[open] Uncertainty

[Roseen]

I want to swim away but don't know how
Sometimes it feels just like I'm falling in the ocean

 Roseen giggled at his joke, and found herself averting her eyes afterwards. She couldn’t tell if it was because he was a stranger and she was so shy, or if it was because of how attractive this stallion was. She hadn’t talked to someone in so long. Yet, averting her eyes could be her substitute for blushing. The thought raised some flags in her head. She wasn’t already crushing on this guy, was she? Oh no. No, no, no. She knew nothing about him. Crushing on someone because they were physically attractive wasn’t the way to go. She already knew from experience that never ended well. She needed to keep on guard and put some walls up.

That was herder to do though, for his next words really took her by surprise. She could be a cure to make him forget his problems, and he can be a cure for hers? Seconds after deciding to put walls up they come crumbling down. How was she supposed to respond to that? Her voice escaped her grasp, her mouth opening then closing when no words came out. Well that went well.

Roseen shook her head to clear her thoughts. “My, my. So forward,” she giggled a little, and was slightly confused by her own response. “I-it certainly sounds like a tempting offer.” Aaaaand there’s the stutter. Oh how she wished she had more confidence, and could speak more forward like he did. It would make things so much easier for her. Making friends would certainly be easier for sure.

He spoke again, and her ears perked, facing forward with interest. There were kingdoms??? “Uh, well, that’s what I’m trying to figure out,” she chuckled sheepishly, and was instantly reminded of her troubles. Her smile faltered a little, “As of right now, I have no home. So, I came here to find one. I see there are many paths to take from here, yet it seems this place wouldn’t make a bad home. So, I’m trying to decide what to do.”
