His narrow chest puffed out a bit at the grown up thinking he was important. He was important, wasn't he? It was why mother had so many rules for him. Why he was meant to stay within the kingdom unless he was with her. But she wasn't here now, and things were going alright?
He had to admit though, there was something a little unsettling in the way the man was still staring at him. And the particular way he wanted to know where the splashed child's parents were. A bell of warning flickered in his mind at that.
"Mother will be back soon. She's going to give me a flying lesson this afternoon, I'm supposed to be meeting her..." He shifted his hooves uncomfortably, not sure why he had fibbed. Mother didn't hold with fibbing, and he knew full well that his next lesson with mother wasn't until tomorrow morning. But for some reason, he didn't want it to be known that he was alone right now.
His eye drifted over the tall man's face. Something was bothering him. Several somethings, actually. Who was this man? Why did he want to know where mother was? Maybe he was another one of those 'bassador people who kept visiting. He liked what color the man was. It reminded him of his own flashy coat, though solid and several shades lighter.
His half grown tail flickered uncertainly, a vaguely worried look slowly coming over his princely features. "Sorry mister, but what did you say your name was?" He asked again, prideful countenance draining away in the wake of his confusion.
It was often remarked on that the little prince was mature for his age. He didn't feel very grown up right now though. Right now he was rather plainly just a little boy well out of his depth.
