Tiffany followed the little thing through the snow, making a face of great displeasure. It wasn't hard going. She had survived for a few months with the foals just fine on her own. But it kept getting worst and worst, and she wondered when they would ever come out. Great. She had just figured out she was pregnant about 5 minutes ago, and she was already becoming impatient again.
The mare tried her best to think back to that day with Kor. How long ago was it? A few full moons. Maybe more. She couldn't figure it out. Tiffany never really kept track of passing time. She wished she did, however, so she could at least know how soon she was due. Then again, birth was not anything she was looking forward too.
"It better be" she mumbled, looking up ahead. There seemed to be a clearing of some sort. Thank god. She felt like she was going to pass out from hunger. Thats how it was. The sudden cravings came on so fast. She looked down at Flower.
"Errm. Apples. No. Oats. No. Carrots" she went quiet for a second "All three. Together. And maybe some red berries. Or blue berries...or..." she thought of all the delicious foods she could eat.
Yum.

Flower looked over her shoulder to the mare and beamed before picking up her pace as she saw the red and white tee-pee. "Come fast or as slow as you want...I think my two-legger's home." She added looking to the smoke curling from the top of the tee-pee. She took off at a gallop and stuck her head inside the flap, bumping the first food bin she came in contact with and whinnied.
The small woman climbed out of her hammock and stretched with a yawn. "Hungry? I'm sure you worked up your appetite. Did you go to the meadow?" She asked.
Flower made a small throat sound and looked back towards the teepee's entrance.
Ayashe set some carrots, one of her favourite foods, down on the ground for her and smiled softly. "There you go...enjoy." She said.
Flower wanted to eat them straight away but looked toward the tee-pee entrance and whinnied. When her two-legger didn't seem to understand she grabbed a bit of the blanket the young woman had draped about her shoulders and pulled a bit, before entering the tee-pee, going around her and pushing her out with her head.
Ayashe looked to to see the very pregnant snow white mare. She smiled and clicked her tongue softly as she held a hand out, elbow slightly bent, and edged closer to her. "I won't hurt you." She said softly. She didn't think this mare was wild due to her ellaborate mane style but one never knew what a horse would do around someone new.

Tiffany trudged after Flower, and let the little thing run ahead of her into the teepee. It looked nice enough. No better or worst then her own two-legger's. But she had never been too impressed by the two leggers, with their funny flashing selves and hopelessly bad lack of hair. Still, they were good for a meal or two. And fixing her hair. Which was very hard to do on her own.
She came to the teepee just as the two legger stuck her head out. Tiffany brought her's up as high as she could, and strutted forward to her, sniffing her hand. There wasn't any food it it. That's stupid. What was she trying to do, sacrifice her hand to the pregnant mare? Tiffany snorted. She didn't eat meat.
The mare nudged Flower's two-legger out of the way, poking her head into the teepee and looking down at Flower. Where was the food? She looked up again in to the back. Ah. There. She eyes the oats lustily, and then the apples.
"What are you waiting for? Serve me!" she hissed at Flower, and the backed out of the Teepee. She felt big and awkward, and didn't fancy being inside Teepees. She felt like if she walked too much in any direction she might knick it over, and probably would.

"Of course, straight away." Flower said before heading into the tee-pee and looking around. She found a bag of oats as large as she was. No matter right? She grabbed the burlap and began to pull at the bag. It hardly budged. She gave another firm tug. "Just a tic." She called to the mare. It just wasn't coming! She gave a slightly frustrated whinny.
Ayashe walked into the tee-pee. "What are you doing Flower?" She asked.
The mare looked toward the tee-pee entrance and started to try and pull the bag again.
"Aaaaaaaaaah." The young woman said in understanding. She set down her blanket and began to fill it with copious amounts of everything they had, took up the corners and slug in over her shoulder. She went outside and laid the blanket down, spreading it out. "Hungry Mamma?" She asked with a soft smile before slowly backing away.
Flower came out moments later with three carrots of her own. she set them down and began to eat. "S'that going to be all right Tiff?" The mare asked after clearing her mouth. Perhaps things wouldn't be so strained between them. But then again, Flower had to really ponder if she truly cared. No, she was just doing right by the mare's unborn foals...right? She honestly didn't know at the moment.

Tiffany looked at the food lustily, and helped herself. It was very, very good. The mare didn't often eat with her own two legger. They didn't get along like Lilly and her's seem too. But her own two legger was simply unreasonable. Tiffany had only kicked her twice, and now she won't even let her come in the teepee during the rain.
She looked at the two legger for a moment, and then went back to her eating. How privileged she was to get to see such a beautifully pure mare like herself. Certainly the two legger craved some class after being with Flower all day.
"I'm glad I ran into you ra.... Flower" said Tiffany, finishing up her meal. "You got me food. Perhaps you aren't so horrid. Maybe I could clear out a path for you in the woods so you don't drown in the snow?" she said, smiling "I mean, it's not your fault your so freaky looking and short" added the mare.
Which was nice, in an odd, Tiffany sort of way.

Well the mare was certainly trying her best! She even called her by her name, even though she started to say 'rat' so, that was something. The fact that she gave an effort helped the mare deal with it. Well the rest of her words were rather hard to swallow but, that was about as nice as Tiffany got right? Well it was certainly better than when they were coming to blows and screaming at each other. Silver lining, as always.
"Thank you Tiffany, I'd really appreciate that." She said with a soft smile, trying to put her best hoof forward again. "If you ever need anything that your two-legger won't give you, you know where to find us now." She added. "We always keep extra food and blankets around just in case." The mare ate the last bite of her carrot and mentally patted herself on the back.
It was a very trying encounter but perhaps she had some spiritual growth because of it? If anything she learned the art of patience. The other mare also seemed to be rather content where she wasn't before. Kindness, compassion, and charity, she needed all of those fruits today.
