Username: Divena Number of Soquili owned: Just one Usdia Who will take care of this basket: BlossomFetish Entry: Blossom circled the basket, bristling with curiosity and thoughtfulness. "It'll be a little boy!" she decided, because boys were so much fun, and the basket was clearly housing a mischievous little soul. "He'll be blue, like his mommy and daddy, with red threads in his mane and tail, like his mommy! He'll have a fiery temper and a fierce mind. Lots of curiosity in this little basket. I'll bet he'll make his mommy and daddy very proud! But most of all, he's gonna be fun!"

Username: ~Spazzy_the_Wolfie~ Number of Soquili owned: 1~ 1 solely owned Soquili, along with two co-owned. :3 Who will take care of this basket: Soleil will, since he already has a little experience. <3 As a foal, he found little Samebito and rescued him, resulting in a sort of father-figure/friend relationship between the two. Fetish Entry:
"It'll be a little filly with the same eye color as it's mother, I think?" The young stallion declared with a look of thought over his face as he gazed down at the basket before him, dark silver brows knitted in thought. Exhaling a short breath through his nostrils, he turned his eyes up to look at the wicker basket's awaiting parents, the two watching him curiously, eager to hear what his thoughts were.. Though, along with that, there was also the ever-present caution from the mother and father that could certainly be felt in the air. Giving a blink and a slight shake of his head, Soleil returned his attention to the task at hand: determining what this little basket would come out looking like!
"Mmm.. Her hooves will be the same dark black as her parents... But her mane will be similar to her father's, short in length, the same color and everything. But! But, at the tips, the light purple will continue on to Mother Aiane's red." Sol' raised his muzzle for a moment, flashing a polite smile at the waiting mother before looking back down. He eyed what he hadn't assessed yet: the main 'body' of the basket. "Huh." He muttered out, inspecting the multi-colored basket and letting out a huff.
"I think she's going to have the same pelt color as your own, along with that marking wrapping around that belly and back of yours.. Same color and everythin'!" Sol' started to say, motioning to Daddy Livius before continuing on, "But I can see her with no other marking besides the one. Oh! I think, like her mother, she'll have gradient fetlocks, light blue at the bottom, then her mother's dark blue, then into her father's main coloring." Giving a nod of his head, the stallion smiled at the parents before nudging the little one gently with a front hoof. The basket suddenly jerked, bumping closer towards the near hoof. Tilting his head to the side, blue eyes pinned on the basket, he gave a small grin. "And she'll be quite the affectionate little filly."

Username: Necrona Number of Soquili owned: Two - Seamus and Paeva Who will take care of this basket: Seamus (and it'll be an adventure, whoo boy) Fetish Entry: There was something about the spring that made Seamus's thoughts turn towards life. Something about the buds on the trees or the tender stalks of new grass or the eggs hiding in thistly nests. He loved spring. Well, he loved all of the seasons (not too fond of winter, but it had its charms also), but spring always put him in a mood.
He supposed it was this mood that had led him here, in front of a cute couple nearly bursting with pride over the three baskets at their feet. He couldn't help but smile at them--they seemed so happy. Then, of course, he remembered why he was there. A jolt of nerves shot through him. Did he really think he could take care of a foal? Sure, it was something he'd been considering for a while, but still...
He looked down to the basket nestled before him in the grass. He snuffled at it, and the basket shifted slightly. He knew he wasn't the first (or second, or third...) Soquili to apply for this position, so he figured the little foal inside had to be mighty tired from all of the attention it'd gotten so far.
"Hey critter," he said fondly. Just knowing the newborn Soquili inside could hear him made his heart grow warm. "You're gonna be one pretty filly, aren't ya? I promise I won't be here too long, and you can rest."
There was something about baskets that made Seamus excited. It was the promise of something thrilling, the hints of future beauty. He could get lost in dreaming up possibilities. Oh, he loved it. He flopped down next to the basket and nosed it gently.
"You're gonna be a pretty girl, I'll bet," he said confidentially. "A gorgeous dusky color, like after the sun's been down for a bit and the air turns liquid blue. And your eyes...oh, you'll knock 'em dead with sky-colored eyes like yours. Your daddy's gonna have to beat the suitors off with a stick, I just know it." He grinned, looking over the basket. "And that bit of red? Oh, I just can't put a hoof on it. Will your mane and tail be tipped like your momma's, or will it show up on your coat? I can't make up my mind--it's gonna add this special splash of color either way. A nice dark mane, and some good strong hooves. Oh, little baby, you're gonna be wonderful. I'm so excited to see you."
He was lost, thinking to this shadowy mare far in the future. In fact, it took him a minute to remember where he was and who he was talking to. Immediately he clambered back to his hooves, a blush burning under his dark coat. He addressed the parents sheepishly, "Er, uh, sorry about that. Got a little carried away, I guess. You're gonna have a great daughter--or son!" He coughed a bit. Definitely got carried away. "Or son, of course. I, er, hope you'll forgive me for being so informal." He bowed his head, taking a few steps backwards.
"Good luck, baby," he whispered to the basket before beating a retreat.

