(BAYOU KELPIES) Spirits of the fog -Species rp-

[KaiKenNatsuki]

| Apollo |


The scent. Yes, probably the best scent he has ever breathed. Who knew that in the middle of a swamp you'd find good fruits, right? Well, not really. Apollo didn't think, he simply broke the fruit in two pieces by giving it a nice bite. The fruit was humid, juicy, delicious. He smiled, as he realized all he was thinking of was the flavor of that fruit. Swallowing it in a row, he looked around in search of herd members, careful so they wouldn't notice him in their territory. After all, he was somehow "stealing" their feeding, if that's how you should face it. Anyhow, he was actually looking forward making friends, since those last months have been very lonely to him. After realizing he was still in their territory, he calmly made his way out of their lands. Still chewing what was left of the fruit in his mouth, his eyes had gotten distracted as the view passed by, and he didn't notice he had accidentally stumbled over another Kelpie.

Dexter
Mood:Happy, comfortable
With: Vanity
Location: Dunno- just in the Bayou a' strollin'
Crush: No one.

Dexter chuckled,

"Nothing much under here,m'dear."
He said smiling

"Born here, grew up here,
made friends here- and here i am."

He looked down at her and whispered in her ear
sarcastically
"I know, i'm not very interesting at all."
He pulled back a bit and laughed,
his silvery metallic eyes meeting her Mahogany orbs

Vanity gave a warm smile,

"Really? You seem to be quite the muscle" she laughed, and poked his front leg with her nose?

"Then let's make things interesting" she whispered back in a flirty tone.

Her mahogany eyes met his handsome, silver eyes. She felt herself melt into them.

Dexter
Mood:Awkward, embarressed
With: Vanity
Location: Dunno- just in the Bayou a' strollin'
Crush: No one.

Dexter stopped, This was awkward.
Never would Dexter ever dream of leading her on,

He needed to tell her he wasn't interested.
"Um, Vanity...I don't think that's a good idea."

He said shakily, he really didn't want to do this.
"I'm really sorry, Vanity, but i really..
I really just wanna be friends."

She frowned and looked away.
"No, no, Vanity please don't take this personally."
He nuzzled her softly and lifted her head to his.

"I really like you, but..But just not that way."
He sighed and pulled back, expected the worst...

{ Mirela }

Mirela tossed a surprised glance at the stallion, now HE certainly was a feisty one. Mirela had to admit, she liked the idea of a challenging stallion, particularly a loner like this one. Arching a single delicate brow she tossed him an amused smile, "Mmm well, I suppose we shall see hmm? And as for me..." She paused, her lips curving up into a confident smile, "I'm afraid I only tell those I 'deem trustworthy' information about my business." She broke out in pretty peals of laughter, flicking him almost playfully with her tail. "I'm sorry, I couldn't resist throwing that back at you." he studied him carefully for a moment, "I suppose I'm still foolish enough to trust others, maybe that will be my downfall one day." The last was said quietly, more to herself than to him. "I'm here by accident actually. I've been traveling a long time, just happened to end up here, on this herd territory." She said quietly, her eyes thoughtful as she pondered where she would go after her time here was up.

A r o k e n

Aro surprised even himself when he let out a snort of laughter when she threw his comment back in his face. He couldn't remember the last time he laughed, but something about this feisty little mare just struck him. He sobered up when she changed her demeanor and he felt a pang of empathy. There was something that she was keeping locked up, much like himself. "Well i certainly know about travelling, it seems that has been all there is to my life recently, but never did i think i would end up here", this last he said almost wistfully. He snapped back to attention. "Honestly this is territory i shouldn't be in, i should move on..." he let the sentence trail off. He needed to speed through this territory and hopefully not run into anyone else, but he really dodn't want to leave the company of this mare. Thats odd, he thought, then felt something close to anger. How dare she interrupt his path and act as if he were just some kelpie she could talk to! Just ask quickly as it came, the anger passed. Aro turned his head to hide his expression, pretending to be contemplating the dancing shadows formed by the light shining through the trees. Rage, anger, useless emotions that seemed to plague him at the most inopourtune moments. He hoped she hadn't noticed his sudden lapse in emotion.

[Lavapony]

Vanity looked at him a bit confused "I didn't mean it like that... I-i mean, well it slipped out i meant to say how about a race then.." She said with a nervous stutter, maybe better wording would of been great. She scolded herself in her mind, for one, finding out he didn't really like her, two for making a fool of herself. The flirty tone didn't help much either.

I should of said well then, ill race ya back to the herd, it was what i was thinking.

She sighed and her eyes met the ground, or at her hooves at least, she felt like a fool and Dexter would probably himself, would most likely be embarrassed. This just might be the last stroll i get with him..

{ Mirela }

Mirela hadn't expected the solemn stranger to burst into spontaneous laughter, even at her display of humour, yet it was strangely pleasing to be able to make another laugh, and she couldn't help the soft grin that slid onto her muzzle. It didn't take long before the stallion himself began to speak back to her, his voice quiet and wistful as he spoke. Mirela wondered at that, did he have some sort of history here? She didn't say anything though, just kept watching him quietly. When he spoke about this being a territory he shouldn't be in her interest was piqued even further. What an intriguing stallion! She thought to herself, finding it hard to believe that there were others like herself, wanderers who didn't really belong anywhere.

