 Curled up around her sweet little Sir Yukio Beck she starts to wake when his tentacle mane starts wrapping around her neck. Slowly opening her eyes she blinks to get used to the light of the rising sun. Lightly nodding her head a few times she accidentally wakes Sir Yukio Beck. With a soft yawn she turns her head then stretches her neck. Giving a quick shake/shiver of her head and neck she nods her head at the waking Foal, "Morning my sweet little one. Do you have any plans for today? Or shall you hang out with me for today?" Tilting her head she wonders what they will do if he decides to hang around her the whole day. Wondering aloud, "Go for a walk, trot, canter, or gallop? Go swimming? Hm, maybe we should just wander around to find something to eat then figure out something later?"

Copying almost all of Esperenza's movements once she woke him, at least the head nodding, the yawn(not purposefully though), the neck stretch, and then the shake/shiver of his head and neck. Causing his tentacles to light wake into the side of her neck. Startled she leaps up startling him to leap up to look around. Wondering if she saw someone or something coming near. Glancing up at her he realizes what must have happened, "Sorry, guess I'm not used to my tentacle mane just yet. If it gets any longer when I grow up I might have to keep my distance when I shake my head." Blushing he looks any other then at her feeling really bad for hitting her. Quickly lifting his head up he tilts his head at her, "Hm, we should find something to eat and then we should warm up to go on a walk. Maybe while we're walking we can steadily get up to a trot, then a canter, and then maybe reach a gallop if I can keep up that is?"

Smiling down at him, "Oh, that's alright it wasn't much more then shocking to me. If I had realized you were going to copy me, like the charming little foal you are I would have gotten up a lot sooner." Walking over she nuzzles his mane which quickly wraps around her muzzle. Snorting in shock with wide eyes she tries getting her muzzle lose till she calms down and decides to answer him in a bit of a mumble unable to speak normally, "What ever happens with you mane I'm sure others will understand if you accidentally whack them. Like I understand you were just being cute and copying what I had done. Seeing as you are the kind that watches, waits, and then copies. That's one really good way to learn how to do things." Nodding her head to agree with herself she starts freeing herself from his tentacle mane. -sighs from relief- "Now that's better, we should get started on warming up so we can then get started on walking around to find something to eat."Nuzzling his soft wings she coos, "We don't need to go too fast today, just as fast as you are comfortable with."

Blushing at her mentioning his copying her he then nods his head agreeing with her. So when she nuzzles his mane he can't help to giggle when her muzzle gets trapped. Before trying to help her get muzzle lose she replies to his question so he perks his ears listening contently before replying, "Thanks, I hope they understand because I wouldn't purposefully hit anyone with my mane. Though it's different with you since you seem to always understand what's going on." Blinking a few times, "Oh, I didn't know I had a good way of learning things. If you say it, it must be true." After she gets her muzzle unstuck he smiles and giggles a bit when she sighs then nuzzles her into her chest a bit. Nodding in agreement he walks several feet away to fix his wings a bit then to start warming up while Esperenza comes walking over to his right side to warm up with him. "Alright, I'm fine with going at what ever pace you chose since you know what's best."

After warming she light bumps him, "Alright, we should get going since we had a good enough warm up. That and we warm up too much we'll end up hurting ourselves." When he doesn't reply she starts walking glancing over to see him smiling full of excitement. Ready and willing to see how far they get today as well as how fast he can go without any sort of pain rushing through his legs. Last time that happened she had to carry the poor dear all the way home. She's not the best with healing the normal way though she did her best with what she had. Almost tripping over a silly little vine she shakes her head giggling at herself for letting her mind wander she then lightly scolds herself out-loud, "Normally I'm tripping over things because I'm too busy daydreaming to look where I am going. Now I'm tripping over things because I'm remembering about a memory when you went too fast and hurt your legs." Shaking her head some more she really can't believe how much she's changed now that she takes care of Sir Yukio Beck. Then a thought pops into her mind causing her to worriedly look over at him to ask, "When you grow up, if you decide to start looking for a herd to run with. Would you try finding one that the both of us would be welcomed into?" Lightly blushing at herself for asking she coos, "Either way it's your choice in the end. Whether you stay without a herd. Or whether you choose to find a herd to call your own." Smiling she decides to watch where she's walking before she ends up falling. All while lightly thinking about what the future shall hold with all it's different paths to choose from.

Having nodded with agreement to her he starts thinking about what happened when he did hurt his legs. That is till he glances over to see her almost trip over a vine quickly wondering what she must be doing that keeps her from concentrating on the path ahead. When she starts scolding herself out-loud his ears perk up, "Oh, you used to daydream? Well thinking of memories might be better then daydreaming. That is until to fall face first into the ground then neither sounds good to do." Giggling he shakes his head, "I was thinking about that as well. Luckily for me I didn't think that far into the memory that I almost tripped." Then a thought stirs in his mind wondering if she changed her daydreaming to lost in memories because he arrived. So when she speaks again he almost stops walking completely having been shocked out of his thoughts. Looking over with a tilted head and a confused expression he listens carefully. When she blushes he walks closer to snuggle into her side while his mane tries to wrap around her neck to comfort her. He would have responded though she was speaking once more so he'd be polite and wait till she gave him time to respond. With a small flap of his wings he gets his chance, "Me? Leave you behind? Not a chance, no way on this Earth would I get myself into a herd that wouldn't also accept you. That and what ever I choose I will choose with your help. We are a family so we should choose as a family when it comes to such matters?" Blinking a few times hoping that's the right thing to say then reaching up he nuzzles her muzzle trying to comfort her. Good thing she likes to lower her head a bit when walking or he never would have been able to reach high enough to nuzzle her muzzle.

