Black Bird Sing (thox)

[nala]

Raven.

Today Raven was restless, and as the sun rose he decided to move his black body into the grassy plains. Raven hadn't encountered a female in ages, and the same old ideas that arose from the bachelor territory bored him nearly to death. His muscles tensed as he lowered his head to graze; his front shoulders had bulked out nicely as he aged and he couldn't help but vainly think he was quite a looker.

As he rose his head to chew, he gazed out across the horizon his ears pricked for company.

[Thoxic]

Now, Hexa wasn't all new in this territory, but she had mostly been around the desert areas, but this was just lovely, all the green, or rather red now since the Autumn had kicked in. It was beautiful, and she felt how she was filled with playful energy every time she looked around. Her shiny black coat was tinted blue in the light, and it made her blue eyes really look unusual, as her blaze and markings. A part of her mane, about 5 cm wide, was white due to a black spot on both sides on the upper crest on her neck. Between her delicate nostrils, were the blaze ended, she was a pale pink, and she looked very delicate and petite, she was a true hotblood, even though she wasn't born there.

[nala]

Raven.

He didn't see the mare at first, for he had looked right while she was at his left side. The moment he noticed her equally black coat he stopped his chewing for a few moments, just gazing at her, taking in all of her markings. He was plain, a true black stallion, but she was beautiful. After he was able to control his mouth again, he continued to chew. Raven took his time before he chose to approach, hopefully allowing her to notice him as well.

Hello, beautiful. He said flicking his head in the air while cantering in her direction. He absolutely loved showing off, loved flirting. It was his thing, and as he moved gracefully towards her he veered off to her side circling behind her and doubling back so he could see all sides of her.

[Thoxic]

A few moments before he came up to her, she noticed the black stallion, plain and black with no markings. But those brown eyes.. Those was beautiful, but the bulkyness of his body made him stand out, despite the lack of markings. That alone made him stand out, made him handsome.
When he came up to her and gave her a compliment, she smiled and came to a stop.
"Hello handsome."
Yeah, she liked to flirt and play, and she wad always honest about what she thought, and this stallion was handsome, no doubt about it. It was a treat to look at him, and his voice, young but masculine, made her skin tingle. She was young too, just five years, so she had many years ahead of her.
Very gently she stretched out that pink, white and black-colored muzzle a bit to almost touch his should, just scenting him a bit.

[nala]

Raven.

He hadn't stopped close to her at first, afraid that she might flee, but when he saw she wasn't afraid in the least he seemingly tiptoed nearer to her. Handsome? I see how it is. She initiated contact at first, her pink nose reaching out just shy of his shoulder. He found her clumsy innocence cute, and in turn he nipped at her mane before jumping clear of her. He trotted about before her with his tail held slightly higher then normal. It was quite childish of him, but he didn't really care today, this mare was fun.

Whats your name? He inquired softly, looking her straight in the eyes. His head shot higher as he stopped before her. I'm Raven. His voice beckoned her to play.

[Thoxic]

The slight nipping at her made her nip back with a smile before he danced around with a raised tail. When he stopped before her, she had a chance to look at those wonderful brown eyes again.
The playful tone in his voice almost made her leap out in a playing gesture, she was a playful mare, and would rarely skip chance to play.
"Nice to meet tou Raven. I'm Hexacore, Hexa for short."
Her odd name was both unique and sort of sensual and grown up, with a bit of playfulness in it. Her mother hadn't chosed it, it was her father, who had been just as childish and playing as his daughter.

[nala]

Raven.

Well Hexa, he said while flicking his forelock away from his eyes. After the black feather of hair fell again Raven thought about what he had just said. Stupid, he scolded himself. He had no end to that statement, he couldn't finish his sentence. Um. He was young, and no matter how skilled he thought he was, he wasn't truly a master.

Without finishing he decided to turn back to his good looks and playfulness. Gently he shot at her, escaping her grasp by darting to the side and galloping off a few lengths. Chase me, lovely.

[Thoxic]

His unfinished little comment made her smile, not because he was dumb or anything, but she thought it was charming. Experienced stallions wasn't always the best, the ones that were like Raven here, had a certain unique charm to them.

