WE ARE THE BEAUTIFUL MISTAKE
Naerys hardly knew what she'd gotten herself into when she approached the dark figure on the beach. He was laughing which, she supposed, was a good sign. Her young mind didn't stop to wonder or worry that he might be laughing for a more sinister reason; her naïveté allowing her to be at ease even in unusual circumstances. So when his voice, rather warm and pleasant to her ears, rolls from his lips and echoes her very question - the girl breaks into a quietly curious little smile. Her teal eyes watch him carefully, if only for her mother's sake. But when his green eyes lock onto hers and a confident, flashy grin spreads like wildfire across his face, any and all hesitation she may have possessed disappears. Surely one so pleasant wouldn't hurt her, would he? No, she quickly decided, he wouldn't harm her; she didn't have to know him to see that.

His introduction didn't go unnoticed but at the mention of adventure, the girl couldn't help but spiritually salivate. The desire for adventure runs deep within her soul, so deep that she finds it difficult to keep herself so contained within the Edge and its borders as her mother wants. Naerys longs to see things, anything at all really, and by now she knows the Edge like the back of her hoof. The misty forest is her home in the deepest possible sense but it isn't enough for her, not anymore. "Adventure, you say? Oh! Do tell." her voice only just masks the giddy excitement that has built up within her. Maintaining her composure is difficult but something about this particular meeting feels familiar. The biggest difference lies in the fact that she's matured, at least to a certain extent.

Before she had a chance to dive any deeper into her own mind, her own thoughts, the stallion shifts and lifts himself back up onto his hooves. He was briefly unsteady, swaying a bit, and without further thought Naerys rushes towards him - rapidly closing the distance with the intent of providing support. Of course, by the time she arrived at his side, the stallion had steadied himself but suddenly, she realized, she was close enough to feel him and smell him. With the aroma of the ocean filling her nostrils and the warmth of his flesh so near hers, she can feel a sudden rush of heat to her face; reddening the flesh beneath the dark fur on her face. For a moment she's still, only her eyes shift to linger briefly on the grains of sand clinging to the dark fur on his side. The girl almost reached for him, nearly attempting to brush the remnants of leftover sand away with the softness of her muzzle. Almost. Instead, Naerys stepped back with just enough time to see him bow.

Princess he called her. And oh, that was so much better than Little Bird. "You flatter me, Caenan." she began rather sweetly, her voice betraying the playfulness that he had brought out in her. "It's wonderful to meet you. I'm Naerys, of the World's Edge." the girl added with a slight bow of her own neck, teal eyes glimmering like the tropical sea beneath the high noon sun. She felt joy, perhaps for the first time in quite a while. So when his demeanor shifted to one more serious in nature, she couldn't fight the grin threatening to curl her own lips. "Oh!" she began, her voice breathy and almost faint with a rather dramatic flair. "It was such a long way. In fact, I'm feeling a bit faint. How will I ever make it back?" and she officially turned on the drama, doing her best to keep a straight face despite the knowledge that her eyes gave her away. Naerys' attention was so glued to the pirate stallion that she hardly noticed the sudden appearance of the gull sneaking in to steal one of her fragrant blooms.

Eventually Caenan's persistence drives the pesky bird away and the yearling bends to pluck one of the flowers from the sandy shore. Lifting it, she extends it to the pirate as a sort of offering of thanks. She'd only gifted her flower to one other before, not that it was difficult for anyone else to stumble across one of her old spots and pluck them for themselves.

SO I DON'T CARE IF IT KILLS ME TONIGHT
