Humming to herself, Poppins made her way through the tall grasses of the meadow. Undoubtably it was an odd picture to the casual observer, the greens and yellows of the landscape at distinct odds with a mare who could, at best, described as 'colorful'. Tightly curled purple hair, a small pink saddle on her back, and a myriad of decorative chest and body designs made Poppins resemble a carosel horse more than a wild pony, yet in her mind, there was none more at home in her native element.

Not that she viewed herself as feral, naturally. A short stint with the Europeans had resulted in the trimming and oiling of her mane and tail (something that hadn't come out of said mane and tail since) as well as her saddle; more than that, it had made her aware of the fact that there was something to be said for socialization. That was the problem with the 'natural' world, she'd decided; too many Soquili roaming around on their own and not enough chances for an actual, meaningful conversation!

Well, she was hoping to remedy that someday. In the meantime, she knew one thing: Covering an entire landscape on your own four legs was slow going!

Flik was playing with a long grass stalk in his mouth. After another sleepless night he was tired and dozing comfortably resting in tall grass felt pleasant. He was daydreaming again and naturally didn't notice someone coming his way. Suddenly he felt ground pulse and he moved his ears lazily to try to find out what was the cause of it. He heard humming and quickly raised his head looking in the direction from where the sound was coming only to see very interesting mare coming his way. A very interesting mare. So he got.

'' Hello. The song you are humming sounds interesting. Does it have a name? ''

Ask and ye shall receive, obviously! Having just been thinking of the perils of isolation, it was almost too fortuitous for there to be another Soquili around just like that. Still, she couldn't argue with her eyes or ears, and both of them were telling her that there was another Soquili present. And furthermore, that Soquili was wearing clothes!

Coming to a halt, she gave the stallion a brief but curious look, then a smile at his polite query. "Hardly; it's called 'walking ditty' and has no defined melody. But I've found that a little music can make even the most long and boring walks go by quickly, and fast ones even faster." Smiling, she gave the stallion a slight bob of her head, then asked, "I didn't wake you up, did I? You were so well-hidden in the grass I didn't even know you were there!"

Flik smiled back. He was already bored from doing nothing all day and time was passing by so slowly.

'' Interesting. I never thought of it that way. And no, you didn't. I was just resting. I like it here it's quite peaceful. ''

Well, that was good to hear. While Poppins herself didn't beleive in sleeping during the middle of the day, she understood that some Soquili were on different schedules than herself and needed to take their rest when they were able. Much as she was looking forward to a conversation, she liked to know that she hadn't woken someone up to do it first.

She had to agree about the peaceful part of the stallion's description, though. Looking around, she noted the still grasses, the silent meadow...yes, it was very peaceful indeed. "Well, I certainly can't argue with you there. This seems an ideal place to nap." Having said that, she offered the stallion a friendly smile. "I'm Poppins; who might you be?"

His name?! How impolite of him. Although he was tired there was no excuse for not following the simple rules of fine behavior.

'' I am Flik. I apologize for not mentioning it earlier. ''

Flik liked the sound of her name. Poppins. It was something new and strange to him but it suited her. He looked the way she came.

'' Almost ideal. You still have to keep guard that someone doesn't walk right over you. ''

He looked back at Poppins observing her more carefully and although she had saddle it suited her quite well with hair stile and markings he noticed now better. All in all she looked very sweet.

'' Am I keeping you. You seem to be traveling somewhere. Are you in hurry? ''

"Oh, there's no need to apologize, Flik; if I were in your situation, being disturbed from a casual rest by a stranger, I would prbably have taken a great deal longer to introduce myself. Still, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance."

And it was, really; having him appear so fortuitously gave hope to the idea that socialization was indeed possible for the random roamers. It was that knowledge that helped keep her smile wide and her eyes dancing as she responded, "I suppose that there is a great deal of truth in what you say; I'm very glad I didn't wind up running over you, as that would have been a terrible way to meet someone. That said, you aren't keeping me from anything in particularly; I'm traveling for the sake of traveling, not with the intent of reaching any particular destination."

With that she went silent for a moment, glancing around the clering with curiousity. "Do you live here, then?"

He turned his head in the direction of near by mountains and looking at them made him realize he wondered off a little to much. It was three days since he left home and he thought it would be about time to go back.

'' Here? No this place too open for me. I live in that mountains over there. ''

Flik laughed from picture that popped in him mind of them meeting by her running over him.

'' I agree with you. It would be quite unusual, and painful for me, way to meet. So you travel for sake of traveling. Are you far away from home? ''

The talk was pleasant and made Flik lose track of time. He was surprised how much time passed when time to part came. Thanking Poppins for good time he had talking to her he wished her safe traveling and hoped he would have a chance to meet her once more. With last wishes and goodbyes said they parted each on they're separate way.