When he invited to a bit of chase, she looked at him st first, gving the appearence that it was not her cup of tea to chase him. But with a smile on her lipd she couldn't reject the play for very long. With a couple of utterly agile and fast steps she started to chase him, her sleeker body a tad more agile than his more muscled, bigger one.

[nala]

Raven.

She caught up to the bulky stallion immediately, although he had had a significantly larger head start. He smiled as she moved slightly in front of him then fell back meeting his stride. She had won this game, for now, and so he stopped still in the blowing grasses. Hexa, interesting name. He said rolling it off of his tongue a few more times. He liked names, and had always enjoyed the simplicity of his.

He loved the mares face, how detailed the markings seemed to be. Softly he nudged at them, playfully in the sense that he wasn't quite interested in this mare for the wrong reasons. Hexa,Hexa, Hexa. My dear your markings are simply lovely. If he had said these words in front of another stallion he surely would have been pegged for gay, but the way the words vibrated across his vocal cords he made them sound rather dignified, even slightly sensual. He wanted to get to know this mare, perhaps a relationship could be foreseen in the future. Perhaps soon Raven would be able to leave the bachelor territory and claim a harem. Perhaps.

[Thoxic]

Hexa couldn't but smile when he came to a stop, and she was the temporary winner of tjis little game, he would probably reclsim it lster, she had been lucky with catching on to him like that. When he saud her name, ut didn't sound like something rough, like it usually did when others spoke her name.
"My father was a bit dreamy and childish when he named me."

When he nudged at her markings, she flickered with her eyelids for a moment, it tickled. Her blaze was very symetrical, with perfect straight lines, and the snip ending in a perfect 'v' shape, were the white turned pale pink.
"Crazy man, my markings are plain compared to others."
She was well aware of the beautiful mares that existed out there, mared and stallions alike, with beautiful leopard spots and big white markings. Hers was as big as a horses ear on both sides of the neck, not more, except for her socks that held a few ermine spots.

[nala]

Raven.

Wellllll. He said running his muzzle across her back. Your father was a smart man. Raven never felt too close to a mare; he, in a slightly selfish way, figured it was their pleasure. A small smirk crossed his eyes at the thought. Oh you devil. He stepped lightly around her, knowing this wouldn't go anywhere further unless provoked. Honestly he'd never... well, gone that far.

He smiled at her moving back towards the bachelor territory. I should be getting home. He watched her moving ever so slowly. His mind tugged at him, but his body wanted to stay put. The charm within him, caused him to blink as he turned his head to face away from her.

[Thoxic]

H E X A C O R E

When the stallion turned to start walking back home to the Bachelor lands, as he called it, she looked at him and felt an emptiness fill her heart, she didn't want him to leave. As strange as it may be, after just a few minutes she knew that he was one she would gladly share her company with.
"Don't leave Raven.."
Her words not a plea, nut near to it, her voice pronouncing his name very soft and a little sensual, as always when she wasn't playing with someone. She wanted this pretty black stallion to stay so she could enjoy his company some more. But of course, it was up to him if he would like to meet her request.
Standing there looking at him, a faint breeze took both of their manes and tails in grasp and waved the, like flags, her striped with a single strand of white. Her blue eyes closed for a second, before looking at him again, calmly but yet with that almost tempting look of playfulness and sensuality, a glance that seemed to be natural for her, but was just for him at the moment.

[nala]

Raven.

Fiiiine, he smiled sweetly as he turned back and pranced to her. I couldn't just walk away from you. His black tail swished against her face as he placed his head upon her back once more, inhaling her sweet scent. After a few moments of her intoxication he lowered his head to the ground, lazily picking out a few bites of grass before raising his head to her level. So, you've never belonged to a herd? Small talk was a specialty to a young stud like him; the words flowed weightlessly from him as he gazed into her eyes.

ooc: its totes up to you if you want her to have a baby, or just keep em friends, or develop the relationship in further threads? xD Shes a sweetie tho!!

[Thoxic]

H E X A C O R E

Hexa was unaware of what effects she had on him, but this black stallion with those chocolate eyes had charmed his way straight into her heart. She wouldn't call it love, not yet, but it was definitely something.
When he for a moment stood near her and seemed to be very still, she didn't know that he was feeling the smell of her heat. Of course, she knew that she was in heat, she could smell it too, but she didn't know that it was soo intoxicating for him, but if she had seen that expression in his face, her smile would have been from ear to ear, so to speak.

