Welcome to Gaia! ::

Gaven made his way down the edge of the river, an ideal place to go if he wanted to make new friends. Everyone had to get a drink sometime right? But what about food? His belly growled lightly as he realized how long it had actually been since he had last eaten. He paused and took a deep breath. He could smell berries.

With a flick of his tail Gaven trotted away from the river towards the warm and welcoming scent of food. With not more than a 2 minutes trot he had found himself a large blackberry bush. Without hesitation he stuck his head right on in and began to pick the juiciest berries with his lips. He was a noisy eater as he rustled through the bush. As far as he knew, he was alone, and thus didnt care if he was sloppy with his eating.

Gaven froze then jerked his head out of the bush at the startling greeting. "Uh... Hi?" Gaven returned before licking his lips clean of the berry juices. "Sorry about that, I didn't know that anyone was around." Gaven said sheepishly. "My name is Gaven. I'm new here."

Gavens ears laid flat against his skull as Mapiya mentioned the berries. He looked back at the bush and frowned. Why had he been so greedy when he was eating? He turned back to the bush and stuck his head back in it. He rustled through it for a moment looking for something. After a moment he found what he was looking for deep in the brambles and pulled his head out. With a vine of some rather large and juicy looking berries held in him mouth he made his way over to the mare and offered the berries. "I didn't know you had been waiting for these. I kinda ate a bunch of the big ones, but these big ones and the other ones are left. You can have them all if you would like." He felt bad and hoped that there would be more than enough left to satisfy her hunger for them.
