With the need to clear her head, Ilma ventured out to the common lands in hopes of finding a distraction. The air would be clear enough for flight (remembering her meeting last summer with Vulgaris, who had the decency not to act on his advantage then but had still made her wary through almost their entire conversation); her white coat was illuminated by wings made of sunlight should the need to fly arise. Sometimes she missed her usual downy feathers, but the workaround was well and good. Besides, there wasn’t much to do about it except going to the mountain, and she was not prepared to actually bother the fairies with such a mundane issue of not being able to fly at night. It was on this day in the snow-covered forest that she noticed an almost equally pale figure, alone, chasing a white hare out of it’s hiding place. She reminded her of her younger self, and of her friend Nymf although the filly had no copper points of course. She was young; perhaps a magic way of Beqannaor a new arrival, with bad timing. But she was not in the adoption den, which had Ilma wonder what she was doing here all alone. ”Hello there, darling girl. What are you chasing our furry friends for? I doubt that it was taunting you,” she asks, but she does so with a joking smile and a light in her eyes. Ah, children. Best distraction she could have hoped for, for sure. She does not lose her smile when she continues in her warm tones. ”But where are my manners? My name is Ilma, and I live close by in the mountains. Who are you?” And do you have a mother close by who clearly isn’t paying attention right now? Or perhaps you’re better at running away than my own children... Ilma supposes that she had the luck of not having a cremello baby of herself (yet, she muses) who’d be great at hiding in the ever-snowy parts of the mountain landscape; instead having had two black fillies and one dark grey colt. At least, she considers Ember as much her own as the others. So if this filly has no mother, or a homeless mother, she figured she should take them home to the sanctuary for the duration of the winter at least. Unless they’re greatly opposed to that idea. @[Leokadia] Idk if you want Jayhawk to join, for now it’s not needed yet, per say RE: she kicked the hive now the bees are swarming; any - Leokadia - 09-12-2018

When she'd stopped her churning the snow Lo had picked at the sour berries that clung to the bramble, they lacked toxicity but their bitterness made her spit them out again. A mare with bright wings approached through the trees but went unnoticed by the girl until she spoke. Then her attention snapped toward the stranger though she held her ground and gave no indication of shyness. Her gaze left the mare's face and lingered on her bright wings which were quite striking here in the shadowy trees. The white mares angelic glow impressed the filly but the words made her recall her previous activities. she's an arsonist in her pastime @[Ilma] I wanted Lo to muck around unsupervised a bit, but @[Jayhawk] can join in if and when she likes. :] RE: she kicked the hive now the bees are swarming; any - Ilma - 09-14-2018 Ilma And there's a lesson waiting to be learned the firestarters always get the burns and the good guys never get the girl
The girl's not shy, but, neither is Ilma although the white mare is much more reserved by nature. She stops in her tracks near the young filly in the bush, and shakes her head with a chuckle. "I can't force it to come back to you. Hares like to run, especially when someone ten times their size comes for them." She wonders if the filly could consider something huge chasing her, but as it is with the youngest children, she is already distracted when Ilma tells her name. "Please to meet you, Lo. And I suppose it's as good as place as any..." she trails and looks around. "Although perhaps a herd would suit someone young like you. Where there's other children." and shooting stars cannot fix the world @[Leokadia] RE: she kicked the hive now the bees are swarming; any - Leokadia - 09-17-2018