Username: Khryssie Number of Soquili owned: 4- all shown in my sig. <3 Who will take care of this basket: My girl Djamila. She's got a bit of "empty nest" going on, so she'd love a basket/foal to take care of. <33 Fetish Entry: With a mixture of excitement and eagerness, Djamila looked at the basket. It sat on the ground in front of her, like her own three had. It didn't move much, nor did it visibly show any signs of life. Except for the occasional, sporadic wiggle. Djamila had raised three baskets from birth to strong sons worthy of a mother's pride. She remembered her three sons fondly; at their youngest, they were precious. As they grew, they had become slightly difficult to keep in line. But now, as adults, they were handsome and Djamila could burst with the pride she felt for them. But they were gone, off to start their own lives. The mare lowered her head to gently nuzzle the basket, sending it warm thoughts of love, happiness, and acceptance. Djamila was lonely, living on her own, especially after such a long time with her boys' loud, loving company. But now she had this wonderful basket to care for, to lavish with love and attention! Djamila secretly hoped it was a little girl. When the basket's parents came to visit, Djamila planned to tell them all about the activity and progress. Progress was a term used lightly, though. There wasn't much a basket could really... do. But she was eager to share with them her thoughts on it! "She's been doing well!" Djamila exclaimed with a wide grin. "Oh, yes, silly me. I think it will be a sweet little filly, but we'll see, right? Don't ask me how I know its a girl! I just do," she declared with an amused snort and light toss of her long mane, the beads by her ear clicking with a happy sound. Djamila inspected Livius and Aiane careful, then made a sound low in her throat like confirmation. "Right, right," she mumbled and reached down to nuzzle the edge of the basket tenderly. "You'll look like both your Mom and Dad, definitely. You'll have his coloring, that saturated gray-blue. Mmmmhm. You legs will fade from that color, to purple, to almost-black. Also like your Dad!" Djamila shot Livius a proud look, unable to express her gratitude and happiness with words. "But from your Mom, you'll take those gorgeous markings. A bit of red, I think. Definitely red. See the markings, by her eye?" Djamila asked the growing foal inside, not even expecting a response. "You'll have those, and you'll be beautiful- just like her. Your hair will be long and lustrous, a deep and dark purple-black mixture, a lot like Dad's." Djamila paused, as if considering how to put her next, and final, though as to the filly's appearance. Djamila turned her gaze to Aiane, meeting the mare's icy blue eyes. So bright, so expressive. "Your eyes will be just the right shade to match your mother's. You'll share her beauty, and you'll be just perfect," the surrogate-mother mare finished as her voice dropped off to near a whisper. She nuzzled the basket tenderly, conveying her love. "Just perfect."

Fetish Entry: Candy believes that the little one will have nice charcoal coloured hooves. The hair she believes will take after the mother more, a lighter colour which looks like the ends were kissed in a beautiful shade of red. The eyes, blue. The body of the young one she believes will take more after the father, a grayed blue with the accenting purple.

