'Ahh, you think as well of my son as I do, I am happy for that.' Dory turned, tugging on Swafi Jr's ear who squirmed in embarrassment as she did so.
'Muuum,' he said, sounding and looking like a child for a moment. Dory chuckled.
'See? He puts up with all my funny qualities.' she listened to the young mare and tried to think.
'Yes? It may be that I did one day, but sadly I cannot remember her now. I'm afraid my herd is all that you see, I would not be a good leader with my memory!' she smiled.
'Well I'd like that very much, but only if you think you can put up with me.'
Swafi Jr felt happiness, as though things were finally slotting together; for him, and for his mother. If she felt like she wasn't losing her son and simply gaining a daughter-in-law then she would be content about him having found a mate.

Cassie giggled at the sight of Jr and then looks towards her. "Ms. Dory.. It is not the mind that makes a good leader. It is the heart and the will that makes a good leader. I assure you, Ms. Dory. It is something that my mother taught me while growing up." She looks over to the older mare then smiled. "I assure you, madam.. If I can handle Jr.. then I can handle you."
She stood by Jr then nuzzles him. "I love him very much, Ms. Dory... It would make him the happiest stallion if I was to stay in his life and yours. I can help you with anything. My mother taught me to have a big heart for others. Jr here already have a special place in it.. just like you just gotten a place... In other words, I think if you see like you are gaining a new daughter than losing him, you would be happier." She looks up at her mate and burrs. "Do not fret, my love.. I'll help you. It is not just your burden anymore.. It is mine as well. I'll help as much I can."

'But really I think having a good memory is also needed,' Dory said, chuckling at Cassie's words.
'Handle him eh? Is he still shy, blushes at everything you say?' she seemed to recall this son did that, had been reticent around mares that weren't her.
She looked at the younger mare as she spoke, listening to the truth and wisdom in her words. She knew that it had never been easy for Swafi Jr, looking out for his mother when it should have been the other way around.
'Well, not my mother a burden, just the situation.' Swafi Jr added hastily in case his mother should get the wrong idea but it seemed that she hadn't. He nudged Cassandra back, feeling warm again but determined to master his feelings as a stallion should.

Cassie nodded softly while flickering her tail back and forth. "I don't think a good memory is needed if you have the right partner in life." She said with a smile, looking up at Jr. "I think he is growing out of the shyness.. at least that is what I see. He is a sweet stallion with a huge heart unlike I have ever seen, Ms. Dory." She felt like she is belonged with Jr and Dory as part of a family.. at least she'd hoped so. She knew the situation quite well.. but in a different aspect.
"My mother is a single mother as well.. She practically raised my half brother all by herself. She is a strong mare for her age. I learned how to be a strong mare from her by watching her. You are indeed a strong mare, Ms. Dory. Maybe not in the same ways as my mother but in other ways. Do you know that when one sense is not so good, the other senses will be stronger? Maybe like your sense of smell? I can easily see why you love the beach. The smell of saltwater and sand.. The sounds of the tides are quite smoothing as well.. It seems to make any pains of the heart to go away even if it is for a little awhile."
Cassie looks up at Jr and nuzzled softly. "You know that I didn't mean it like that, Jr. I just want to help you just like a life partner should do." She said with her eyes sparkling for him. "I know you are a strong stallion.. I'll be there for you no matter what. You don't have to change anything because I love you just the way you are." She whispered in front of his mother with a burring smile.

'Aww, you two are so sweet together.' Dory cooed, knowing full well that this would embarrass her son again. It was good natured teasing though, bought about because she knew him so well.
'Well, I'm not sure having a faulty memory is a lack of sense, I don't think I hear or smell, or taste anything in an extra-ordinary way. At least I don't recall being able to..' she added with a wink.
Swafi Jr shot his mother a look, poking his tongue out at her, all the while squirming in his skin. It was nice that Cassie had this affection for him, but the mare-shy part of him was insisting that this was very soon and he should run for the hills! He breathed in deeply to calm himself and gently lipped at Cassie's mane.
'I can see that you mean that, and I am glad. Though I am a fool, and a novice at relationships, I will try to be all that you deserve.'

Cassie listened to Ms. Dory while murring gently, standing right by Jr. "Thank you for the compliment, Ms. Dory. I think Jr. is a bit shy when it comes to our relationship." She said while giggling. "I think it is very cute when he gets alittle squirmy like that."
She tilts her head slightly as she smiled. "I still think you are a special mare, Ms. Dory. Because you wouldn't have a extra-ordinary son if you weren't one. He has been there for you for all of his life." She smiled as she moved off towards Jr. "Jr! You shouldn't stick your tongue out at her like you are a foal. Silly stallion." She nuzzles him ever so gently before feeling him nipping at her mane. Her gaze looked up at him and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
She hears his words for her and then said "You don't have to try, Jr. And you are not a fool to me..You are just doing what you can." She said with a wink.

'He never was very good with the mares..I don't think anyway.' Dory looked skywards as she tried to get her memory working on that point.
'But then he's not had time for love and relationships, not when he is making sure his old mum remembers where her home is.' she flicked her ears, smiling with warmth at Swafi Jr.
'But I am a foal..when she's around at any rate.' Swafi Jr quipped, nosing her back gently, still feeling embarrassed at any show of affection in front of his mother.
Dory looked between the young mare and her son.
'I can go if you like.' she said with a teasing wink.

She tilts her head as she burrs gently. "Ms. Dory.. If I recall correctly, there is a herb out there that can help you improve your memory." She smiled gently at Jr, flickering her long tail. "Jr..." She could help but laugh at what he had said. She then smiled sheepishly. "Do not take it as an insult, Ms Dory. I do believe that is a compliment from him." She chuckled once more then take a step back from Jr. "..Jr, dear. I think it would be better if you act more like yourself. Do not be so burden to hide how serious you can be.. or how you care about me. I am not one to hide my love from family." She said in a soft tone of her voice. She lays her head against Jr's neck, murring. "Your mother is proud of you. She wanted you to settle down. That is what I see from her." She looks towards Dory. "Am I right, Ms Dory? I know how hard it is for him. And you know I'll help you as well... You are more than welcome to call me your daughter.. that is if Jr don't mind." She grins gently.

'Oh no, it's fine. I know I can be embarrassing.' Dory nudged her son with a happy laugh.
'Yes? Well it's something to consider but generally I'm quite happy as I am. Can't complain..' she tapped a hoof on the floor.
'At least I don't think I complain too much.' the mare laughed.
'Daughter? Well okay, as long as I don't actually forget that you aren't and really think you are mine..that might get weird.'
'Muuum.' Swafi Jr softly said before looking at Cassandra.
'It's not that, it's just..'
His mother came to his rescue, gently interjecting with the common sense she often randomly had.
'Give him time, I can see he has affection for you, but is just finding it hard to express it. And doubly so with me around.'
