"Good morning, mon bébé," she whispers gently to the sleeping filly, brushing her pale lips over the girl's delicate nose. Slowly, she took her time to kiss each of the spots that adorned her face, impishly tickling her into wakefulness. The past few months of their lives had been so terrible and traumatizing that all Soignée wanted to do was to soak in this small, precious moment with her daughter.
Each time she looked at the girl's spotted coat, she found herself grateful that they had survived. Although she had never wanted a child to begin with, she was besotted with Nekane. Everything about the girl was precious, and she would have given her life to protect her. In truth, she nearly had. After the pony had let them all free of the sinking ship, she had hovered protectively over her daughter, standing guard as timbers shook loose and fell upon her back. It was only by the grace of some greater power that they had managed to escape the ship at all, and a miracle that they had made landfall.
Even then, learning to survive and adapt to a land as strange as this had come with its own problems. Soignée had never lived alone, without the presence of a human to feed and coddle her. Learning how to do so with her young daughter had taken more than its fair share of trial and error. There had been multiple close calls as stallions and predators alike came too close for comfort.
A part of her missed the comforting hand of a master, and yet a larger part of her relished in the freedom to make her own choices. No longer did she need to submit to the strange two-leggeds, or to dance and prance at their whim. No longer did she wake in a walled cage, her only sustenance that which was provided to her. No longer would anyone strap dead animals to her body and force her to race small circles around them.
And no longer would anyone force her onto a ship again.
Dragging her muzzle down the girl's neck, she tickled her again, slipping with familiarity over the growing swathes of muscle that now cloaked her daughter's body. No longer was her little girl quite so little, and the thought was bittersweet. Gently she nuzzled at the sensitive skin of Nekane's elbow before pulling away to give her space to rise.
"Shall we see the waterfall today, ma fille?" With a wicked grin, she winked at her daughter. "Someone needs a bath."
OOC: As I wrote this I realized we could easily just have Nekane be a yearling too so whichever works for you better <3 Anyone else wanting to join in let Meggie post first please <3
