If he only knew what she was thinking of him. Sure he was quite aloof, he just didn't want untrusted others to know what he was thinking. He didn't know if he quite trusted her yet, though he wanted to. He would be...hurt, to an extent to have her think so lowly of him.
He continued walking though neither of those thoughts entered his mind since none of it had been brought up in conversation...
He had almost forgotten with the female's bouncy persona that she was still hurt besides her physical appearence, it didn't diminish her in any way in his opinnion so he just slowed his pace.
His ears flickered as he turned his head to look at her, "I hope that wasn't an excuse for me to look at your behind." he replied with a soft smirk making a slight joke out of all the unfortunes that seemed to be occuring.

Gasp!
Well she hadn't meant it like that but now that he mentioned it, it had been a rather loaded comment. If it had been possible for a horse to blush she would have, instead she had the decency to look just a little more embarrassed than she normally did. She had always been a perky mare, an optimist and as a result she very rarely paused to think before she spoke... It always ended up with her saying something rather unusual!
"Ah," She smiled in a rather coy fashion as she continued to walk, releasing a chuckle after a period of time in which she had taken to regain her composure, "Well you can if you like, but I thought you had already done that -" she pointed out, referring to the references she had made to herself prior to the impending doom that was sunset.
"Of course, it is a very nice rump so you couldn't be blamed for looking twice!"

That had totally gone the wrong, why would he want to look at her a** if he had no intention of doing anything with it? He snorted softly to himself and shook his head as they walked in the forrest thats shadows seemed to stray longer and longer.
"Beg pardon if I seemed to have mislead you ma cherie." he replied in a bitter sweet tone. He didn't really no why, its not that he couldn't look for she was obviously in plain sight just the part where he knew that he couldn't have her. The little possesive, jealous boy that he was. His cool blues drifted to the landscape, taking a hold not wanting to look at her for awhile for he might give the wrong impression.

The little jest had been enough to distract the mare from the fading light. However, as the jest faded and the stallion righted himself (ever the serious type) she soon found that she was more than just a little aware of the warped shadows and the rather daunting trees. Trees that had once looked inviting and merry had transformed themselves into twisted beasts, claws extended to try and grasp any unwary traveller.
...Ooooh, how she wanted to be cuddled up to her father right now. Safe and sound as she had been when she was nothing but a babe. He hadn't been over protective but he had been determined that his little princess was happy. She'd been so content at the time that she'd never really been afraid of the dark, but ever since she had started exploring alone she had noticed it more and more.
Shudder.
Why did the spirits have to make such an awful time of day?
"So you were not looking at it?" Attempting to distract herself from the terrible shadows she glanced towards him and feigned a somewhat pained expression. Not quite one of insult but enough of one to indicate that she was 'unimpressed'. Purely teasing of course, the mare was rarely unimpressed but all the same he had brought it on himself.
"Such a pity, I thought it was one of my finer features..."

"You're personality is one of your finer features," he retorted with the coldness that he had since a colt. His warmth from his eyes fading as he tried to explain looks weren't everything even though she obviously had them. "Though I am not saying you aren't pretty...I'm just saying both equal out in your case." he replied slower and in a bit softer tone.
He hadn't a clue what was going on her past, and her 'night' companions though he couldn't say for himself he hadn't female ones in the past but simply for that night. Amusing, he hadn't had one of those for quite sometime. It wouldn't be her, she was to sweet of a girl and he couldn't demean one of her stature in his mind to a lesser female he had spent a night with and soon forgotten. He walked along as the breeze grew cooler and the night darker.
His cool eyes, the only colored of his body seemed to grow vibrant within the moonlight that started to fade over the lands has his monotone coat grew just as dull if not more within the hour. He looked back to her, as his orbs were strained from looking for that damned pink rat thing. He could be sleeping right now, he could...

