Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lusine hadn't gone far, but she had gone far enough. In usual fashion she had gone off where she wanted to go, having ignored her fathers cautions about wandering off alone out of sight. But she had stubbornly gone off, mostly because she had been put out when her father had steered her and her siblings away from here earlier. Besides she wanted to meet a new friend, she never met anyone hanging out with them and so she thought she would go looking for a friend. She wasn't sure why but something told her there was a friend to be found around here, though that could be her vivid imagination, and she had been well into daydreaming when they had passed here earlier.

And as she wandered around she thought more and more she had been daydreaming, the thing she thought she saw shining was no where to be found. But that was no big loss, she flopped down by a bush and rested her chin on her front legs, her eyes drooping a little as she was soon off in some imagined adventure.

Lusine woke as her ear started to twitch, not totally sure why it was doing so at first. Her mind foggy with sleep and the dreams she had indulged in. Looking confused untill her sleepy eyes lifted to find a black foal sniffing at her twitching ear, though that's not what she saw initially. Jumping back with a startled cry her eyes focussed on the dark foal, her ear still twitching from the sniffing.

Eyeing the young male cautiously, noting the catlike patterns in his pelt, scanning over him for any signs he was dangerous or a skinwalker. Getting to her hooves and facing him, her stance set. "Why were you sniffing my ear? Did you want to scare me to death?" Giving a little snort, her ear still twitching as she lowers her head rubbing it against her leg. She knew she had big ears, but then so did her dad, having that in common with her parents didn't make her feel so out of place, even though her siblings both had smaller ears.

Looking back at him when she had her ear back under control, the twitching stopped thanks to the good rub it had received. Otherwise she had not moved, she was stood facing the male foal.

Lusine watched him, it seems she had startled him about as much as he had her. Still stood where and how she had been, she wasn't one for backing up or giving up, even if it was pure foolishness sometimes. Her face going pink under her purple when he said her ears were special. Different she had herd before, odd, funny heck her own family mostly ignored them because they weren't odd or unique there... But never special, what made him think that they were anyway?

Opening her mouth to ask him just that her face feeling like it was burning from the complements. Not managing to say a word though, heat feeling like it flooded over her body as she blushed more.... He was nuzzling her ears, and it felt nice.... and odd... Odd in a way that made her want more nuzzles like that... Her ears twisting and flattening against her head, tilting it back a little so they were out his reach, at least if her didn't move they would be. She wasn't sure why but having someone she didn't know make nice feelings like that was weird, so she dipped her head and gave him a small nudge in the side to make him back off a little. Still a pink colour all over as she was still blushing badly. "Who are you?" Still standing her ground though she was figiting a little from the nuzzles.

Her ears perked up again once he was a little distance away, her colour returning to a more normal purple. Looking at him and straightening a little, now sue was not longer blushing she was more her stubborn self, but not quite as annoying as she could be. He had made her feel all mushy with his nuzzling an he had answered her question even though it came with more of his own, but this was oddly endearing.

"I'm Lusine.... My ears are like my dads....." Thinking over the last question, feeling herself smile, her large ears fully perking up as her smile brightens. "I'd love to play! What game?" Looking much cuter with the smile and the perky ears, any more excited and she would probably be wiggling and giggling. As it was she just smiled at this odd male foal, glad of a friend that didn't seem to want to tease her like her siblings did. Not that they were mean, after all they all had something to tease the other about, things could just get out of hand at times.

Lusine's face went all warm again, it didn't matter to her that he had replaced love with like, it all meant the same thing to her really, but then she was young enough that there wasn't much of a difference in the two. Watching bounce around was funny though, having thought he was freaking out till he pounced the bug, having been surprised at that.

Her giggles were cut short though as he bumped into her, gasping at the brush of his fur against hers, shivering and instinctively shaking to put the hair back in place. "HEY!" Calling after him as he runs off. "No fair!" Running after him, having fallen behind because of his bump and her shaking, wondering it it was deliberate as a way to cheat, though part of her doubted that.

Lusine had not long gotten started chasing after him, and though she missed seeing him hit the tree she did pause long enough to wonder why he was getting to his feet again, that was odd. But he was soon bounding off again which had her chasing after him. "Where are we racing too?" Her breath wasn't running out but she was running as fast as she could to catch up and win the race if she could so she didn't have much air to talk. Though as she ran she became glad he was in front as he stupid ears were flopping around in an annoying way, though others would have thought it cute. Her and her siblings had all received a trait from her father and she often felt bad for him, especially as he had them all. To her thinking her sister had the easiest one to live with.
