"Jet it is then?" Ceres asked as she reached out to touch the pony's muzzle- it meeting her in the middle. "I think it is a very good name... Very fast." She chuckled.
Natalia shook her head- almost fiercely. She wasn't going to cry- to let things get the better of her. Finally her body relaxed but she still seemed to be refusing to look at Keeta. "Giving in means defeat," she finally said, and simply enough.
Natalia held out her hand just as a breeze picked up. Lir came to touch her finger tips. He tossed his head and rolled his head about until her fingers touched his mane.
"Natalia," Ceres said softly enough yet still firm. She didn't want to disturb the toddler in her lap, but she knew she really couldn't let this go on. She had only just caught the last bits of the conversation.
"Someday you'll understand... Until then all I can do is tell you how sorry I am," for ten she sounded and was acting older. It was just another wave of what was inside of her. She tangled her fingers in Lir's mane. Their eyes almost expressing the same thing... A wild, untamed hunger for the world around them... A world where they didn't want to be controlled- Freedom.
