For a second, Antony was caught off guard by Abattie's words; was she actually joking with him? No, she was flirting with him, if anything, but after their earlier exchange, he honestly wasn't expecting it. Still, they HAD started over, right? And kudos to her for getting into the spirit!
Grinning, he nodded his head in acquiesence to her comment about emotions, but couldn't pass up on commenting on the rest. "Well, I suppose you have a point; I've never been interested in fillys, after all, even when I was a colt, so it might be better if you WERE more mare-like. Still, there's nothing wrong with acting like a young mare when you are a young mare, right? I personally think it's adorable."
And he did, actually; it was always a drag to encoutner the stiff and uptight sort of mare. Actually, it was a drag to encounter the stiff and uptight sort of stallion as well, but he'd met more mares with that character failing than stallions. And now, he was digressing again.
"Sounds like you've compared notes with my father; but unlike you, he's got wings and consequently can cover a LOT of ground when he wants to; not to mention he's faster than I am anyway, so if he's moving and I'm moving, he'll always be gaining ground. But since he doesn't know I'm looking for him, I can't say I'm surprised."
Her comment about Guilian being findable because of his kids was amusing, though; in a way, it was because he HAD kids that Guilian was so hard to find! "Oh, he cares about us, don't get that wrong. But now that we're all adults, there's no reason for him to hang around any one spot. He's a roamer by nature and, since he and my mother have never seen things the same way, he took off as soon as we were adults. My mother has different ideas, though, so I suppose you could say that Dad's on the run from her!" Funny thought, that, and one that made him grin.

Ooh, she could only laugh at his comment about fillies, before she heard the 'even when I was a colt' part, it sounded rather funny. Stallions normally didn't like the little females, since they were so annoying and most of them had ego. At least, in Abattie's mind-most fillies and colts thought better of themselves than normal mares and stallions do. So it was completely understandable for him to not like them. "I am young, yes...but what if I were old? Would you think less of me if I was an old brute, wanting to be young again?"
Indeed, Attie was getting into the spirit of this fun and flirty talk. Perhaps it was for the better, perhaps it would help her get past some of her communication issues. Help her to be more like those other mares-no! She'd never lower herself to be one of them prissy perfect females, it wasn't worth it. "Adorable...?" The small yellow mare finally questioned, glancing up and down at him. "Such odds words..."
She listened to him talk about his father again, and forgot most of the stuff that he previously mentioned. Ah, yes the winged ones. Always much faster in the air than non-winged ones were on the ground. A mystery..."But you have wings too, Antony. If he can cover ground quickly in the air, why can't you?" It could also be the fact that the son had no idea where he was, so Antony would always be one step behind Guilian. No matter how fast he was going, he'd never be able to catch up.
"Opps, sorry." Abattie began, looking stupid. Again, she had forgotten that his father was a wanderer and didn't exactly want to be around his kids. "Your poor Papa. So you're looking for him for the first time since growing up? Well, I do hope you find him...a son always needs to see his...mentor/father figure."

Ah, so now they were getting into the realm of the hypothetical, eh? He could handle that. "Depends on how you went about proving your youth, I guess; it has potential to be entertaining, pleasurable, amusing, or even scary, depending on the time and manner." Scary indeed. Not that he'd ever really MET any elderly mares, let alone elderly mares out to prove their youth...but he had a good imagination.
However, he didn't seem to be the best at communicating that, if her apparent misunderstanding of just about all of the rest of what he'd said had anything to do with it. Well, confusion too, he supposed.
Grinning, he spread his wings to their fullest extent. "These are kalona wings, Abattie. My father is a wind, and the winds are the fastest things on winds this half of the world. I don't have the wings to match that sort of speed, even going all-out." However, he definitely had more stamina; his wings might be heavier, but they were also more suited to remaining aloft for long periods of time. "Granted, I'm speedy enough to get by...but he's just faster."
It was hard to rememeber that she was a regular when just talking, but her lack of knowledge about such things was a clear reminder. How much did the different breeds know about each other, he wondered, other than that some had wings and some didn't?
Her last question caused him to give her a look of pure astonishment, though. Had he honestly given her the impression that Guilian was an absent father?
"Actually, I just saw him last week; we managed to catch up with a good friend of his, find out what's up in the world, etc. I just need to talk to him and he doesn't know, so he's likely not waiting for me. I also don't want to interupt him if he's...busy." That was likely the best way to put it. However, Tony wanted to set the record straight. "My father is a wanderer, but we're very close. He's very close to all three of us, actually, even my crazy hellion of a sister. It's my mum he doesn't enjoy spending time with, and that's only because she's got jealousy issues and would try to keep him exclusive, which he hates. That, and she can be violent from time to time. Can't say I blame him, exactly, but it DOES make him hard to track sometimes."
If he did say so himself!

((Sorry for the long wait...xD))
Abattie almost laughed, yet again she didn't want it to fully come out. Laughing wasn't exactly her thing, it felt like to her she was flirting. So she held it back. "Well, you won't have to worry about that image your probably seeing right now, Tony. The only mare stupid enough to act young would be my grandmother." The small mare wondered what went on in his head that had to deal with being childish and old at the same time. It would be pretty funny, actually. But a type of laugh at, not laugh with.
Yellow eyes watched as his wings unfolded and she nodded. "Oh, sorry my bad. I don't know what it's like to fly, I just assumed anyone with wing was fast..." There she went again, assuming things without knowing. Would he get mad? Oh, she prayed to the heavens not. "Even if you couldn't catch him, I bet the experience is amazing."
Last week? He had seen his father last week and he's already on the lookout for him again? Poor guy, what was needed so badly that he was freaking out over finding him? Ah, well perhaps to Antony last week was a lifetime. No, that wasn't right he said his family rarely saw eachother..right? "Oh, well that's good I'm sorry. At least your Papa and you have seen eachother lately." Attie listened to his words carefully, understanding a little bit better. Alright, s that made sense more then what she was thinking before. With a little nodd of her head, she wanted to continue but the questions rising in her mind would only pry into his personal life more and he probably wouldn't like answering them. Abattie just stood there for a moment, her tail flicked and then she said,
"What do you do for fun, Tony? When your not out searching for your Papa or Mama?"
