It was another warm day on the meadow. The sky was blue and the sun shining brightly as fluffy clouds rolled across the heavens. A gentle, cooling breeze ruffled the grasses and blew the dandelion seeds asunder. All in all it was a very lovely day. Wild flowers were scattered here and there but if one looked hard enough they could find a very large patch of white daisies.
Flower laid amongst the flowers on her back, her sapphire blue eyes peering up at the clouds, the sun's rays warming her body. Above the line of flowers one could see four small legs and possibly the tip of a muzzle. The mare sighed contentidly and tried to see what sorts of things she could make of the clouds.
A soft song escaped the mare's lips. Her tone was rich, and velvety. She was most definately a baritone. It was almost startling to find the melodic sound coming from such a small creature. She sung an old love song she had heard her grandfather sing to his mate.
"Alas, my love, you do me wrong, o cast me off discourteously. For I have loved you well and long. My mate was all my joy, my mate was my delight, my mate was my heart of gold, And who but my lady, my love." She sung so softly that if you weren't listening for it you wouldn't catch it.
She was very shy by nature and thus, didn't like to draw attention to herself.

Caelen's own expression was one of friendly blandness. As much character as he had to show the world the little mare probably wouldn't fare too well with him being boisterous and explosive. Not that he minded being quiet at time, it just didn't suit him for the most part.
"Oh aye, it's nice. It gets old havin' young an' old tell ye that ye sound funny. Have they nae thought ter figure that ter me their barbaric slang makes me wince?" Maybe the tiny mare would relax if he kept talking and didn't force her onto the spot, "Indeed, me current an' only herdmate, Lovey Dovey, gets teased from me fer her tongue. She's a lady as mcuh as a young mare can be, but her soft voice needs refinin' aye."
"Jest the same I'll have ter make sure I dun smash up anything save fer the grass, eh?" What? An almost-smile? Well, his own rambling probably put the little thing at ease. His voice was quite nice to listen to if he did say so himself. Ahh, being an "impudent male" had it's perks.
"So miss Flower, would ye care ter walk with me or would ye prefer yer solitude either or are yer choice. Neither will please or displease me more or lass, ye ken?"

A slight chuckle escaped her lips. "Aye, I'd c-certainly fancy b-b-being tied to some r-random, yet c-charming, bloke's back." She said sarcastically, but in a good natured way.
"I-I called some b-bloke 'mate' a-and the more I t-thought about it t-the more I understood the i-i-implications of saying s-such. H-he might 'ave t-thought it w-wasn't platonic." She admitted. "That'd 'a-ave been real m-mess."
Of course, being little, she had to go at a much faster clip to keep up, but for now that was just fine with her. A little brisk exercise wouldn't kill her, in fact, she welcomed it. "Just don' g-get goin' too fast or you're a-apt to loose me." She told him.
Maybe there were both good and bad stallions, like there were mares. Perhaps her father had just been a bad one and Caelen seemed to be a decent bloke. But then again, her dad seemed decent at times as well.
Thus, she had no idea what to make of this encounter. Maybe he was trying to lull her into a false sense of security? Yes, that had to be it. She glanced up to him as she walked, every now and again.