Blushing for the longest time after he asked about her daydreaming feeling certain she might upset him if she says the wrong thing. Knowing him, h'll know for sure that he was the reason she stopped daydreaming as much, almost all together. "Yes, I used to daydream a lot until I found you. After that I decided I would try my best to daydream when I'm not walking with or without someone. Seeing as I can get myself into a lot of trouble if I daydream while walking. And here I thought thinking about memories would be less dangerous." Lightly laughing, "I should have known better." Nuzzling him back she then explains, "You aren't a burden, you aren't getting in my way, and I would never stop doing something, or do something less then I normally do unless I wanted/want/or will want to. Being around you means a lot to me and I want to make memories with you. I can't very well do that if I'm daydreaming now can I?" Since it seems to her that he understand she smiles, "Now I know you would never purposefully leave me behind, though I was just scared for a moment that you might leave me one day. I'm not trying to trap you with me forever, though I want to make sure that you want me around like I want you around. Seeing as we are a family and sticking together is what I want us to do. Which means you are perfectly right about us choosing together as a family when it comes to such matters as herd choosing." With a wink she lightly, though not fully, teases, "Even the matter of helping me pick the right stallion to be with." Giving a light giggle she nuzzles him so much he has no other choice then to quickly move away from her giggling uncontrollably for a while. Though his giggling got her giggling just as much making her feel like a young one once more.

While giggling with her he smiles brightly knowing that he's not any sort of burden, in her way, or making her stop doing things that she loves doing. That joy quickly turns his giggling to full out laughter startling Esperenza for a bit so he tried a quieter laughter which she quickly joined in. Before long the joy slowly fades giving way to clearer thoughts and a quite walk. Looking around for any soft of food he quickly spots an apple tree not too far away. Racing in-front of her he goes to rush over to the tree when she grabs his stopping him completely. Lifting his tail and back legs up a bit she gives him that, 'Don't rush around without telling me where you're going!' look quickly making him blush. Clearing his throat, "I was only going to go over to that tree to pick some apples." Hanging his head, "Alright, you don't have to tell me. I should know better then to rush off because you never know who might be around. The closer I am to you means the safer I am." With a sigh he hangs his head feeling bad for startling/scaring her half to death like he did. When she gently lowed his tail back down and his hind hoof touched ground a thought came into his mind. Turning around he just about shouts, "Does that mean I'm also supposed to stay near you in case you are the one that needs help?" Feeling excited about the mere thought of his being near her to protect her as well as her protect him makes him flap his wings. Flapping them faster and faster he starts to blow anything lose near them a good distance away forgetting all about the apples.

Her ears and head go back from the shear shock and loudness of his question. Blinking a few times she tries to get her thoughts together before answering him. When something does come to mind to coos, "Oh course, you are my Sir Yukio Beck now aren't you? I heard you come from a line of Knights so I'm more then sure you are capable of protecting me if and when I am in danger or in need of assistance." Looking over to the trees he was going to rush off to she spots the apples then smiles down at him, "You have some mighty fine eyes there, spotted them before I did. Now how about we walk over and collect some?" Pondering something she tilts her head this way then that. Then stares at the trees, "Though we'll only take as many as we need at this moment seeing as we don't have anything to carry them in." Though with the cool breeze he's making she gracefully sits then lays down to cool off a while. Of course when he moves she'll get up and try to walk next to him as best she can with all the flapping he's doing.

Carefully taking everything into in he doesn't respond quickly trying to pick just the right words to say. While still extremely excited about everything going on, "A Knight? I can't really be a Knight! How did you hear about my family members being Knights?" Tilting his head a bit he stops flapping his wings, "Is it how I know what my last name is? Or is it different?" Not giving her a chance to answer he begins to trot around her happily thinking about what his family might be like if or when he gets to meet them. Wondering if any of them have manes like his since Esperenza doesn't so there is a chance his family might not have tentacles either. Slowing to a stop he turns towards the apples knowing there shall be plenty of time to talk and think about family later. Walking closer to her he nuzzles her while she gets up to walk over with him. Getting just under the tree they stop and he tilts his head giving her a sideways glance, "We can talk about my family stuff later while we are coming back this way to eat some more apples. While we walk, trot, or even canter seeing as I'm not too sure how fast I can go just yet without hurting my legs." Nodding to the lowest branch he asks, "Can you please give me a lift up? I'm not sure I can jump high enough to reach even the lowest branches." Nuzzling into her shoulder his mane quickly gets stuck on causing him to blush horribly while trying to nicely pull them off. They don't always do what he wants them to do, though they are more then helpful when he needs them to be. With a roll of his eyes he smiles up at her, "Guess they have a mind of their own and they seem to enjoy sticking to you."

