Much as she had expected, it doesn’t take long for someone to appear out of the woodwork. A chestnut stallion suddenly appears out of the trees behind her and, upon noticing her, makes a beeline. He’s confident, but not aggressive, though he’s already beginning to rely on supposed charm.
She flatly ignores the ‘pretty comment’ - it’s disingenuous at best, a flat out lie at worst (she has no illusions about her appearance) - and moves on to his question, which, really, he should be able to figure out the answer to on his own. “I’m here to find a home, as most in the field are.” She feels like adding a question as to his intelligence, but she bites her tongue. He is simply trying to be nice, and it’s not his fault if he’s a bit simple. She could have come across a lot worse. “And why are you here?”
