He sneered. "As opposed to not raising them at all, like your previous mate?"

A frown tugged on her mouth. "Touche."
She paced back and forth a bit. Though she would never admit it, either, she also tended to enjoy Balrog's company when he wasn't -directly- insluting her family.
"This.. wasn't was I was expecting."

"I'm surprised you hadn't discerned my thoughts sooner, Storm. You generally are quite witty." He teased good-naturedly.
"But think of how strong our children could be... they could be leaders... truly the stuff that the human legends sing of."

"I was surprised, I guess, because all we do is sit here and argue at each other."
Though she was avioding the direct question at the moment, the gears were obviously turning in her head.

"You do not need to decide this moment, Storm.... " He trailed while flexing his wings. "But... I do not see how the decision could be a bad one."

Storm pawed at the ground with her hoof. "I should think on it. To be fair, Couscous was at least more romantic."

Balrog rolled his eyes. "Well.... apparently he was all romance until you were pregnant, then he was scarce. Something tells me.... enjoyable arguments and seeing a mate from time to time is better than sweeping you off your feet and dropping you on your back."

She snorted lightly. "Maybe I want both?"
She flipped her mane and avoided his eye contact. "I think I'm going to head back up the mountain for now."

"Well... think on it. My offer stands. The new shoots will be pushing through soon.... would be a great time for young foals."
He trotted and spread his wings, catching an updraft.

He fanned out his wings to soak in the warmth of the mid-afternoon sun, lazily looking around for anyone or anything interesting.Sayuri_Nitta (( *cackles efilly* mrgreen )) Izusa had begun to travel farther afield once grown, and this day she was out walking in the fielded areas, wings folded tight against her back as she stepped on the damp grass. She wrinkled her nose at the occasional patches of churned up mud, looking across the field to see if anything else was stirring out here. A flash of blue caught her eye and she clipped towards it, slowing as she approached the daintily built, butterfly winged Soquili. She blew air through her nostrils, and flicked her tail.
'You bug or horse?' she asked, blunt as ever.Kamiki Azure snapped his attention to the ... being that addressed him. His attenna perked up in a puzzled manner. He opened up his mouth to retort, then upon seeing that the quite intimidating looking mare was, well, female, he swallowed his anger and tried to be witty instead. "I, my friend, are something better than the two parts combined." He flashed his shimmering wings and struck a pose, tossing his mane back and smiling. "What about you? I haven't seen a Soquili like yous before." Rein_Carnation Fluttering her thin gorgeous wings the flutter known as Shaylee landed in a silly fashion. For once she was tired of chasing and avoiding leaves as they spiraled within the air. With a little snort she pawed the ground then looked around her for something more fun to do. Avoiding Everly was best usually she pondered, "Its always don't do this, or don't do that sort of thing." Scrunching her nose she stuck her tongue out and began trotting around looking for anyone to talk to.((As I said I'm all for it really. The colors are devine. And well its a pure mating of the species really. So it means more flutters to populate Soquili land. I say go for it.)) Sayuri_Nitta (( Lucky that you can do that lol...I wish there were more Kalona's ><; )) Izusa grinned, flashing her pointed teeth; well he was fiesty for such a weeny stallion. As she was thinking this Yzma, her vulpine companion padded up and voiced her own opinion.
'Jeez, did this one not get enough food as a foal or what?'
Izusa's tail flicked in appreciation of the comment but she cast glances at the brilliantly hued Soquili and spoke again;
'And I've never seen one like you. I am Izusa, I am a Kalona.' she kicked at the soft ground, the mud squishing beneath her cloven hooves.(( edit: sure )) Kamiki "I got fed plenty, I'm just slight in stature. Gotta watch the figure, you know" It was true, the stallion was small in both height and girth compared to most ground Soquili, and certainly looked meager compared to the confident demon.
As if on que, out of the corner of his eye Azure saw a purple mare flutter to the ground near him. Wow, he must have some major karma kicking in. She was beautiful (though most mares were to him), but a flutter herlself, the first he has seen since coming to this meadow.
He grinned at the Kalona and her little pet. "Birds of a feather, so to speak. We're Flutters." He called over to the lavander lovely. "Hello there, gorgeous." He flashed his winning smile again, flicking his tail. Rein_Carnation Shaylee: Looked up and nearly fell over her own two front fore feet. Talking to her was the most drop dead gorgeous flutter she'd ever seen. (not to mention the only one she'd ever seen.) Tossing her little head she pranced on over without a care in the world oogling at this new vision.
"Hee hee.. whoah you're a handsome one." she giggled as she headed over to Izuza and Azure.
Once again she pranced in her normal way as her fluttering wings captured the ecsence of the sun sparking a ray of glitter and beauty all around. Looking up she noticed the Kalona and blinked. "What are you? Whoah you look really cool!" she giggled once again and winked at Azure. Sayuri_Nitta Izusa rolled her eyes skywards; did they put something in the water around here? Everytime it seemed that two of the opposite gender got together near her, they started talking mush. Now she had two of these 'Flutters' as the stallion had called himself flapping their wings and acting goofy. Yzma snickered, looking at Izusa's expression. She knew the mares current opinions on matters of the heart, and was grinning inside at her luck at wandering into another display like this.
'I'm a Kalona,' she said, addressing the female Flutter.
'And yes I am 'cool',' she spread her wings, the span impressive compared to theirs. Kamiki "Nice to meet both you ladies. My name,as inquiring minds want to know, is Azure." Okay, so his mother might not have been the most creative gal out there, but at least it was a pretty say. "Say, I heard there was a pretty sweet apple grove around the curve of the mountain and past the Riverbend? Either of you two mares care to join me?" Though he addressed them both, the Kalona intimidated him (though he wouldn't admit it), and the slender, shimmering curves of the female Flutter was already starting to drive his thoughts elsewhere. He nodded to the two of them, letting his gaze linger for a moment, then slowly started heading that way, hoping they might follow.
((Need to go guys >< THey are kicking me out of the lab. THere's a class coming in))

