  Tic Tac Toe grins in amusement as her buddy/familiar Bird decided to play with her son today instead of scampering around, causing trouble for her. She walks along the coastline with her son whom is purposely splashing her with cold water and she grins at him. "Tropical, don't you even th-" She started to say as she gets a huge face full of water and she yelped, spluttered then laughed loudly. A mischievous grin appears on her face as she steps closer to the water and her orange eyes dances with laughter which blew her cover as a mischievous mare.Bird chitters and chattered his day away on Tropical Oasis' back, randomly braiding his mane and tail along with just making a bird nest out of his mane. His tail froze in a mid swish as the stallion beneath him splashes his mistress and his eyes went wide. "You are going to get it!" He said in alarmed voice as he just barely jumped off the stallion when the mare bodyslammed him into the water. "I TOLD YOU!! I TOL... ooo!! SHINEY!!!" He spots something glinting few feet away and sprinted over, to covet the shiny stone while completely forgetting about mother and son roughhousing in the ocean.Tropical Oasis decided to spend a day with his dear mother since he was gone most of his adult life, discovering the joys and knowledge of the life but naturally he came back once in while to visit his family. They decided to go down the beach and he was feeling extra frisky as ever so he romped and played in the water while chatting with his mother, catching up on current events. He was used to mother's familiar's antics to the point where it is a second nature for him to have his hair resembling a bird nest by the time Bird is done with him so he paid Bird no attention unless it is to include him in the conversations.
A wicked gleam appears in his eyes as he purposely starts to make more splashes in the water, splashing his mother. He continued that antic for few minutes before he goes deeper into the ocean where he could easily make a huge splash if he wanted to, and his mother naturally followed him without realizing it. When his mother realized what he was up to, it was too late! He forcefully pushed the water into mother's face and laughed outrageously at the reaction he got. He turns to playfully gloat to Bird about it when Bird suddenly jumped off and he found himself bodyslammed into the water. He flailed as he surfaced, coughing and laughing. "Ma!" He playfully protested as he used his muzzle to splash his mother more.

Dappletail painted a gorgeous, if not fragile, picture on the sand. The sunlight glistened across her beautiful coat and brought some of the colors out that had never been there before. Her freckles seemed to be flicked onto her face by a dust storm, her cat markings feathered and soft as she was.
It had taken her a good long while to hunt this beach out of all the others. It was quiet and secluded so she didn't have to run in fear every time something larger than her came calling. Just looking at her you wouldn't be able to tell that she was so quiet and demur, but she was. She was horribly shy and awkward when it came to normal conversation. Even when it came to being physically around others she was reclusive.
But she was beautiful, that much was honest. Not only was she beautiful but she was soft and from a distance looked like a wild butterfly picked off the gossamer winds and put on earth.
That was just conjecture however, she wasn't a flutter at all. She was barely larger than an usdia, but she was still large enough to be taken seriously as a horse. If you stared long enough you could almost see her heart fluttering in her chest as she stood on strong legs from years of running.
Dappletail was strong of heart but not personality.
Splashing caught her off guard. Dapple had lifted her head to take in a deep breath again and water sprayed up out of the ocean, splattering over her hocks and hooves. Ice colored eyes stared out deeper into the cresting waves and saw the boisterous pair that danced within them. Widening her eyes she nearly launched away from the water in fear and fled back to the fields she had left behind.
It took all of Dappletail's might to stay where she was, anchored to the sand as she watched them play. A silent observer.

Bird's ears twitches as he looks up from the shiny rock he was cooing over and spotted something even better than a shiny rock, that's a shiny horse! The shiny rock falls from his paws to the ground, long forgotten as the 'stars' appears in the raccoon's eyes. "Shiny!" Bird cries out excitedly as he makes a beeline toward Dapple. "Shiny!! MINE MINE MINE!!" He screeches as he leaps and tries to latch on to whatever of the mare he could get his paws on. Bird is determined to hoard this shiny to himself, not fully understanding that the 'shiny' he is after is a living and breathing soquili like his mistress and her son.