She was still watching him when it seemed as though a shadow swept across his expression, an angry sort of shadow that momentarily had control of him. Yet Mirela wasn't one to be startled easily, so when he quickly regained control of himself and looked away she shrugged it off. Goodness knew that she had trouble keeping her own emotions in check at times, so why pester him about it? Instead Mirela decided to distract from it all and speak again. "Yes well, its easier for you I'm quite sure. Lone mares such as myself have much greater difficulty moving about, particularly when we run into herds." She tossed her head in disgust and pinned her ears back, "Not long ago I ran into a particularly boorish herd leader. He did everything in his power to try and force me into his herd." Mirela paused and smirked, "Which was, of course, a very great mistake on his part." She was picturing the disbelieving expression on the stallions face as she turned on him. Truthfully it had been a narrow escape for her, but she had gotten away, and that was all that mattered. "Of course, you can't always get lucky." She murmured softly, worry lacing her tone. Mirela knew that one of these days she wouldn't get to escape, and when that day came....she knew that she'd wish she was dead rather than alive.

Shaking her head to dispel her gloomy thoughts Mirela studied him almost jealously, "You're lucky. Being a stallion and all, far easier to live a lonely life." She sighed at how pathetic that sounded, but Mirela wasn't ready to risk her heart, not again, she couldn't bear having it trampled again. Fixing her gaze again on his stunning orange eyes she tilted her head to the side slightly. "You know, you still haven't told me your name yet. And its getting rather tedious, calling you 'the stallion' in my head." She murmured playfully, tossing him an amused look.

Username: Ashwyn
Kelpies name: Fenris
Kelpies gender: Stallion
Kelpies age: 8 years
Kelpies height: 18hh
Kelpies Personality:
Fenris is a rather dark and somber character. He's been through much pain in his life, and carries the burden of those times with him. As a result he's very closed off, preferring not to spend too much time with anyone, afraid of getting attached and then losing them. That being said he is very honourable, and if he sees a mare in distress you can be certain that he will stop everything and race to her aid.

Herd rank: Loner

A r o k e n

Aro felt the anger flush through him again at her account of her time in another herd. Some kelpies just felt they could take who wanted, turn them into what they weren't, pull them from their homes and make them, but no, that was passed, he was here now. Aro caught up with what she was saying and said without thinking, "im sure it was more than luck that got you out of that, you seem tough" and wished he could unsay every word. When she started talking about stallions being lucky he felt an old hurt in her voice. He gave her a sad smile, "lucky isn't the word i would use so much, and my name is Aroken". For some reason Aro couldn't stop the deep melancholy that came to him. Yes, this was all the world was, herds prancing around having fun with no care for the loners they leave in their wake,He shouldn't be in this territory, dragging up old hurts like this. And just when he had learned to bury them completely.

He glanced at Mirela, the slight smile on her face, her eager blue gaze, the breeze blowing slightly through her mane. He couldn't do this, he couldn't drag another into his bad fortune. If she was found her with him, who knows what this herd would do. They would think her a spy or a liar. Why should I care, i only just met her. But he did care. "Look I just, i mean that is, i shouldn't be here, and you shouldn't be here with me and..." suddenly he could think of no more words, and he didn't want to face her after that spectacular show of idiocy. He turned and trotted away into the bayou.

;; Shallo ;;

Shallo was grazing in a little field, near by a large swamp. He could hear rustling in the near by bushes but was so into his food that he ignored it. Shrugging of his nagging suspicions, he continued to eat. His soft fail flickering, and swatting at the swamp flies. He shoke is head, making his mane flow in the wind. When suddenly, a large Kelpie trampled over him. "What the hell!?" Shallo pushed the Kelpie off of himself, and nickered very loudly. "Who are you?" He snorted, pawing his hoof at the ground. Kicking up the soft swamp dirt.

{He's talking to Apollo ^^}

[Temperance.]

{ Mirela }

Mirela waited patiently for him to respond, though his knee-jerk reaction to her comment about being lucky made her smile and dip her head. "Why thank-you, if I wasn't tough I doubt I'd get very far. Still, I suppose it was more the fact that he was something of an idiot. Otherwise I don't doubt he could have done far worse to me." She shuddered at the thought but shook her head, "But that's all in the past and doesn't concern me anymore." She was saying that as much for herself as it was for him, Mirela didn't wish to dwell on all the past pains and mistakes she had gone through, those were all in the past now. And would remain there.

The sad smile he directed towards her made her feel a deep sympathy for him, here was a kindred spirit who could understand the pain and hurt she had been through. It was a glorious feeling to realize you are not alone in this world. The gift of his name that he bestowed upon her was wonderful as well, and foal-like as it was she felt her eyes light up with happiness. "Well then, its an honor to meet you Aroken." She said dipping her head, and thinking on his previous sentence she slowly inclined her head, "And you're right, perhaps 'lucky' is not the right term, but still, it is easier to be a male and travel alone." She shot him a rueful glance, "Somehow I doubt that you are plagued by brutish mares who wish to force you into their herd." She sighed again and closed her eyes briefly as the wind whispered softly through the trees. It felt good somehow, standing her and speaking with a kindred soul like this...or at least, she felt as though he was a kindred soul, almost like she had known him all her life. But no, Mirela shook the odd thought away, it was hardly appropriate after only just meeting him.

When Aroken next spoke though his words completely shocked Mirela, what on earth was he talking about? Why would he think-? But at that moment he turned and trotted away. Disbelief and anger shot through Mirela, how dare he! That was no way to end a conversation, and whatever his problem was he should be facing it rather than running away! Flicking her tail almost furiously she managed to shout one last thing at him, "You just wait Aroken, you'll be seeing more of me I promise. No one gets to run off on me before I'm finished talking to them." A little harsh maybe, but he had no call to go gallivanting off like that, or at least, not without her!

{Yeah <3 Can't wait to get him into the action :3}