((Sorry, I keep getting abducted by WoW. I'm not ignoring you on MSN but I literally fly on there to yell at someone to get online for a raid before logging off again. >.< I'll be more attentive.))
Oh snap, there came that cold voice again. It wasn't so much a jeer as a rather solid statement. While most stallions would say it simply out of habit, the tone of voice in which he said it made her really believe it. Now this was a first, the no nonsense stallion was complimenting her in some peculiar way and she genuinely believed it... in a way, it made her feel more bubbly than usual inside!
Meh, unfortunately her reverie didn't last all that long though as it became more and more apparent that she would not be finding her otter companion tonight. She made a mental note to guilt trip him like there was no tomorrow when she saw him in the morning but for now...
Coming to a halt, the mare glanced down at the feathery fur around her hooves. The braides of her mane gently rubbing against her neck, she considered her options closely, debated them accordingly and then calmly allowed her gaze to shift towards Ares. Every piece of aid always came at a price but he had said he knew of a cave... Regardless of how horrible it smelled she could stay there for one night at least and besides, repayment would keep her distracted.
Right?
All she had to do was pretend that he cared and she would be fine, he would find himself satisfied and she wouldn't be afraid of the dark. She could just catch up on sleep in the morning.
"So...where is this cave, exactly?"

His cool eyes flickered to her with the tilt of his head, a slight emotion of innocence was displayed with the flash of a moment. He was content on looking for that furried fiend...friend of hers. He wasn't used to giving up and he let his disappointment show.
His own beads in his braids clicked together as he looked the sky and to where he was. "It is just East of here...it's not the most heavenly places." he reinstated. Someone like her didn't look like they'd step foot in it. But perhaps he could be proven wrong.
He looked to her eyes and she looked...happier? Or just more bouncy. He shook his head. He never could put up with someone this long, it amused him slightly but it made him feel like he was getting bound down even though it was his own damn will to stay. He wasn't going to leave a mare, in her condition out on her own at this time of night. Then again he wouldn't leave anyone behind unless they severly pissed him off. Then it was their own fault.
"Do you wish to go their?" he asked.

She nodded - there was nothing more for it she could do tonight. She didn't have night vision and unlike a certain someone, she didn't have a night light slotted into her chest either. It was at times like these that she became jealous of her rather dark and unusual friend. It had been through these injuries that she had connected with him - yes, he'd been the cause of them but at the same time he had begged for forgiveness and in those moments she had seem a much more vulnerable side to the 'beast'.
Really, he was an absolute p***y cat and she hoped one day someone would see that.
Alas, any other time of the day and she wouldn't have desired to look as he did. Don't get her wrong, she didn't see anything wrong with how he looked but he had a very distinct appearance and she preferred colour. He had a rather exotic look but she preferred her pink, hands down - it was an imperial colour and she was a princess, that was that! All she was jealous of was the fact he had that light at night to keep him safe from the shadows.
...Ah, how some would react if they knew that she was aware of and had forgiven the soquili that had attempted to destroy her...
Still, shaking the thoughts from her mind she kept her gaze fixed on the stallion who appeared to be mildly disappointed for some reason or another (he really was a puzzle) and released a soft sigh. She didn't like dirty places, they made her feel ill but she would sooner be somewhere safe than out where anything and anyone could pounce her.
"Well, I need a place to stay tonight and you did suggest it...?"

"Alright," he replied raising a brow, it was as if she were thinking something he was definantly not catching on to. He started to lead her back to where they had come from, they would have to back track a little but she was keeping a good pace so it shouldn't take that long. His cool eyes dropped lazily. Ares on the other hand, had fairly well night vision but in the darkest of places even he could be helpless. Despite his name he wasn't a god.
The breeze bit at him and his muscles tensed and it made him clamp his jowls. He would be glad when he could get out of this damned wind. He looked to you, "Are you doing okay?" he knew she was injured. That didn't mean she was completely helpless. He knew she was strong, maybe thats why he could deal with her so well.

"Ah, it is just a little wind," Sparkles offered a bemused smile as she continued to follow after the stallion. Her coat was suitably thick, thick enough to provide her with a little warmth and with the continuing flow of blood through her muscles she wasn't that cold. All in all, the male had absolutely nothing to worry about in terms of her comfort at this moment in time to say the least.
"I am perfectly alright, just a little tired," she reassured him, flicking her ears forward to remain alert. She may have been drowsy but even in the company of another she couldn't settle in the pitch black. It would be unwise and that creature could come back to haunt her! No no, she would stay very, very awake until she was out of sight.
There was no question about this.
"And achy," she mused almost as an after thought, the scratches along her neck beginning to itch once again.

