She stood or rather floated on the surface fanning her large pearly purple wings clear yet translucent to the sun as it bounced light from them.
As the spray of the wave came at her the flutter practically jumped in the air moving her wings at an enourmous speed to keep balanced. Her eyes darted back to him slyly know who caused that little drama.
"Aww where's the fun in that?" she giggled slowly decending back into the water till she rested where her day had started talking to him, "Really now atleast cause a fuss before you run like a a little foal. Evaluate the situation. Then decide to flee or fight. Rawr".

"You certainly are a sprightly one, aren't you? And I know very well that that can't be just because you're a flutter, either, since Indawo is nowhere near that graceful." Laughing, Safi gave Shaylee a wicked grin, noding his head in proud acknowledgement of the fact that yes, he'd splashed her on purpose.
"Well, I'm not much of a fighter, unless words are involved. If you fight, you'll probably get bloody, and do you know how horribly blood red goes with my coloring?" He sighed in a dramatic fashion that could make one want to hit him upside the head, unless they realized that he was actually joking. "You look like you're tougher than I am, though, and since you're not whote or icy at all blood would lend more to your personal attractions anyway, I'd say!"

Silly as a foal the flutter known as Shaylee could bite the best of them. She stamped the water violently and grinned all the while doing it. She knew he had splashed her now that it was done and over with. Course a little puffball like her couldn't try something like that.
"See fighting makes ya fiesty like this grrr." she snorted with a grin. "Yeah okay wings are good for escaping but when you need to you act all tough and stuff."
She splashed around all the while grinning as she continued on.

"Take pity on me, oh fearsome Shaylee! I was young and naive, and didn't know what it was that I was doing!" Grinning in a manner remarkably similar to Shaylee, Safi pretended to cower in fear as the diminuative mare splashed; for all the world, he looked like he expected to get beaten to a pulp by the fierce flutter. "Though I have to wonder where it was that you picked up this amazing ferocity; you look like you could have been born with it, but I dunno..."
A true tease himself, it was easy for Safi to identify a fellow goofball. Consequently, he was eager to seize the chance to engage in what was tantamount to 'tease warfare'. "Or...did you have to take lessons in this noble art of ferocity?"

"Eh?" she paused looked dumb founded.
Her ears swiveled as she stood still as a firmly planed rock. "Learn ferocity? Oh heck no I was born with it. Yep and I can beat em down with one snort." she teased snorting with a flick of her long tail. Her chest once again puffed out inb the typical Shaylee fashion.
"Atleast you're talking with me" she paused with a tiny meek frown, "I think Azure abandoned me." she murmered with her eyes distant and sad.
Realizing she had almost lost her composure she snorted and tossed her head. "Now what the heck was that?! Go away bad feelings and thoughts. I'll kick yer butt!"

"That must be a heck of a snort, but from my experience the girls have always been better at such things than we fellows." Grinning, Safi resumed floating on the surface of the water, his legs tucked up under his body and making him look for all the world like a buoy with a head.
At Shaylee's mention of Azure, Safi's ears flickered slightly, though his expression never faltered. Obviously that was a sensitive issue, and judging from her reaction to it, it wasn't one she cared to bring up. While it was true that he had a good ear for personal problems, he had a pretty good idea that a Soquili he'd just met wouldn't feel like discussing her personal life with him. So...
"Well, that's one way to drive the blues away! I wish that my thoughts would listen to me that well. I wish I'd been born with that kind of ferocity!"

Shaylee giggled splashing around like a carefree foal. Her mane and tail flailing black and forth spraying water everywhere. Her eyes turned to him with a grin with a tilt of the head.
"Ah but you can practice and be brave." she whinnied with a silly expression. She was having so much fun but the subject of that one breaking her heart was gnawing like a canine on meat.
She scrunched her face and looked at him with a query in violet twinking orbs. "So can i like talk to you about something? I mean no one else listens to me half the time since I'm the featherbrained flutter. Or wait is that Zaribe that gets called that?" she blinked with a sneeze follwed by a well place snort.

"But practicing is so hard...I mean, you need to apply effort and all." Smiling, Safi used his wings to propel himself in a circle around Shaylee, cocking his head at her as she suddenly shifted gears. "And sure, you can talk to me about something. Or anything, or everything; I'm good with most things, except for nothing. But I've been told I'm a good one to talk to, and I like to, so...talk away."
He made a face at the use of the term 'featherbrained flutter', however. "And you're not featherbrained; as far as I can tell, you've got no feathers. Maybe a hairbrained flutter..."

She looked to the ground in her nieve ways frowning though she tried her darnest to smile thinking of being abandoned. Only a few second she brought her little head back up with her normal perky outlook on things. Like a feather floating upon the wind Shaylee just usually lived as she knew best. But when a complication arose that wasn't in her favor she strained herself to try and figure out why.
She began lightly wondering why she was so persistant in knowing why she was the reason.
"Well see there was this guy right? And I was like oh my handsome. And then he talks to me..." she chattered along with a smile once again painting her pretty features bright and cheery.
"And I found I liked him and all. I was so in love. And we went to the mountains and..." she stopped and hung her head looking tragically and distant. Mane and tail dragging toward the ground like limp lifeless plantlife.

