 He could hear the laughter. He had heard Jase's response. He heard Stargazer's too. He was, however, RATHER THOROUGHLY BUSY with turning bright red under his pale fur in frustrated embarrassment at the Damn Pots ruining his attempt at a stern LECTURE. After having a long, silent blush,where he pondered the possibility of dying of apoplectic shock from pure shame, he took a deep breath and backed... carefully... out of the cave. After he fully emerged, he said "Stargazer. Why don't you come out here and meet my friend?"
He then turned to address Miroqi. "So kind of you to laugh at some one having trouble." His tone was utterly sour, and then he turned to face Jase again. "Would you mind, terribly, helping me with the straps that came undone? As for this... Well the short form is I have 2 brothers and a sister. Stargazer was SUPPOSED to stay home, with our siblings. Instead, the young silly foal followed me here. He was... much too young for me to leave alone, but for his safety, I didn't want everyone to know about him... Not until I was sure what was IN these lands... And I couldn't drag him everywhere." He looked apologetically at Jase.

Chroma gave an incredible, deep sigh of relief as the pots FINALLY came off. "Oh thank the stars those are off for now. No more clanging and banging." He glanced at Star, then, and shrugged a little. "Well that might have been because you weren't supposed to come yet." He gave a very deep sigh. "Well what's done is done. These are pots. We can steep our teas in them." He gave a soft groan, at the thought of tea. "Uhhhhhhhh I can't wait to have real, proper tea again. How I miss it, so very much..."
He glanced up, hearing hooves, in time to see a grey stallion with slightly shaggy mane coming up the path towards them. "What have we here? Another comer to this gathering of men?" He looked amused, for it really was a lot of males. If he didn't know Auri lived here, he'd think this region devoid of mares.

Jase stopped dead in his tracks his head jerking backwards and his ears flopping over to sit at odd angles, "You have a brother? Why have I never heard of this Star..." And now Chroma's butt was left sticking out of the cave entrance. And he was giving someone a stern talking too. What under the blazing sun was happening?
If Stargazer had his eyes open he might have had some advance warning as to whom was approaching. As it was though, his first indication that his brother was home were the disapproving words that left his mouth. Words that didn't bother Stargazer even one little, tiny bit.
