 Kulasi emerged from the river soaking wet. Her fur heavy with all the water was pleasant. It was hot, unnaturally hot seeing the time of year it was, and the water helped cool her. Besides the heat it was a gorgeous day. The sun was out no clouds in the sky. The air smelt of flowers and water and earth. Sweet and fresh. The wind barely playing on her skin. She smiled and looked to the sky letting the sun soak into her face."Did you find any shells for the garden Ku?" Said a very familiar voice. Kuu turned to find her her friend Akiru perched on a branch just above her head. "No I wasn't looking.Last time you said you had enough shells and stones for your garden. That they were over crowding the flowers we'd planted." She watched as he shifted his weight back and forth looking anywhere that wasn't her face. "Yes but Maybe just one more? They're just so pretty." Kuu shook her head. "I'm not getting you any more till you get rid of some." Ku started forward ignoring Akirus noise of horror at the idea of getting rid of his collection. She walked over to the corner of her closed off clearing with the garden and checked to see how the plants were doing. They seemed fine so she turned back around and found a spot just under the trees where most of her was in the sun but her face in the shade. It was mid day the sun warm on her skin. The swim she just finished and the warmth worked together to drift her off to sleep dreaming of the birds singing around her.
When Akiru noticed she had fallen asleep he stopped his noise and slowly replaced her flower that she had removed to swim. He groomed her mane some before settling on the crook of her neck. Not sleeping just watching protecting like he always tries to do for her.

Siébel was enjoying the sunny day by flying around the meadow's near her herd's territory. She was getting better and better at this whole flying business. Since neither of her parents had wings, she didn't really have a good mentor to help her fly. Her Uncle Xandir helped when he could, but she didn't like being a pest. But as time grew on she was getting the hang of it. She at least new the basics pretty well - how to gain lift and catch an updraft. She could even land most of the time without falling on her face!
As she enjoyed the feel of the wind through her feathers, she caught the sight of something brilliant coming out of the water of the stream. It was red and pink like some kind of a flower! She circled lower, and was happy to see it was a new Soquili she hadn't met before. Eager to make acquaintances, she circled overhead, looking for a good landing site. "Hi there!" she called from above, smiling down at her.

Akiru looked up startled. The voice calling out was unexpected, although he was technically watching out for the chance that a Soquili would come by it never happened so he didn't expect it. He flew out of his perch on Kuu and up to her ears. He stared judging the mare seeing if she would be good person for Kuu to know. She was smiling openly and was friendly in her greeting. She'd probably be a good mare for her to know. To maybe help her get over her fear of Soquili. First he smiled wide as his birdy face could "Hello! What are you doing up there miss?" he said at the same time he pinched and pulled Kuu's ear.Kuu flicked her ear and opened her eyes being jarred awake by Akiru, Aki predicting this jumped for a second and landed as the ear righted it's self. She blinked and lifted her head slightly to scan the grounds. then when she heard him say 'Up there' She looked up and stopped her self just before she saw the flying mares face. She lowed her head quickly thinking what aki was doing asking her questions and not telling her to go away! But then she calmed down rationalizing it as Aki just being polite, That he wouldn't bring her into the conversation. Ignoring the fact that he woke her up. Kamiki It's cool you can always take your time. Though I'll probably ke you if it's longer then a week if thats cool?

"Why flying of course," the mare said to the little bird. Her voice was feminine but slightly gravely. "It's such a beautiful day, I love the feel of the breeze in my wings. Don't you?" she asked the little critter.
Siébel began to wind down in long spirals, finally landing. It wasn't exactly graceful - she hit pretty hard and stumbled several paces - but she managed to stay on all four hooves. Smiling and looking father proud of herself, she shook her wind-blown hair out of face and started walking back towards the mare. "Hi, nice to meet you," she addressed towards the pink flower-like mare. "My name is Siébel." She smiled welcomingly at the mare, and her familiar. Moon_Princess_Yuki That's fine, you can poke me! However, towards the end of the month I tent to try and focus on cleaning out my old/dead RPs and focusing on stats, but I promise I'll get quicker at the beginning of the new month smile

Aki smiled and chuckled, because of course she was flying he could see that. That wasn't what he meant by the question. He was going to tell her as much till he heard her question. He didn't really know if he liked the feeling of wind under his wings. He rarely ever flew. And if he did it was very short distances. He always felt a duty to stay by Kuu's side. They had been with each other when he was just a chick and she hadn't even left her basket. And Kuu couldn't fly so how could he leave her side? So he did know. "I don't really know. I don't really fly all that often. I prefer to stay near my friend here." He said trying to play it cool. This realization that he never actually flies was shocking. He could easily fly for a bit and come back but he doesn't.Kuu tried to hide her face. She wanted to not be seen. She hoped Aki would be a good enough of a distraction. But no the mare had to notice her. Had to introduce herself. And now Kuu being the overly polite person she was had to respond. and so she did in an almost inaudible voice from nerves, "Hello miss Siebel. It's a pleasure to meet you as well. My name is Kulasi" Her eyes never looking up."It is a pleasure to meet you. I'm Akiru. But you can call me Aki."Kamiki Okay that makes total sense.

Siébel Had to strain to hear the mare, taking a few steps closer and leaning her head in. "Uh..." she didn't quite catch what she said...it seemed to start with a K. "I'm sorry, I didn't quite catch that. Did you say Katelyn?"
She noticed her downcast eyes and shy demeanor, it reminded her a bit of a mare in her herd named Amitorlin. Hopefully Siébel didn't look scarey or something...? She tossed her mane and smoothed it out with one of her wings. There, that should be better.

