"I hope she puts her lips on you, Wyatt." Faolan cast her brother a sidelong look that indicated that was probably the worst thing she thought could happen. Ever. So distraught over her siblings, Faolan barely noticed the new mare, but something about that word- 'father.' It drew a lazy smile to her face. Ah, daddy.... wait. "Huh? Not father?"

Nalani was just about as confused as her sister was. "I'm sorry?" she questioned, tilting her head slightly. "Um, I'm afraid that I don't understand what you were trying to say. ^_^;" The brown and white mare certainly had an odd manner of speaking it seemed. Perhaps if they stayed together long enough they could come to a better understanding.

"Father not father," She repeated, really unsure on how she should say it. He wasn't blood related but she saw him as her father. "No blood," She added as her thoughts began to wheel within her mind. Hopefully they would understand but she didn't know how to put it. "Still father, no blood...Um.." She tilted her head trying to think a bit more. "Father, not father, no blood, still father...Get?"

"Why would she want to put her lips on me?" He asked astounded. "She's about as likely to do that as you."
Then he turned his attention to the quizzical female. Father, not father, no blood, still father... "So, someone is not your father, but is your father? Like... adoptions?" That must be what she was saying, but why would she bring that up. He certainly never adopted anyone!

Snorting, Faolan rolled her eyes toward the heavens. "I dunno, you figure it out. Maybe she'll fall into you, mouth-first." The thought brought a hint of a smile to her face. That was actually a rather pleasant visual. She snickered quietly to herself for a moment before finally uttering a contented sigh. "Huh? Who's adopting what now? Oh.... Oh!" She looked to the chocolate colored mare. "Like an adoptive-sire? We look like the stallion that took you in?" She puffed up her chest at that, proud. They'd been noticed! "Well, he's obviously very handsome."

"Adoptions?" She questioned testing the word on the tongue. It was the first time she had heard the word. "Don't get word. Like father not father?" She questioned, obviously getting very confused on it all. She then nodded at Faolan's last question as well as statement. "Taught many things to Cocoa. Hiding, like."

Nalani's mouth formed an 'o' of understanding when her brother brought up adoption. "Ah, ok! So we remind you of your dad. Well, that's pretty interesting. ^_^ Do you know his name?" She listened thoughtfully as Cocoa spoke being taught by him. "Yeah, hiding can come in handy sometimes. Especially if you want to surprise someone." She cast her older sister a mischievous smirk. "Right, Faolan?"

"Listen," she spoke still naming things that Brajan had taught her as a foal. Cocoa tilted her head to the side "Surprise?" She questioned not really understanding this word either. "Brajan, Father not father," she replied nodding her head.

Faolan opened her mouth to quip something back at her younger sister, but at Cocoa's revelation, her jaw went slack, absolutely useless. Whirling on the mare, she tried to form words. "Y- you-... fuh-f-father..." Her face twisted, suddenly very hurt that he would have kept something like this from them. That he might have had another daughter he had loved as much as or more than them. Or more importantly, one that he might have loved even kind-of-close to the same amount he loved her. Her eyes flashed as she came back to herself.
(("Mine!"))

Wyatt stayed silent as his sisters tried to get information out of the brown mare. Was this father/not father the reason she had such stunted speech? Maybe he was too much 'not father.' Then Cocoa revealed the name.
He too was thrown when Cocoa said their father's name. "Brajan... is your father? Or- not father?" So their father had most likely said the name before, but he'd never mentioned this other daughter specifically. Did mother know about this?! He tried to keep a level head, but it was indeed a shock. So many questions he wanted to ask... He simply sat and stared down at the ground to collect his thoughts, even as he felt Faolan tensing next to him.

Nalani blinked in surprise at this news. "Brajan is your adoptive father?" she said in slight awe, not quite taking it the way her siblings were. "Huh. That's kind of cool yet weird at the same time. Brajan is our father you see," she explained. "Why did you two part ways?"

"Father, not father, father?" She questioned getting very very confused. So confused it was making her head hurt causing her to whimper softly. "Teach go..." She muttered and then shook her head. She hadn't seen him in a while yet now he was meeting his children...maybe that was why he left her. "Hurt head,"

Torn, Faolan shifted daintily from hoof to hoof, then looked up to Wyatt, her eyes questioning. What should they do? Should they take her back? She didn't want to take her back. Just what did this little mare want, anyway?

Wyatt still sat on the ground. Why hadn't father told them about her, even if she was simply adopted, that made her their sister in a way. They were adults. Did he not think they could handle it?
Her head hurt?! His was swirling! He felt Faolan looking at him, and he looked back. Well... what else could they do? He wasn't about to chase her off. "I suppose- that makes you our sister, sorta." He looked at Nalani and Faolan, making sure they understood. "Do you want to see our f- er- Brajan, again?" That would be it. Get father to explain this.

"That's a good idea," Nalani said cheerily. "I'm sure dad would be able to better explain things. Did you want to come with us, Cocoa?" If he really did adopt her as a daughter of sorts, then he would certainly be happy to see her. Plus it would be pretty nice having a new "sister" around. Perhaps this one wouldn't be as stuffy as Faolan was.
(So overly cheery and optimistic, lol. XD)
