Her quarry was within sight, and as far as she could tell, completely oblivious to her presence. Her face twitched into a smile as she prowled closer, closer- it was always such fun to surprise them. He looked hapless as any of them ever did- but honestly, no two were ever the same. Every perplexed prospective parent was a unique beast, with feelings that couldn't be compared or held up to anybody else's, not really. She wasn't a mindreader, not by a long shot, and that was part of the fun of it- learning how other kin felt and seeing how she could help them on their way. How could she help a fledgeling family find its footing? That was her question as a mare.
This fellow was dark, a kimeti, fluffy mane. Would these be his first children, or the most recent in a long line? How did he feel about their mother? How did he feel about being a father? That's what her hunt was, to find these things out. All she knew- the pull she felt- was that paternity was imminent. The rest was up to him.
She watched quietly from the bracken for a few moments more, wondering about what he was thinking, before stepping out and drawing herself up to her full height. She was tall, but hopefully not too imposing. She didn't want to scare her quarry, after all. Gently, she cleared her throat.
"You seem like you have something on your mind, friend."