"Tired and achy?" he said with a smile, noticing she added things as they went along. "If that is all we don't have much to worry about then that's the least of our worries, no?" He looked to her, "Could be colder...raining...predators or all of them put together, so I'd say it's a rather good night." he smirked. Perhaps he would've liked that night back in the day, though he still dwelled in the night he was getting used to the warmth of the day. His cool eyes grazed over her before looking directly ahead and through the brush he could see the entrance. "We're here..." he replied softly. "Stay here." he stated gruffly before trotting towards it's entrance and looking into its dark depths. He scented it, it had the faint smell of wolf but it had been long gone by now. He could see a few smaller creatures, but they were of no concern. He walked back out of the cave, "It's safe," he replied. He walked back in, knowing she would come. Though if she decided not to, power to her.

Ho, ho, ho!
She wasn't about to be left behind and she had already started forward as he walked into the cave once more. Being left alone even while he had checked it had scared her witless and so, with a small snort she trotted forward and into the cave. Admittedly, she wasn't particularly thrilled with the smell or just how dark it was but it was a little warmer and away from the most brutal bite of the wind.
"Well I have been tired and achy all day, it is unsurprising I would still be the same now," she pointed out, attempting to sound as logical as possible despite her faltering expression. Ah, here it was - he had protected her and led her to safety...she could try talking her way out of it but he may grow impatient and he might even leave her. Meh, her stomach began to churn at that thought more than at the prospect of bedding yet another stallion.
"Thank you, for everything..."

He blinked at her and with the slight shrug of his shoulders he replied in his tones, "And I." He went a bit deeper to get rid of the draft that came in and laid himself down so he could lean on the side of the cave. He could hear the dripping of moisture farther back and the musky scent of vermin and moss. "I'm sorry I couldn't have found you a more suitable place for your night." His cool blues looked to her as they were falling asleep but he wouldn't let himself until she was safe...he might be up for quite sometime though he was a light sleeper...who knew. His intentions were clearly not bedding her, as one could tell when he replied with a soft, "Your welcome."

((Argh! *Thwap* I can't find an opening you make things so difficult with Ares. xD))
Huh?
Well that was odd, the stallion had already flopped himself down in a drowsy heap and left Sparks thoroughly confused. Leant up against the wall, he seemed to sway just a little from weariness yet that odd sense of determination (or was it stubbornness?) kept him awake. He hadn't asked, hadn't even suggested it...he'd just flopped down in a manner that would often be the very same that Sparks would adopt right before she declared 'Nini' and drifted off to sleep.
...So, what did he want if he didn't want her?
Coiling her tail uneasily around her hind leg, she continued to stare at the stallion. It wasn't his fault but the poor mare felt obliged to repay him in some fashion and her mother (ah the warped parent...) had always said that no male ever said no to the company of a mare.
Argh! She was so confused.
It was then that her manners kicked in though and with a soft whicker she moved towards him at an easy gait...which gave her time to be struck with a brain wave. Well, 'company' came in a variety of forms did it not? Thus, without even a moments hesitation she lowered herself down and unceremoniously pressed her body to his in what could only be described as an equine cuddle.
Bonus - she got to steal body heat too!

((eep! Sorry! You have a helluva long post for nothing though. XD <33 wink ))
He watched as her throught process was revealed upon her face. She seemed very confused. He wasn't going to ask even if it was his buisness that look made him not want to know. He flicked his ebony braids from his face and as he opened his eyes the femme had walked over to him and made him her comfy spot. He blinked, he was about to ask what in the hell she was doing but he didn't care as much as he should have. If he wasn't sleeping, as in doing the dirty he wasn't this close to anyone when he slept. Not even his family. So yes, he was confused as well but he was getting used to the thought and over his petty differences.
Plus like she was thinking of him, she was warm. He flicked his tail and it curled around her like a thick braded blanket.
He was cautious now, he felt that he had to protect her as long as she was in his care. His ears flickered at the scurrying of another creature. Water rat? His eyes narrowed into the depths of the cave to see the thing inspecting them. It called closer and as it was close enough Ares reached over Spark's body with his wings and looked at it as it sniffed him a low rumble emerged from his throat. Nothing like any soquili should have made, hey getting raised by a unikalona meant you learned how to make scary sounds. It was one of the perks. The noise was like a wolf-like growl, though he was aiming for feral you got what you got. Those beady eyes just backed off and ran to where it had came. He snorted softly as he removed his wing and tucked it back into place.
"You're weird." he replied softly as she was close enough he didn't have to talk loudly. He had a smirk on his face as he said it. It was quite intentional since we was making dog noises to scare off rats and had spent more than one time in this sheltar.
