EchoLimaFoxtrot Nagual listened intently. She really looked up to Yei as if the mare was truly her mentor. "Well, then... if I am not to young, then I guess I just haven't found the right one," the mare grinned. Never really understanding the male race, Nagual felt that she wasn't prepared and that more experience and years would give her that which to succeed in such causes.
"Whisper? I don't think I've had the opportunity to meet him. Nonetheless, you're secret is safe with me. He will not hear anything from this mare, nope! He sounds like a fine catch, was it thoughts of him that brought out you this way? I know you live in the mountains, but I wasn't expecting to see you today."
"I don't suppose you've met him yet because he's so shy but..." She smiled devillishly and gave the young mare a nod, "I'll have to coax him on to theClearing so you can meet him and then I can help you find Mr. Right too!"

Usually every path was different for Nagual. The only time she rewalked one knowingly was to find berries again. And then, there was usually always a reward at the end: berries! "I can undestand change... I think. Usually a path isn't ever the same for me. But I like it that way, always a new thing to encounter."
"No, I haven't met him... if anyone can coax him out, it would be you!" The mare laughed, think Yei could probably get almost anything she wanted. "Me and Mr. Right? Do you think he comes in a tanned package with berries on top?"

"I'm not sure...but if we find the right one I can always ask him to carry a tanned package with berries on top?" She offered teasingly, her eyes twinkling as she had the opportunity to socialise with one mare that she felt to be a kindred spirit - incredibly pretty but not winged or horned to the point that Yei felled outshone or any less worthy of their company...this was the type of socialising she preferred!
"Or maybe we can somehow dress him up like a tanned package and make him carry a branch of berries..." She mused, running through allthe potential ideas in her mind regardless of how odd they might be - in fact, she expected that if any male heard them, he would run for the hills!
"Surely you've met some males that have caught your fancy!" heart

Nagual-An grinned very happily, in fact. "Would you do that? Do you think he would do that?" Of course, it was all like a fairy tale to the mare. It was fine to talk about future mates, a 'prince charming'... a whole new story actually getting one.
"No..." her mane flopped as she shook her head. "I haven't met any males in that sense, I guess. There are a few that I like being around, but nothing too serious, I'd say." Nagual went a little quiet, thinking if a stallion really would come wrapped in tanned hide with berries on top. Could there be anything else better in this world?

"I would carry a tanned package with cherries if you really wanted." Yei jested, flashing an equine smile as she moved around to fix her gaze on the mare with much more ease than she had been while in her previous stance - "And you're just like me, I only ever really had male friends at your age as I found they were more fun." She gave a shrug and turned her gaze towards the desert after a little while.
"I'm sure the male you love will do anything to get a small smile from you Nagual, anything to make you happy and to brighten up your day but I suggest you tell any interested suitor that carrying a tanned packet with cherries is a requirement that should be pratciced at least once a week!" She announced dutifully before giving a giggle and shaking her head slightly, in all honesty it was really quite amusing to picture that.

Nagual stared at Yei, her eyes wide in amazement. "Would you really? Have a package of berries waiting for me whenever I can see you again?" The mare tossed her head happily. "You would never be able to be rid of me!" Now that she thought of it... Yei had the color of a nice, juicy berry....
"Maybe," Nagual shook out her mane in the breeze. "I won't hold my breath over it... if it happens, it happens?" She didn't really know what to say. The arena of males was still new to her in that sense; the mare only said what Yei might have wanted to hear. Nagual didn't really know what "it" was.

"Of course I would, all I'd have to do was borrow Achak's odd package and place the berries in it, he does it all the time with other plants and the like so I could use it for berries too!" She pointed out dutifully before puffing up her chest and giving a little wave of her mane - her proud stance didn't last long however as she relaxed and allowed her ear to droop once more.
"And I could even persuade a number of males to carry tanned packages, in fact I know of a few who would do it just to show you that they appreciate that a mare has good taste." She continued, flicking her tail to shoo away the flies as she turned her gaze out towards the desert and gave a small smile.
"Besides, I always enjoyed a challenge."

Nagual paused, taking in Yei's words. She wasn't sure if the mare would really do all that... would she? For her? She hoped so, it sounded like a very fun idea!
The mare looked up for a moment when a breeze caught them. "It's a chill night, don't you think?" she looked at the bright mare. A shiver went down Nagual's back, bringing forboding feelings.... but when it passed she hardly remembered it ever happened.

Cold? Yei paused briefly and despite her autumn coat, she too gave a shiver and released a small snort of disapproval at her own discomfort. It was true, it was a chill night and she was rather surprised due to how close to the desert they were, usually it retains at leat some heat this close to the mountainside...then again, they were reasonably high up on the slope she supposed.
"Rather cold." She agreed after a short while and flicked her ears towards briefly as if to persuade her composure to return to her - it was only after a few moments that she heard the obscure howl of a beast and then the shriek of a two-legger which was carried across the slope by a similar breeze as they had experienced before.
"Did you hear that?" She enquired uncertainly as she turned her head towards the village, "Or was it just me?"

