((Woo! Go Foxx that's great, especially for 4am *laughs*. I've been anticipating this sooo much! Luna = love <3... smexy adult form preview? :O I'll love you long time!))
Her vision seemed to sway in the darkness, all this was put onto her now, to deliver the news, to tell the filly what she must do. She felt like a guard delivering a prison sentence, because for Luna to receive her freedom and the wish she'd held onto for so long, she had to make one of the most important decisions of her life. And she knew that the filly would make the right choice in her heart, but it was still so much to ask of someone so young. Luckily for Luna, her mind was on her side, as she was wise beyond her years. Even if she faltered in emotion to herself, Frostbite had faith in her, she was strong enough to handle this.
Tigs felt the presence of the icy mare much before she came into view, nodding her head solemly towards the filly, she gave eyes of understanding and patience. "You not only need answers, but you deserve them. After so long..." She cut herself off suddenly, puzzled, and then seemingly embarassed. 'That is a lot to ask...' She said to herself, ready to let the mare break the news herself upon return.
"Bonding is not a bad thing. Bonders, are what can be bad. This is why you have to be careful in choosing a bond. Bonding, I believe, has been the most amazing gift I've ever been granted, and I've been granted it over ten times now. Every time it brings tears to my eyes and I am honoured to share myself with those who choose to bond with me. Bonding for me, is giving over my heart and soul, my secrets and affection, everything that I can offer, protection, advice, love, devotion. Each and every Serian bonded to me has touched my life in unique ways that are hard to explain. Each and every one to me, mean the world and the galaxies combined. I could not imagine myself without them. For Frostbite... well, she returns..." Allowing herself to go back to a contemplative silence, she smiled to try and cover the tears that welled in her eyes. Expressing such an intimate and personal bond was a very emotional thing. Beautiful, in the same way.
The moonlit mare dipped her head in greeting and tried to remain neutral, though her mind was racing through the conversation she'd had with the elusive dark stallion. "Bonding to me... was what saved my life. I knew Tigs was the right choice from the moment I saw her, which is why I pushed that bitterness away just for a moment, just to see if she would accept me. I was abandoned, tossed aside and broken in my own right... but when I found her, I found the strength to love again. So strong was our bond from first sight that I knew I would never be let down again. I was right, and every day I am only more and more touched by her understanding and affection for me." She paused to consider the words of the others who had explained their idea of bonding, and nodded her head.
"I am one of the lucky ones. Not all Serians are so lucky as to find a proper bond. There are many who abandon, abuse, and ignore the Serians who have bonded with them... and speaking from experience, it could very well destroy you inside. It's a terrible thing I wouldn't even wish upon my worst enemy. This is why you have to be careful, you have to feel that connection... it's hard to explain, but when you feel it, you'll know. It spreads a warmth inside you, like being tucked into the softest bed, by the softest hand and kindest heart. Once you feel this connection you know you could never be afraid. It's right, and you know it is, and you won't look back." She smiled, fighting back a grin at Tigs who had clasped her hand over her mouth in surprise, fighting the urge to fling herself at Frostbite at the same time as she was fighting back tears of happiness. The mare knew her words had been touching, and with one look she spoke to the girl in ways that words could not do justice.
"But now... I have something just as important to tell you. I spoke with your father for a long while, and he told me many things of which I am honoured to have been able to know. But the most important thing he had to say, was that he will allow you to see him... only after you've chosen a Bond. I know he will wait for you, however long you take to choose. And I know that you will make the right choice. I am just as eager for you to see him as I'm sure you must be now, having heard this." She laughed softly, tossing silver tresses in the light wind.
Tigs looked at the filly, admiring her only a moment before looking to the sky and back to those captivating eyes. "Luna... you know that I would be honoured to have you choose me, but even if you don't, know that you can always find me, and we don't have to loose touch. I'll play my songs for you at any time, and you can show me more of your unique talents." She laughed at the memory, so interesting was this daughter of Prophet. "But know that you have inspired me in many ways, and I admire you for so many things. I... feel a connection to you strongly, even though you may not feel the same. But this is the truth from my heart." Her cheeks flushed in embarassment, it was hard to admit knowing very well that the filly may simply not feel that connection with her, and may feel it with another instead. Either way, she was glad to be honest about it.
Frostbite cleared her throat, obviously impatiently waiting to say her part. Though the words were hard to find, once they were there, everything seemed to flow. "I have so long envied the other Serians bonded to Tigs, in the fact that so many of them have a mate, and a child. I have nothing, in the ways of affection from one of my kind. Friendship is powerful, but there is a gap in me reserved for love... and though I thought I felt it once, it was untrue. Ever since, I have been seeking love and wondering what it must be like to be those others mares who experience it in so many forms... Well, I still lack a mate, but I feel like I have found a child of my own at last. You are everything strong inside me, everything I was at your age and more. I do love you like you are my own, and I thank you for giving me a gift that I longed for so much. Now, my offer is to do the same for you. I would be honoured to be the one who takes you to meet your father at last, and beyond that, I offer to be a true mother to you as much as I can..." Her eyes were soft and her body longed to nuzzle Luna, and show the affection that she held inside. But no, she was still going through so much, so Frost would be patient and wait for her to make the first move, whatever that may be. They'd both made their offers, and waited patiently with open smiles.
Her vision seemed to sway in the darkness, all this was put onto her now, to deliver the news, to tell the filly what she must do.