Tic Tac Toe was the first one to spot a beautiful mare standing on the shore and was about to call out a greeting when her son dunked her once again. She squealed with surprised laughter as she surfaces once again for air and shot Tropical Oasis a grin then splashed him once again. "Come on. I am getting tired." She says with a laugh as she swims back to the shore, occasionally riding the waves while shrieking with foal-like exuberance. "I have wings, just like your father!" She calls back to her son as she 'lands' back into the water and waddled toward the shore. "Bird, no!!!" She yelped as she sees the colorful coon approaching the mare at the alarming speed with 'stars' in her eyes.
The laughter went out of her eyes as she knew that everything will spiral out of the control if the mare felt Bird suddenly latching to her. If the mare looked at Tic Tac Toe, she would see a worried and alarmed expression on the bright mare's face
Tropical Oasis cackled with delight as he managed to dunk his mother when she looked away and he scooted away from her, giggling his head off when he gets splashed. He relishes this kind of moment with his mother because they can be silly and goofy as much as they liked to because the entire family is basically foals at heart and they act like it! "Getting tired? Awww, mama!" The stallion pouted playfully at his mother but followed her. His mother have mastered the art of wave-riding and he still have yet to learn how to do it so he looked behind him to see a wave starting to crest up. He scooted backward but was too late and the wave engulfed him, spitting him out coughing and hacking for air.
With wet mane matted in his face, Tropical blindly stumbled toward the shore while the waves contiunes to try to swallow him up. The words "Bird, no!!" reaches to his ears and he tosses his head with huffing blows of air, trying to get the wet mane to move out of his eyes. Just when he managed to get mane to scoot out of his eyes, the wave crashes into him, sending the mane back in the place.

Dapple had stood there in total awe of the pair that were frolicking within the waves, her eyes taking it all in like reflections that stayed where they were. It was because of this that she didn't at first recognize that anything was about to happen to her.
If anyone had asked her, Dappletail would have told them that racoons were very happy creatures that loved to hoard things that they saw as beautiful and shiny. She'd have told them that with a slight bit of trepidation and fear that she was speaking to someone, but with pride in her knowledge of the animal kingdom none-the-less.
However she didn't realize just how close reality and knowledge was coming to her until the raccoon leapt from the waves and was racing towards her. Fear flashed in her beautiful eyes and she reared onto her hind legs, front hooves pawing at the air for a moment before she spun.
She was fast, faster than any soquili she had thus far met. And it was ALL from fear, all from an adrenaline pumped fear that sprung deep from within her heart. Blonde flew in the wind behind her as she ran, her hooves taking her towards the closest thing she could find. That closest thing just happened to be the water.
Water sloshed at her hocks and she powered through it, glancing over her shoulder to see if the raccoon was still chasing her. Seeing that it was indeed truly still chasing her, Dapple struck out down the shoreline and wrapped back around. She was running so fast that her mother AppleJack would have been proud to see it.

"Nooo!!! No run away from me!! SHINEY!!!" Bird screeches as he puts all of his determination and power in his legs and arms, barreling down on the terrified mare that reared up then took off toward the water. "SHINEY SHINEY SHINEY!!!!" He chanted as he suddenly leapt forward just in time to grab some of the mare's blond tail when she streaked by. "MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII-" He screeches as he fought to keep a grip on precious handfuls he managed to get while he slowly tries to scramble up the tail without getting kicked. "NNNNNNE!!" He managed to finish the sentence as he bounces up and down hard on the ground since the mare is still running at the full speed. "SHINEY!!! SLOW DOWN SLOW DOWN!! Birdy is getting bru-u-u-uises!" He yelps as they went over the rocky part of the beach.
