i'ma do just what I want on the regular; reynard - Honybee - 02-25-2021
RE: i'ma do just what I want on the regular; reynard - Reynard - 03-03-2021 Rey dozed in the bower of a young half-fallen redwood. It had been caught by a fellow, and now leaned at an angle, roots exposed and branches barren. The tree was long dead, but the shelter it had created was a welcome hideout. Now the moon spotted youth rested there, eyes shut but ears twitching occasionally as sounds filtered from the forest. Chirring insects and the occasional bird call weren't uncommon, but it was the wind in the trees that filled his head most. That almost constant roaring had been his lullaby since birth, since before the sun went out. It was the sound of home. He sighed deeply, falling very nearly into true sleep. His eyes snapped open. A sound that didn't quite belong teased at the edge of his awareness. A vision of death-quick monsters flitted across his mind's eye before the thud of hoof beats registered. Not a rhythm he recognized from his family, though. Lifting a head with short but sharp horns crowning it, he blinked the sleep from his eyes, hoping for a glimpse of whoever it was. A blur of paleness, maybe, threaded through what he knew would be tree trunks if he could see them properly. He frowned, wondering if he should get one of the adults. No time, he decided, a moment before his own voice broke the quiet. "Who's there?" He hollered, doing his best to deepen his voice to something like maturity. He emerged from his twiggy shelter, hesitantly moving in the direction the blur had been moving in. @[Honybee] RE: i'ma do just what I want on the regular; reynard - Honybee - 03-03-2021
ooc: I know that was quick. XD I just happened to be already writing so I decided to put this up tonight! RE: i'ma do just what I want on the regular; reynard - Reynard - 03-23-2021 Rey found himself halting almost before he'd even begun to move. The stranger covered ground faster than he did, and moved with a confidence that seemed almost wrong in the dark. That she began talking almost immediately was the only reason he didn't take off, as no monster he'd ever met spoke with such fluting tones. It was a giveaway, in more ways than one. Discomfort etched his face as he glanced around. "You shouldn't be so loud," he scolded, maybe sharper than necessary. Memory of his twin's assault lingered though, and a sharp tongue was much better in his mind than sharp teeth. "You don't want to attract them, do you?" He asked, baffled. This darkness was nearly all he'd ever known. Memory of the time before was a vague thing, when he and his sister had been learning to walk and run and had been thoroughly caught up in the action of being foals. They hadn't drank in the sun just to feel it. Hadn't spent days memorizing what flowers looked like at different times of day, or traced out constellations at night. The world was dark, and had been for the majority of his existence. So meeting someone without the survivalist behaviors engrained was exceptional. Voice demonstratively hushed, the colt scowled at the ground. "I'm Reynard," he replied at last, ears swiveling for any off rustling. Not that the monsters generally tipped you off when they arrived. Your first warning was often the last. "Yeah, I live here. Sort of. My family's grove is a bit further. What are you doing here? Where's your family?" He couldn't imagine trying to get by without his tangled clan around him. Mothers, sisters, father, all looking out for one another. She could be like Cheri, though, determined to wander despite the risks. He loved his twin dearly but had to wonder sometimes if the brains had been divided unevenly between them. @[Honybee] sorry this is so late! @[The Monsters] please mess with his Intangibility please!