Kuu flinched slightly when asked to repeat herself. She really didn't like having to repeat her self. But she did she breathed in and spoke in a quieter then normal but louder then a whisper. "I apologize for speaking in such a way you could not understand me the first time. My name is Kulasi and I find it is a pleasure to meet you." She hopped the mare could hear her this time. Having to repeat again would be torturous. Still she continued to look away. Even if she knew her behavior was causing the lovely mare to believe Kuu thought she was scary looking Kuu would still look away. No matter how rude it may be. Seeing someones face was much worse then being rude to Kuu.

Siébel leaned in closer, her ears pricked and facing forward. "Oh!" she said, with a warm smile. "Kulasi! That's much prettier than Katelyn anyway!" She stepped a few paces closer. "I'm Siébel, its nice to meet you, too!" She shifted her weight from hoof to hoof as she looked over the shy pink mare, eyes darting to Aki for some kind of a direction. "Uhm.... so I thought you were a flower at first!" she said, trying to break the ice.

Kuu flinched. This was such an awkward situation. It was one of the main reasons she hates interacting with others. And listen to this poor mare,Siebel, trying to make it less so. Kuu tried her best to go along with her and help but she didn't know how. "Thank you very much. I also believe Kulasi suites me better then Katelyn." That was okay right? Ugh. she didn't know! And now she was saying something about her being a flower? Well she was wearing a flower from her homeland. and she was covered is shapes that look like those flowers so it's probably not all that surprising. "I do suppose I have some attributes like a flower does so it is not at all surprising that you do." Is that an okay response? Se didn't know. Maybe if she makes a joke? That'd be okay right? "I believe you also can be easily mistake for a bird." Is that funny? She didn't know.Aki didn't know if he could watch this much longer. it was so awkward. He couldn't help grinning though. "She's actually named after a flower so maybe you weren't so wrong? Kulasi is another name for the flower that she wears. Does Siebel have a special meaning as well?"

Siébel was happy that the mare was talking back now, but she was wondering why she still seemed so uncomfortable. She was just a tomboy wind...what would have happened had she stumbled across Sumi-e or something even actually scarey, like a Kalona or skinwalker?
It wasn't like Siébel was overly concerned about her appearance but she certainly didn't want to look scarey. "Yeah, my mom had flowers all over her!" she said cheerfully. "And my dad has a stained glass like bird on him, its pretty cool. But neither of them had wings, and I do! So I guess I am kind of like a bird!" She spread her wings for effect.
She looked back towards Aki as he spoke, thankful for the help. "Oh! Kulasi is kind of a flower? I didn't know that. I don't think Siébel means anything special, just what my dad named me, heh."

"Thanks!" she said, taking the compliment with pride. She didn't think she was too hard to look at herself. I mean, she wasn't as...delicate looking as some Soquili. Like this mare...she was pink and dainty with a soft voice and a long pretty hair that wasn't all frizzy likes hers.
"So, where do you call home?" she asked.

'Thanks' that was something Kuu wasn't used to. No one really ever thanked her for things. It made her cheeks turn pink under her fur and a small smile sneak onto her lips. Only to be gone the next moment when the mare asked about her home. She made a puzzled face that her bangs hid. Glanced around as if she was trying to find the proper answer to the question. Then tried her best to answer it in the most polite way she could think of. "Well I suppose the place I call home now is here in this small clearing. It is the place me and Akiru found and we both enjoy spending time here" the bird smiled and nodded. "Where is it that you call home if you do not mind me asking miss Siebel." Kuu accidentally slipped back into using the formal way of addressing her, it being more comfortable for her.

"Oh you don't have to call me 'Miss'," she said with a chuckle. "That's what you call old withered mares. I'm just plain 'ol Siébel."
She looked around the little meadow and gave a nod. "Yeah this place is pretty nice," she said. "I actually live really close to here! In the valley at the base of those mountains there," she said, pointing towards the towering mountains in the distance with her wing. "That's where mah dad and my uncles and all my family and stuff live. I wander sometimes, but always end up back there. Home, ya know. We're always lookin' for more Soquili, ya know, that need a home and all."
She smiled, then seemed to realize what she was implying. "Oh, not there's anything wrong with this place."

Kuu kinda really wanted to correct her because no Miss was not for older mares, mama was for older mares miss could be used for any young mare older then a baby. Even foals could be considered miss if you were being overly polite to a foal. But it would be rude to tell this mare she just met that she was wrong. And she had already told her t not call her miss and it was Kuu's own silly need to be super polite and not use informal names that caused her to call her miss in the first place. So Kuu nodded slightly and said "oh I apologize I'll try and refrain from calling you miss from now on, Siebel." It was a little difficult not saying Miss but it's what she wanted so Kuu needed to do it.
Kuu blushed a little as Siebel complimented the living space she had spent time picking it then making it look nice, it felt like she was being complimented and it was nice. "Thank you I very much like this small clearing it's secluded and very few soquili disturb me here, not that you are disturbing me by being here, some company can be nice every once in a while. I do not believe I could live in a place that is full of different soquili. I am sure your home is very nice and comforting to you, that is what makes home home." When she realized she had spoken so much and freely given her own opinion she was embarrassed and scared. Her opinion was often belittled and hated on when given, or at least it was when she lived at home. She brassed herself for Siebel turning on her and getting furious about her getting out of place and giving an unwanted opinion.