Tic Tac Toe barely jumped back when the blond mare reared up and took off for the water and she stammers, not sure what to do since Bird is just so... shiny-oriented and the mare looks like she is scared out of her mind. "W-wait!! Don't run!!" She squeaked in alarm as Dapple spun around and shot out of the water with Bird clinging precariously to the tail and she took off after the terrified mare. Her legs pumps powerfully as she raced after the terrified mare, calling out to her "Miss!! Stop please! Stop running!! Its just a raccoon!!" Part of her just had to admire the fact that this mare is really fast so she have to put everything she have into keeping up with the mare so both of them (mare and Dapple) won't get hurt somehow. "Slow down!! please!!" She tries again to get the mare to at least slow down or stop.
Seeing a small hill that could give her more ground between her and the mare, Tic Tac Toe sprinted toward the hill and took a huge jump which gained few precious inches between them. "Miss!! We aren't going to hurt you!!" She calls out to the mare, feeling quite breathless but she is determined not to stop until the mare stops running and calm down.
Tropical Oasis just managed to get the wet mane out of his eyes just in time to see an angel (in his opinion) rearing up and sprinted toward the water with his mother's raccoon making a beeline toward her. He moves toward the shore where the waves wouldn't be able to abuse him at their whim and began to laugh because the sight of a mare being spooked by Bird is hilarious as heck to him. Tropical was going to call out to the mare and tell her that she's going in wrong way but he was doubled over laughing, not realized that the mare was really scared out of her wits and his mother was trying to calm the mare down if she can ever catch up with the mare.
He stumbles few more feet as a violent fit of giggles broke out once again and he topples over, laughing uncontrollably until he finally got it out of his system. He slowly gets up as he could see that the mare and his mother is 'shrinking' so he decided to join in and see if he could catch up so he took off running but occasionally, he had to stop to ride the fit of giggles out because it is so darn hilarious to him. He will have to give the mare a huge kiss for giving him a very good laugh of the day.

Her tail! It had her tail! Raccoons, much like humans, had paws that looked like hands and could grip things within them. The worst part of it was that they could hold on with a stubborn strength born out of willpower. Dapple didn't have anything to grab with so she wasn't sure of the mechanics on the entire motion, however she was aware that the little thing had HER.
The words of the raccoon and the mare that was now chasing her as well were lost. Feeling the raccoon bounce around behind her as it gripped her pretty braided tail, Dapple put on another surge of energy, feeling her heart and lugs expand almost to an unfathomable depth. Just a little further, just enough that she could get the thing off of her.
Peering back, her icy eyes took in the form of a mare flying across the sand towards her. She was still a bit back, but the leap that she had taken made the yellow mare look as though she were flying high above the sands. It was only when her hooves were back on the ground that Dapple realized she didn't have wings. Her muzzle was moving as she yelled something in Dapple's direction.
Something that she didn't catch as she swung her head back around and barreled back towards the ocean again. She was so distracted by both the raccoon and the mare chasing her that she didn't even notice the large male until her nose was scant inches from his barreled chest.
Over she went as she smashed into the orange male before her, legs tangling with his and her face on his rump. Both of Dapple's hind legs were up in the air as her front legs were tangled in with his, only to fall down flat beneath her when gravity finally figured out which end was top and which was bottom of the mess of Soquili that was laying on the beach now.
Dapple moved groggily and gasped in great heaving breaths as she tried to get her brain to kick back into gear again. All she knew was that she was tangled with the male.

Yelping every time he hits the ground, Bird stubbornly clung to the tail as he tries to inch his up toward the mare's rump. When the mare suddenly spun around to run toward the ocean again, her tail whip-lashed which caused the coon to lose the grip on the tail and sent him flying at alarming speed toward Tic Tac Toe's head. He didn't have any time to cry out a warning as he flailed in midair and he collides with Tic Tac Toe's head which caused them both to go toppling to the ground. The coon wobbles away from the flailing mare dazedly as he determinedly crawls wobbly toward 'Shiney' because he is not going to give his prize up that easily.
