she paints her eyes as black as night now
Grinning as Magnus agrees to her idea of a date, Cinzia follows his gesture and begins the journey towards the Jungle. The line of conversation flows easily between them, gentle and unrememberable in the best of ways. Her wings twitch from time to time as the heat increases, but they do not spread; a little discomfort is a small sacrifice for the enjoyable company.
Almost too soon, the couple halts at the border of the massive kingdom. Her breathing is silent next to Magnus’s healthy inhale. Macaws cawing, howlers howling, Cinzia ought to cringe away from the chaos; instead, concentrating on the stallion next to her, she relaxes, truly opens her eyes, takes in the beauty, the sepia trees and lush underbrush. She ignores the sweat gathering on her navy-sheened hide, too ensnared by how large the land is, and how very small she has become.
Just as she remembers to breathe again, a pretty palomino mare breaches the emerald growth. Smokey blue eyes slipping on to the smiling woman, Cinzia studies her for a moment before allowing a reserved smile. While she’s aware that she had instigated this whole journey, the fact that another has intruded upon the occasion sours her mood slightly. This is a kingdom though, she rationalizes with herself, clearing the clouds brewing above her head. I can’t really be surprised.
”I’m Cobalt, a pleasure to meet you Rhy.” Her tone is low, the undercurrent of wind on a seemingly motionless day. ”This is Magnus.” Her angular head gestures minutely towards her golden companion. Unconsciously stepping closer to him, the mare tilts her head gently towards the kingdom’s interior with another restricted smile. ”He offered to show me around a little; I’m a bit of a hermit.” Her gentle laugh plays into the cacophony of the Jungle, eyes taking on a happy twinkle. “He’s taking me out of my shell.”
