Mysterious beginnings (open) - Navitas - 03-31-2013 Navitas A icy cold blast of wind funneled down the mountains and into the timeless forest below. Navitas stood in a small grove of poplar trees, her cream coloured banner floating carelessly in the wind. She had not explored this part of the forest yet, and wondered what the shadows of the forest hid from sight. Navitas Lifted her onyx crown to scent the air; there was many scents here, but all of them were old and stale. It was not the scent that she was searching for. Navitas had not come across another equine for quite some time, and her solitary lifestyle was starting to bore her. Ever since her parents had abandoned her in the storm, Navitas swore that she could lead a nomadic lifestyle. But recently she was yearning for some sort of contact with other. This type of behaviour was unusual because Navitas; she always thought that she was completely independent from herd life, and that she needed no one to survive. However, her opinion on herd life was changing and she wanting something to fill the loneliness. The sun was slowly setting on the forest valley, the dying rays crept lower and lower to the moist earth. The rays cast orange and yellow hues on the forest, signifying that the day was at its end. Navitas knew that she had to find shelter before it got too dark since the predators of the night came out to stalk their next meal not soon after the sun went down. Tossing her pearly brown tresses Navitas loped deeper into the lush undergrowth following faint call of birds. Everything around her had taken a magical quality to it, for some reason the femme was anticipating something. Though she did not know what that "something" was, she knew it would be detrimental to the rest to her life. The dame picked up the pace when she saw a small clearing ahead. The grass reflected the sun making the ground turn a golden colour. The clearing was almost circular and was ringed by ancient trees, their branches swayed with the mountain air. Navitas wandered gracefully into the clearing, her footfalls not making a sound, and lowered her crown to graze. ooc: I'm not that great at starting posts :P Word count: 371 RE: Mysterious beginnings (open) - Ricochet - 04-01-2013
RE: Mysterious beginnings (open) - Navitas - 04-01-2013 Navitas The darkened forest fell quiet as the stallion approached Navitas, she turned her amber stare to appraise him, tensing as the wild tawny warrior came closer. She felt herself being attracted to the dun hued stallion; he gave off a heady scent of leaves, and masculinity. The stallion had long blackened scars on his face that made him look intimidating but it also made him more handsome and full of mystery. Navitas turned her bodice to face him directly, her ears flicking back slightly; she was not going to be overwhelmed by the aura that the stallion gave off. Navitas planted herself firmly where she stood, keeping her smoke washed crown high, the fae did not take to being dominanted well and would certainly put this male in his place if she had to. Once she had affirmed her position, she started to study the stud in more detail. He was strongly built, with well-formed muscles that slid sensually underneath his dun pelt. His eyes were very striking teal hue, which she had not encountered on another equine. The dame could see that he was looking to claim her by the way he had approached her with such a strong stance, at least he is honest with his intentions. The temptress, smirked at the stud in front of her, her flaxen banner flicking her sides, this might be her chance to finally join a herd, but this stallion would have to work for it. Listening to his charming baritone Navitas replied, “Pleasure to meet you Ricochet, though I am a little hesitant to give away my name so freely without purpose.” She paused for a moment, how much information should she give this tawny male? “As for why I am here, I was just wandering through this area; the forest is so pretty when darkness descends.” Navitas replied vaguely, not wanting to give away all of her secrets at once. “Why are you here at such a late hour? Shouldn’t you be tending to your mares?” Navitas cocked her crown in wonderment, was this her chance to leave her past behind and start anew with a herd? Or was Ricochet just another manipulating equine with ulterior motives, ready to take advantage of her unclaimed status. Navitas then started to playfully circle Ricochet, looking at him from all sides, he had many battle scars that littered his body, she let her banner brush upon them ever so slightly as she circled. She wanted to know more about this intriguing stallion even if it got her into a bit of trouble. words word count: 426 RE: Mysterious beginnings (open) - Ricochet - 04-02-2013
RE: Mysterious beginnings (open) - Navitas - 04-03-2013 Navitas Navitas smirked, it was too easy to get the stallion going and playing into her game. Manipulating the emotions of males never got old for her, one moment she would be seductive and flirty, the next she would jump back and conceal all of her emotions by feigning boredom.
It was this tactic that allowed her to stay impersonal, you don't have to get close to the ones you play with. In a sense it was Navitas way of protecting herself because after the trauma of trying to connect with her parents but only to be shut down, she became harden towards forming any close relationships. The fae’s ebony washed skin started to heat up slightly at the sound of his voice and his reply, but she was not the type to be ruled by her hormones, but the pull towards this patron was heady and awaken urges inside of her she never knew existed. She squealed and ceased her movement when the male nipped her sensitive skin, leaving a slight stinging sensation, she saw the lust and need glinting in his teal eyes. And wondering if his intentions had changed from claiming her to something more primal. If he thinks I am mating with him he has got another thing coming. Navitas burnt amber orbs widen slightly at his proposal; he wants me to join the herd! Navitas was giddy on the inside but her façade of seduction was still in place. Ricochet gently brushed her tresses with his maw and she shivered in delight. Her reaction was because his touch was the only one she had felt in many season and she relished in the physical contact. But from a spectator's view the shiver could be perceived as lust for the handsome buckskin. “I’m not sure; can I trust a male such as yourself to protect me, what is to say that you will not cower when challenged? I do not want to associate myself with a coward.” The mare regarded him inquisitively; she still was not completely convinced that he was of good and true intentions. Though she wanted to accept his offer right away, she held off to see what he would do if his pride was challenged, especially coming from a mare of her rank, or lack thereof. Navitas let him circle her twice then the vixen wheeled away and trotted just out of reach from the heated stud, she was in control of this game not him. Navitas swished her banner back and forth, and shook her crown playfully, her entire body language screamed, Play with me! Though she was sure he had another type of play in mind. Navitas was set on testing the limits of the tawny stud, and she would get her results one way or the other. Navitas snorted and pawed at the ground as she studied the Stallion, waiting for his reaction, it was then that she noticed that he was glancing over at one part of the meadow in particular, what does he keep looking at? What is over there? The vixen stiffened, a sense of dread washed over her but she repressed it, still waiting for response from the dun hellion. If it came down to it she would fight to defend herself, and she would win. "What is it that you are looking for Ricochet? Am I boring you?"
