PHAEDRUS
He fights through the abundance of legs making his way closer to his mare. Eyes dance with merriment in the precious moments of their newest additions. They were indeed a happy little group. It works perfectly, he whispers the words into her ear his muzzle traveling down the length of her neck afterwards. Tucking his wing around her body he stands there for a moment allowing them to just enjoy the company. Choosing not to fill the silence with words, or straining himself with awkwardness. Simply taking the time to enjoy what they had. He still worried over her, puzzled over her lack of interest in the others, was it healthy? Was she ok with all of it? He couldn’t fully understand.
But he keeps the silence, peacefully relaxed next to her and the twins that seemed to be more interested in exploring each other and their surroundings than the two adults that were standing nearby. Others had thought that he was a bit of an ass were probably right, though it was something that he never tried to be specifically. No there were only two boundaries that he had, these were respect and loyalty. This is where he found his lifelong satisfaction, if someone dared to disrespect him then he would make sure to prove to them exactly why they had no right to do so, and of course make them pay for their disrespect as well. If someone decided to backstab him, he would make sure to receive payment for his troubles. He was not a creature to be trifled with, this was a good thing, a thing that seemed more difficult for others to appreciate.
Why they couldn’t realize how simple it was to keep him pacified he struggled in understanding. It really was simple, leave me alone, I’ll leave you alone, but mess with me and you will regret it, or if you follow the rules, blessings would be in abundance. Never would he strike a female, never would he try to smart off to someone in authority, never would be take something/someone for granted. His brows furrow in frustration, how would he save Gyps? She deserved to have an opportunity at a lifestyle that she wanted, not one that was going to be forced on her. He smirked for a moment, he could challenge the two faced ass. Yet he never broke his word, nor did he have any intention to. If Gyps hated him when he broke the news to her, he wasn’t sure how he would deal with it.
His tail swishes and he takes a calming breath; his brooding was breaking the happiness of this moment. my apologies Roma, I’m not very good company today. He nuzzles her once more, the affection in his voice coming out with the rolling of her name. She was the only one that he ever allowed himself to shorten the name for, it was an endearing thing that he wanted to do special for her. Why, he could not name, but still he gently spoke it not bothering with the more complicated reasoning that his usual brooding would cause… like that. He frowns again frustrated that his thoughts would not quiet themselves and allow him the few moments of pure presence in such an important moment.
