Note that they are unbreedable!


Yay, an appy! To try for this girl, I want you to tell me a story of her interacting with another equid. It can be in a negative or positive way. If you want to use someone else's equid for this, make sure you get their permission first.

Story: info:word count of 379(sorry it's short!uvu); other equid is Alexa,owned by me. :>

I wake, fear rushing through me. My ears perked up, I cautiously survey the small cave. No one. I close my eyes again, hoping against hope it is simply another piece of white, falling from the sky. Then, I hear it again. Hooves. They clatter carelessly along the brilliant white earth, fearless. I take a few steps on tired, weak legs, peering out at the equid. She is easy to spot, a russet flame against the cold. The mare faces away from me, her blue-green eyes searching, watching intently. I take another step forward, closer now to her. My steps are too clumsy, thudding against the hard-packed dirt. The other equid whips around. I wonder briefly if she has caught me spying, though she doesn’t look to upset with me, surprisingly.
“Come out, come out!” The equid calls playfully, and I tense. Outside, in a storm like this, is nothing like before-nothing like curling up in a warm, safe cave I know. Yet I am not a coward, so I step out, shivering in the harsh wind. My hooves sink down into the whiteness, and I momentarily panic, feeling like I am in quicksand. Then I take another leap forward and realize I am not drowning in this odd substance. I gallop along the frozen earth, suddenly feeling more freedom.
“What is this?” I call, my voice rising with excitement. “Snow.” The mare laughs, and for once I don’t mind. This, this snow is new, is lovely. It pours from the sky and drifts lightly all around us, as if dancing. For a split second, I am lost in wonder, prancing through this crisp, clean snow, delighted. I think about all the other times I was hidden away, trembling, not daring to even touch this snow. I do not know why I never saw the snow this way, never saw its friendly side. I look to the kind mare for help, hunching down against the furious snowstorm, searching for her deep copper pelt, teasing sea-blue eyes, and she is gone. Simply vanished but for a tiny red speck on the horizon, galloping fierce and free. I swing my head around, back to my cave, and somehow, even though I am alone, I do not feel that way. Not really.

Name: Soledad (Sol); Spanish name meaning "Solitude"
Gender: Mare
Height: 13.2 hh
Age: 8 years
Story:
The sky was beginning to darken with sunset, and Soledad was preparing to sleep for the night. She had selected a secluded snow-covered meadow hidden partway up the mountain, recognizing it as a secure place where she would be safe for the time being. She remained standing, knowing that if a threat approached she would have to escape fast.

Her ears had begun to droop and she was nearly asleep when she heard the crashing sound nearby. Instantly, her head was up and she was alert. Alarm caused her muscles to tense, ready to carry her out of the small meadow. The noise was coming from the same side she'd entered, branches were snapping and the undergrowth was swaying and scraping against the trees as whatever was coming stormed through.

Soledad lost control of her fear and raced out of the meadow away from whatever monster was coming for her. Teeth snapped at her heels as she ran, she could smell the blood on their breath. Branches scraped against her coat and some hit her face and sensitive nose as she ran. Behind her, one of the creatures howled, and - the memory stopped the instant she heard the whinny. She shook her head, the fear of her memories still lingering even though she knew now that it had only been another equid. She began to slow her pace, focusing on the details of the undergrowth around her. It was a coping method she'd learned. If she focused hard enough on simple, basic things, she could clear her mind.

She was so focused on the knots in the trees that she didn't see the mare until it was too late. Soledad crashed into the other equid's side, jolting her back to her surroundings. She stepped back, embarrassed and startled. The other equid, a rose grey mare that seemed a bit younger than Soledad, looked at her, clearly surprised.

"Very sorry about that," Soledad said, staring at the ground. "I'll just be on my way," she added quietly, moving to step around the other equid. It had been several years since she'd really conversed with another of her species, just the odd greeting to the odd one she passed.

As Soledad was walking away the other equid called out, "Hey, stop, I think I know you!"

Soledad froze, confused as to how she could possibly know this mare. A moment passed, and an old memory started to surface. She remembered a young filly, face dark with quip against her reddish coat as she reared and raced around the valley. The filly never went too far from her mother, though, too timid to really venture off. Then darkness descended on the memory, grey pelts, soulless eyes, and the snapping jaws...

Soledad shut the memory down instantly and turned back to the mare, hoping it would distract her. "What's your name?" Soledad asked rather bluntly, looking the mare over intently.

"Hava. And I definitely know who you are. You're Soledad. Except, we thought you were dead... after the wolves...," the mare, Hava, trailed off hesitantly, eyes wide.

A sort of realization hit Soledad in that moment. "I wasn't the only one that survived...," she said quietly. How many others had survived, then? She couldn't believe it.

"The herd is just back a ways, it's grown a lot. You should come back," Hava said, the kindness in her voice clear.

