Esperanza
I decide to keep him guessing.
" That is not important." I say. I smile to him. Inside i was staring him down trying to find out more about him. I wave my tail and stare him in the eye. I didnt care how scary he is.
" Where do you come from?" I ask.

Kae’ouit
Kae’ouit recognized the mare’s expression of self-conscious discomfort, and it drew a crease in his brows as he wondered why, instinctively trying to let her feel more at ease by relaxing his proud position, taking the flag from his tail and the arch from his neck, yet he couldn’t erase years of having to posture for his herd’s safety, and a natural sort of pride or dignity was maintained in his bearing, though he tried to make it less imposing. He knew that what he was trying to do probably wouldn’t be much help, but it might affect her slightly so he would try it.

Respectfully he dipped his head to her as he learned their names; the mare, a richly hued mink shade, was Tisane. And Laxius, a name he hadn’t heard before, was the stallion, his fur a shimmering coat of flame that was stunning to behold. Kae’ouit managed to not let it show in his face, but he was surprised that Tisane was the one who introduced herself and Laxius; usually the stallions took that role as protectors of the mares. Though stallions were never rulers, they tended to have the most pride and overly dignified self-esteems that annoyed Kae’ouit so. Many stallions, when they looked at him, saw a stuck-up fool who thought himself leader of the world, prancing around thinking he was doing a world of good for his herd by giving himself a title higher than should be, a title that never existed. And maybe that’s what he was. But Kae’ouit was only doing the best for his herd. A fat lot that did them, he thought, regret and shame flickering in his smoky emerald gaze.

At Laxius’ question, Kae’ouit’s ears tipped forwards slightly, and he cocked his head, surprised a little at the stallion’s boldness. What a strange, somewhat personal, even, question to ask right after exchanging names. Bold, indeed. Why would he ask that sort of thing? Small talk, Kae’ouit, he reminded himself. But that sort of thing hadn’t been exchanged much back in his old herd. Though, he mused slightly, gaze clouding in just a hint of darkness, Laxius and Tisane probably thought he and Anna were a couple. It was perfectly normal to ask, in that respect- but to Kae’ouit... Though the ocean was beautiful, the tang of the salt in the relentless breeze, the vast feeling of loneliness that came with the immense space stretching around them and the faded colours created a somewhat nostalgic air, not to mention the rain clouds brewing on the horizon.

Raising a single brow, a hint of a dare sparking in his dark gaze, his eyes flicked to Anna, revelling in the bright shade of cerise her eyes were, something he’d never seen before. Intriguing. Meeting and holding her gaze, he tilted his head slightly and flicked an ear, daring her to respond.

Yet when she did, his lips pursed slightly. This was news. She’d been lost? He glanced pointedly at her with a frown. Why hadn’t she said anything? Kae’ouit knew the area well enough, he’d been staying there for several weeks already. He’d talk to her later about it, and definitely help her get to where she’d been needing to go. Worry softened his gaze, and he turned back to Tisane and Laxius with a slight smile that was too troubled to reach his eyes.

A herd?
Him? Pfft!
He would never have his own herd. Unless, of course, he took it over like he was planning. His tail swished back and forth, a clear sign of discomfort. His eyes narrowed.
"Why does it matter, Esperanza? You are avoiding my question, so why should I answer you?" he hissed angrily, ears pinning back. He took a threatening step forwards.
"I suggest you answer me now, little beast. Or I will be... Very scary."
He would not wait for a simple little mare to answer his question. When he demanded information, he expected it to be given to him. Now.

Esperanza
He moved forward and grew angry. I swish my tail and rmeain calm. I smile.
" I told you it didnt matter." I say. I smile when I said it.

Pertka bristled at the other stallions attitude. True he wasn't the most charming on the block but still. He shook his head as Aphrodite splashed him. No need to worry about it. He seriously needed to relax a bit if he was ever going t make this herd thing work. He watched as Aphrodite shook out her mane, did relax a bit and flicked his tail in her direction. "Sorry, I kinda tensed up again there didn't I. I'm getting there," he muttered.


Rae looked around, her purple eyes gazing over their surroundings. "Well did we still want to find a herd? If so maybe we should head towards a water source. Bound to be a herd that will pass by there eventually," Rae beamed happily at Freddy. It wasn't often that she came up with an actual decent idea but she was thrilled about this one. She supposed it was just the drive to find a good herd and be with others.

"Yes, yes you did. But seriously whoever he is he's going off with Kaiya. I trust her enough so he must be an okay guy." She says and walks over to stand by Perkta. "Now loosen up he isn't coming here until Kaiya comes back which might be a while. You shouldn't tense up over little things, Perkta so just relax, unwind." She says smoothly and goes back over to the shade and lies down. He was right that he was getting better but she believes he should really focus on the facts than tense up when there is another stallion near by.

Aphrodite decided to take her mind off of everything and to think about other stuff. She looks up at the tree, still puzzled on how it got to be so odd for an oak. She stands up flicking her tail as she shakes the dirt off her coat. Her deep blue eyes gleam with fascination of the odd and mysterious tree. She looks back the tree over to the stream. She began to wonder why Kaiya would drag us here of all places. She flattens her ears, puzzled. She shakes it off and looks out to where Kaiya had walked off with the stallion. Aphrodite began to wonder if that stallion was this Slain character Kaiya had talked about. To Aphrodite it was obvious she had a crush on that Slain character.

[Ardelis]

Pertka walked away from the water and over to a dusty patch towards the tree line. He knew she was right. No sense in getting huffy if there was no potential for danger. That was his problem though, everything had been a potential threat for so long. He decided to assume the stallion must be Slain and put it out of his mind. Easing himself down he rolled a bit in the patch, the sensation of the dirt feeling good on his back and sides. He stood and shook the dirt from his earthy colored pelt. Looking back over at Aphrodite she seemed to be intrigued by the tree, or something. He walked over to her and timidly asked, "Something on your mind?

Mood▬Confused. Bored.

Her ears perk up at the sound of Perkta's voice. She ponders his question. "Well, nothing really just puzzled as to why this oak has such twisted branches." She says she could tell he was being skittish towards her. She was quite used to it. It didn't bother her much as she had gotten used to Perkta's timid personality.

She looks at Perkta no real emotion on her face. Her deep blue gaze glances up at the branches one last time and then back at Perkta. "Is there something on your mind, Perkta?" She asks him with nothing else to say. She looks down at her hooves then back up at him. Still no real emotion on her face.

[Ardelis]

Pertka looked up to the branches. She had a point, he'd never quite seen anything like it. He wondered what must have happened to the tree to make the branches twist like that. He looked back down to Aphrodite and his funny crooked smile worked it's way across his face. "Not really. Just kind of wondering what's going on with Kaiya and why she took off in such a rush." he grumbled.

She nods in agreement. "I personally think that was that Slain guy she was talking about. And..... I think she has a crush on this Slain guy as well." She says simply. She smirks and looks at Perkta. She shakes her mane as it still had some dirt in it.

Epic writers block. I feel so very Pathetic XD
