Individually, we are one drop Together, we are the ocean. - Ryunosuke Satoro Paladin was trying to put together what he was wanting to say to Smoke. She had angered him and insulted him in front of the herd, and he was not going to allow that behavior to run rampant. However, beneath her pissy attitude was a nugget of truth that he very much wanted to address. Why had she not just spoken to him one on one? Why had she not just asked him openly about the confusion she had over her position? Either one of those was a course of action that he could respect, but threatening to leave the herd, even after he apologized and wanted to talk? The warrior could not respect that foolishness. So, with raw burns, he moved to the tree that they had all spoken under before, and he grunted softly, crimson eyes scanning the horizon for Smoke. The sun was barely beginning to rise, casting a beautiful golden light over the grasses and settling in the trees. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself and his conflicted emotions. The stallion was still exhausted, and after the debacle with the dun-child, he was not at all in the mood for haughty, egotistical attitudes. Respect was earned. And he had fought Gossamer for that respect and had the burns to prove it. Smoke had earned and now burned his respect for her, and the dun-child had not even begun to earn it. What a complete disaster. Also, what was with the words about Soleil? She was his second mate, only, and she ruled beside him on the Tides and kept the peace. The mare was highly qualified, but she had obviously done something to these rowdy bunch of ego-inflated equines to piss them off before they had met. The black dun thought he caught a glimpse of the silver mare in the distance, and he lifted his neck just a little, hearing the scabs crack on his crest. "Smoke, I am here to speak if you still want to." His voice was not hard, but it was authoritative. She would not run over him with her pissy attitude anymore.  |
