mommy.said.i'd.be.beautiful Gnome cont.



She knew what she had with Rougaru wasn't everyone's cup of tea but luckily for them, it didn't have to be. It was just something understood by them and that was enough for her. She was aware that he had his own relationships with the other mares of the herd and that didn't bother her because she knew she was the one not forgotten when it came down to it. She was the one at his side and that was more than good enough for her. He was a lead stallion after all, and spreading his lineage was just one of the many perks. She wanted every perk for him and would help him attain it however she could. She watched with a smirk as Gnome rolled his eyes as he looked between them. She knew she was probably showing her disappointment when he said he wasn't a fighter, though she wouldn't be too quick to judge. Everyone was welcome to their own opinions. She just knew Rougaru expected more from a herd stallion.

He said that he wasn't weak, but that he hadn't been here long and he wouldn't fight when he didn't know what he was fighting for. She rolled her shoulders a little in acceptance. Understandable, in a way. His next words about mares made her eyes twinkle with approval. Ah yes, he knew the true strength of mares. That was in his favor, anyway. As he glanced her way, she gave a soft snort in agreement and stomped her hoof. She offered to give a tour then, hoping that Gnome would go along so she could talk to him without the tension of another stallion present. She knew all that testosterone was bound to make a male all stoved up and tense, less likely to let loose and just be himself and that's what she really wanted, to get to know what Gnome was really like.

Only then could she judge how good he was going to be for Rougaru and the livelihood of the herd. As she brushed past the stallion, she glanced over her shoulder to see him giving Rougaru a respectful farewell. As he turned to catch up with her, she eyed the sweat starting to glisten on his coat. "Don't worry. You'll adapt to the slimate here eventually." She could almost see the tension leaving his muscles the further they went along the shore and away from Rougaru. Good. He chuckled when she brought up a game of twenty questions, saying he wasn't sure he could give the answers she was looking for and now it was her turn to chuckle as she shook her head and made a tsk noise in her throat. "Now, now, it's not about the answers I'm looking for. It's about what I find instead." She winked playfully and swished her tail.

Then he asked if she thought it improper for mares to fight a battle and she tilted her head. She could only assume he was talking about what Rougaru said about his mares stepping forward before Gnome and she gave a snort. "Of course not. I fight because I enjoy it. I feel you can learn so much about another by the way they fight. Their strategy, their strength, their endurance. It tells me so much more about someone than any words they could toss my way." She sighed. "I don't think that's what Rougaru was meaning either. He was proud to have his mares step forward to fight. I think he was just expecting you to man up and do the same, though I understand your reasoning." She let the confession fall from her lips with a twinkle in her eye. "It was an ego tactic, meant to make you feel obligated to out-do his mares. I guess he underestimated your more humble nature." She smirked.

"Now..." She added with a toss of her head and a prance in her step as she turned an inquisitive gaze on him this time. "What are your ambitions, Gnome? Do you have goals or are you just one of those go-with-the-flow kind of guys?"