Its not that they didn't... like each other. But their personalities were too similar to click together. The two awkward friends trotted around the meadow, looking for new Soquili, preferably female, to familiarize themselves with. Narci perched himself near a tree and idly scratched his shoulder against the bark. Echo, his little rabbit friend, was just finally catching up to the two larger creatures that had the blessing of flight. She nibbled on some grass and stood near Narci's feet protectively. Well, looking abuot as protective as a bunny could. Azure fanned his wings in the sunlight, taking a few bites of grass to chew on, but mostly just looking around for company. Rein_Carnation The childish purple flutter Soquili named shaylee flitted down toward the ground. Her smaller hooves touching upon the half saturated turf beneath her. With a pout she flicked her tail back and forth looking for something to do. Her wings shimmered pearlized as the thin structures caught the sun, returning it back with full radiance. She was happy to have lost her familar once again, such a worry wort he was. Kamiki Azure took notice of a purple flutter off in the distance. Giving a snort of acomplishment, he whinnied back at Narci then took to the air again, soaring over to where, to his delight, he found Shaylee. "How lucky I am," he called to her, landing, "my day as just gotten so much brighter seeing you, my dear." Rein_Carnation The purple flutter stood munching on her favorite snack; sugar plums. Her cheeks filled deeply making her look like an over stuffed squirrel with fall storage. Upon hearing his deep voice she nearly swallowed the entire plum she was savoring. Eating as fast as she could she flicked her fluffy tail and looked at him sweetly. "Hey its you. Azure right?" she asked with bright wide eyes. A girl couldn't forget nor even try of a stallion that incredibly handsome. "Brighter? How so?" she giggled and watched him intently wondering what he was up to. Farland ( Dman, i give up *will stay up a littel later* If you dont want to RP you can just ignore this post Kamiki XD ) Catori swished her emerald and ruby tail, scarlet orbs scanning the sodden ground beneath her hooves. Soft white, marked only with the ocasonal stripe of red or green, and the candy mark on her kind legs, she looked rather... festive. She was small for a mare, and cantered lightly over the damp earth, a small smile on her face as she wondered around destractedly, overly bored.Kamiki ((heehee, would love to Farland :3 )) Azure flashed a dazzling smile - his white teeth stood out nicely against his pitch black fuir - and tossed his mane, knowing how his hair would catch the sunlight. She was very cute, Azure caught thinkinh to himself. He walked up close to her, standing just close enough that his shoulders brushed up against her. "Yes, Azure. Shaylee, yes?" He sniffed the air, getting a wiff of the sweet treat she was eating. THat kind of information might come in handy later.
"Brighter, of course, because I get to talk to you. I was getting quite lonely to tell you the truth." Kamiki Narci noticed a new Soquili enter the scene. And a mare - even better. He gently nudged Echo from her soldier-like stance at his feet, and headed over to her. She was a fairly pretty little thing. Not as pretty as himself, of course, but to be honest Narci didn't even know if such a thing was possible. She was a slender mare, which suited him just fine, since he was rather small of frame himself, being a Flutter. Though for a flutter he was rather decent size, especially compared to his compantion Azure.
"Hello there, m'lady," he said, approaching the mare. Rein_Carnation Shaylee couldn't help but oogle at him with a smile of a child. Naive as she was things tended to catch her attention more than others. And wow... he was a vision to her, his coat shimmering obsidian in the sunlight. She weaved her own wings with a delicate flutter as if being quite flirty the way she was acting. Tilting her head with batting eyelashes she wondered why he said that just now. "Lonely? Talk to me?" she repeated with a twinge of excitement. "I was so happy to talk to you last time... and that other Soquili... erm Kalona was there too." she nodded with a shiver feeling how close her was to her right now. Farland Catori starteled slightly, once again haveing not been paying attention, and swung her scarlet eyes up twords him, and was studden. At first she though she was seing a huge vivid bird. Her ears perched forward and she took an involintary step forward, driven by her curiosity, and tilted her head slightly to the side. " Oh, Hello! " she said, sweetly, after she realized he had been speaking to her.
Once again, caught staring, but she had been running into some of the most interesting soquili! First a unicorn, and now a startelingly bright flutter. ' Nice to meet you, my name is Catori ' she said, once again her sweet disposition shineing through, downding her curiosity as she incined her head slightly. Kamiki Azure kept his proximity to Shaylee. He remembered the Kalona well. While she was beautiful in a severe way, he was alltogether imtimidated by her. Not that he would ever admit that.
