vegas huffed, lifting his muzzle and ambling forward, away from his mares slightly to graze. He expected the pair of them would work out who was going to be lead mare, and once they did, the pinto stud wanted to move. They were both in heat, and he didn't intend to do anything about that until they progressed later into their heat cycles, so if they remained in one place too long they would draw the attention of bachelors.
valentine trudged forward though the empty field. the stocky painted mare let out a low snort, digging one cream hoof into the damp earth below her. it was not often that Valentine found herself without a herd- and she did not particularly enjoy it, though all of the stallions she had encountered early into the season were young- foolish colts whom she would not trust to follow. the beautiful painted mare let a low nicker escape her pale lips, scented tail slapping against her velvet haunches, wanting to draw the attention of a stallion.
stolas ambled along, long, wavy tail chasing flies away from her soft hide while long, thin legs carried her gracefully of the damp earth. blue eyes searched the landscape, tearing apart the green scenery around her curiously, though she was still alone. she had been alone for quite some time now, and it was growing boring.
romance twisted her head around after the stallion covered her, nipping the colts' shoulder lightly and digging one gray hoof into the damp earth. she huffed, blowing a snort out of flared nostrils before contenting herself to rest her soft muzzle over his back, cold eyes half-lidded in contentment. she had accomplished finding a stallion and getting the attention she had gone so long without. for the moment, she was satisfied, though romance was immensely unreliable- especially with herds. if a stallion was not old enough, or not paying enough attention to the mare to control her, she would flee at the first sign of danger, when things stop going her way, or when she saw a stallion prance by that she liked the looks of more than the one she was with.
mary huffed as the stallion nudged her forward, drawing her ears together atop her head and dragging her gray hooves forward over the damp earth, sliding into an easy canter as a raspy call left the handsome stallion at her hip, obviously calling out for more mares. it would be in his best interest to find somewhat of an older mare- dream had never led a herd and honestly had no interest in doing so now.
the sisters stood together in a small clump, seemingly alone in the middle of a lush green field. sai worked her blunt teeth against takuro's pelt, grooming the rebellious mare as she did her best to contain her boredom. phantom could be seen nearby, scented tail nervously swatting against her hind legs as she watched their surroundings for stallions or predators alike. saokuro was visibly more calm, more relaxed than her sisters, but then she always was. all three of them were very aware that three mares stood together, without a stallion and with collective heat scents growing would attract at least one stallion, and while her sisters wanted to prevent this, it was what sai was trying to accomplish.
