Eydis | Zaquar | Early Summer
The rainbowed mare shot back as his skull's hot breath grazed her coat, stumbling a bit as she tried to regain her composure. She felt her eyes had gone wide and unblinking only after she felt them dry from not blinking as her heart raced and her mind spun, blinking quickly a few times to moisturize them again. It took what felt like a long minute for her to register his words properly, narrowing her gaze again as she reassessed this two-headed-two-tailed stranger.
.
Obviously, something strange was afoot.

Being around the fae this long, Eydis was familiar with thinly veiled trickery and dangerous hijinks they were very good at executing, so she decided to approach this black enigma the same way. A slight smirk threatened silently on her lips as she played along. "Well now," Her gaze shifted between heads, calculating her next moves with caution. "You can't expect politeness when greeted so rudely." She stepped onto the bank of the creek, her hoof shooting our crackling fractures of frost as snow flurried around her foot before quickly starting to melt.

"This far out in the woods, most of us prefer our solitude. If you wanted hospitality you should've stayed in the city, stranger." Eydis tilted her head a bit as she finished pulling herself out of the stream and onto the shore, carefully stepping to the side of this black and white creature to keep him in her sight as she shook out her coat. Another huff of frost as she turned to look at him once more, raising a scrutinizing brow at him. "Now, state your business or be on your way."
.
A soft breeze pulled through the forest, the trees rattling their leaves quietly as the bird songs started back up slowly around them. It wasn't as if Eydis had anywhere better to be, or anything better to do with her time, but this random being didn't need to know that.