"Yes, I would love to talk to you. Alone. That Kalona mare didn't make for very nice conversation. Flutters like you and me... we're more affiable to the finer things in life than she. We can appreciate the subtle things. And recognize true beauty when we see it. Like I'm seeing right now," he said, looking pointedly at her. Kamiki Narci nodded at her, giving her a more thurough look-over as he got closer. He made sure he struck a pose and spread his wings when he caught her looking at him. Obviously, he should let her have a good look. "Nice to meet you, Catori," he said, walking around her, making her she got a good look at all of him. When he was sure she had, he folded his wings neatly at his his back. "I'm Narcissus. But you can call me Narci if you like." Rein_Carnation Shaylee reminised for a moment of how incredibly cool the Kalona's wings were. Stating the fact that Izusa had flaunted how hers were better than theirs. Something about the Kalona, though facinating as she was seemed downright creepy to the female flutter.
Her little heart beat so rapidly that it fluttered immensly off and on.
He complimented her yet again. Now she purred as if something was wound up inside of that tiny form. "She was a bit antisocial. Yeah you're right that flutters are different. Hmm so what is it you want to talk about?" she queried with a distinct blush as it hued upon her now raspberry cheeks. Tirranna She smiled, her face illumenated slightly as the cute look swept over her face, makeing her look rather serene. " Pleasure to meet you Narcissus, " she said, figureing it would only be polite to use a full name the first time adressing him. He realy was an impressive sight, though , with his large wings and vivid colors.
" I am pretty sure i have never seen you before... you are one that a soquili would most definatly... remember " she said, her eyes sweeping over him one last time, for she thought it would be quite impossible to forget such a sight. " You are a flutter, right? " she asked, though event o her own ears the question sounded silly. The two images in her mind just did not add up, the ditzy littel flutter she lived with, and this magestic blue and green stallion didnt look like they could possibly be of the same breed.( BTW, this is Farland >_>;; *forgot to open another page while updateing journal* ) Kamiki Azure smiled and rolled his neck in a horse-equivalent of a shrug. "I don't care what we talk abuot, I'm just happy to have the company." He noticed a bit of Sugarplum juice on her muzzle and he used the oppurtunity to wipe it off with his own. "What was m'lady munching on?"Meanwhile, Narci smiled to himself at Catori seemed taken by his appearance. Obviusly she had good tastes. "Yes, I am a flutter. You don't see many of us around these parts, do you? I've just recently come to this place. Looking for a change in scenary. Some new grasses to graze on and perhaps a few younglings eventually is the place is right."
Echo, a shiney little bunny, hopped over and nestled herself firmly between Narci's hooves. Rein_Carnation Shaylee couldn't help but smile as he took the curtousey to remove the last of the plum juice that had wandered. "Ohh hee that's a Sugarplum. They are my favorite thing in the whole world. That and doing something fun, like say diving from the falling leaves. Most times its just myself because the other mares don't have time to play. Well that..." she leaned in closer to him and whispered, "and they don't have wings as grand as ours either." She smiled and watched him curiously wondering still what he was contemplating. Tirranna Catori nodded " I have seen only one flutter before, and i live with her so she hardly counts. ' she said, thinking of the hyper sugarl-plum-fairy. " Plus, i dont realy live here, i live in the mountains, so i wouldnt be a propor one for the counting of the flutter population " she said, a grin on her face as she swished her tail, slow and rythmicaly, behind her.
She tilted her headhead slightly, looking at the littel familiar, a kind smile suddnely blooking on her snowy face " hello there littel one ' she said, thinking this familiar looking alot cuter then the grump fx that plodded after the littel purple soquili. Kamiki Azure chucked and made a mental note that she liked Sugarplums more than anything in the whole wide world. He would definately have to look into getting some for her.
"Indeed, I haven't seen many other Flutters around these parts. Not that it would matter, you would be the most pretty little thing I've ever seen, even if you didn't have your wings. Though, I must say they are an added delight.""You live with a flutter?" Offhandedly he wondered if it was the same flutter Azure so quickly went to flirt with earlier. "How facinating. But say, why doesn't she 'count'" he asked, knitting his brow.
Echo twitched her ears as the horse talked to her. She game a little humph- which no matter how annoyed she tried to look just came off looking cute. She sat up and puffed out her chest, trying to look at big as she could.
"Don't mind her, she's just a love-bitten little fluffball. She's been following me around since I was a fledgeling." He nudged her playfully with his hoof. "But I guess I've gotten a bit used to her presence." Tirranna Catori gave a queit chuckel and rose her eyes back up to the stallion " Well, i would have to say... because she is rather.. how shall i say... odd? but i gues in a sence we all are.. shes just hyper, adn still acts like she just came out of her basket... waltzing through the air like a wind-blown blossom... ' she said, affectonate amuzement filling her voice, like one who was talking about a particularly mischevious child.
" Shes rather cute though ' she said, her eyes flicking back to the littel rabbit " i myself dont have a familiar, but both my herd mates do ' she said with a smile ' A fox, and a littel wolf cub " though the rabbit did look adorable... like a teddy-bear who had been given a rather grumpy expression. Rein_Carnation The purple shimmering flutter was simply beaming by the comments she was bestowed by someone grand as beauty in itself. She flitted her long slender transparent wings still entranced by the web he was spinning. If only Everly was around she might think more clearly... wait a sec. Why was she thinking of that annoying grump fox at a time where she was feeling like a princess.
