She had slept for, perhaps, far longer than she should have; too comfortable to get up despite the knowledge that her long, lithe limbs would be in need of a good stretching once she got up again. She would need a bath, of course... Something to wash the scent of fear off of her coat along with the traces of the scratches on her pale coat.
Golden eyes opened slowly, blinking against the soft haze of the cool morning that had crept up after the dark of night. She closed them once more as she carefully pushed herself to her hooves, stretching her body out as her tail flickered behind her. Mm... A bath was definately needed.

He'd gotten up much before the white mare with almost the same desire. A quick scrub down in the stream and breakfast had been in order. The cool water had soothed aching joints and the furious rubbing against the stones lining the stream bed had woken him up nicely.
Currently he was letting himself dry off in a rare patch of sun while nibbling on a few flowers.

She followed the stream along until she came to an area of water deep enough that she could easily wade into it up to her knees. She let the water tickle along her legs, lowering her head to take a soft sip. It was cool, yes, but something about it seemed just right. She could let the sun warm her as she dried afterwards... Or maybe she'd find another way to keep warm like... A brisk run or something.
She stayed in the water until she was certain that her coat was clean, tail flickering up and holding high as she climbed up the bank. She gave her head a light toss before heading for a patch of sun where she could wait until at least her tail dried. No need to get it messy...

"Ahh .. so the kitten has finally decided to grace the world with her waking presence." He chuckled softly as he watched her move down the stream toward his patch of sun. It was the only good one for quite a bit so he'd guessed that eventually she'd make her way toward it.

She gave her head a light toss as she approached him, nickering softly as she brushed her cheek against his. "A Kat's nap never lasts that long... I couldn't exactly deprive the world of myself forever now, could I?"

"I'm sure there are a few things that would mourn the loss." He nipped at her ear playfully as she nuzzled him. He would mostly likely be counted in that for a time.
"Have you eaten? There's some cotton flowers here that are absolutely divine"

"Mm... A few might." A slight smirk curved her lips as her ear flickered against his, tsking softly. "Now, now... If the cotton blossoms were nearly as good as you've just said they were I doubt you would have had nearly as much intrest in my ear. I'm certain that I can find something tastier for breakfast."

"Doubtful." He laughed as he leaned down and took a bite of the flowers. They were delightful and he doubted unless a rather long trek was undertaken there'd be anything else as good around. They were fresh and new and had to have grown up in the last few days

Rather than respond with words right away she leaned down, carefully nibbling at one of the flowers still dangling from the corner of his mouth before leaning down to pluck one of her own. They were rather tastey... Even if she could think of other things that might have been just as delightful.

"Now now kitten. It's not nice to steal from others." He grinned at her as he shook his head enough to situate his hat properly. The sun had come up enough that he didn't want to have to see too much if it. Ever present shade for his eyes was delightful too.

"Mm... I wasn't stealing. I was taking something you offered... You did offer flowers, didn't you darling?" Her brow lofted slightly as she lifted golden eyes to glance at him. The warmth of the sun was quickly chasing away the remainder of coolness from the water away. This would be a wonderful way to spend a day.

"Ahh but it was in my mouth and therefor already in my possession. I said to have some of the flowers. Not to have some of the ones i was nibbling on." He flicked his tail slightly just to see how damp it still was and was pleased to find that it wasn't too bad.

She shook her head slowly, chuckling softly as golden eyes began to gleam. "The good part was dangling from your mouth, not sitting in it... A matter of technicality, I'm afraid. As is the talk of which flowers you said for me to have. You should be more specific."
That said she gave her head a light toss, tail flickering to toss a few droplets of water in his direction as she trotted the short distance between him and another small patch of flowers. She dipped her head down, plucking one carefully from the ground to test it while casting a glance partially shielded by thick lashes back towards the stallion. A grin began to curve her lips as she closed them, keeping that rather pleasant image of the stallion in her mind.

"You still shouldn't take from others without asking. possession is possession no matter the degree." Since they had been with those that were already in his mouth the ones she'd stolen had been his. Even if only to a degree. The small degree of 'his' was all that truly mattered.
It was wonderfully nice for her to not be playing her usual little games. This one seemed to have a different set of rules to it even if a few of the actions were the same. It looked far more promising than their usual banter.
Perhaps he could convince her that the games she had been playing were only the childish games of a little girl without telling her so. He had a feeling she would appreciate the games of adults far more than those of children.
Leaning down to take another bite of the flowers he swallowed them before he moved slowly toward her. Reaching her side he nuzzled her shoulder softly.

She turned, letting her eyes open slowly as he nudged her shoulder. A slight smirk curved her lips, brow lofting while she eyed him. "Back on that talk of 'posession', are we? If you are going to lead us along that road I suppose that I could argue that as much as the flower was yours, I said I was also and, thusly, I wasn't really taking from you... But taking from myself?"
She let those words settle for a moment, trying not to think too hard on them least she find herself just as lost in their weave as any other might be. Her head lowered, teeth closing around another delightful patch of flora.
