Maybe it was because she was her mother's first, but she knew she got away with a lot growing up. For the most part, her mother let her do as she pleased unless she got herself into danger or pushed her past her limits of tolerance. It was rare though for her mother to lose her temper or squeal at her but when she did, Medusa always knew a harsh nip was going to accompany it so she learned how to react quick and put some distance between them when she heard that sound. Still, she'd seen her own mother doing the same antics and running up and down the beach like she had no cares in the world. She'd caught her mother and father playing like foals in the surf, screaming and growling at each other like they meant to kill each other but they didn't. It was like some weird sort of foreplay or something. In a way, she envied it, but at the same time, that kind of stuff made her cringe. She could only take so much affection before she had to do something to ruin it. After all, that wouldn't get her an adventure now would it? When she showed her disappointment about the new members huddling up together like lost pups in the rain, he said they would begin to explore soon enough and she grinned with eagerness, her tail giving a swish of anticipation. "I hope you're right." She would be ready when that time came. If she was still here, that is. She glanced down for a moment as it hit her, her face growing thoughtful. If not, she would be on a whole new adventure on a new island. The idea made her skin shiver with excitement. She told him that she could make her own decisions and he responded by reaching out to nuzzle at her forehead. It made her feel slightly offended, like he was giving her a child's treatment, but at the same time, she'd seen the proud smile on his lips and knew he was just showing his own approval. She guessed she could let it slide....this time. He agreed she was old enough, which made her chest puff out a little, and said that was why he came to her first. She nodded before shrugging. "I'm sure Mom won't mind. She's going to have a new kid to raise pretty soon. She'll have her hands full." She said offhandedly. She wasn't jealous of the unborn foal or feeling replaced. If anything, she was happy their attention would be focused elsewhere. That way, she could get away with more, especially when they weren't all on the same island together. When she asked when she would get to leave, he said he had to speak to her mother and that he would take her himself. Her brows lifted in surprise. He would leave the herd to escort her? Now she really felt important. He mentioned bringing Annubis along too and she scowled, feeling a little less important. Annubis was one of his own sons through another mare but Medusa couldn't really recall running into him. He must be avoiding her or something. She wondered if Akela was telling him bad things about her. She stomped her hoof. If he was, she'd let him know about it soon enough. She tilted her head. "Warsaw, I've heard that name before. That's one of your allies, right, Dad? Is he on the island with Ironclad?" She wondered if he was a subordinate or something. Didn't the war her parents went off to fight have something to do with him? She thought she heard his name in idle conversation before.
