Splash splash sploosh. The sounds of splashing water weren't perhaps that unfamiliar to anyone passing by the river...but it was more than just the usual currents stirring up the water. Safi, a wide grin on his face, paddled along through the water, his wings spread and helping him stay above the water line. He might be a full grown stallion, but when it came to many of life's little pleasures, he could act just like a foal!

Zipping in and out of the clouds a figure of the prettiest purple fluttered her wings madly spiraling towards the river. She squealed as her hooves touched upon the water dipping in every so oftan as she kept her speed above the now ripping waters. Like a throwing stone she bounced on top gleefully enjoying herself. As a child thrives on imagination the flutter known as Shaylee lived in that pasttime. Zipping back and forth she squealed yet again in her own happiness not to far fron Safi.
"Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" she exclaimed as she zipped by him with a silly grin.

"...Whoa!" Now, Safi could be just as dense as the next stallion in most things; in fact, he was perhaps more dense than most when it came to many adult Soquili issues. But he was NOT quite so dense that he missed seeing the purple flutter dance past on the surface of the water, nor missed hearing her delighted squeal. Back paddling with his wings, he moved himself back into a water treading posture and watched the mare with interest. Though he knew OF flutters, he'd never seen one other than Indawo before, so he wasn't exactly sure what he was loking at...but what she was doing looked fun!
"Good day to you, Miss! Having fun?" Never one to wait for an introduction, he called out cheerfully to the purple mare; she looked like she'd be fun to talk to!

Shaylee twirled on the water's surface as if it were winter shallowed with a layer of ice. Only sometimes did her hooves ever break the surface now in her little dance. Wings so delicate yet holding herself as if she was light as a feather.
Upon hearing a greeting she skidded in the air holding her posistion orbs of purple gazing for the voice that had spoken. She flicked her curly tail turning herself to notice a large stallion carrying the ice colors of someone she knew quite well. With a flit of her transparent wings the light bounced purple on the crystal clear water below.
"Heyas... Hellooooooooooo there." she returned with a child's greeting full of playfullness and a touch of silliness.

"Hello yourself! You sure look to be enjoying yourself, don't you?" Not entirely a question and not entirely a statement, Safi's tone was amused and pleasant as she...skidded to a halt in the air? Well, that was certainly effective use of wings and resistance of gravity for you.
Paddling over towards the mare, he cocked his head in a querying fashion, having never seen a Soquili behave in such a fashion before. He doubted that he himself could even pull off a false imitation of that water walking routine...but then, maybe he just didn't fly enough. "Lovely day to be out on the river, huh?"

Shaylee remarked how much blue he carried of the ice lineage of Celendria. She lowered herself then that her legs submerged in the cool water. Slightly smaller she appeared in his eyes as she finally touched the waterlogged underside of the river. It was quite possible she could of been mistaken for a filly as little as she was compared to the great stallion in the water.
"I heard about you I did. I know your mom and brother quite well." she beamed as her little figure puffed out her chest. She nodded and then continued. "Oh yes lovely day it is. Can you skip across the water too? I like dodging fall leaves but meh there isn't any right now. So the river is fun too.

Ok, he hadn't really been expecting that; here Safi hadn't even introduced himself, and she already knew who he was! "Well, you seem to have me at a disadvantage, Miss; it seems that you know who I am, and I have absolutely no idea about you!" As the mare sank into the water as well, the stallion obligingly swam backwards a little bit, continuing to tread water with the aid of his fanned wings. As he saw it, she was awfully delicate, and the last thing he wanted was to harm her by proximity or what have you.
"As to the water, I can't say that I've ever tried to walk on water; my wings are rather neglected, as I prefer to walk over fly." As he spoke, he glanced back at his wings as though to study them. "So the whole 'water walking' thing has never actually come up."

Water swaying back and forth caused the little purple mare to bob in the water as she occasionally flit her wings for support. Her eyes wide as a child's danced merrily along as she floated lightly now.
"Me? Oh I'm Shaylee. I live with your mom outside the forest. Nice place too though its getting crowded with everyone that keeps arriving and staying." she nodded noticing him study his wings.
"Hmm yeah I noticed wingeds and flutters have wings. But man are they so different?' she giggled flitting her again to keep the water from weighing her down.

