 Ears flipped up and forward when Pierce charged onto the scene. Skin and bones he snorted angrily but did not throw any accusations. The bay was stubborn and likely she had chosen not to eat. When she skids to a stop he almost reaches out to touch her. He would have assumed that she'd be spittin' mad that he hadn't made it here sooner but she stands at his side, loyal. Who would have guessed? It makes the words Badr says next harder to hear. Choose. He glances at Pierce, her skeletal frame. Vesti was out of sight but what did she look like? Surely Pierce was taking care of her right? He glanced back at the flaxen stallion waiting for Nikola to speak and leave. If he were to ask for Vesti to come home, he wouldn't be there help her to brave the waters again. He pinned his ears back, faced with an impossible choice. Surely he was overstaying his 'welcome' as it was; insisting that he accompany Vesti across the water between their islands would certainly be enough for Badr to take back his offer. "Pierce," he grunted, the energy drained from his voice, his body. As he turned to return back into the sea he scanned the dunes for Vesti, wishing desperately he could see her, apologize.. hopefully she was in a better place than standing around in the heat. Dragging himself back into the water he shook his head before leaping into the waves lapping at the shore as slow and as sluggish as he felt. N I K O L A |
