Falls

Half soaked, and near deaf with the roars of the Falls, her brown eyes watched the painted draft mix. He was a little short to be like the hulking giants she had cleverly avoided in some of her journeys. little RED watched him with amusement at his surprise. He was relaxed and it only took moments for the red roan tobiano to realize that she had taken him off guard. What would most likely be a clever, smooth tongue now was unsure of how to proceed. At least he didn't stammer.

She gave him a soft smile, tossing her head farther down the embankment, farther away from roaring of the falls. Her demeanor changed from on guard to a little bit more relaxed. She sauntered from him, with a single ear trained to hear his hoof beats. She was not completely stupid but she was also trusting that a stallion that could be upset by a simple question of who he was would not be so aggressive as to try anything while they escaped the thundering of the falls.

When they were far enough away, she turned to face him, her head cocked to the side just slightly. "Pagan eh?" She gave him a smirk. "I have been called little RED since I was knee high." She paused to itch her shoulder, watching as some of her winter coat fell to her hooves. "Tell me Pagan, what brings you to the Falls? Do you trust your land to remain unguarded? I've met some of the bachelors..." She referred to one young stallion that she definitely would not have trusted to even turn her back on.
