Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sammy moved to follow after the other two looking to the side bashfully before mumbling almost too quietly to hear about something like one or maybe two scarlings as she followed the two mares.

Siddie didn't catch what Sammy had said, but she glanced back curiously when Calder asked, flicking an ear in Sammy's direction.

Calder jumped straight into the water, but Siddie was more cautious. She found a shallow spot and picked her way carefully in, letting the water flow around her legs. "This feels nice," she admitted, and waded in slowly until the water rose to her knees. There she folded her legs, kneeling down awkwardly and dipping her belly in the water.

Siddie was getting a little more comfortable. At least, she thought, if she had to stay like this, she could apparently get used to it. She didn't want to, but she could. She leaned her head down to sip from the stream. The cool water tasted good.

There was a a sort of pop as air rushed back into the space that a horse body had occupied a moment ago. Then there was a splash and a garbled shriek as Siddie flailed back up to her feet - two feet, humanoid again and entirely naked.

There was another shriek as Siddie realized that she was naked, and she sat down in the water again hastily, crossing her arms over her chest. Not that anyone could see any details, considering that her whole body was inky shadow black, and not that anyone was looking who would care, considering that Sammy had already seen everything and Calder wasn't into ghouls, but it was the principle of the thing.

Then it sank in that she wasn't a horse anymore. "Sammy!" she exclaimed. "I'm back to normal!"

Sammy remained on her rock waiting quietly, she was in no mood for swimming for a while she waited watching the two mares quietly. She looked up for a while enjoying the sky waiting until her idle thoughts where cut by a sudden pop and a squeaking splash.

Looking down she found not two mares, but Siddie and a white horse splashing about, and Siddie as she left a ruined outfit was naked in the water. On one hand Sammy couldn't help but grin. Shadow boobies! Then she noticed Calder staring.

"Seaweeeeeed!" His nickname was a low whine as Sammy scrambled to the waters edge grabing a clump of dirt to toss at the Kelpie. "Stop staring at my ghoulfriend when she's naked Jack Dammit that's for my eyes only you Creeper Kelpie!" She was laughing a bit as she said it, mostly relieved the Reins effects could ware off. "C'mon Sid, you can use my jacket, we'll get you back to your dorm or mine and we can find you something to wear alright?"

Calder was hit with a wad of dirt and fell back into the water. It took a moment for him to bob back up, wiping his face. "I just wanted to see what she looked like." He pouted. "I've only seen other girl kelpies before." He glanced back at Siddie, but then looked away since it made Sammy uncomfortable.

At Siddie's assurance that she might play again, he beamed. "Id love to race with you. Oh, and you too, Sammy! You should try them!" He was all for Sammy's new power which, in a way, was like a present to him. "Can you use it on Barth?!"

"What's the difference? Kelpies have the same bits don't they? They just don't look like living shadows. You've seen Siddie's arm you've seen what she looks like you don't need to see what the rest looks like!" She pouted just a bit wrapping the jacket around Siddie tugging her in close protective arms around her ghoulfriend kissing her on the top of the head.

"Well racing might be fine and I don't know if I would use them on myself yet, I don't even know if it would work since I own them and stuff. I read these artifacts link to the person who found them."

Again she looked down at Siddie raising an eyebrow, "Is this why you don't let me use your laptop Siddie...?" Wandering fingers slipped between her jackets folds tickling Siddie's sides grinning. "AS FOR PILLOWS.... Maybe. When I feel like it. Most likely when he's being no fun and I want to make him fun."

"H-hey!" Siddie squeaked and squirmed, blushing a deep purple at what Sammy was implying. "I share my games with you," she pouted.

She gave Calder a puzzled look, then a more understanding one. "I don't know what demon bits are like either," she said. "I've only got monster bits myself." She elbowed Sammy lightly. "And a passing familiarity with zombie bits," she teased.

She smiled at Calder again. "Then I'll have to come play horses with you again." She understood isolation and homesickness, and she was starting to feel like maybe she could be friends with Calder. This would be a good way to know him a little better.