Username: dawns_aura Number of Soquili owned:not counting co-owns (I have one, the flutter Laures), just one. Who will take care of this basket: My little healer girl. After being adopted herself and raised by a brother she adored, she would feel like it was her duty- and a joy- to be able to be mama, or rather sister in this case as she's still fairly young herself, to a young one. Lady Liliah- http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj205/santianne/gaia/LadyLiliah-1.png
Fetish Entry:
Liliah loved the spring. It was a time of life, and joy. But it was also a bit bittersweet for her. She had been an early spring foal, and it brought back her first memories. Memories of slowly lifting the lid of her basket and slowly taking in the sight of the world around her. There had been a soft, gentle voice encourging her, and as she slowly turned her head she caught sight of the brilliant golden stallion who had found her basket, who cooed to her when she was frightened, and who kept her warm at night. Her brother.
Tears welled in her eyes and she quickly blinked them away. Because of what she had done, she may have been alone, but at least all those she cared about, particularly her brother, were safe.
She was walking slowly across the meadow when she saw it. A small multi-toned blue basket. making her way over to it, she looked around to see if it was all alone, or if there were parents nearby. Her heart beat faster. This basket could have been orphaned, rather like herself, or it could have been abandoned, or simply left on it's own for a very short time. Deciding better to be safe than sorry, she would assume that the little one was merely left alone for a short time. But she knew that it was still dangerous to leave baskets by themselves, so she approached with caution and carefully folded her legs beneath her and stayed next to the basket.
Not knowing how long the basket would be alone, or even if the parents would be coming back, she started to talk to the little one.
"I bet you're going to be just a lovely little one. Who will you take after I wonder? Do you look more like momma or da?"
Her musings were cut short as she heard approaching hoofbeats. She stood carefully and turned to face the direction from which the sound was coming. It was a very pretty blue mare and a banded stallion that was obviously her mate. And there was no doubt that they were the parents of the basket she had been next to. From the color of the mare's eyes, which matched the jewel on the basket, to the stallions bands they were familiar in that the basket was a lovely blend of them both.
"I'm sorry if it was a bit presumptuous, but seeing such a little basket all by itself, I couldn't help but stop to keep it company." Liliah shifted on her hooves, slightly uncomfortable. It was her good deed, and it was right, but she felt like she had intruded in the dynamics of a family that wasn't her responsibility. Dang her nature and her upbringing for making her interfere. They spoke not a word, and she just had to say something, anything to break the silence which weighed so heavily on her.
"The basket is so lovely, I can't imagine the foal will be any less." She noted a flicker of interest in the stallions eyes, and felt confident enough to continue with her observations. " She'll be a lovely blend of both of you. She'll have her momma's bright blue eyes, and her her dark mane will be red tipped. She'll have da's bands." Her eyes flickered back to the basket she'd sat with for a time, and she left the realm of obvious observations onto what she felt from the basket. "The little princess will be softspoken and kind. She will be a bright ray of sunshine in the lives of those she meets. She will be someone you can be very proud of."
Feeling like she'd revealed too much of herself, and feeling very out of place, it was time for her to go. "Again, I apologise for my presumption."
She turned around, took a deep breath and prepared to walk away- though there was a very small part of her that hoped they wouldn't let her just walk away.

Username: Tickled Pinkly Smooth Number of Soquili owned: 1 usida. 3 Angeni mare. 1 Regular mare. 1 Regular Stallion. 2 of the Angeni mare are co-owned. Who will take care of this basket: Arella  Fetish Entry: "Sweet little darling, I can feel it in my heart you are a girl, a beautiful little girl. If so I will suggest you are called Ashoka, it means 'no sorrow' and I will make sure you live up to that name, no harm will come to you under the watch of my eyes my sweet heart. If you were to be a handsome young male, the name would not change and the vow will be the same. Ashoka. Your eyes will be as blue as heaven itself. So blue that before it was only possible to dream of. They will complement your raven hair, lovely long flowing hair that will be as black as the purest midnight, a starless sky. Your skin will be blue, deep blue like precious sapphires. You shall steal the heart of who ever you please, my darling you already have mine. Yours to hold forever. I shall teach you how to sing, I promise you will have a voice which will make sirens envy your song. We shall recite poems together in the presence of the stars, your talent shall make angels cry tears of joy, landing on earth as diamonds and the lightest rain. Which I shall protect you from with gentle wings. Just ask me to fly to the heavens and bring you a star and I shall, however it will be just another rock in comparison to your smile. Rest for now my precious, sleep for now. For when you are ready to bloom from the bud that cages you, the world will welcome the most beautiful rose that ever graced the lands. For you are my angel."
The mare recited her worlds like poetry. Her eyes sparking with delight, nuzzling the lid with her snow white nuzzle. Arella was a mare who had nothing, her parents were killed when she was still in her basket, she was kidnapped and raised in the mountains by what people considered a monster, someone who she thought was her prince charming. However when the knew the truth she fled into lands that she knew nothing of. Her heart was crushed, a huge void opening up. It felt like her sorrow was going to kill her. However now she was nanny to a beautiful child. The void was getting a little slower every day. Oh the angels had blessed her. She was so happy. She would make sure, this precious child, would never shed a tear. Not as long as she could help it.

Username: magnadearel Number of Soquili owned: 0 Who will take care of this basket: I suppose it will have to be me. Fetish Entry: Carefully examine the basket and you will note dear parents that the little filly shall have hair like her mother's. She will sport her father's grey coat inter-spaced with stripes. What do the stripes look like you ask? Well they shall be half purple like the father's and half dark blue like the mother's body. Sparkling blue eyes reminds one of the blue summer sky just after rains have passed and everything has been refreshed. Across her rump is a white marking much like her mother's below her eye. And finally around one front hoof is wrapping such that her father has.
She loves stories, can't you tell? Watch how the basket wiggles when you tell it stories. *Wiggle Wiggle* Besides listening to stories her favorite past time is playing and exploring. She much prefers to have company to play with, siblings or otherwise.