"I'll think about it," Soledad replied. She couldn't imagine returning to a herd after four years on her own thinking her friends and family were dead. But as Hava turned away, clearly disappointed, Soledad felt a wave of loneliness. She ran after the mare, the thought of remaining alone too overwhelming. Despite her nerves, she said, "I'll come."

Gender: Mare
Height: 13.2 hh
Age: 5 years of age
Story: Galadriel is the mare she will interact with, who is owned by me.
This summer was hotter than most, the sun beating down harshly upon the mountain, causing most of the lakes and streams to dry up. Elweth struggled to find water and even when she did there seemed to be predators sticking close to it. She walked onward, the dehydration settling in until she stumbled upon nothing, her vision blurry as she slumped forward and lay down, giving up on what had to be her final resting place. Her eyes closed and she was sure that was it, that she wasn't going to see anything else in this wonderful world she lived in. Until she felt a soft nudge against her shoulder, the movement drawing her from her last thoughts. A red dun mare stood before her and she found herself taken aback. What could this mare possibly want with her as she was clearly on her final leg.

“You look like you could use yourself a drink,” the mare said quietly. Elweth gave a meek nod and shakily rose to her feet.

Galadriel walked alongside the mare, allowing Elweth to rest her weight against her as the darker mare led her to a creek she had seemingly overlooked in her struggle to find an obvious source of water. A weak nicker of excitement sounded from the appie's mouth and she stumbled excitedly into the water, guzzling it down as of it were never going to come back again.

She heard a chuckle behind her as she finished, her ears perked as she looked back at the other mare in front of her eyes her, Elweth suddenly feeling shy in front of her. With her head lowered and her eyes on Galadriel, she silently watched as the mare strode away, feeling left behind and alone again, much like she had always been before this.

“You coming?” Galadriel asked, looking over her shoulder at the Appaloosa questioningly. With that Elweth quickly loped after the mare, remaining at her side and staying there as long as the older are allowed.

Story: Delphi is owned by Charchar2 //

Mountain Swiss had eagerly ran down the track, scenting another Equid's presence. Slowly, a WME, slightly smaller then her, appeared. She seemed quite innocent and scared. Looking around, Mountain Swiss noticed that the soft snow blanketed the forest . Once again fixing her concentration on the equid, ''You mam' are you alive or are you dead?'' She said questioning the cold small figure. Slowly, the figure inched closer to Mountain Swiss. In a playful tone she had answered '' Pha.. dead?.. You could call my Delphi if you please'' Delphi looked at her hooves as she slowly fixed her concentration on Mountain Swiss. Shaking off the snow that she had previously been playing in, she encircled Mountain Swiss. ''Why are you doing that?'' Mountain Swiss said snapping at Delphi. Once again, in a playful tone she had responded ''You'd make a good playmate--''. ''Pha? Playmate? I have better things to do then to listen to your foolish remarks!'' She stomped off, leaving Delphi behind. After realizing how hurtful that was, she darted back to Delphi. Only to find that the bouncing, energetic soul had no longer stayed there. Her head swayed side to side as her body quivered. Her mind froze and her teeth chattered knowing how upsetting that may have been towards Delphi. As she gulped, the last think she could think of was to yell, as so she went with what her mind had once told her. ''Delphi!'' she shouted as she slowly lifted her hooves off the ground. As her body shifted the other direction, she felt butterflies spit out of her stomach as something tickled her throat. After that tickle had gone, it was replaced with a sting. Mountain Swiss blinked a few times as the stinging was now jointed with the tickling. She heard her voice echo throughout the forest yet, the one whom was named Delphi did not appear. Nor did Mountain Swiss hear even a slight noise in the forest . As her voice faded, it was replaced with a deep silence. Sighing with disbelief she raced off, trying to find Delphi who lingered deeper in the forest. Staring at the trees intensely, Mountain Swiss did not like the sight of the forest that was covered in so much wildlife and insects. As her body stiffened, she stared at a figure that caught her attention immediately. She had a brown coat, and specks of snow covered her beautiful coat. As Mountain Swiss approached her, she was not sure where to turn. If it was Delphi, then she seemed to not be herself. Mountain Swiss slowly trotted up to the figure and when she was about to place a hoof on it- ''Off! Off!'' The figure said shouting and giggling. She inched away. Mountain Swiss was able to catch a glimpse of it's face, ''Delphi!'' She squealed excitingly. ''I-I i'm so sorry. I never meant to hurt your feelings-'' Mountain Swiss was interrupted with a rumble of laughter. ''You? hurt me? Pah!'' Delphi said trying her best to hold her giggles inside. In all of the confusion, Mountain Swiss questioned, ''Are you sure..? Just a second ago i swear and cross my hooves, that you were crying? '' Delphi rolled her eyes, '' I was not crying - I was laughing. There is a difference between them, you know?'' Mountain Swiss had giggled for the very first time, ''Ha ha, i suppose there is!''

"Excuse me!"
The golden brown, almost copper-toned female stamped a hoof is disapproval as the other mare got a little too close, ears pinned to her skull in warning.