"You make me feel so special Azure. No one has ever told me how beautiful I am." she said with a bat of her lashes smiling indefinitely toward him. "I've never seen anyone that shines like you do. No other Soquili stallions that have talked to me have said such nice things. Thank you." she nodded with another blush. Kamiki Azure put on an expression of shock. "How could no one have every told you that? Your whole life, really? I find that hard to believe." It was the truth, as thich as he was laying it one. She was certainly a striking creature. "Well, if you let me, perhaps I can make up for lost time. I could talk about your beauty all day if you would let me."Narci grinned. "Oh, I see. Well, I personally prefer mares with a bit of elegance myself."
He nudged Echo. She snorted through her little bunny nose and hopped back towards his back hooves. "They're amusing to have around. Though had I had a choice I would have chosen a eagle or a wolf. One wouldn't think a bunny really suits me. At least she does't clash with my fur." Rein_Carnation Shaylee blinked at his words, reminded her so much of sugar in itself. Like a confectionary floating with sprinkles and added SugarPlums. Cheeks flashed more of a reddish crimson than they had been previously. Her eyes sparkled peering through her silvery amethyst forelock with such adoration that she could ever show.
"Seriously. Most of the time the other mares think I'm a ditz. a clumsy little scatterbrained sugar high fairy." she repeated with a sadness to her usually perky voice. "It makes me happy to have someone say such nice things. Even my familar Everly.. he has never told me. Feel free to say as much as you like. Hrm... and I'll dwell on how handsome you are. Such radiating light from your wings. Reminds me of the rainbow." Tirranna " More like " at least she isnt going to try to chew my wings off " ' She said, a twing of her fear for the lion familiars slipping into her voice. If she ever met one, she was sure she wouldnt be as scared, but currently, they terrorfied her. She bent her head low for a moment, nozed across the ground and clamped something in her death, defdly pulling it up and takeing a few steps twords the lazily trickeling stream a few paces off.
When she returned she helt a dripping early carrot, Catori haveing just dipped it in the stream to remove the first, and setteled it on the ground near his hooves, a small gift for the littel bunny. Catori was one who didnt like to see people grumpy, and she gave a faint hope that the littel bunny liked carrots like she had heard rabits do. Kamiki Azure was a bit surprised, but a releaved, when she took a more serious tone. It meant she was opening up to him. That was a good sign, definately. "Many do not understand exactly how us Flutters work. You see, why others see 'ditzy' we are just carefree. We're dancing through life, not letting the little things of life bring us down. So many Soquili let things worry them so. We know better. We know when to laugh, and when to take things seriously and when just to laugh and keep flying by. Its why we're so beautiful - we know what we want and we make no excuses for it." He gave a warm smile and nuzzled her gently behind her ear.Narci watched with interest as Catori procured a carrot for Echo. "Well isn't that nice," he said.
Echo looked a bit surprise, but after thuroughly sniffing the carrot over finally decided it was a nice gesture and took the veggie between her paws and began to eat. Tirranna Catori smiled sweetly " Better to be nice then rude.. unless they deserve it, but a cute littel rabit dose not deserve people being rude to her " she said smileing, her scarlet eyes shineing.( Craptasic post because i must leave, hopefully we can RP tomarrow? ) Rein_Carnation She listened to his voice, a soothing shiver that comforted her. He was right she thought silently... we are different. That in itself, a statement of pure truth became her cherished heartfelt feelings. A tear escaped her eye just then, a shining jewel that slid off her cheek toward the ground below. For once she was appreciated.
"Is it wrong to enjoy yourself on days where the leaves blow so free? To flit from place to place laughing full of mirth because you want to? You are right Azure. We are different. We are beauty in itself. Misunderstood we are always shuuned for who we are." she announced with a new brightness as she stood tall, puffing out her delicate chest. Her wings filtering the light of the sun, dancing around them like others of the flutter race. Kamiki ((I should head off, too, I have to go grocery shopping XD))
Azure nuzzled her face again at the sight of the tear. "Wrong? It would be a sin not to," he said, watching the trees sway in the distance. "All this beauty around us that often gets ignored by others. Everyone knows a flower is pretty, or a gemstone, or a feather. But we can also see the beauty in everything. The grass, the clouds, the wind, the rain... everything's pretty it its own way. And once you start to look at life that way, its just such a much happier way to live your life.
He spread his wings, and giving her a playful n**, launched himself up into the air, catching a updraft of wind. "Come fly with me?" he asked, flapping in the breeze. With a laughing whinny he turned around and headed off towards the mountains, beckoning her to follow."
(We shall continue later?)