Amani snorts softly as he settles beside the basket. "She'll roam all ova' the countryside as I shall teach 'er about life and the world around us. "She will have black hooves and socks with a deep purple body, so close to me own family line that others will think we is actually related. Me younger brotha' has a purpleish body afterall." He chuckled softly at the thought of his 'lady-killer' sibling. "But she will have a silver/grey mane, a lighter shade than her fatha'." He nods proudly. "She will be a most beautiful mare when she grows up, very wise and very confidant." Amani nudged the basket very gently with his muzzle before standing up again. "Take care lil'un, I hope I shall be seeing ye very soon." He says before trotting off.

Username: dracoXK Number of Soquili owned: 5 Who will take care of this basket: Mewtwo! Fetish Entry:“ Proud… that’s what she will be.” Mewtwo spoke to the basket as well as the parents, “ female. I can see the blue piercing eyes that will make others quiver under her stare. Dark mane with red woven through will fall long and keep her eyes, a weapon of her own, covered. Her tail will be held up, like her head, with pride. With ever step of her dark hooves she will walk with kindness and power. The purple streaks on her dark body will hide the powerful muscles that lie under there. When bullies pick on her they will not know what hit them. Her face will look like yours, Livius, light coat with a smile that will charm people.” Mewtwo studied the basket again, “ Yes proud. I can see her now. Always holding her head up high and trying to take care of those who cannot. She will be kind to all unless provoked. Fights might fallow her as she campaigns to help others. Mostly this will not bother her, not till she is older and ready to settle down. Even when she is mated and has foals of her own she will take everyone under her wing, every young that she finds she will take care of until she can find their parents, or until they can take care of themselves. She will be a leader and I can help her with that. But I feel that her and I will have some differences as her pride will hinder her letting me help her to much. It will happen, and she will grow into an independent mare, full of pride in herself and her family.”

Who will take care of this basket: The girl in my sig; Dimitri Fetish Entry: Dimitri had never been a mother before but she was willing to give it a try when she became the one in charge of the lovely blue basket. Her family was pretty nervous about it but she made sure they knew she could do it just fine and without a stallion's help. She honestly couldn't tell the parents anything about it without seeing it for real... so she decided to just sort of wing it-ya know.
"I think it's going to be the prettiest little baby ever! With little hooves and a little nose..." She said enthusiastically. "And-and-um... adorable and sweet and smell like hay and thistles.. and talk softly... and... smile so nicely... and Um... UUUUUH." She paused and tapped her hind leg. "UUM... stuff like that I imagine-ya know! Can't really tell anything about a baby I can't see, ya know... but it'll be cute... oh yeah." She looked down at it. "Oh yeah it'll be cute."

Username: iGotGreen Number of Soquili owned: 1 Angeni Mare Who will take care of this basket: Nokomis Fetish Entry: Wander, wander, wander. Something the large angeni had become fond of doing lately. She loved venturing far and wide to see new territories and enjoying different sights. Water, forests, mountains and so on. It was on this faithful day that she had come across a new area, it was beautiful! The flowers in this clearing were lavished with pinks and purples of a early spring. The beauty of it all bewildered the mare to a stuttered landing, her wings like a sunset folded to her sides and relaxed.
In the center of this clearing was a basket, the basket was equally as beautiful as the surrounding area it sat in. It was at this point that Noko had really noticed the grass, it was the softest her hooves had ever felt, the greenest she'd ever seen. She bent slowly, eye's glued to the basket as she took a light nibble at the fine greenery. Her ears swiveled a moment as she heard a couple of others nearby. "The parents?" She mumbled lightly, the basket wiggled lightly and gave her the answer as to why it was all alone here.
She lifted her head and smiled sweetly. "Oh such beauty, I imagine you'd be a boy..." She said lightly, her voice slow and sure. "I bet your body will be a pale purple, complimenting these flowers here perfectly!" She began to ignore the other Soquili nearby and focused on the basket, it had wiggled a little more, she stared at it more intently with each wiggle. Curiosity burned in her mind, she began wondering more and more then closed her eye's.
You will have that purple pelt, smooth as each piece of grass and purple as the flowers. Eye's, bright like the jewel on this basket, twinkling with the ambition of growing up and learning. The red would be a special pair of stripes on each fore leg and on the tip of his tail. The darker purples would be the tips of his mane and tail, while the darker blue at the base made up the larger portion of the mane and tail.
Her imagination was driven wild by the simple, but wonderfully eye catching colors of the basket, she just couldn't help it and she dare not stop. Happy as a clam she became lost in these thoughts and produced an image into her mind. "Simply wonderful, beautiful. So absolutely true and exciting." She had met a foal and pictured this one would be the same, a chipper, young male seeking help and loving every minute of it, a large grin on his face.
"Oh how it'd be wonderful so such a thing again..." She said wishfully.

