Welcome to Gaia! ::

The story behind this family
This family was created, as mentioned above, in honor of femslash february and valentine's day. This thought has been pondering in my mind for quite a while before I said hey-- The couple rp contest back in fall was pretty awesome I want to try something like that as well.

But I wanted to do something different-- I wanted to give some representation to the Marginal Orientation of the Soquili population, and this is where the two came from.

The baskets, on the other hand, was a way to give them a family. They are considered miracles from the wishing star. So to clarify, the baskets are similair to the mock breedings for those who wished for a family of their own. I would love the owners who win these baskets to keep them with their family, but it's just a suggestion heart

How to win a Ponne!
There will be an rp contest for the adults and a raffle for the baskets. Everyone is free to enter for who they want, however just know that you can only win one and they will be counted for against your monthly freebie for march.

Just give me that Prompt Baby Face

Please only choose one prompt when entering for the Mares!

When entering for the prompts, please base it off the small story posted, everything can be determined up to you, their personalities, the names, how they grew up and what they do. Even their sexuality however-- The only thing I ask you to respect is their love. These two are soul mates, they are meant to be together, just like any other contest please do not expect me to be lenient with their love.

Prompts:
[a] You've always been this way. You've never known any other life style. Others around you are confused, they sometimes ask you if you're alright. They never judge you outwardly, but you can tell there's something wrong and that you're not like the rest. But then there she is. She's different too. And it's nice...

[b] Was there ever a time you've been without her? It feels like you two have been together for an eternity. You two are childhood friends, you grew up together. You know everything about each other. And yet there are still secrets to hide, secrets that you two haven't dared share to each other.

[c] Your friends always push you off to adventure with them. But one day you get lost and separated from them. What happens from here? What do you do-- do you enjoy the time alone or do you try to find your friends? And what happens when you find that other mare wondering the lands on their own.

My bones shakes for you my love

Username: Novablu
Pony's Name: Kiska [meaning: Pure]
Temperament: "Troubled" -- A beautiful, pure soul despite appearances, she is quiet, gentle, sweet and innocent, almost to a fault. Except for the fact that there is something within her...something she doesn't understand. Kiska is reserved when it comes to strangers, offish, because she's never truly been accepted anywhere. Shadowed by the darkness that runs in her blood, struggling with self-acceptance and self-worth after a lifetime of verbal abuse from her kalona sire, she just wants to live a life filled with happiness...but it always seems just out of reach... Her soulmate is her other half, truly the reason for Kiska to fight those inner demons.

Prompt response: Was there ever a time you've been without her? It feels like you two have been together for an eternity. You two are childhood friends, you grew up together. You know everything about each other. And yet there are still secrets to hide, secrets that you two haven't dared share to each other.

Kiska didn't like to remember back to the time where Korra wasn't by her side, a shining light, a beacon in the darkness that seemed to plague the half-kalona mare's soul. In fact, she'd gotten pretty good at shielding herself from those thoughts, those memories filled with anger spraying like blood across the grass, the screaming of her parents as they argued and fought, the way her poor mother softly cried at night, her heart filled with ache because she was torn between being alone--maybe forever--and staying with Him.

A shiver wormed its way up Kiska's spine. He was her father, but he was never a father figure, not even when she was a tiny little filly looking for praise. He merely gave her a scowl, disdain, because she couldn't do anything right. Because she was too skinny, too gentle, too childish, too too too. And all the toos piled up on top of her young heart, weighing her down.

And it was Korra--big, bold, brash and always laughing--daughter of the neighboring herd's healer. She'd been the result of a one-night-stand. No father to bruise her heart, her ego, her fragile temperament. No sharp words, just the calm steadiness of her draft-blooded mother and the magic that flowed through her. The first time she saw the other filly, the very first time their eyes met, it was like she'd been struck with a bolt of golden lightning, lighting her up from the inside out. They became friends as easily as the night turns to day, and when Korra matured into a magnificent young mare with light in her eyes, Kiska knew that her lonely heart belonged to her.

Soulmates. Something that terrified her down to the bones. She had no good experience with love. Her parents' relationship was one of use and abuse and dependency and until Korra, she let no one close... Surely she was just meant to be a loner, but she couldn't hide the way Korra's happiness made her heart feel, floaty and fluttery like butterfly wings. It made it easy to forget her past when Korra begged her to run away with her, to explore the lands, to start a family...

But when a miracle happened, granting the soulmates children of their own, a thing that should've spread joy--all Kiska felt was fear. Fear of failure. Fear of becoming her father, of ruining this relationship because she was a mess. She'd never told her love about her father. Her past was kept under wraps... And one night, as the hazy spring sun began to set behind the line of trees, Korra's head resting against Kiska's neck in quiet solace, Kiska knew that she could keep her secret no longer. It was ripping from her chest like a demon, that darkness that swelled to bursting coming up, up, up.

"Korra... We need to talk," she said, barely managing to keep her voice steady, because it threatened to crack. Korra turned her gentle crimson eyes on her lover and smiled that smile and Kiska's heart began to flutter once more.

Somehow? She knew everything was going to be okay.
