It had been a while since Scarlet's recovery, and even longer since what had caused it. She still could not allow her mind to venture there. She had spent much of her time dedicated to making her super long bout dysthymia up to her family. Finally she felt as though she'd done enough. It felt like a huge weight had been lifted off of her shoulders.
Now she had been pressured by her family to go out and find someone else to help her get all the way better. It was true, she would be the first to admit, he was not a mare who enjoyed being single. It was not that she was particularly dependent, rather she just needed someone to love.
She lay in the snow, letting the thermic properties warm her, while at the same time chill her with thier frozen state. As she kicked at the soft, white pillows around her she wondered, vaguly, what she would do to find another. Her pervious mate she'd found rather spontaniously, and retained through a rather dangerous, and admittedly terrifying expirience. She wasn't really looking forward to recreating that particular scenario.

The snow was close to being above his ankles with each deep step he took, it was a prance like gate though barely graceful. With each step he would stop and paw at the white stuff before moving on. His short shaggy mane ruffled as his head swayed watching his own hooves march back and fourth. Daytona wasn't exactly the 'smartest' of characters, his mind kinda here and there at times. Long tail swaying behind him, flicking bits of snow before dragging. It was indeed a nice day, for him at least, warm under his blanket. A nice blue one that his human had made him a while ago, it ruffled and shook with his uneven gate.
"Snow, snow, what silly things." His bass toned voice rang out, though cracking now and again. "Falling without worry, without care. What does thy snow think the prove?" Giving a snort of a laugh he continued, bucking now and again.
Somewhere along his pleasure prance, the gray and spotted stallion opened his duel colored eyes to look around at the winter wonderland that laid itself out before him. Trees brandishing their own blankets, Daytona stopped and inhales the scents of pine and the crispness of the winter air. There was also something else out there, it smelt kinda like him, though only different... Head tilting itself to one side, blue and brown eyes blinking as he sniffed again. Yep, there was something out there! Turning, he backed up a couple paces before prancing ungracefully in the direction of the mare, his eyes closed again and a soft hum escaped his throat. What could have possibly been on that mind of his? Who knew...

Scarlet's head popped out of the snow at the sound of a voice. Snow had since piled on her face, and not comical little lumps of white lay gently on her snout and head. She grinned to herself, thinking how lovley it would be to have a companion to prance about in the snow with. Perhaps he felt the same way. She popped up out of the snow and shook the flakes from her face, head, and back.
"Hello there stranger," she chirped, prancing over happily, leaving a trudged trail through the snow. She did stop every now and again, however, to kick a clump of snow from her flank that flew up as she stepped. "Lovley weather, for winter at least, isn't it?" She grinned as she neared, nodded in familiar respect, as she did for everyone.
"My name is Scarlet, and I live over there on the mountain!" It was then that hse eyes landed on the blanket and her grin widened. "Oh, you have two leggers too? Do you have more than one? What are thier names? What are they like? Are they lovley, mine are lovley. Do you love them? They must love you to make you such a handsome blanket. Is it just your, or are there more soquili?" Her questions came in thier usual rapid-fire sequence, and it was only when she ran out that she took a deep breath of air.

Ears twitching as they happened to catch the sounds of another, his eyes opened as he stopped. A snow covered mare popped up just about from no where, well he had a feeling that she had been somewhere at least. Looking the light colored mare over, she looked kinda cute, in her own way of course. Not that Daytona happened across his own all the time. The last one he ever met was Starlet, a young cute filly, but he thought she might be grown up and with family by now. Thought passing to others he barely caught the start of all the questions.
"Why hello there, it 'tis a good day for a winter one." He nodded taking another glance around the snow covered landscape, wishing he could keep it this way for a while yet. 'my name's Daytona, but my human calls me Tony for short. She is a nice human, shy at the very least." He rattled off some answers, other questions lost to the chaos of others. Head spinning a little he sat back on his haunches staring that Scarlet.
"Those are a lot of questions to be asking at one time, you know that right?" Tony chuckled shaking the snow from his mane. "I have only one human, she's good with dyes and making things out of deer hides. She made this one for me and one for a friend." He answered a couple more trying to fish out the others, but most were indeed lost besides the last couple.
"I love my human very much, we've been together for a while now. And there's only her and I. My sister is somewhere, lost I think... Haven't seen her since I was little though, wish she would come back." Tony frowned as he thought of his sister, but shoved that aside to a few questions of his own. "So, Scarlet, what are you doing out here all alone? Kinda cold to be out without a blanket on, though I rarely go anywhere without mine. So live with any other soquili?' Though his questions weren't as rapid as hers, he didn't quite have so many besides asking the same as she had shot his way. Listening he stood and shook the snow from his flank and blanket ends.