"Oh, so that explains it. You must know my brother Kohana as well then, Shaylee; and for that, I pity you." Grinning ear to ear, Safi watched the mare as she floated about, reminding him more of a foal than anything else.
At her comment about wings, though, he found himself yet again studying his spread wings, then glancing over at her own. The difference was quite striking, what with his being sturdy, large, and feathered, while her were thin, delicate, and translucent. "No kidding...it looks like it would be really easy just to poke a hole in those wings of yours!"

Shaylee bobbed there like a little dingy in the water. Her flitting of wings caught the light reflecting them off the crystal waters. She thought about the spats between the fiesty and the ambitious Soquili roaming their clearing. Always in a fighting stance the ice stallion of dessert could always cause some sort of trouble.
"Yeah Kohana is a wild one. The way he goes after Glory is just too funny to watch. Hrm.. I think he's jealous of her horn. I really do." she noted shaking her head as if to prove a point.
Her eyes traveling to his wings as he studdied them. Yep wingeds were a lot different then the flutters. The new red one Zaribe was always showing off his like their were a prized possesion or something.
"Poke a wha?' her eyes blinked twice as her mouth hung open, "Why would someone do that?" she queried with a quizical look back at her own wings flitting it seemed like a 100 beats per minute.

"Meh, horns are nice enough if you have one, I suppose, although I can't really say that they strike me as something to get all excited about. Sort of like wings, really; if you have them, that's fine, if you don't, then you don't. End of story. But yeah..." The stallion chuckled at the idea of Kohana fighting a mare about a horn; what was he going to do, forcibly pluck the horn from the uni's head and ahere it to his own? "That sounds like something that Kohana would do, even if it wouldn't do him much good in the long run."
Still fanning his wings back and forth on the surface of the water, the icy stallion paddled his way over towards Shaylee, taking a closer note of her wings (just to make sure he was drawing the correct conclusions from them via his own observations). "Well, I'm not saying that someone would actually poke a hole in your wings; I'm just saying that it looks like it could be very easy, what with them being so thin and fragile and all. Maybe if you ran into a mean unicorn or something, you know?

"Oh right" she said glancing around her puffing up her lavender chest. "Can't be too careful with those evil uni and their spears of death now can we?" she snorted looking back at him with a silly face only she could muster.
"Well that uni has got something coming. I think I'd just paw him to death if that even was remotely thoght of ya know?" she said with another serious yet comical look still inhaled like an ocean pufferfish.
She looked at the water thinking just when it was the last time to actually talk with someone and be herself. Million years at best probally.

"Well, laugh all you want, but those unicorn horns can be quite sharp." Safi did his best to keep a straight face, but given the absurdity of the conversation, it was no surprise that his mouth was twitching violently. In fact, it was only a few seconds before he totally lost it; that face she was making was too ridiculous!
"Not that I'm doubting the sincerity of your words, Shaylee, but you'll have to excuse me if I find them a little...ineffectual." Still chuckling, he tried to picture this tiny little mare fighting down a violent unicorn...and failed miserably; she didn't look like she could outfight a dandelion. "Still, I heartily believe that you would go down fighting!"
Already the stallion was enjoying himself; usually he was being told that he was too silly and needed to be more serious, yet here was a mare who made him look downright stodgy! Man, if only Indawo could see this...

She scrunched her nose up even more snorting as her legs splashed in the water. Flitting wings of purple amythest fanned the water causing ripples that shimmered over the rolling waves.
"You laugh all you want" she smiled with a wink, "But I can be quite fierce as a Kalona if need be."
She tilted her head and stuck out her tongue.
"And what about you Safi? How would you handle the likes of evil incarnate carrying a fiersome horn of blackness hmm?" she waited holding her little puffed form with her scrunched up nose. Occasionally pawing the ground err gravel that lied endlessly beneath the depth of the crystal clear water she stood within.

"Oh, I'm not doubting your ferocity, Shaylee, merely your effectiveness." Still grinning ear to ear, Safi sought to demonstrate his point by flapping his wings and sending a wave of water towards the flutter. Even though they weren't out far, he figured it would be interesting to see how she reacted.
"As for me, that woul be easy; were I being pursued by a vicious unicorn, I'd simply make use of these ungainly wings and take to the air; as far as I know, most unicorns are lacking in wings, so that ought to work." No sense in getting gored, unless it was for a really good reason. And he'd never thought of such a reason yet!