Tic Tac Toe almost released a sigh of relief when she saw the mare slowing down considerably but she didn't expect the next move the mare made which is a quick U-turn and sprinting back toward the water. "No, no no !! Wait Wait Wait Wait!!!" She yelped breathlessly as she scrambled to make that same U-turn but the second the mare made that turn, her blond tail whip-lashed and sent the coon flying.
Her orange eyes widen in horror as the equally shocked coon was shooting toward her face and she couldn't react fast enough! She got face full of scrambling coon and the force of that collision sent them toppling to the ground with a violent impact. Tic Tac Toe squealed as she flailed and fought to get back up since she is dazed by that powerful collision and she managed to block the coon's attempt to crawl toward the mare that is in the similar situation as her.
~~
Tropical takes in a deep breath as he tries to fight back the giggles that is leaking through his muzzle while he takes few steps forward before he lost that valiant battle with giggles. When he straighten himself up to contiune the persuit, he found himself staring at the exactly same mare that made his sides hurt with laughter barreling right down at him at lightning speed, he reared up and tried to scramble backward to get out of the mare's way. "Slow down!!!" He managed to squeak out as the collision happened, he clumsily scrambled few steps before falling on his rump with the mare's back right in his face. The colors exploded behind his closed eyelids as he slowly 'sinks' to the ground, completely dazed and not sure what happened.
After few seconds of dazed confusion, Tropical began to flail around because he felt his body and legs being 'pinned' down by the mare and he gasped, trying to remember how to breathe once again. After few minutes of confused flailing and heaving intake of air, he stares at the mare then bursts out laughing. "This is very fun and hilarious but let's not do this again, yes?" He says with a laugh

Her whole head was groggy and battered, legs pinned to the ground and head stuck at a bizarre angle. The world came to her ears in strangely slow mumbles. It wasn't until she felt the flailing of something that seemed to be all around her.
She shrieked momentarily and then her front legs were pinned further when the thing flailing simply gave up.
Words finally filtered into her panicked brain as it slowed down. A deep voice, a male. Blowing her blonde hair out of her face and turning her head as far as she could in order to see his face, Dapple took in the dark ring around his face instantly and saw the amusement in his eyes.
He was laughing, laughing at how she had bumbled into her. It made her want to laugh a little herself, but she was still so worried, still so afraid. It took her a moment to calm down her heart, and after that she took another deep breath and forced her pulse rate down.
"No, let's not please." Her voice was a bell, a gentle song that came from somewhere deep within her soul.
Dapple moved her legs a bit, her hind legs pushing up as she extricated her forelegs from within his. After a few moments she was free of the entanglement and standing before the parrot colored soquili.
Everything said to run, but a small part, a very hidden part, was telling her that he was handsome.
Very, very handsome.

Bird climbs over Tic Tac Toe's leg that was used in a failed attempt to stop him from crawling wobbly toward the mare because he is determined to get a hold of the big shiny that is all tangled up with Tropical. It is quite evident that he haven't learned that if he suddenly go after the particular mare, she will get scared and the chase happens all over again because.... the second he is sure of his footing, he took off bee-lining toward the mare with excited loud chittering sound and his bushy tail up in the tail like a striped flag.
Tic Tac Toe tries to shake off the grogginess and throbbing pain around her face where she got slammed with flailing coon's body while trying to prevent Bird from attempting to get to the poor mare. When she felt Bird climbing over her leg, she had no choice but to scramble up to her hooves clumsily because if Bird got a hold of the mare, they will have to chase her down once again. "Bird..!" She calls out to the wobbly coon breathlessly as she looks with a sinking feeling in her chest when Bird regained his composure and balance. "Look out!!!" She calls out as the colorful raccoon bee-lines toward the mare once again.
But her cry was weak because she was still out of breath and she wasn't sure if the mare heard the warning so she took few stumbling steps forward in attempt to chase after the raccoon to stop him from spooking the mare again.
