we were born sick
Two months. It had been nearly two months since her arrival in the Lagoon. It was crazy, how time seemed to fly by so quickly. She was thoroughly enjoying her stay here, too. It seemed that she wasn't going to be leaving anytime soon, either - unlike her last two stallions, who had both traded her within the first month or so, Felony seemed to have the intention of keeping her around. Not that she minded, of course. Felony had proved to be... interesting. He wasn't much of a talker, but that was okay. She could keep herself entertained without his help.

Of course, there was always something lingering. Presently, the only thing that lingered in the back of her mind was the thought of the upcoming breeding season. Ever since she had become mature enough to carry a child, Zhenya had been warding off potential suitors, trying her best to get through the autumn without drawing attention to herself. She hated the fall - it meant raging hormones and lust-crazed stallions. It meant there would be foals coming soon. And if there was one thing Zhenya hated more than breeding season, it was foals. She always found them to be ugly and gangly and annoying. They sought attention every minute of every day and were far too rambunctious for her liking. The very thought of having to deal with her own hellspawn made her shudder in repulsion. Ugh.

Pushing the thought from her mind, Zhenya wades into the Lagoon's waters, heaving a sigh of relief as the cool liquid laps at her forelegs. Feeling relaxed, she lowers herself down, shivering in delight when her barrel makes contact with the water. Oh, how good it feels, especially on a nearly unbearably hot summer day like today. In one way, that was one thing she did like about autumn - the nice, cool weather. This heat was getting very old, very quickly.

The buckskin mare wallows in the shallows, eyes closed and a content smile upon her face. Occasionally, she takes a moment to sip from the lagoon, or just splash around playfully. She doesn't care who may or may not be watching her - she is simply enjoying the moment.
