Ausar

What in the sweet hell was that thing this mare (@aquila) was doing with her face? And was her hind end... buzzing? Ausar's opinion of her went from being "maybe fun" to "strictly friendzoned", and instead of sidling closer like he was prone to do, his hooves remained firmly planted where they were. "De la what now?" he questioned, lids narrowing, but she was already continuing on, calling him something that was most definitely not his name. "......Ausar," he corrected, eyeing her warily. "But if we're going to be cute and give each other nicknames, you're Seapony." Her focus had already been redirected, though, and he didn't waste the time wondering if she heard him. Her face did this weird wet slapping thing, which was kind of gross.

The moment he heard this Kis creature speak, Ausar disliked him. He was far too flamboyant for the midnight's pessimistic disposition, and he was even stranger-looking than the glowing mare the stallion now stood beside. And these morons were falling for this act? Could they not tell how clearly they were being played? Just look at the way Kis flitted around! He was definitely hiding something. Ausar's nostrils flared in distrust, and he snorted loudly, not giving a damn who heard and found it disrespectful. "Uh, no thank you," he told Seapony when she seemed to silently question his intentions. "You-..." But she was already gone. ..Have fun with that, he finished silently, turning his attention to the remaining crowd

He watched in thinly-veiled amusement as the others all plowed into the waves after the strange being, many a youngin' diving in without a care in the world. His eyes caught on one filly in particular, though, as she appeared shocked and began backing away from the water's edge. "Smart," Ausar noted, jutting his chin in the girl's ( @eleanor ) direction. His voice was gruff, and he made no attempt to keep himself quiet, though he had no idea if she heard him from this distance.Seconds later his attention was stolen away by a mare literally on fire in her anger ( @aithniel ). Confused by her sudden appearance and completely unmasked rage, Ausar pinned his ears. "Safe to assume there, darling," he drew out, careful to keep his cords tuned to a vague indifference bordering on boredom, though bright yellow orbs caught on the stallion approaching her shortly thereafter. Ausar nearly opened his mouth to advise against it, but he would be amused to see the big-boned man catch fire, so he remained silent.

The ridiculousness just kept coming. There was so much clamoring to follow the insane critter into the sea that Ausar momentarily forgot he was supposed to be playing the part of a likable man; now he was chuckling - perhaps not as quietly as he should have been - at the gray mare flipping her ever-loving lid ( @nyx ) and racing into the ocean after someone he assumed she cared about. He would have likely been able to get himself back together after that had a literal elephant not moved past him to enter the water. Sheer stun kept him from backing out of the way, even though the behemoth didn't come close enough to be an immediate threat. Ausar had been distracted by the chaos to note who had become said giant, but he made a mental note to find out.

The buffalo ( @albrecht ) was next in the queue, who he'd heard earlier make some snarky comment Ausar had appreciated. When he saw the man pick up a piece of seaweed, the demon shook his head. "I thought there was hope for you..," he muttered, making his way further onto the beach shortly thereafter. There was no point standing in the shallows with the water lapping at his ankles when he was just going to be in the way for all those with half a brain diving in.