She cooed softly to the basket. She gazed down at the little basket snug in her arms. "You my little friend are a Boy. You simply must be. Such a strong and sturdy boy you will be. Already so heavy just in your little basket." A bright and shining grin beamed from her mouth. "You'll have a beautiful main like that of your mother you know. Oh and Tail too. It'll have the red highlights and a blue silver color to it's bulk. Though I believe your main will resemble your fathers medium length main Then your coat will be more like that of your fathers. A beautiful mix between the two. Ah Such a handsome young lad you shall see. Bustling with loads of energy and full of spirit, a wild one I think. You'll stand out and be your own personality. A genuine one in a million, however you won't feel out of place. Love and compassion you receive so young will make you even stronger."

Username: JadedTiger22 Number of Soquili owned: 3 Who will take care of this basket: Carthage - Definitely not the fatherly type, but he's changed since love (Sita) wormed her way into his heart. Instead of looking for innocent soquili to draw down into the lake's depths, he's wanting to prove himself as a good being to Sita. Fetish Entry: Carthage would not doubt have heard about this situation from either Barca (his turtle) or Sita (his love interest) and seeing how Barca could stand no other soquili, it was probaby the latter of the two. He would greet the two parents with a lower head and refuse to meet their gaze. He'd be polite, ask why they cared to offer their child to a complete stranger, and try to avoid the subject of his past. The basket would be of great interest to him, seeing how it looks like the murky depths he prefers over the land his beloved has to dwell on. The basket's slight red threads would bring back memories of excitement (the kill!) and yet remind him that he would need to forget about such things if he wanted Sita around. So when asked what he though the young one would look like, he pondered awhile before flipping his bangs from his eyes. "She'll look like you, her father. Dark mane, light head with darker shoulders and frame. Her underbelly will be light as her head. Her eyes however, will gleam the brightest blue like her mother's. Those bloody lockes are likely to appear as well. She will be a meager beauty, and this is what will keep her safe in times such as these."

Username: CheshireKttty Number of Soquili owned: One co-own and one seathi Who will take care of this basket: Arden - possibly with some additional help from Nokomis Fetish Entry: The Ceryeni, Arden, was at one with nature, both in appearance with his green and brown hues that blended into the carpet of the lush forest, and in personality. He trotted gracefully across the lush spring grass, and allowed the cool breeze to play in his mane. Arden was so much in his little world, that he barely noticed the figures not far from him. The stallion was about to pass them by when he spotted it. A BASKU!!! Quite eagerly, the Ceryeni broke into a lope and then skidded to a stop in front of the basket and the two Soquili standing guard over it. Arden felt great joy at the sight of such a beautiful basket. He had always lived alone in the great forests and had been one with nature. The stallion saw baskets as pure beings, untainted by society. They were a blank canvas, the purest form of nature, and so adorable! The Ceryeni had lived by himself for quite a long while, but had always enjoyed the company of foals. He found them to be so full of life and willing to learn. Oh how he wished to have one! He would teach it his ways, to be one with nature, to respect it, and to know its secrets. What would this one look like? He could start to see an image of the soon to be foal growing in his mind. As the image became clearer and clearer, he began to tell the two that were watching the basket. Why not share his own thoughts? At first, the image in his mind was hazy, simply a thought that could float away if he tried too hard, then it became much more solid. Was that a filly he saw? Yes indeed. It appeared to be a gray filly, much the same shade as her sire. Arden waited a few moments, allowing the figure to come even more into focus. Oh! He exclaimed. The filly had her mother's beautiful eyes and hair. Beautiful blue with red hued tips that flowed in the wind. Her eyes were slightly darker, the color of the lakes that he lived near. At last the filly was completely visible now and he could see all of her beautiful markings. She seemed to have dark blue, almost black, stripes on her legs, the color of blueberry and blackberry juices mixing together . She also carried some of her fathers purple stripes too, one over her face and running down her nose, and the other across her back. After having collected all of this information, the stallion relayed it to the parents. Watching with eager anticipation as they listened to every word that he said. Once he had finished, the forest hued stallion began to sing to the basket. He sang him indian songs of old that he knew and the songs of the forest. He only hoped that the two that stood watch over the basket would not chase him off.
