Ophelia hoped it was a game, because some small part of her always worried that he would disappear like the rest. Her heart was fragile - having been stepped on and left by so many in her life. All of her friends were gone now except for her sister. Osiris, the half-wolf, the painted mare who left her for a child, Djinn, and so many others. The constants in her life were those whom she admired for their strength and perseverance like Archibald, Gaucho and even Deimos. Together, they were monuments of a former age, standing strong in the face of time and adversity. Ophelia had always believed she would stand there alone... Until now. Lips kissed her backside, and she grunted, ears flying backward as she kicked up her heels. Her softer, doe-like hooves collided gently with a strong chest as she looked over her shoulder to see Torleik there. Apology immediately replaced the anger, and she spun, shoving her nose lovingly into his hair. "I am so sorry," she said. "You snuck up on me." Phi then backed away a little, letting him approach and brush along her neck, offering a small smile as recompense for her actions. He spoke about where he had been - scouting ahead - and she bowed her neck to lightly brush off the snow she had kicked onto his broad chest. Ophelia then nibbled up his shoulder to his thick, dark hair, eyes shimmering in the fading forever winter light. All of her worries and cares melted away like the snow in the summer sun, and she circled his orbit with her heart. "You can tell me about your scouting later," she muttered, working up to one of his fuzzy, velvet ears to nibble at it affectionately. Phi saw Tinek's shadow circle overhead, a comfort as she clamped her teeth around one of his messy braids to pull the dark stallion into the dense thicket of the woods. She knew that they would have to return to civilization eventually, but she wanted to enjoy every moment along the way. If she learned one thing, it was that life could be fleeting. Tomorrow, she could be struck down by lightning or Torleik could cease to exist entirely. But today... she still had today. "I love you," she whispered, tucking her neck up under his and looking into his blue gaze openly. You know I'm trying to believe that you're never gonna leave... |
 Undertow has come to take me. Guided by the blazing sun. Look at everything around us. Look at everything we've done. Please. Anyone. I don't think I can save myself. I'm drowning. |
