 Night had fallen over an hour ago and the moon was up, still it hadn't reached it's apex in the night sky. A silver slice in the sky the moon sent her beams, however diminished they were, when compared to when she was a large silver orb in the sky, down upon the world.
The light breeched the canopy of trees in some areas casting dark shadows of branches and leaves upon the ground which her silver hooves stepped upon gently, she was trying to be quite. The brushing of there silken skit along the ground however would alert anyone to her presence.
Silver horn a glow and little orbs of glowing white light drifted about fragile looking wings which fluttered gently upon her back. The pure white end of her tail just lightly ran over the tips of the grass blades.
Looking around the darkness of the forest, the beads upon her form jangling against each other with each movement of her head. Ears flickered picking up sounds while a small amount of light was cast around her from her horn aiding her sight in the woods.
She wasn't looking for anything in particular she was simply wondering and enjoying the lovely evening in all it's beauty.

Another Soquili was sharing the forest this night..Equally entranced with the beauty of it, though that wasnt the only thing on his mind.
Spike was a daddy.. Baskets had arrived, and he was eagerly waiting for them to open and expose themselves..
But the thought of them emerging scared the stallion morethanhe thought it should.
He and Birdy had been expecting this. It was something theyd even planned.
But now that it had happened, Spike found himself wondering if he should have let the little Bird mare find someone better than himself.
But of course not. He loved her, and she loved him.
"Bloody Hell..What were you thinking Spike? Were you TRYING to destroy lives.."
But he knew he was exaggerating..His being a father was not goingto end the world, as much as it seemed like it shouldve.

It was that voice, those words, which reached her ears. They weren't too far off, whoever it was that had spoken them. They sounded upset about something. Curious and ever helping, whenever help could be lent, the fluttercorn changed her course and headed in that direction.
White hair fluttered about her a few locks wisping across her face in a gentle breeze as she called out softly. "Is someone there?" Her voice was soft and yet carried quite well upon the night air.
The soft glow from her horn and the orbs of light about her illuminated the darkness about her giving things an eerie quality in the area about her.
"Is someone hurt?" She called out, she had only heard the first part of what was being said, and hadn't a clue anything had been said about destroying lives.
While she looked around for the one who needed help, or so she thought, she continued thinking about her children. They had grown up they were now as larger as herself and her mate, and so lovely. She was so proud of her children, it had been on her mind all day and all evening thus far, how could it not be though?

He wasnt hurt, nor was he upset..But he had been nervously awaiting the arrival of foals. He had no idea how to be a father,and if someone would have asked about fatherhood while he was two..He would have laughed them out of the area.
But now..
Children = Tie down..And he loved Birdy, and wanted to be with her all the time..but what if they had had foals too early, even though it had been a year since they had admitted their love for each other..
But a soft voice made his ears perk, and the Unicorns head flew up, and he gazed about. He wasnt scared, as the voice seemed equally innocent and kind.
"I am here."
He called back, hoping not to scare her.
"And no ones hurt."
He said with a nod, though he could not see her so she apparently could not see him.

Hearing the voice again she was glad to hear no one was hurt but still she made her way in that direction.
"That's good, I did worry." She called out softly as she stepped on a branch which crackled under a silver cloven hoof.
Finally when she turned her head to look around her light landed on a blond unicorn.
"Are you the one who was shouting?" She questioned softly.
A mother of three her children were all adults now, but only just so, she had been nervous as well and her mate hadn't even been around when she'd had their baskets.

Why yes, he had been shouting.. Of course he hadnt known that anyone had been around. He almost felt bad at ruining the mares evening.. Though almost was the key word..Spike very rarely felt remorse.
"Glad I could stop the worryin' then."
He said with a nod and small smile.
He watched her, and when she did not turn away to go back on her way, he cocked his head.
"Yes, I was shouting, though I apologize.. Didnt realize anyone was out 'ere or 'nything."
He said with a blush of a smile that evolved into a nod again.

A light nod of her head as she came close to the other horned soquili. Wings fluttering behind her delicately.
"You sounded like you needed help...is something wrong or upsetting?" She asked softly. Even if no one was hurt there had to have been a reason for the yelling and shouting and she was curious and if she could help with...something she would.
"No need to apologize, I'm glad no one is hurt and that's what matters." She cared for others, even if she didn't know them or feared them, and thusly knowing that someone wasn't hurt meant more to her then worrying over nothing.
Thinking of something, or realizing something she flushed. "I forgot...I should introduce myself before I even talk." At least up close, yelling and looking for another didn't count did it? "Right?" Or was her reasoning wrong?

He smiled, and decided to speak to the mare,as she seemed kind enough to him.
"Upset? No, Im not upset, pet. Though I am in a bit of a confused state of mind."
He gave a nod, and looked at her from Ocean teal eyes.
The same eyes that could very well be passed to his foals.
Oh God...Foals..
"My mate, she and I became parents recently.. Theyre still in baskets, but Im 'aving second thoughts."
He smiled, almost laughing bitterly.
"Guess its a little late for that."
He looked back up at her, lion tail flicking behind him in long swaying motions.
"I cant be a good father.. My own father was completely useless. My mum raised me. 'ow do I know that 'verything will be okay?"
He asked, very serious.
But his smile came back as she thought she was being rude.
"Its good to do, but I dont require a name."
He said smiling.
"But mine is Spike."

Nodding she smiled listening to him fully, and watching him, before she spoke gently. "I'll start off with introducing myself, Spike. I'm Lady Requiem, Requiem for short." She said giving him a pleasant, gentle, smile.
"It is indeed a bit late and I had the same worries myself when my foals were still in baskets, my mate wasn't even around while they were in their baskets. I worried quite a bit about them and my ability to parent, as I don't remember a thing about my own." She spoke gently while her wings drifted gently behind her in a gentle breeze.
"Being a good father...I should think it's the same as being a good mother. I don't think one can be sure just how they'll fair till the foals have come out of their baskets and you are faced with the sight of them. Theirs a sudden change in you, at least there was for me, a sudden strength I found myself feeling something which helped me and made me a good mother when I had doubted myself and wondered how I would manage at all."
A twinkling in pale lavender eyes and she spoke one once more. "The fact you worry means you'll do well and everything will be ok, because you care enough to feel such things. You'll make a lovely father I'm sure." A reassuring smile was given to the stallion then while her own tail flickered behind her, the same sort of tail he possessed she did as well.