A herd meant a group of others, and in a group of others she would not be so likely to be alone like she has so often been. She considers this, her expression gone rather serious. She had no experience with other children, or many other adults for that matter, of course if someone left her in a herd there would be others there still. She wouldn't be alone. She was playing alone until Ilma had approached and she had been content, absorbed in her activities, but it a little while she would have looked up and realized that no one was waiting for her. Jayhawk perhaps, somewhere in the wood, but that was just one new person in her life who could easily go away like the first mother had. A herd seemed like a contingency, a bunch of back up mothers, in a way. "I want a herd. Can we go to one? Do you have one?" She paused, remembering that she had acquired Jayhawk and the 'soon' babies. "I have a new mother we could bring too, but I don't know if she wants to come. Can I just come?" In Lo's world thus far people came and went as the pleased. She inhaled, little chest filling after the long rush of speech left her a little out of breath. she's an arsonist in her pastime @[Ilma] RE: she kicked the hive now the bees are swarming; any - Ilma - 09-21-2018 Ilma And there's a lesson waiting to be learned the firestarters always get the burns and the good guys never get the girl
The white mare chuckles at the cremello baby girl. "I have a kingdom, which in itself, is one big herd. Our queens had triplets last spring, so there should be enough playmates. I'm sure you'll be allowed to play. But," she continues when the girl asks if it's okay if it's just her, "you should ask your mother to come. And if she doesn't want to come, you can just visit later." she agrees, half-way. Looking around, she had not spotted a mare yet to claim this foal, but the girl's attention span was luckily, short enough that Ilma had time enough to entertain her. and shooting stars cannot fix the world @[Leokadia] @[Jayhawk] uhhm so this child of yours is just going with strangers? xD RE: she kicked the hive now the bees are swarming; any - Leokadia - 09-27-2018

It didn’t bother Lo that Jayhawk had not appeared to claim her, but now that Ilma had offered the opportunity that hinged on Jayhawks’ agreement the filly was eager to see her appear. She studied the surrounded trees, trying to pick out the direction from which she’d come but she’d wandered away a little carelessly and wasn’t entirely sure where the spotted mare who had adopted her might be. She gave a shrill little whinny, calling out for Jayhawk. She accepted without thinking that her new mother might not come at all. People left. she's an arsonist in her pastime @[Ilma] @[Jayhawk] Please jump in if you want. RE: she kicked the hive now the bees are swarming; any - Jayhawk - 09-27-2018 The palomino appaloosa mare was just about to go looking for Leokadia. She knew how adventurous and outgoing foals were. She walked down a pathway that took her back to her sleeping area until she heard the small whinny of another. She hoped the call was from her adopted daughter. The palomino mare was busy with the birth of the twins that she didn't notice just how far the young cremello filly had gone. She looked behind her at the cremello appaloosa and chestnut appaloosa foals who followed behind her. When the trio had finally spotted Lo she was with another mare. She smiled as she stopped a few feet away from the pair. Jayhawk said "Hello Lo, ma'am. My name is Jayhawk but please call me Jay. These are my twins Jenelly and Gato. What is your name miss?" @[Leokadia] @[Ilma] Hope you don't mind I had her new baby twins follow her RE: she kicked the hive now the bees are swarming; any - Ilma - 09-28-2018 Ilma And there's a lesson waiting to be learned the firestarters always get the burns and the good guys never get the girl
Ilma's question seems to upset the filly for the slightest of moments; then, she calls out and forgets the whole ordeal of being away from her mother. With a hint of a smile, the white mare sees how Lo shrugs it off and tells her she hasn't learned to use her wings at all. "Then I'll teach you, if you want." she offers, but then another mare greets them already. and shooting stars cannot fix the world @[Leokadia] @[Jayhawk] RE: she kicked the hive now the bees are swarming; any - Leokadia - 09-28-2018

Jayhawk comes. She really comes. Leokadia had called out and her new mother had arrived very quickly. She stared in surprise at the appaloosa mare who appeared, and then trotted forward, only to forget Jayhawk and eagerly touch muzzles with the babies instead. She was only a little bigger than they were, but it was nice to be bigger than somebody. Remembering their mother she bumps her nose against Jayhawk’s shoulder as Ilma addresses her, managing not to interrupt but eager to speak when there was a lull in the adult’s speech. ”Can I go? We can all go! Ilma is my friend and she can teach me to glide so that you can stay with the babies.” she's an arsonist in her pastime @[Ilma] @[Jayhawk] |
