For a moment that stretches into infinity, Oren studies the mare and the mare studies him in return. Her coloring is normal, he thinks, but her stance, her eyes and her scars, interest him all the same. She will have stories to tell, he would bet, even though they might not be the most fun ones, still, he believes that there is something there at any rate.
She studies him, too, and he finds it kinda funny - not many people watch so closely, and in a way it reminds him of Mama. Never mind that though, he has started a conversation and it would be strange not to respond to her question. He lights up a little, then shakes his head. ”Not really. I was just curious...” he trails, takes a breath and then the dam bursts. ”Are you new in Beqanna? Where from? Where are those scars from?” he tilts his head, plainly asking for these things out of pure curiosity. ”Are you gonna live here now? Do you have a home yet?” his stream of questions continues and then he shuts himself up, biting his lower lip in the same way as before.
Before he makes it worse, he should give her the chance to answer at least a few of those. At least that’s what Mama always says, though she often laughs about it when he lets go like that. He knows it’s impolite though - Rosey says so, anyway.
