Her attitude seems to be a source of confusion for the going stallion, and she can't help but feel satisfied because of it. Boys should feel confused more often. Still, there is a flicker of something like awe when she sees the gold spattered boy's pelt melt into the multitoned green of seaweed. Quickly, he was as leafy and damp as a real wad of kelp.
The little sea mare walked cautiously closer, sniffing the air around him uncertainly. "Kelp is one of my favorite foods..." She muttered, a little defensively. Her diet seemed to be a bit different than that of the land dwelling horses, but she'd never had a problem with it. Maybe it was something to do with being a nereid, but the extra salt never seemed to bother her when eating sea plants.
She got close enough to touch, nose lightly grazing the ragged edges of his now vegetable mane. While he seemed interested in the leaf that had fallen, she licked his neck curiously, forgetting that she was licking a living, breathing horse. The flavor was like nothing she'd encountered before. Kelp, sure, but there was a definite horsy aftertaste. She licked again, then nibbled a tiny piece. Not quite kelp. But not bad.
Oh, this was absurd. She giggled, licking his shoulder, nibbling the crisp tendrils that sprouted there. Shaking her head, she backed off. "Okay, not bad." She admitted wryly, licking her lips thoughtfully. "You're still weird. But at least I know you taste alright." She added with a shrug. To be fair, she didn't usually check to see if her new acquaintances tasted good or not. But that just seemed to be the way today was going.