~~
Tropical chuckles as his ears swivels around when he hears the mare's voice and it pleases him because the voice sounds like it comes from an angel. He worked with her to disentangle their limbs from each other as he stands up, grinning at her with his eyes dancing with laughter and amusement. He finally got a very good look at the mare standing near him since the first impression he got of her was blond and brown blur (That's what he thinks!). "I am Tropical Oasis but you can call me Tropical for short." He says with a charming yet silly grin on his face while he did this silly little bird-like squawk. If he had wings, he would be flaring them up and strutted around little bit to show off for the mare so he could see if her laughter is just as pleasant as her voice.
His tongue flopped out as he lips at the air in a goofy manner but when a streak of colors caught his eyes, his expression was a comical one - mixture of horror and laughter. Tropical didn't want the mare to feel the fear again so he swiftly moved in front of the mare but is he too late?

He really was handsome, and he sounded charming as well, his voice a little goofy and filled with the chirping calls of birds flying through the sky. It made a gentle smile appear on her face as she took all of him in. The face marking, the dark ring that took up his entire muzzle, breaking up the pretty fading white effect. His mane and tail were blue and he had... a tic-tac-toe board on his hip?
An eyebrow lifted and she shifted her withers as she gained her footing again and stood elegantly before him. On foot he was more impressive, but then so was she, her small frame dwarfed by his only gave the illusion of fragility more standing.
As such was her fragility that when the moment arose for her to calm down, another catastrophe began to happen. It took a moment for her to realize that she was once again in danger of being attached to, but suddenly the stallion that leapt in front of her.
It was the raccoon once more, it was racing for her, begging to attach to her.
But what was 'shiny'?
Once more the raccoon, that her now conscious ears caught the name Bird and recognized it, wanted to attack her. Or was it an attack?
The little thing grabbed her tail and Dappletail, suddenly emphasis on the 'tail' part, swung her tail up and looked at the raccoon now suspended by it.
"Hello." she posed quietly.
What no one saw, what few would ever see, was that Dapple's legs shook and her chest fluttered. Everything in her body wanted to cry and run away. But the stallion, Tropical, had stood his ground.
Later she would fall over and faint from this, after she had put the raccoon down.

Bird suddenly leapt and latched to the mare's tail with a surprised yet excited look on his face because he thought the mare would run off again which means he will have to run more faster. He impulsively tightens his fingers around the tail in fear of her taking off and him bouncing painfully off the ground. When the mare lifted her tail, he squeaked and squeezed his eyes closed while bracing himself for another painful adventure. Opening his eyes tentatively, Bird stares at the mare and makes a sound that is a mix of chirring and cooing in response at the mare. "Shiny?" He makes a little kneading motions in the tail while keeping a tight hold on it.
Tic Tac Toe trots up to the trio and couldn't hold back her laughter when she spotted Bird dangling from the mare's tail like a stubborn bug. "Oh Bird..." She says with attempted straight face but her eyes dances with laughter with her muzzle twitching constantly. After few minutes of staring at the comical pose Bird and the mare is in, she bursts out laughing, and her carefree and joyous laughter fills the air. Her rainbow tail flicks back and forth as she tries to contain her laughter and giggles while her eyes sparkles with tears of laughter. "I-I am sorry but that is a funny sight. I am Tic Tac Toe and I am sure you are already well acquainted with Bird" She choked the words out since the mare's tail is still lifted and the stubborn raccoon is clinging to it.
~~
Tropical Oasis beams happily when he sees a gentle smile on the mare's face and he knows he discovered a new goal which is to put the smile on the mare's face because when she smiles, it makes her look even more beautiful. Giving himself a chance to admire the mare before him, he gawked at the beautiful color of the mane and tail along with how it stood out proudly from the beautiful brown color of her coat and unique markings. But when his eyes lands on her cutie mark, he emits a loud excited squawk as he does a little dance in the spot. "Its awesome! You have marking in the same place as mine!" He squawked happily as he noses the cutie mark with snuffling noise.
