 -Drip... drop. Tiny little balls of moisture fell slowly from the sky, so sparce and inbetween that they almost seemed to be clinging to stay in the sky. They warned of a shower, perhaps even a torrent, but for now they were harmless, just tiny cold sprinkles covering the grass in a soft and shimmery sheen.
The ever-light sprinkle didn't bother the mare however, her front paws taking to the slick grass far easier then her back hooves seemed to. But she didn't even notice the soft slide in her hooves from time to time. Her eyes were on the sky, shaking her head playfully each time a drop hit against her muzzle, soft amused hum taking to her voice. What a fun day!
Rain storms could be fun, but sprinkles were always awesome!-

 Being caught up in this small rain shower was not the most pleasant of things that Mozenrath had experienced in his time here. Though it was quite troublesome at times when it turned into vicious onslaughts of torrent rain which would turn to ice and then quite possibly snow. Or just snow completely. The winter times were leaving, but that didn't mean the snow would go just as easily. And with all the freakish weather of this place he wasn't even sure what was suppose to be normal weather.
With a slight grumble, he slid down the side of a small hill. How he longed for the desert. At least there the weather was quite predictable. If it weren't for the item he had in a small package hidden under his turban he most certainly wouldn't have come this far out of his way.
Oh well. You win some you loose some really. The weather isn't something one could control, unless they had the neccisary means to do so.
The feeling of movement underneath his cape caught his attention. Xerxes had buried himself underneath the length of cloth. Measly fox didn't want to get wet. The stallion rolled his eyes lightly and continued on his way.

-Dual tails twitching with soft delight, the greys of the day hid the darker hues from her sight, and as her mind stay locked on playing, and a melody touched her voice, her attention drifted from the things around her.-
"Rain, your powers are astounding
When I lift this shell to my ear
I can hear your voice crying out
Rain, your magic's all around me
When you bring the heavens down
I can fly until I dry ouuu.....!"
-Song coming to a halt as a long nervous yelp escaped the mare, she tried to catch herself from tripping. Only to laugh once more, a pleasant nicker sounding as she caught herself once more, scolding herself.- "What a clutz you are Felicia!"

The sound of someone singing nearby caught the stallions attention quickly. How could anyone sing at a time like this? There was work to be done. Well, at least for him. He never understood why people sang. Who really wants to listen to another squawk out some words to some silly little song? Not him. He had better things to do with his time.
Unfortunatly it seemed whoever it was, was in the direction that he was going. Great. There might be a chance he could sneak by without being noticed. But what was the point in that? He was not afraid of whoever it was. Although....they might stop him to badger the life out of him with questions. He let out a quick snort. His nostrils flaring lightly as he traipsed onward.

-Pausing lightly, her eyes turned to the clouds, squinting just slightly to keep from any rain that might try to sneak up on her. And softly she inspected the clouds, noting the very light grey they carried, and the slow pace they seemed to be moving thus far. It didn't look like bad weather really.. she still had awhile to play. No need for shelter just yet.
No need to head into the forests until the rain began to fall quicker. Giving her mane a little shake, she lowered her head for a quick snip of grass, relishing in the tiny sip of moisture that accompanied the bite. Before she was up once more, trotting in a slow circle as she gazed across the grasses. She wished a foal was around.. someone who would play in the rain with her. As long as it wasn't another of those soquili who thought she was a skinwalker and tried to run her off again. Running and slick ground really weren't the best of friends.-

Keeping a steady ear on all the sounds around him, Mozenrath continued on. Eventually he came upon the small clear of grass that Felicia was inhabiting at that moment in time. The sound of soft hoof beats against the ground gave him the indication that there was, indeed, someone very nearby. And in that instant he spotted the mare.
But....she was strange looking. Nothing like any of the other Soquili he had come across in his traveling across this strange world. She seemed out of place. But then again he hadn't explored the entire area of these Soquili's world so she could just be some strange mutation, or something like that.
Snapping his tail side to side, he decided that perhaps if he just strolled on through like he had seen nothing she would quite possibly not stop him. But on the other hand, she might just catch him and he'd be drug into some casual, or perhaps not so casual conversation. He hoped at least that possibly she had some sort of decent mind in that head of her's.
Throwing all caution to the wind, he stepped out into the clearing and started to casually cross over the slick grass.

