Once his lungs were clear, Wyatt craned his neck to look up at the forms around him. His vision was clearing quickly, as were his ears, and the voices of the two bigger things were becoming recognizable from when he'd been trapped in that egg. He bleated once, then murmered softly as he became enveloped in licks while the one closer to his size was poking at him. He turned to look at that one, and poked curiously back at her with his own nose.

Nalani whinnied again, being tickled by the poked back. She scrunched her face briefly at the odd sensation, but then let out a pleased whuffle as she poked him again. Perhaps this one would be willing to play after they finished licking him.
The navy mare lifted her head away to allow Brajan to finish the cleaning while making her way back over to their eldest. "You know dear, learning how to walk would be easier than crawling along on your belly like that," she said with a small chuckle, nudging the filly gently. This one was certain to be a stubborn one.

Brajan lifted his head, nuzzling the little colt gently as he finished. "Natsu, what shall we call him?"
Faolan looked up at her mother, blinking drowsily. Her attempts at forward propulsion ceased immediately as she pressed her nose to her mother's... then immediately tried to meld with her muzzle.

Wyatt squirmed a bit as his sister poked at him again. He wrestled to get his feet beneath him, but was still too weak. He chuffed slightly and contented himself with poking a hoof at the female.
Then he got distracted by his father's nuzzles. Something about them was so... comforting. He squeaked when Brajan stopped, using his other hoof to reach for the adult for more attention.

Brajan's eyebrows raised as a something hard and small tapped his leg. He glanced down. "That's you, is it?" He shifted, lowering himself gingerly as he took to nuzzling and licking over the youngest of the foals.

"Didn't we decide on 'Wyatt' for that egg?" Natsuhi asked in surprise. A while back they had had a small discussion on what to name each child should they be a boy or a girl. Not to mention she had already addressed the colt as such. Oops. Oh well. In the mean time, she wasn't quite sure what to make of her daughter's attempts to smash her face into her own. "Faolan, what are you doing?" she asked in amusement, continuing to nuzzle the young filly.
Nalani glanced back and forth between the two adults and her siblings, unsure really of where to go. Deciding that she was still a bit hungry, the filly slowly got back onto her feet and walked over to her mother to continue her earlier meal.

Wyatt squeaked happily when the adult started nuzzling him again. With that encouraging boost, he tried to stand up again, wobbling around on his skinny legs, eyes wide in curiosity as he tried to stay up.

Brajan lifted his head, muzzle beneath Wyatt's belly in case he fell. "Ah, I suppose we did." He smiled slightly with a soft measure of pride as he watched their son - their only son - up on all fours. Already. The colt would be strong. Little else that he could ask for, now that he knew their daughters were healthy. Mostly. His eyes flicked to the fillies.
Faolan paused as she was offered more nose, then nibbled the available skin affectionately.

(Awesome. whee Onward we go then!) ~Time passes~ Nalani romped around happily through the grass, enjoying the bright and sunny day. Life was pretty good, all things considering. The filly had a brother and sister to play with, loving parents, and plenty of food to go around. What could possibly put a damper on things? Giggling to herself for no reason in particular, the happy filly pounced her way back over to where her siblings were. "Faolan, Wyatt, do you want to play?"Natsuhi couldn't help but give a small smile as she watched over the children. They all had such unique personalities from one another, truly. Although because of this, they could also be tough to deal with from time to time. Still, the mare didn't have any complaints or regrets about their sudden parenthood.

Faolan rested in the grass near her mother. Glowing eyes settled on Nalani, then closed, a broad yawn wracking the little filly's frame. Smacking her lips, she glanced at her brother, then lifted an ear, glancing at their mother consideringly. Coming to a decision, she simply rested her head on her forelegs and closed her eyes once more. "Can't. Beauty sleep."
A number of yards away, Brajan held his head high, picking out any sign of threat. Nothing so far. His ears flicked. Maybe he really was just being paranoid. Then again, the paranoid tended to live longer. And he had four perfect reasons to worry nesting across the field.

Wyatt was sniffing at a fuzzy bug on the leaf he had been about to eat. Would the bug be tasty? Would it make the leaf taste bad? Could it make his tummy hurt because it was so fuzzy? What if it tried to climb back out after he ate it?!
He had just about decided to eat it with the leaf when Nalani caught his attention.
He heard Faolan and had to work to resist the brotherly urge to tell her that her efforts were pointless, she had no beauty to sleep for. It would all be in play, but he knew she would be mad at him for saying it, then mom would scold him, and it would all be a mess.
"Play what?" He asked Nalani, giving the caterpillar a final glance before turning away from it. Maybe he'd get it later. His sister wanted him right now.
