Flying Heart

[Tikayla]

A flash of gold running through the long grass could be seen. A horse, small, so very small. She is running. Running like the wind, away from something, towards something. It is unknown. The gold of her pelt is capturing the sun. Her eyes see everything and nothing. She is looking but she is not. What she sees and what she does not is undecided. She is ignoring yet she is searching. What she wants and what she needs are one thing. How much does she want to be a mare to some stallion, to have her own family. What fun could it be. To be a queen to some stallion. Here, this place was where she would find her stallion. She does so dearly want a stallion. She would be a good mare for any stallion and do what he would want. She would never disobey and would never have to be forced. She would serve to the best of her abilities. Oh if only a stallion would want her and would take her home. Oh to go home would be so wonderful.

Jynxed Halo had been passing through, eyes searching for someone who might need him. Though he would very much like to appear as one who is the rock, the serious and quiet macho type, he fears that he is not. He’s soft and sweet, wanting so badly to protect those who would need his strength. And that’s what he feels he was put on this earth to do. He has found he has no other skills, really, just living as a plain and ordinary guy with lots of love to give.

He sighs and drops his head into the tall green grasses, snapping up the tender shoots closer to the ground. A sound catches his swiveling satellites and he lifts his dial to gaze with quiet orbs in the direction of a pretty gold mare. Halo finds his lips turn into a gentle smile and he quickly finishes his mouthful of treats before slowly beginning to approach.

He doesn’t want to startle her, so the perlino stag forces his eager legs to walk instead of trot like they wish to. Without so much as a word, he comes close and stretches his nose out in greeting before offering his introduction. “Hello! My names Jynxed Halo. A pretty girl like you must have a pretty name,” he says, trying to coax out her calling while at the same time trying to hide his excitement.

(HEYLO! Hope you don’t mind me dropping in.

The mare whipped around upon hearing the stag. Her ears pricked forward, could it be? Was it? The scent told her yes, this was a stag. She walks closer. When his words sink in she blushes, if a horse could blush. "Hello, I am called Flying Heart, what is your name," she responded, glad for the cool wind. She stepped a bit closer to the stag that had chosen to come to her. She could tell that he was not dark. "Where do you live?" she asked her eyes alight with curiosity. She did wish that this be the stag that claimed her as his own. He was handsome, oh yes, and so full of good that she was overwhelmed, yet it was sweet in a way. She had not wanted to be claimed by a stag that would treat her like she was garbage; she wanted a stag that would be gentle, and nice.

[Halo]

He finds his eyes turning a softer shade of gentle as the mare, Flying Heart as she had dubbed herself to him, steps closer to him. He can feel her heat gently wafting against him in soothing waves, her melody tickling his ears pleasantly with each chord her voice hits. It's enough to melt any stag's heart (and his whole insides for the way he feels, like his inwards had gone to mush). No matter how hard he tries to keep ahold of the calm and distant type, he doesn't seem to manage and the true push-over shines through.

Damn...

"I'm Jynxed Halo, I live on the terra called Symphony Falls. Oh, but Halo is just fine, by the way." He tries to glance away quick as he wrinkles his nose, displeased with his choice of words. "You are alone?" he asks as he tries to pretend that he had turned to gaze searchingly over the area, which he then takes note of doing as he makes believe. No one in sight, no one she is with perhaps and certainly no one to lay harm to her.

A soft sigh escapes her. She is not a mare who enjoys being alone and the stag's presence had made that even more obvious. She chose her next words carefully. "I am alone, in the sense that I have no herd, and no stallion. Here, though, I am with you. So that all depends upon what type of alone you are asking." She was excited now. Her breath was coming in short bursts as she tried to tame the fluttering in her heart. She is sure that he can here its irregular thumps as her soul soars. She listens to him. And when he says where he lives she smiles, as much as a horse can. Symphony Falls, she has seen it, heard of it and the stallion that calls it his own. And yes he has confirmed it. His name is Jynxed Halo, or Halo as he seems to prefer. She looks into his eyes searching for the look of darkness and she finds it absent. There is gentleness, perhaps for her, or perhaps for his own herd, though she has never heard the neighing of mares or foals around Symphony Falls, could it be that this is the stag that will make her his own. She dearly hopes so for he is perfect. His personality was, she could see, gentle. It was as he had barred his soul and let her look into it. She could see within him the goodness. Yes this was the stag for her, and she had thought that she would never find one. But she must not scare him, so that he leaves. She must not be too forward she must wait until she sees that he has accepted her. For she has already accepted him.

[Halo]

Halo chuckles quietly at her answer; she seems very literal but it doesn’t bother him in the least. She is right after all, no use chastising what’s correct. Seeing as she hasn’t moved away from him thus far, he takes several steps closer so that he can lightly place his nose against her neck. His flares his nostrils and drinks in her scent silently with each breath, learning it because, if she accepts, he might just invite her back to his terra. Since...she is alone.

Mind made up, he lifts his head and stares into her gaze, wanting her to see his true sincerity. “Heart...I can call you Heart ,right? If you have no where to go, you are welcome to come back with me to Symphony Falls where I, too, am alone.” He pauses and looks in the direction of his home as if pointing before turning his attention back to her. “Then there will be two of us and we won’t have to suffer loneliness anymore.” Yes, he admits that, for all his terra’s beauty, he is lonesome in an empty land.

He turns his front towards the Falls, in the East, dial turned towards Flying Heart intently. He awaits her answer and will either be accompanied by her or return to his lands alone. I hopes it is the former, for the company of a pretty lady would be quite pleasant.

His chuckle washes over her like falling rain. It excites her for reasons she can't quite comprehend. It isn't a mean or vicious chuckle but one that is sweet. When he walks closer she loses her breath, it whooshes out of her though she tries to stifle it. When he rests his nose upon her neck she nearly lets loose a cry of elation. She manages to stifle that however. Her responses to his actions are baffling but she doesn't mind. She rather likes it.
"Yes, you may call me Heart, I rather like it." she whispers, feeling no need to be loud. His question startles her, nearly baffles her. She is not caught completely off guard, she rarely is, but she still is surprised a bit. "Yes I will go with you," is her heartfelt response.
She steps closer to him. Then she reaches and rests her own muzzle upon his neck, reaching it with a bit of difficulty, she is quite small. Then she smiles up at him sincerely. "I will go with you anywhere."

[Halo]

Halo is pleasantly surprised by Flying Heart’s response, his smile widening on his velvety lips as he lowers his neck so she can reach it with better ease. The relaxation in her voice, the lack of anxiety in her body language, is very much relieving. They will enjoy each other’s company, he thinks, as he draws away slowly after lipping gently at her ear. “Follow me, Heart. We’ll go home, then,” he whispers, matching her volume.

And he turns and begins walking, glancing back many times to be sure she is with him before picking up into a slow trot. He is excited to introduce her to his terra. He hopes she will find it as enjoyable as he does.