Scarlet seemed slightly saddened at the mention of Tony's lost family. "Oh, that's too bad. I lost my brother when I was very young too. Rutherford, was his name. Not long after I lost my mother and father." She smiled despite herself. In her expirience, faking a smile often times gave way to real smiling. "But this is no time to speak of that. Meeting new soquili is a happy moment! Making new friends always is." She nodded, and surely as she had known it would, her smile became real again.
"Sorry I spoke so quickly. I have so many questions when I first meet someone. Sometimes I feel like I might burst I have so many!" She giggled and tossed a little bit of snow with her nose. "I just get so excited, I can't hold it all in." She snapped gently at the snow falling around her.
"It's good to love and be loved," she said with a slow nod. "I do believe that is the whole reason for living. Such a lovley emotion, isn't it?" She continued to nod at her thought until she was adressed again. "Oh, me? Well, I'm just out by myself, thinking and what not. Nothing really special. I come from Whales, so this clime is quite temperate, really. I live atop that mountain to the north with my, of lets se here now," she began to list off the names of her sons quietly to herself, "5 sons and granddaughter. Yes, I think that's right. Well, technically, I only have one son, but I love all of my boys, and I think that's all you really need to make a family."

Daytona watched the mare, though leaned himself off to one side a little from all the talk. He almost felt like someone were being pushed over. Boy, this one did like to talk even admitted it openly. Shaking his head, he straightened himself up and kicked at the snow a little. She had such a large family, even though admitting on only really having one son. He had no one besides his human and sister that was off somewhere... It was beyond him anyways.
"Yes, meeting others should be a happy time, not really time to dwell upon that that cannot be helped." He nodded some before passing over the spot he had been standing at and to another. His ankles a but numb from the snow and needed warming up. "Shall we walk and talk? Even with my blanket, it is still a bit cold out here." he admitted, not exactly liking the cold, even for how wonderful the snow made everything. Really, he would rather be at his humans sprawled out by the fire.
As he passed the mare, he nudged her a little playfully. Tail flicking behind him, his pace picked up at an easy prance. Hooves pulling themselves high over the snow in a show type style. He wasn't much for showing off, but loved to whenever he could get the chance to possibly impress someone. If his sister could see him, she would haul him off and read him the riot act, but with her gone... he was as free as, well... He didn't know quite what, but he was free to do as he pleased when he pleased.

Kesmi omg i am so sorry i forgot that it was my tag And impressed Scarlet was. She watched Daytona prance with high shiny hooves and grinned to herself. Someone was finally willing to play with her. She mimicked Daytona for a moment, thought never truly copying him. She wasn't graceful enough to raise her legs fully above the snow without wobbling side to side violently. In the end, she ended up comically kicking snow all over the place to the sound of her own ringing laughter. "There used to be other soquili with me," Scarlet finally answered Daytona's previous questions. "But they grew up and left to begin their own family. It's lonely, but that's also the course that nature takes." These days, despite her losses and pains, her heart was beginning to turn again towards young ones. Ever the mother, Scarlet felt rather lost without little ones underfoot. "Though one of my sons is expecting a brood, and we're all very excited about having tiny hooves running around again."