His eyes on Shaylee's rather animated face, Safi listened intently, taking note of every facial tick and twitch and change as the mare spoke. Since he was the buddy to many mares, he's heard many sad stories and gotten to be very talented at reading expressions, a talent that he once more brought into play now.
"Hrm. So, you fell in love with a guy and he turned out to be less than you had thought, hrm? Sorry if I seem a little blunt, but trust me, it's always for the better to just get everything clarified to begin with." Nodding his head, the stallion frowned as almost all at once Shaylee seemed to wilt, like a water lily without sun. "Hey now, no wilting allowed yet; wilting around Safi is not permitted, Shaylee!"
Glancing around, he spotted a large strand of kelp tumbling along in the water; nimbly he fished it out and draped it over Shaylee's neck like a boa. "As long as this is on, depression must be fought! Because...kelp is a happy plant. But anyway, moving on..." Let's see, how to phrase this? "Did he just vanish, or was there someone else or something else involved? Or do you just not know?"

She giggled immediately as he hung the kelp over her shoulder feeling the wetness soak into her. Not a bad feeling really with a squish or two there.
When composed she shook her head at his answer. "After the baskets he vanished. Poof. See ya later. Bye. Not a word from him since." she snorted still frowning a tad.
The little flutter looked at him like an older brother now for she herself carried no siblings in her bloodline. "So what do I do? I mean really. Find a stallion worthy of my umm..." she paused snorting as Shaylee thought really hard on this. "Charm! Yeah my flutterish charm." she mused tossing her head letting violet curls bounce about in the air. Blinking at him she puffed herself up as always then paused, "Maybe I got what I deserved."
A quaint little tealnoted Shaylee in the water talking to a strange stallion. Padding over he heard her words quite clear shaking his head. "No you didn't deserve that. No one does. Stop degrading yourself Shaylee."

"Hrmph. Sounds rather like the typical male scoundrel, at least from this side of the story...and if it's true that he cut and ran after his fun, then I can't say you really lost much of any significance, Shaylee." Though both his tone and words were of a jesting bent, Safi's eyes were, for a rare occassion, serious. "Some males just have no business with females, in my opinion, but that's just it."
Finishing up his little serious bit, he suddenly flipped his wings shut and paddled out a bit deeper into the middle of the river. "But if it's any consolation, I think you're on the right track there at the end...almost." Frowning, he shook his head vigourously at her last words about getting what she deserved. "Darn, and you were doing so well for a second there! Listen to the duck, Shaylee."
Grinning, he nodded his head at the teal, then returned his attention to Shalyee. Continuing on in a conversational tone that bordered on lecturing, he began again. "Go with that flutterish charm thing. You're spunky, you're purple, you're cute, you've got all the goods, basically. So why let yourself get dragged down when you could find another stallion who would no doubt be much more attentive?" It made perfect sense; he should really write a book or something!

She fluttered her wings staying but a fraction in the water watching Safi then Everly basically hearing the same things come from both of them. A bit confusing though from the duo of them to the flutter's over active imagination. She frowned putting two and two together of reality and failed miserably doing so.
Flicking her tail she waded out after the large winged feeling a bit uneased on what to do. "Well finding someone is not easy to do ya know? Azure was love at first sight to me. The first flutter who listened to me, talked with me, loved...me." she sighed hanging her head. Was she really that gullible like the others said she was. Course not Shaylee was well .. Shaylee and that was that.
She puffed herself up to float on the water more and looked at the little teal fox yearning deperately to be there beside her but not wanting to douce his fur in deep water where he would have to dog paddle himself to where the two conversed.
"What you need shaylee is encourage ment. And what I see now is your friend trying to give it to you." he nodded touching the water with his paw then stepping back a little. He wasn't a lap dog nor was he planning to start now.

((My bad XD From your last post, when you said a teal, I thought it was a duck, not a familiar *chuckles sheepishly*))
Shaking his head, Safi glanced from Everly to Shaylee, blinking at bit at the same time. This was a whole new level of emotional upheavel in a relatively short amount of time, and he wasn't really sure how to react. In fact, that alone was a surprising thing. Still, he had made his bed, and he would definitly lie in it!
"Well, just because you fell head over heels in the first moments doesn't necessarily mean he was the one for you, you know? Emotion and hormones can be quite the meddling things, and they can make you think things other than what's right." Treading water with his front legs, Safi tilted his head at Shaylee, trying his hardest to sound postive and convince her that what he was saying made sense. "And who says you have to be with a flutter? Not that there's anything wrong with flutters, but maybe you should widen your scope."

Everly listened to the son of Celendria beaming at how different his temper was to his brother's own fiesty nature. Shaylee had other things in her prospect for even in her childish outlook she was gorgeous. But little things such as pride tended to destroy such happiness making it difficult to stay focused when another in your life had hurt you causing a negativity to begin in one's self conscience.
Shaylee's eyes widened hearing the term "And who says you have to be with a flutter? Not that there's anything wrong with flutters, but maybe you should widen your scope." She pondered for a moment and looked at her reflection.
"Widen my scope. You mean like Saissis and Nathaniel? She's a flutter and he's a winged. Oh and your mom and dad were different too. Hmm." Her curly tail lied gently upon the surface of the water still not submerged from heavyness. Her little mind was churning thinking of others that might like her. Indeed there was an entire world of Soquili out there that could possibly be right for her. But how in a great melting pot does one as small as her even attempt to head out there and do so. She closed her eyes and thought really hard.
((Hee hee.. Time to get my randosig back in play so all my Soquili can poke their heads in now and then))
