sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart
She is both embarrassed and gratified to notice the stallion’s own eyes lingering on her own body. She’s never thought of herself as the most attractive mare - not ugly, just not particularly pretty - and it’s nice to be receiving that little bit of attention in return. She suddenly finds herself standing just a little straighter, and flipping her pale mane to catch the light. Oh lord what on earth is she doing?!
Covering her sudden embarrassment, she dips her head as he launches into a description of Beqanna. “Oh my, it all sounds so big and complicated.” A bit much for a tiny little mare like herself - she’d get lost in all the kerfuffle. And magic?! It sounds all a little over her head.
He mentions herds then, and her ears perk slightly. There were herds back home, and Fynn says that the ones here are smaller than the kingdoms - surely that would be a better place for her to start? A much better way to ease herself into a new land. “Maybe a herd then. I think a Kingdom would simply be far too much for me.” Not to mention the fact that they’re probably full of all the larger horses that she can see about the field. That would be more than a little intimidating.
Finally he moves on to her question, and her brown eyes light up at his answer. There are more small horses here?! “I think I would like that. It would be a bit comforting, to be around more horses my size.” She certainly misses being surrounded by horses closer to her own size.