"I was born in one, but my mother and I left the herd when I was still a yearling, she couldn't stand being a bird trapped in a caged.. She was too wild for that."
Her mother had been a bit odd in that way, the herd life had never tempted her, but Hexa had missed it, missed her crazy, childish father who named her so strangely.
To keep herself from digging too much into the past, she looked at him again. It took just a second to decide what she was going to do, and she swept the tail over her hindlegs and flanks, spreading the scent around her. Ohh, she felt so naughty...

(Hmm, maybe they can build up their relationship bit by bit in some threads? She definitely likes him, and wouldn't mind having his foal , and she will probably grow to love him a little later on.)[/blockquote][/blockquote][/size]

[nala]

Raven.

Witha flick of the tail and a lite nip at her ear he trotted forward again. He was antsy today, and playing with this mare made it worse. You know, I grew up with a herd. He stated it matter of factually, as if she already knew his history. He'd moved far enough away from her that she would need to catch up to continue hearing his story. And my father sent me off to become a stallion nearly two years ago.

[Thoxic]

H E X A C O R E

She smiled silently when he told just a nudge of his story to her, and nipped at her ear. To have revenge on his little nibble, she took a few steps after him and nudhed his flank with her lips, almost being impatient. Maybe she was a bit rude, he was talking about his history, but she couldn't help it. His dancing, nudging and the pure smell of him made her impatient, who said that only stallion became affected by the heat?
Now, she liked him alot, maybe a bit more than usual, but she was affected by her own state and mood, and she would probably not stop until she had gotten what she wanted, so she nudged him in the flanks one more time.
"And what does a colt need to be a stallion? A herd of his own? Lots of muscles?"
She was actually curious about that, it was a mystery to many mares what drove the colts forward and made them stallions in the end.

[nala]

Raven

With a twinkle in his eye, the black brute glanced back at Hexa. Well surely I wouldn't know yet. He knew she would have no idea what he was talking about. You can't become a stallion until you know what it takes to be one. He really didn't mind the thought of being young; even at the age of five he was alright with not being a stallion, in his father's eyes at least.

But soon, very soon, he would need to be taking some longer steps in that direction. Playing with mares was fun, but soon he would need a love and a lineage. He would disgrace his family if he didn't have a legacy to pass down.

What is it, my dear, that makes you a mare or a filly? His smile would have been as wide as a Cheshire cat's had he in fact been a cat.

[Thoxic]

H E X A C O R E

Hexa smiled brightly at him when he commented that he didn't know yet, and the he asked her about what made her mare or filly, and just like that, she laughed. Clear as silver bells as she waved her tail for a second and took a few step around this charmer, in all her elegance.
"What makes me a mare, is the maturity of the mind, the grace of ones steps, and the heat during the seasons.."
What she mentioned was both logical, a mare was mature both at body and mind, and a stallion should be too, but they clearly had other ways to measure it. But yeah, mares and stallions were different in that way, as stallions often claimed that they had to seek strength, that it was their goal in life. Fuck strength, what about having a life that you actually cared about?
Or maybe that was just what she thought, but she was a mare who always spoke her mind, but at the moment, she was a little busy, trying to tempt this stallion.
"If you can't feel the smell now, you are not a stallion yet, and as it seems, you can't smell it.."
She teased him, but her word wasn't so much teasing, as they were almost a challenge.

[nala]

Raven

Huh! He scoffed, beginning to lose the control he thought he had. I appreciate your light boldness, but a mare should be careful how she moves her tongue and where she places her tail. Gently he calmed himself slightly, running his maw down her spine slowly as he passed her. His coal black tail flicking lightly in her face.

Hexa, dear, stallions and colts alike mustn't ever talk of a females 'heat'. It's simply none of our business. His eyes touched hers as he rounded her back. He knew, god he knew, but he wasn't like that. His father would be disappointed, his mother hurt. He continued moving his hooves coming back to her head before pausing.