Tropical stares at Bird whom stubbornly clings to the mare's tail and when his mother laughed, her laughter is infectious which caused him to burst out laughing as well. "I am sorry for Bird's antics." He grins impishly as he managed to cease with laughing but there is an occasional chortle here and there. "Mom, you know that one of those days, Bird will give someone a heart attack." He says with an amused smile on his face.

It took everything, absolutely everything for Dappletail not to squeal when the thing called her 'shiny' and run off. However, it was a raccoon, it wasn't the little one's fault that she was so skiddish and she had probably scared it just as much.
Highly unlikely but the thought was still there.
Taking a deep breath again, Dapple steeled herself and smiled once more at the little raccoon named Bird.
"No, not Shiny. Dappletail." Her bell-like voice looped from her mouth almost playfully. Her eyes glanced over to the larger mare that walked up and took in the tic-tac-toe marking on her as well before she heard the name. So mother and son were out today with their familiar.
Dapple didn't remember where her mother was, or her father for that matter. Applejack had always been a little... unconventional when it came to parenting and Taroji was a cat at heart. So he was no good at being a father, just at leaving and patrolling. And this male, this amazingly gorgeous male, he had a mother and a raccoon familiar that seemed like he was part of the family as well.
Deep down she wanted that, deep down she had always wanted that. A family.
The nuzzle on her hip made her yelp a little and drop Bird to the ground as she twisted her head to peer back at Tropical again. He was looking at her cutie mark? It was only then that it dawned on her what was on the big stallion's hip. The tic-tac-toe board was a cutie mark! He had one too! And so did his mother.
It was just like her mother Applejack! Dappletail was the only one of her brothers that got a cutie mark, neither of her brothers did. And this stallion had one too!

Bird slowly starts to make his way up to her rump so he could get a good hold on her mane if she decides to take off once again. "... Shiney...." He says sadly as his ears droops when Dapple corrected him. "SHINEY!!!" He firmly says as he gives her a determined nod before suddenly scrambling up her tail but when she dropped Bird by accident, he hit the ground with a thump. "Ow!!" He peers at his rump before he suddenly "attacks" the tail once again, scrambling up the tail to her back. "My shiney!! you no leave me." He pouts at Dappletail whom is talking to Tropical. Bird grunts as he 'pounces' on her mane and immediately starts to cuddle up with it, cooing happily.
Tic Tac Toe watches her son interact with Dappletail before her orange eyes lands on Bird whom managed climb onto the female's back. "Be careful, Bird..." She tries to sound serious but there is a hint of laughter in her voice when she tries to scold Bird for not being careful and tactful around strangers. She smiles lightly as she moves up closer to the duo and nudges Bird with her muzzle. "Do you think its time for us to get back home? I am sure Zaribe misses you." She grins at Bird whom pouted at her in response and clung stubbornly to blond mane.
A laughter bubbles out of this bright mare as she shakes her head, looking at Dappletail and Tropical as they compare each other's cutie mark. "I am afraid I lost my familiar to you, Dappletail." She says with rich amusement in her voice as she moves around to other side, but as she did, Dapple could see that this mare have a cutie mark as well. "Looks like your nickname is Shiney now." She flashes the mare a grin as she tosses her mane out of her eyes. "Bird..." Tic Tac Toe glances at the blissful raccoon who gave her a reclulant/cranky look before patting Dappletail's mane mournfully as he transfers from Dapple's mane to Tic Tac Toe's back.
"You are always welcome to visit us if you would like to, Dappletail. Just get Tropical to show you to our nesting area." The mare flashes a warm smile toward Dappletail before she turns around to leave. "Tropical, treat her like a princess. Mommy loves you!" She giggles as she takes off galloping toward the forest with Bird looking back with a mournful look on his look.
