Welcome to Gaia! ::

Porsche was trying to keep herself comfortable in the shade, but sadly there was no hiding from the summer sun. She seriously didn't understand how her father could always survive while being so dark in the heat, and she moaned slightly as dapple of sunlight hit her leg. In a few hours the sun would have moved, and the tree's shade would leave her comfort. Until then though, she was stay huddled under that tree, and just observe the heat wave that was going on around her. Everything looked so sticky, and she seriously hated that!

Much to her surprise though, she heard the sound of laughter, and within moments a filly was running around in the distance. She had to admit, it was fun to watch the little gal run back and forth and chase the exciting create she found. Porsche found herself laughing a bit, until hearing a familiar voice call after. When she spotted the blue stallion, she then realized that it was Mel, and what a surprise that was! Who was he chasing after? Porsche was starting to get excited at the thought of it all! "Hey Mel! Over here!"

"Hehe yes yes I know, come rest in the heat." The mare then moved her wings so that she could fan Mel a bit. Flutter wings were very convenient for that sort of thing, so she was happy to help her friend while she could. Once she noticed he was getting comfortable and less-warm, she was going to finally ask him many questions. But her flow was interrupted when she noticed the adorable filly rush in front of her. "Well hello!" she then said.

There were many ways she could ask the question, but instead she decided to keep it casual. "Now who is this, Mel?" she then said, while bringing her soft eyes on the filly's. "My name is Porsche, what is your name little one? And yes I am friends with your father.. I'm sure he has lots of friends." It made her feel young again, and the little filly was too adorable to handle! She looked like Mel, but had some interesting colors on her.

Ah, so Mel now had children? Time sure flied by day by day, and sometimes Porsche couldn't believe how easily things could change. "Wow how many children do you have, Mel?" she looked back at Kahili, and smiled widely. "Yeah, my name is kinda silly. And my mother looks like a butterfly, that's why I look like her! And my father is as dark as night, so that's why I look like him." she paused then, glanced at the filly's markings. "Just like you, there are specifics on you that make you look just like your dad! See what I mean?"

Porsche then brought her attention back to Mel, and she shook her head playfully. "Now now, you must fill me in! Who is the mother of these children? Family life.. that sounds so exciting and cute!" And to think, her friend was already a dad! "Has it been hard taking care of children? Heh, that is quite a task you are taking on, but it looks like you've done a great job so far." His daughter looked happy and healthy, and she was proud of him just for that.

"Well, she's not actually a butterfly, but very close!" with a giggle, Porsche only smiled at the cute filly, before bringing her attention back on Mel. "Well, so far I can already tell how friendly your daughter is, so I am sure your other daughter is as well! Its good that she has a lot of energy, it keeps things exciting you know?" With a heavy nod, the mare then flipped her hair out of her eyes, before straightening herself out again.

"Aw, well it is nice that you met someone you could have children with! Do you two think you will have any more?" She could imagine Mel with some sons, and that thought was totally adorable. She then looked at Kahili and grinned playfully. "What would you think about having brothers? I have four brothers myself!" She was lucky enough to have one sister! "But I am only playing, you all seem like an adorable family! I am happy for you Mel."

Porsche only blinked at Mel's response to her words, since she didn't understand that sort of aspect of family-making. "Unexpected? Oh.. I've never heard that before. Either way I am sorry." she bowed her head graciously, before bringing her eyes on Mel again. "Either way, it is nice that they still turned out to be joys, Kahili seems very very happy just in her youth. I'm sure they will both grow up with the same feelings too." He had two fine daughters off on their own, and that was cute to imagine too. "So where do you plan to take Kahili from here? Are you two just off exploring, and having father-daughter time as well?" She remembered wen she did that with her own dad, and she loved father daughter time! Although she was misunderstanding Mel's situation with the mare, she found Kahili's relationship with her father to be very natural and well-mannered.

Porsche also stared off, since she imagined the situation was tough alright. "Yeah but no one really gets parental training until it happens, so there is no need to worry yourself. You clearly are doing a great job, so you should be proud of yourself." He had to take things day by day and one step at a time, even if it wasn't as organized as he had planned! "Ah, having company like that would be great! I'm sure she feels the same way too. And when she does grow up, I think you will be ready as a parent. It may be hard at first, but its amazing to watch your own children grow up like that." Ah well, she had observed her own mother's reaction, and she knew it was an amazing feeling. "Yeah but being a lone wanderer is your thing you know! Now you have two girls too look for while your wandering." she giggled lightly, knowing that chance encounters happened all the time.

At his question about her siblings, she could only smile widely. "They are doing great, thanks! Surprisingly they are all grown up already as well, so I guess time seriously flies. I had fun babysitting when they were little though, and now that we are all the same size, I am just off on my own again." Ah well, she had had fun when they were little, and now everyone was off on their own she supposed. "Anywhere is home really! I just depends what you make of it. I'm sure things will work out for you, just stay positive and see what happens with time, right?" she nodded her head lightly before moving herself into the shade some more. "I feel awful, your little one is running around in this heat. Hopefully she will be ok!"
