    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    If a man can bridge the gap between life and death, if he can live on after he's dead, then maybe he was a great man.
    He is giggling at the sight of her as she plops onto her hind end, a sound of pure amusement slipping into his light voice. He most certainly hadn't expected her squeal and tumble reaction and it quickly had gotten the best of him. "Yes... a flower," he manages to get out inbetween giggles of amusement. It took only a second but as she laughs, his giggles turn into just that, laughter of his own.

    It mixes with hers delicately only calming once her own laughter does and he watches her quickly come back to her feet. "It's nice to meet you too, flower." A smile tilts at the corners of his dark gray lips as his small tail swishes from side to side and he catches sight of her quite large smile. He likes the way she is so happy he realizes. It helps him to stay distracted from the loneliness being on your own could bring.

    The way the young girl explains her mother, has him at complete attention. He stands there still as a statue, eyes stuck on her own lavender colored ones and his ears pricked forward nice and straight. "Like the stars?" His words are breathy in wonder. "That's really cool! Your momma must be the queen of flowers! Which would make you the princess! Princess Flower!"

    Such a young mind he had. It was logical to know that would one day change, but for now Thaniel lived in his innocent and unique view of the world quite comfortably and happily. It was when she refers to his father that he tilts his head slightly, curiosity sweeping quickly across his features. "Do I?" Turning his small head, he looks back at himself noting the dapple gray that made up his coat.

    "I haven't met anyone else that looks like me yet. He must be pretty cool!" He refuses then to mention the lack of her father in her life. He could see how her smile fades for a moment, and he of course knew how strenuous it could be to miss a parent you never met and he wasn't ready to break the happy mood with sad talks. He smiles a bit more a fast paced glance of relief passing across his features when she smiles once more and shifts his weight.

    If he knew that it was him making her smile he probably wouldn't know how to react. He had never made anyone smile before, not in his short time outside of the womb and so he wasn't yet aware of how much of an effect that could have on someone. It was when she steps closer that he tilts his head slightly in curiosity staying as still as possible once more almost as though he was afraid to move in case he scared her off.

    "No, this is my first time here! I was exploring when I found it." He giggles slightly at the sight of her eyes getting a bit wider and then smiles. "I just thought it was a big meadow! But then I realized its for us!" Of course he wasn't referring to just himself and Quinn. He was referring to all the foals but he didn't feel the need to vocalize such. It sounded better that way anyway.
