was gonna play this game.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is it boys,
This is war.
What are we waiting for?
Why don't we break the rules already?
~xX Ebony and Ivory II Xx~
Shetan narrowed his eyes further as the colt passed the test. But as Rift challenged him with his body language, he replied with pinned ears and bared teeth. In the same silent language, he was telling his son that he'd do what he liked and that he'd better learn to deal with it. He was frozen like that for a moment or two, then let his lips slip back over his teeth and his ears prick forward. His eyes then tracked to his filly and how she was moving off. Snorting, he tossed his head and began to jog after her. Remembering her name, he called out lowly to the filly.
"Flare."~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once upon a time somebody ran,
Somebody ran away saying,
'Fast as I can, I got to go, I got to go.'
Once upon a time we fell apart.
~xX Xanthos Xx~
Xanthos was a bit startled by that last sentence at the end of his comments and slapped down her tail. But her mind began to work again soon after and her tail loosened. Getting rid of it seemed like a good idea, but like her full sister, she was fairly innocent.
"How would I get rid of it?" She asked him, looking back as she held up her tail and waved it around, spreading her scent again. Her face was a mask of puzzlement, but he seemed to get what to do so she posed another question.
"No wait, you know how make it go away, so could you get rid of it, Galaxy?" She asked, eyes full of trust as she moved closer to him and stood parallel to his side.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'll walk with my head down,
Trying to block you out,
'Cause I will never impress you.
I just wanna feel ok again.
~xX Casting Shadows Xx~
Cast was glad he seemed to get a bit more confident after that and happily nuzzled him back.
"I dunno. Soon, I don't want to leave to much up to the future, it might not be so kind as the present is." She replied, getting very close to guessing at where he was going with this.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Don't judge a thing until you know what's inside it,
Don't push me, I'll fight it.
Never gonna give in,
Never gonna give it up, no.
~xX Herne's Shakil Xx~
Shakil watched his filly as she began to already test boundaries.
"See, what'd I say?" He said playfully to his mare before picking up a canter and following Cherokee. He'd make a small race of this, then get the little leopard back to her mother.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
How do I explain it,
When I don't know what to say?
What do I do now?
So much has changed.
~xX The Magic Touch Xx~
Midas slowly moved after Renesmee, looking over at his first grandfoal. A dapple grey, of course. Renesmee stood out, shining red chestnut, as she went to greet their grandfilly. His own flea bitten coat wasn't shining nearly as much, he was the scruffier of the pair. So he hung on the fringes of the small group as everyone murmured introductions to the filly. Turning his head to look at the foal with his good eye, he decided to throw in his name and intro as well.
"She is a nice one, Jade, Ra." He commented before lowering his head beside Renesmee's as his mare blew in the filly's face.
"And I am your grandsire, Midas." And because no one else had asked, he angled his head so his good eye was once again facing Jade and the baby.
"Have you got any names yet?"~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As you doze off alone,
I'll toss and turn.
As your sweet dreams dissolve,
I'll crash and burn.
~xX Bloody Sun Dance Xx~
Sun looked up from the watering hole as thundering hoofbeats rolled across the land. The flaxen chestnut rabicano appaloosa soon spotted a pair of horses galavanting towards her and the water. A blood bay stallion and a dark colored chestnut with a dark gold mane and tail. Her ears pricked, her head tilted and her ears flopping at an interesting angle. She had a sun colored mane and tail of her own and was curious. She hadn't met any chestnut flaxen besides her mother.
She continued to watch passively for a moment before she let out a whinny towards Caz and Isis. The arab appaloosa mustang cross then shot forwards, lean, strong legs moving her to the race.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The glow that the sun gives,
Right around sunset,
Helps me realize, this is just a journey.
Drop your worries, you're gonna turn out fine.
~xX The Sandman Xx~
The Sandman was wandering dangerously close to a large band with at least three or four stallion near it. (lol, Brumby's) However he was focused on the two yearlings of his age seemingly not being watched. (Anubis and Nefertiti) The colt let out a nicker, trying to solicit only their attentions, and preferably, the attentions of the filly.