((Poor Mozenrath XD ))
-The soft patter of rain and the gurgle of soil shifting below the grass would have kept the stallion safe from even Felicia's cat like ears, had she not been whistfully looking for a foal. But alas she had been, and as her eyes settled upon the cloaked stallion an immediate nicker touched her throat.
He had clothing like Shigure had! What was it he had called that swash of cloth...? A kimono? Maybe this stallion knew him? After all he had said it was a family tradition.
Happy to see another, and eager to ask if he knew the kind stallion she'd met only days ago, she tossed her usual caution to the wind, picking up her paws to trot in the direction of Mozenrath. Calling out excitedly as she did.- "Hello there!"

Crap. She had spotted him. Sigh. Seemed just walking along like nothing was going on wasn't going to work all too well. His ears flicked backwards as she called out to him and he stopped dead in his tracks. Turning his head slightly, he looked at her, his black eyes standing out against his pale face which equally stood out amongst his dark clothing.
A flick of his tail and he had turned his body to face her. "Greetings." He muttered lightly. "And what's a fine lady like yourself doing out here in this type of weather? If I didn't know any better I would figure we were getting a nice storm coming up on us soon. Wouldn't want you to get all wet." Eh, might as well make some small talk. He wasn't about to get out of this anytime soon he figured.

-So far so good! No yells, no rearing. In fact his words were quite pleasant to tell the truth. Polite and eloquant. And of course she was oblivious enough to ignore any discomfort his tone or body might be showing.
In fact her tails twitched in positive pleasure as she settled to a stop a few lengths before the stallion, answering his question in a chipperness unbefitting of the dark day.- "Oh it's not so bad yet. Just a bit of a sprinkle. Refreshing really I think."
-Eyes drifting upwards once more with her words, she mused softly.- "I've been watching the clouds. Once it gets a little darker I'll probably head into the forests. Is that where you're headed?"

He shook his head briefly before speaking. "My destination is the desert. But I believe the rain might get heavier before I reach it. So I will probably need to take shelter in the forest anyway. So possibly depending on how the weather turns."
Black eyes raised towards the sky as he cursed the season in the back of his mind. During the summer it would be warmer and less rain would have been seen. But that time was several months away. At least in the desert when it rained it didn't for very long or it dried up quickly.

((I'm REALLY sorry for the delay dear. crying Tests and this nasty cold that's grabbed me just seem to zap any of all of my rping inspiration.))
"The desert?" -The raise in her voice was almost comical, surprise touching her more then anything else. She knew what the desert was.. having heard vague stories of the barren place. But never in her days had she heard of someone actually wanting to go there!
After all, why would you leave a place so full of life and food and water... for a sandbox? Kitty or not.-
"Hmmmm" -Her eyes drifted upwards to the sky in reaction to his own gaze, and gently she fidgeted her front cat like paws. She was probably going to sound like some silly little philly asking... but you never learned anything if you didn't ask.- "Is it far away the desert? I've never seen it myself."

((Its quite alright. 83 ))
Mozenrath's gaze fell upon the mare again. A curious look in his black eyes. "It's a fair few days journey from here. You probably wouldn't want to visit it now. The days and nights can be pretty harsh."
He gave his tail a thoughtful flick as he thought about it. Not many Soquili dare go into the desert. It's beauty was over looked because of it's desolateness and lack of greenery. "Besides. If you've never seen it yourself you'd probably need someone to go with you. Its an easy place to get lost in."

((On the off chance you want to finish this up. (I have spring break this week, so I have nothing to pull me around) Otherwise we can let it drop. :3))
-Was that an offer? Whether it was or not, and whether or not she actually WANTED to go to the desert, her thoughts twisted around it softly, dual tails beginning to sway. It wasn't often she was offered company, ecspecially not extended company. And who knew.. it could be fun!
Not to mention that it'd give her a greater grasp of things to sing about, if she'd actually trekked around the deserts on a grand adventure herself! Perking up with soft interest, a nicker tickled her throat.- "Would you really take me?" -Well she'd see now if it were an actual offer!-