[Thoxic]

H E X A C O R E

The smile on her face as he ran down her spine with his muzzle made her chuckle, oh yes, he could feel it, she knew he could, or else he wouldn't be so close to her, smelling along her spine like that.
"Well then you stallions are very much gentlemens, but there is no need for me to watch my words, cause I have no stallion to be with, no king to follow, no commands to agree with but my own. My words are my own, and my tail is mine to wave were I want it."
She took a few steps around him as he also paced around her, and even though she wasn't waving her tail at him, she made sure to tease him. Even though the loneliness made her independent, it also made her more in danger for winter and predators, but more importantly, she lacked a stallion to love, a family to love, but there was nothing to do about that,
As she came to a stop, she lowered her tail and looked at him in silence, she would tease him no more, if he saw her as such an unfit mare to talk with. It was clear that he didn't like how she was independent, he almost corrected her for being just the one she was, and she didn't comment that last thing.

[nala]

Raven

He was so bent on not making a mistake, he had made one. It was a big mistake too. It seemed as if she had immediately shut him off. crap. He was unsure at first if he should approach her again, waiting dumbly before her. He didn't want to look like an idiot now that he was one.

I'm sorry. I shouldn't... He didn't exactly understand what he had done wrong, only that he had done something wrong. I'm sorry. He let his brown eyes talk to her as he decided on the approach again. His head rested lightly on her back as he asked for forgiveness.

ooc: so baby? or is she mad at him a little bit xDDD

[Thoxic]

H E X A C O R E

She looked at him when he stopped with his movements around her, and stopped with that annoying attitude, maybe it was just her, but she had felt like she was being scolded, like he was better than her just because she was trying to flirt with him. She hadn't known that he was interested, had he just played with her, flirted and charmed her to the point that she was.. almost feeling things for him? She wasn't sure, but she had thought him to be at least a little different than all the other dumbnuts that she had met, who also had tried to scold her for speaking so freely.
"You shouldn't what? Scold me like I'm a little filly out playing with the big boys?"

Her blue eyes met his when he tried to catch her gaze, and even though she was a little mad at him, she couldn't resist those chocolate eyes, they were like soothing honey over her upset mind, and it felt good, just looking at them.
"I'm not a filly, I can take care of myself, but don't scold me for trying to charm you. If I hadn't liked you, I hadn't been here right now."
Her voice was silen, a bit upset, and she lowered her head and tail and dropped all that lively energy, even though he said he was sorry and put his head on her back.


occ: Yeah, probably, but she is a bit upset and mad, she feels like he was trying to scold her like she was a little filly xD it hurt her since she likes him alot. He might have to make her.. happy again or something XD

[nala]

Raven

He felt really stupid now, as she continued to explain his mistakes to him. He wouldn't be leaving like this, not with a mare who could possibly ruin his reputation in the free lands. He could do what his father did? He could walk away with her? no no no... he was so confused.

I wasn't scolding you. He cooed gently, brushing her back with his cheek. I was merely teasing pretty girl, Hexa. Obviously this had never happened before, obviously he was confused, obviously his mood was ruined. He had to set to work now if he was to get anything back. Come on now Hexa. I like you too, what just happened? I know you are strong and independent, and I like that. His voice threatened to beg, but he wasn't quite there yet.

[Thoxic]

H E X A C O R E

She didn't know what to do really, even as he stroked her over her back with his chin, she calmed down, and maybe she had been a bit hasty with saying that he had scolded her, but it still felt like it. She had been alone for so long that it felt like so many were picking on her because of it, and he had implied that she had to be more careful, and that was what had ticked her off a bit, because she didn't belong to him, that was a commitment she wasn't sure if he ever would commit to.
"Pretty girl? I'm no pretty girl..."
She wasn't teasing about that, she actually believed that she wasn't because she was so plain compared to others, and her independence had scared of many.

She raised her Head just a bit, and turned her head around, and she was just some inches away from touching his muzzle with hers where he had his head now, over her back, her sky blue eyes laying upon him, and she actually felt small for the moment.

[nala]

Raven.

Ohh, but you are. The black stallion had really screwed this one up. Hexa... a tint of retreat hung to his voice, a slight tone of begging. He paced away from her, no longer touching the mare as he passed back and forth. crap, crap, crap He was confused why this particular mare, the only one who had rejected him, meant so much to him. He watched her as she moved inches away from his nose, her blue eyes peering up at him. She couldn't hurt him, she didn't look horribly hurt, and yet all he wanted was for her to forgive him. I'm sorry. He lowered his head bellow hers flicking his ears forward.