~~~~~~
Tropical Oasis blinks owlishly as the nuzzle caused the mare to yelp a little bit and he is not sure if its a good yelp or bad so he shot her an non-apologetic cheeky grin. "So cool! You have marking there. So do mom and me!" he exclaims as he wiggles his rump around in a silly manner. His eyes darts up to Bird whom stubbornly climbed back up Dappletail's tail and clung to the mare's mane, he chuckles little bit as he shakes his head in amusement. "I think you lost a familiar, mom." He laughs as he glances at Dappletail with a conspiratory wink. "Don't make a nest in this mare's mane." He eyes Bird with a slight warning gleam in his eyes because he doesn't want Dappletail to stress out or freak out if her mane gets messed up.
The stallion blinks as his mother coaxed Bird to release his hold on Dapple's mane and move onto her back. "Going home already? I was thinking all of us could go for a swim... I do owe you one." He flashes his mother an impish grin as he makes squawking noises while strutting around Dappletail with a goofy look on his face. "Do you want to go for a swim? we could doubleteam up against my mother." His eyes sparkles with mischievous glint but his mother shot that idea down by saying that Bird and she needs to go home to her mate. "Oh... ok. Tell daddy I say Hi!! and I think Miss Dappletail will definitely come for a visit." He flashes the mare a grin.
"You will definitely love my father. He's a hoot all of the time!" Tropical says with a laugh before he nudges her while giving his mother a 'oh come on!' look for the princess comment before he snickers little bit. "Don't mind my mother. She seems to think I don't know how to act around females." He says with a laugh, not seeming to be bothered by the fact that his mother said that in front of a female he liked. "So.... what about that swim?" He grins at her.

Her withers twitched and spasmed as the raccoon scrambled over her, over what seemed like every inch of her! Dappletail's chest began to heave in and out quickly from the force of it all. When he pounced on her mane the whites of her eyes rolled into sight and Dapple glanced back at him, her hooves dancing a little on the sand of the beach. She had run so much that she was now exhausted from it all.
She wanted to scream for him to get off of her and it wasn't until he leapt onto Tic Tac Toe's back that Dapple nearly slumped to the ground in relief. The raccoon was gone.
Gone and now she was... left... with....
Left with a very, very handsome male Soquili that was wiggling his butt a little and asking her if she wanted to go and play in the water. Did she even know how to swim? She couldn't remember.
Wait... yes? Yes she did know how to swim. After all, not as many Soquili had legs as strong as hers from running away from all of her problems and potential, if not benign, threats. But that wasn't good either, because it just meant that...
Visit his family? Things were running through her poor head so fast that she went cross eyed for a moment thinking about them. What in the world was she to do?
"Um... sure?" the bells tinkled through her unsure voice just as sweetly as anything else she said. "You... you have a very... lovely family."
Sometimes she hated that she stuttered, she even stuttered in her head from time to time. It was generally when she was stressed and right now her heart was beating in her chest harder than she thought it would.

He watches Dappletail in concern as he could see the stress starting to radiate off her tiny body when Bird scrambled over her and clung to her mane, he was prepared to take off after the mare if she does run again. It seems like she will have to get used to Bird climbing all over her and he hopes that she won't kneel over with heart attack. The stallion cocks his head to side as he grins at her when her ice blue eyes meets with his red eyes and he squawks at her questioningly to see what she would do.
Tropical watches Dapple steadily as he could tell that she is getting more stressed with every passing moment and he chuckles at her stuttering because he thinks its adorable of her to stutter like that. "Thank you! You should meet my dad and my other siblings. My brother have 3 children and you will definitely love them all. They are ridlicious in good way." He says with a laugh as he does a little goofy dance in front of the mare. "If you don't want to swim, we can play hide and seek or walk so we all could wind down." he flashes her a crooked charming grin.
"After all, today is your day, my dear." Tropical attempts to do a graceful bow but ends up tripping over his clumsy hooves and lands in the sand with a loud grunt. He flailed around before he scrambles up to standing position with a shameless grin. "Oops?" He says with a boisterous laugh.