Nagual-an's ears flickered, and she bodily turned around toward the village. Her ears perked forward. It was a little strange, as the sounds had bounced through the mountains. "I heard it..." she said quietly and started walking that way.
The mare was lucky there was moonlight and stars to follow, for surely she would have broken a leg on these rough mountain trails. Nagual followed Yei, who knew the area better.
------
It had taken them the rest of the night to come to the village. Nagual's nose wrinkled before they arrived. "Yei... do you smell that?" She couldn't place it... coyote, horse, two-legger.... "Blood?" Her eyes widened and she looked to Yei worriedly.

[ Continued from a PRP in the PRP Subforum. ] Shimshek glanced around as she led Taiyaung up the faded mountain pass. She was starting to feel the chillier air as they got higher and higher and shivered slightly. She flicked her eyes, her cheeks slightly pink, though not from the cold (though she hoped Taiyaung would assume so). When he had suddenly given her a nuzzle of comfort, her heart had warmed considerably.
It was an act she was not often used to, let alone had felt... she had, after all, been abandon just after she'd been born, and had survived by eating snow (she still wasn't sure how that had been possible, but she had) and soon learning how to find and eat green grasses hidden under the vast white blanket.
"Taiyaung, look around. We're almost where I used to live before I came down the mountains," she explained as she shifted her wings. She was used to the cold, but sometimes even she couldn't stand the chilly air, and had created a temporary cavern home hidden in the mountain side from predators as well as any other company she could--well, should --have made friends with.
Her personality came from her chatting with many stuck up birds of the freezing tundra, and often it was her only defense. She had been raised by the snow birds until she had decided to move on and live by herself. She glanced around the familiar area, glowering at it slightly. So many bitter memories...

Tai shivered in the brisk mountain wind, cheeks tinted pink (supposedly) from the cold. He glanced quickly at Shim ahead of him, his heart thumping. In that one brief moment of contact, Tai had felt painful memories locked away melt. He didn't understand how, or why, but in that one fabric of time, he had been at peace.
Tai nodded at Shimshek, wondering what it meant for her to come her childhood home. He knew that if he visited the desert oasis that he was born in, he would only feel anger and pain. Could his newfound friend be the same way?

As she trudged up the steep pathway, she did so through habit rather than thought. Her mind was more occupied on what Taiyaung’s nuzzle had meant. In that brief moment of comfort, in the short time lapse, she could feel all her fears, her nightmares, evaporate into thin air. She didn’t understand this sudden emotion, this sudden want to keep Taiyaung with her always.
She shook her head mentally as she continued to lead the way. Soon, she spotted her old home, warm, roomy, and safe from the outside world. She stopped and turned so that she was looking at the unicorn. “You’re not too cold, are you? My old home is up ahead… and if you get hungry, we’re in luck since I just finished storing food enough to last a few days between us.”
Considering she had just recently visited her home, she had taken the time to store enough food in the case of an emergency; she had said a bit of a white lie; she had enough food to last for at least three seasons… but if Taiyaung was only visiting, it was better if she said that there was enough food for just a few days… of visiting.

Tai, too occupied in his thoughts to answer Shim appropriately, merely nodded in acknowledgment. "..Why did I feel so right? For one second, only the bright light of the promising future gleamed in my heart..." He whispered under his breath, not realizing that Shimshek was able to hear him.
At the sight of the warm and roomy cave, Tai was shocked back to reality. "What a quaint little space," He smiled, "If all of the mountain is as nice as your cave, I may as well move up here," he joked.
Of course, Tai hadn't realized how unwelcoming and brutal mountain life could be. He didn't think about possibly falling off a cliff to meet a certain death, being crushed by a rock slide, or simply starving or freezing to death. He had no idea that he might've been mocking his newfound friend, and of all the hardships she had endured.

Her ears twitched at Taiyaung's words, a light blush staining her cheeks before she shook them off, her face returning to normal color. She didn't mention she had good hearing--one had to have good hearing in order to live in a dead, cold, forlorn place like these mountains--and just trudged forward, nearly jumping in surprise at Taiyaung's words.
She flinched at his words, in a way, glad he was joking. "Yes... quite quaint, isn't it? How long will you be staying?" And no, Taiyaung, the mountain isn't as nice as my cavern home here, she added silently. She didn't feel, strangely, too offended at what he said--he was ignorant, after all, it wasn't his fault--so she just allowed him to explore his new "home" for the next few days while she glanced outside, making sure no predators approached.