Balrog's spirits (and ego) were flying high - even more so than normal for the ebony stallion. Catching an updraft he soared over the plateaus, surveying the stretch of land with ample grazing areas, clear cold rivers that cut gashes through the dirt, and most of all, protection from the mountain-climbing cats that preyed on young foals.
There was a smirk on his face that would not wipe away as he returned to Stormwild, tail carried high and a prance in his step. HE had finally done it - snared the most beautiful wind soquili that he had ever laid eyes on, who was a match for his banter, and would make a fine mother of his foals. Their offspring would be stunning, and make fine herd leaders themselves one day, Balrog was certain of it. And he had finally convinced the mare that they could stregthen their legendary bloodline.

Storm was resting under a tree, her girth very wide and heavy. It would be soon now, and she knew it. She looked tired, but happy, leaning against the tree for support. It hurt to stand, but her wide stomach made it even more uncomfortable for her to attempt to lay down.
Kamiki Awahi, a native shaman, sat cross-legged no too far off. She was diligently weaving some pale wicker baskets, the ones the Soquili tribe weaved specifically for the care of newborn foals.

Balrog's ears flattened suspiciously at the human, and he snorted his distrust, despite the fact that he was well aware of the "bond" between the Humans and the Soquili.... The falling of the Soquili was that because of their intelligence, they were born weaker than the normal magic-less horses and needed the shelter of the baskets. But Balrog would prefer to have nothing to do with the two-legs if he could help it. He had seen some Soquili 'domesticated' and letting the creatures upon their backs. Balrog was sensitive about his back - ever since the pumas had attacked his herdmates - leaping upon them and digging into their proud backs with their claws. But he would never breathe a word of that.
Ignoring the human, Balrog approached Stormwild, nuzzling at her swollen belly.
"You will bear us fine children, Stormy. Fine, strong foals that will touch the heavens with their wings."
