I'm not interested in your sort of challenge, Breeze told Ovela in an overly sweet voice. There had been a moment of gloating there, where she kept Blitz pinned, that he hadn't liked - Breeze was all for daring play, but he couldn't tolerate it when things stopped being light-hearted. And if Blitz was right and she was a sore loser, he certainly had no interest; he liked fun, not fierce.
I've only got a few moves I'm particularly good at, he said to Blitz, quickly flapping and circling overhead as he continued, my usual game is zipping through caverns without slamming my face into anything. But I'm sure if you tell me how this game works I can at least give you a run for it!
BlackIce snorted, a mild grin twitching at his mouth. He took a moment to reflect on how that particular stallion had grown and changed - and then left him to his antics. So long as he didn't start trouble, he could play all he wanted.
Oh, there's no concern over that, he told Ripple, he's had it very clearly explained that while our bonded holds full sway over our homes and has an equal influence in the Wilds, she's granted no amount of influence in the homes of these other bondeds - just as they hold none within ours. As soon as we go visiting we're on our own and she won't even try to stop any consequences we earn; especially from her Clan. But Breeze likes the idea of it. The moment that someone - such as Fyre here - gives him permission to pop over, you can bet he'd be bouncing all over a neighbor homeland.
Chortling, he looked to Fyre and added Don't worry over Breeze - he's yet to break anything, and considering the sort of rush he enjoys that's actually pretty impressive. It seems, as Ripple here has spoken of Shimmer, and as Shimmer is someone I at least know of, that these are more of those that Sunspot called your "bond-cousins." Or ripple is, at any rate.
Looking back at Ripple he said Which means you'd be either bonded to my bonded's neice or aunt; it can't be her brother, as Fyre would surely know you in that case.
He honestly didn't have much of an interest in such things himself; they were other Serians, and they seemed pleasant enough company and a good bit of fun. That was all that mattered. But, as Sunspot had broached the topic with Fyre, and as she'd seemed to take an interest when he introduced them that way, he figured a little courtesy towards the notion wouldn't hurt anything. Hopefully. It was quite hard to tell what would offend some creatures these days.
Of course, that was half the reason he was quite happy to let Breeze take the spotlight; BlackIce may be called Grandfather, but he certainly wasn't the one to take point between the pair. He was more like a nattering old advisor to the force of personality that was Breeze. It worked well for them.
He did find the motherly streak in Fyre somewhat surprising, but then it also seemed to explain her 'extended bonds' interest to him. Maybe it was also a sign of her being ready for certain things once again; he'd heard that she'd had a filly at one point. Perhaps it was time for another.
Now, if you will forgive me, I was just ponderin' a bit and I've a bit of a question, he said, glancing between the two. I've some bondmates that are quite lonely and looking to fill up their Circles - would any of y'all be in a like mindset? For that matter, there's a certain little filly that's ready to do some real exploring; could you suggest some playmates?
Leave it to Grandfather to try and set them up.