She learned quickly that his wait then respond thing actually works better then she ever knew. He knows that if she's taking a while to respond to something it's only because she wants to let everything sink in to properly answer him. Something she never really did before. Looking inside herself she coos, "Yes, like you know your last name. I'm guessing you must have heard it before I found you. Or maybe it came to you in a dream? That's how I heard about your family being Knights, at least I think that's how. It was in a dream and I heard someone talking about you and your family." Shaking her head, "Or I could have imagined the whole thing." Nuzzling him back she's perfectly fine with that, "We can talk about you and your family when ever you want, now, later on or walk or trot, or canter, or when we come back here while going home." Laying down she smiles, "Of course I'll give you a lift up to pick some apples. And I must agree they seem as found of me as I am of you. Which I am sure you are just as fond of me as I am of you, my son."

Happily leaping onto her back he steadies himself as she stands up. Knowing that if she thinks she heard it in a dream then it must be true. Though when he heard her call him son for the first time he realized that she is comfortable enough to call him son aloud. Making him feel even more comfortable around her then before, "Thanks mother, I'll get a large amount of apples for you." Grabbing them with his mane to make sure he doesn't bruise them in any way. And if he grabbed them with his mouth he might just eat the ones that he picks. When he couldn't pick anymore he asked, "Can you please lay down so I can get off? I think I got enough for the both of us, if not I can always pick more." While she starts lowering down he counts all the apples to find he was able to get one apple with just about each tentacle. Probably could have gotten two each though that might have been a bit much for now. Though ten apples is good enough for now since he doesn't really eat that much after waking up. Leaping off her back he turns to give her the pick of the apples before he starts eating them, "After we eat can we race to our next spot since we took a while talking. And of course when you talk you walk or you might run into something." Blushing, "I'm glad you are fond of me and my mane, we are of course very fond of you as well. Which does explain why my tentacles keep sticking, clinging, and wrapping around your neck or muzzle."

After they rested a bit after eating she gets up ready to go someplace new and to see how fast her son can go. When he gets up she starts walking in the direction to their destination where ever that might end up being. For a while they walk to look around at the scenery, listen to the sounds around them, and just have a nice calm few moments. Before she decided to speed up to a trot which catches him off guard a bit, though not enough that he can't quickly catch up. Keeping up the trot for a good while they get their breathing where they can talk without having to slow to catch their breath. Seeing as he's young and still has a lot to learn even with breathing, Smiling down at him, "So how's this pace for you so far? It's not very fast, though not as slow as a walk. It's a nice pace to get where you are going while still being able to look around without tripping on just about everything on the path."

Smiling up at her, "It sure is a good pace to still look around while still going faster then walking. Though I'd like to go faster because I can't wait to see where we end up. So when ever yo decide that we are both ready to go into a canter I'll be ready and willing to see how that goes. I'll probably be a few steps behind you till I can catch up so just a heads up about that." Keeping up the trot till they get past all the trees he quickly notices that she picks up her pace a bit. So he does the same actually shocked at how well he's able to keep up with her. By the time they get near a stream she turns to the right causing him to have to turn sooner to keep form running into her. Cantering next to the stream makes him feel content even if they never make it to their destination seeing as he loves water. Pounds, streams, rivers, waterfalls, and lakes. He hasn't been to an ocean yet, though his mother told him about them and he's not sure what he thinks. So she had promised to take him to the ocean one day. After a bit he asks, "When we go to the ocean will you play in the ocean with me till you can't stand the salty water? Then after wards we can either hope it rains or find a river that goes into the ocean to wash the salty water off? That would make a lot of sense, right? Finding something that goes into the ocean to wash the salt off so we don't get sea salt into water that doesn't have sea salt already in it?"

When he brought up about the ocean she instantly thinks of her friend whom she meet while going to the ocean for the first time. While thinking about her past she also keeps her sight in front of her making sure not to trip while cantering. Nodding her head, "Yes, I'll play in the ocean with you for how ever long you wish to play in the ocean. I won't get out a second sooner then you do since it'll be something special we can do together as mother and son. So it'll be up to you how long we stay and play, or how short. Seeing as I might not be the only one that doesn't love salty water. Either way, I'll be thrilled to be spending time with you. That and my friend told me that the salt water is good for our legs. Meaning I won't be too quick to say no to playing in the ocean, just as long as you don't splash water in my face. Then I'd have to wash the salt out of my eyes and probably wouldn't be in a good mood till my eyes fill better." Since he doesn't answer back quickly she decides he's either thinking about what she said. Is happy she'll be spending a lot of time with him even in an ocean which she says out loud that she doesn't like. Or he's just concentrating on his cantering and breathing not wishing to to trip and possibly roll a few times before laying flat on his back?
