[b] Sharing the Spotlight [You Will Remember & Nettle]

[Araucana]

[imgleft]http://matope.pixel-blueberry.com/image ... uncert.png[/imgleft]You Will Remember was pregnant. This… wasn’t intentional. Remember was a singer! A star! She had to focus on her, on her goal. Everyone would hear her. Everyone would remember her. Her.

This was a distraction! Surely kids were just gonna slow her down. Oh Motherfather, she was going to get fat wasn’t she? Ugh. My Destiny better still be hanging around by then or she was not going to consider herself responsible for her actions. What if people stopped looking at her face and went straight for her belly? Would people be more interested in her unborn children than her?

Heaving out a heavy sigh, Remember did what she always did when she wasn’t sure what else to do: She tipped her head back and sang to the sky.


OoC: Hi, uh, whomever is willing to bless this silly vain filly of a doe, please and thank you. ;u;
Oh, and her personality is more or less based off Ember from Danny Phantom. >3>;

He also had a way of moving; a slow and ponderous gait that seemed almost pained, his steps slow. Avoiding the mud of fall rains, perhaps.

He turned a look on Remember, and a scowl after it, his eyebrow scales pulled down and bony shoulders pulled up.

"Go home."

“SCREAMING?” You Will Remember shrieked in reply, pitch high and shrill.

“Did you just call my singing, my singing, SCREAMING?” Remember has never been so insulted in her life. She was furious. And now he had the gall to insulate she was trespassing? Even if she WAS (and she doubted that!) she certainly wasn't going to listen to the demands of anyone so rude!

“Who in this swamp do you think you are? Talking to me like that.” Remember stalked forward until she was glaring up directly into the rude old buck’s eyes. “I’m not going anywhere.”

The swamp was a vast place; there was plenty of room for all to live within its bounds. There was no need to be territorial, to drive people off, to shout and shake his head at young kin.

That didn't stop Nettle.

He looked old, and frail, maybe. Except for the fierce, wild yellow glow of his eyes, and the dangerous swish of his tail. He didn't budge as she got in his face, just tipped his chin up and glared down at her. "Then be quiet, at least. I've never met anyone so rude in my entire life."

“I’M RUDE?” This shriek was somehow shriller then the last. She glared furiously into his stupid glowy kimeti eyes that she fought not to squint at. Turning sharply to step away from the brute, Remember flicked her head back dramatically.

“You come over to disturb and insult me during a very difficult time and you somehow think, I’m the rude one here?” She paused, just enough for dramatic effect. “I’m sure you have absolutely no experience with expecting children and all the trials and tribulations that come with them.”

"Of course not. I have some common sense." He narrowed his eyes at her and the glow focused, turned to slits of yellow in his face, dangerous -- though his tone was still blustery and rough, that of an old man. He'd always been an old man.

"If you've chosen to knock yourself up, I don't see how I should be the one to suffer for it."

For the first time since this horrible encounter, You Will Remember was actually stunned into silence. His glaring eyes still didn't deter her, even as they turned snake-like, something she wasn't sure ordinary run of the mill kimeti bucks were able to do. Actually the more she looked at him, the more odd he seemed. But regardless, it wasn't his appearance but his words that cut through her.

It started with a sniffle and then a sob, but then the tears came fast and hot down the sides of her face.

“How can you be so horrible?” She asked between hitching breaths. “Did the Motherfather give you life just so you could be awful to every kin you meet?!” Ah, there was that high pitch again.


@blue
ooc: Can kin even cry really? I was torn between it being more of a human thing, not a lot of other animals can actually bawl like us... though our goats are highly anthropomorphised. -chin tap-

It was infectious. Whatever else Nettle knew, whatever he was good at, whatever he dared to do, dealing with sobbing does wasn't part of it. Instead he just was silent, staring at her, his tail twitching just barely at the tip. And when he spoke again, it was....gentler. Still angry, but hesitantly so, now.

"You came here and started making all the noise. I was just minding my own business."
