(Private RP between Davros Skaro (Angelique DelaMort) and Mariposa Neive (Divena)) Davros Skaro impatiently paced along the barren rocks that lined the base of the canyon. If he paused to think long enough he could almost imagine the raging river that once cut through solid rock that led to the creation of this vast inverted arch. But that was long ago, long before these times when the once mighty river had disappeared entirely. It was a type of commentary on the fleeting nature of life. What once was always destined to turn to dust some day.
And there was nothing any one could do to stop it. Had he the power, he would stop time, create an everlasting perfection out of this flawed world. But those things were the realm of more powerful beings, the elders among them, and beyond his scope. Instead he was relegated to the sky, soaring over these lands to see their glaring imperfections and know there was little he could do to address such wrongs. The powerless nature of his situation ate at him and left him alone with his racing thoughts, always working to find an answer to impossible questions. "It's enough to drive one mad," he commented quietly to himself.

 Mariposa hummed a soft little tune to herself as she bounced along the path, with no more thought to her destination than she gave to the tune. Mari had a tendency to to loose herself in her own mind. Not that her mind wandered, or that she thought deeply about anything. Because she didn't, really. Rather that she simply.... got distracted. And so, she didn't hear or notice Darvos, despite the fact that he was difficult to miss.

The stallion paused mid-stride to observe the bouncing creature of blue. He knew he made an imposing sight and was more than a little put off at being ignored like garbage along the side of the path. He was also a little annoyed that his time of self contemplation had been interrupted by....this little song and dance number. "What are you doing?" he demanded, his perturbed nature dripping in his voice.

That time, the other sound penetrated the music playing in her head and she paused to blink at him, startled and confused. “Oh! Hello!” she said with a bright, if a bit vacant, smile. “I didn’t see you there! How are you? Oh…” she paused again, looking around and realizing that she didn’t know where she was. There was another moment of confusion flashing across her face before she smiled once again with relentless cheer. Oh well! She would figure all that out later. Or if not, it would still be fine, yes? Because one was only lost if one didn’t know where one was, and she knew exactly where she was! She was right here, talking to this rather large, dark stranger. She giggled. A tall, dark stranger. Where had she heard that before? Oh my! Was that a flower? Distracted, she skipped over to a weed and examined it closely. Nope. Not a flower, just an ordinary green plant. Though maybe it would still bloom. She moved an inch to the left to examine it from another angle, having already forgotten about her questions and the stranger.

The stallion's nostrils flared, Ignored? He couldn't believe it! And of all things he had been dismissed for the sake of a flower? Some little, insignificant weed. "I was speaking to you," he stated punctuating his words with a stomp of his hooves. "What in the lands has possessed you to travel this path?"

She blinked at him again, taking a moment to process what he was asking. Then she smiled, vacantly. "Path? Oh! Are you lost?" she asked, clearly not having understood him correctly. Or maybe she wasn't listening.

Davros rolled his eyes and stated very, very slowly, "No, I am not lost." He added struggling to keep his voice even, "Though you may be wandering about aimlessly like you do. I would ask you again, what are you doing?" Though he asked, he didn't truly think he would gain an intelligent response from the little mare. Her mind was clearly in other places. Where those places were he had no idea. He honestly did not believe that even the spirited knew the trails this little mare traipsed. The stallion paused realizing his life would have been much easier if he had only opted to continue on his own lonely path that morning and not bothered with addressing this strange little...creature. "Why do I even bother?" he heard himself asking...himself.

Mariposa tilted her head a bit as she peered up at him. "Why do you bother with what?" she asked, curiously. For the moment, he had her...nearly... undivided attention. Not that it would do him much good. She hadn't processed what he had said first, and only the last question he had muttered. Though... the stranger seemed to be talking to himself. Should she have responded? Oh, what if he was talking to someone else instead of her or himself? She cast her gaze around, looking for another that he could have been talking to. She even looked intently under each of her hooves.

Davros found himself staring in a stunned silence. He actually didn't like silence very much...which at the moment seemed to be part of his problem. Never the less, he was annoyingly intrigued by the little mare's behavior, of course by intrigued he meant bewildered beyond comprehension. So bewildered, in fact, that he could not stop himself from voice the fact, "What are you doing Now??" He demanded while a small part of his brain warned him that he was being pulled into another circular conversations. While circles could be very helpful as wheels for transports, in conversations they never seemed to get very far.

“I’m Looking,” she answered, the capital L very obvious in the way she said the word. As though it should be clear what she was doing. And really, it should be. Oh, unless he still wasn’t talking to her? Well, whoever he was talking to was certainly rude! They hadn’t answered a single one of his questions! Or maybe she just couldn’t hear them. She supposed that was possible. Sometimes she didn’t hear things that were said. Of course, what the little, flighty mare didn’t realize was that it wasn’t a matter of selective deafness but rather an inability to remember. Sometimes, when her mind wandered, she immediately forgot what had been said and so, when she came back to the conversation, she assumed she hadn’t heard what was said. One could also say that she wasn’t very good at listening. But none of this was anything the little mare was aware of, nor would she dwell on if she was. She peered intently at her back hoof.

"Looking?" Davros repeated flatly. Looking? he repeated again in his mind. What the devil could be so incredibly fascinating? The back of her hoof? "What's wrong with your hoof?" he asked perplexed thinking there Had to be something wrong with it since she was staring at it like some sort of mythological being.

"It's blue!" she told him, looking from the hoof up to him, blinking in surprise. "Is it supposed to be blue?" She blinked again and smiled, once again losing track of the thread of conversation. "Hello!"

Before he could stop himself he made the blunt statement, "You do realize that You are blue, don't you?" He regretted it as soon as he said it. This was a long day. And it was not getting any shorter.

"I am?" she asked, utterly shocked. The possibility had never occurred to her. How kind of this stranger to tell her! "Thank you! I had no idea.... I thought I was quite happy. I wonder why I'm sad... do you know?"

Davros had to fight the very strong impulse to smash his face into the ground and scream in frustration. He had to fight it a lot. However the stallion prided himself on his intellect (which was steadily deteriorating with this encounter) and instead instructed his body to take several DEEP breathes in an attempt to make the veins behind his eyes no longer pump blood at such a frenzied pace. This went on for quite some time.
"I meant..." He began when he felt his stress levels return to the standard 'elevated' status. "That your coloration, your pigmentation was indeed blue."
