(Who made the avatar?)
Svartur grinned, his face a mask of pure joy as her beautiful laughter rang through his ears. He kneaded at the ground restlessly and looked up at Kila. “How long do the fights usually take?” He asked the female in a small voice.

(Me :3)
Kila turned form the fight to Svartur, just for a few moments; and he looked...joyful. A confused look crossed her features at this, what is he so happy about, she thought to herself. Remembering the question, she replied "It varies, depending on the males size and strengh. And how bad they want to doe," she murmered the last part, not really meaning for him to hear.

Threonine's eyes narrowed, but then he broke into a smile. He'd gotten exactly the reaction he'd hoped for, and so decided that Kaze wasn't half bad. The large brownish ram definately didn't seem to be looking for trouble, but Thronine could tell he wasn't going to take any crud either. He liked that attitude, made for better in a fight with a rival herd. The Prince sat down, letting his fur lay flat and relaxed.
Just as he was beginning to enjoy himself, he heard Blossom and turned to face her. "Who, may I ask, are you referring to?" He chuckled, "I doubt those two will have much energy left by the time they're finished, and for now they're too occupied ot notice much of anything."

(Who knew reading Danish got German songs stuck in my head? xD)
Secretariat grimaced slightly at the reminder that he's really little more than nobody. He hated it, but there was nothing he could do about it... well, at least there wasn't.... "Secretariat. I- nobody really knows to much about me, it's not just you. And Garnet... Garnet... I know I've heard your name before, somewhere. And welcome, Mercury. I've got plenty to spare." He deep blue eyes lingered on Mercury, his Siv-addled brain sizing him up, just in case, and finding the three inches of height difference slightly deterring. Nevertheless, if push came to shove, he could always use his speed and Unknown form... though....
He sat down, trying to look as strong as his two feet and three inches of body allowed, his hooves digging into the dirt. He didn't know if Mercury had taken Garnet for a mate or not, but he wasn't about to take any chances.

(Because it's similar? xD) Mercury looked with interest and confusion as the stranger talked, he heard his own name once, and dearly hoped it wa sa greeting. He noticed the stare the stranger gave him, and looked nervously away, in hopes of not looking like a threat. He felt as if his fears got confirmed as teh stranger sat down and puffed himself up to appear bigger. Mercury curled his lips back nervously in a greeting(okapi bodylanguage, could be mistaken for baring teeth)

(Wow, lots of posts! XD ) Her eyes narrowed, and as she listened to Blossom, she watched the fight. Alaska's sight trained on the doe, though, as shock radiated from her body. "Sam... I don't really understand how he works. But I understand enough to realize what you just did. Whoever wins this fight will try to claim you. Sam, I'm not sure what he'll do if he wins, but Devi will deifinitely try to add you to his harem." Alaska didn't know what to do, other than to try to give advice to the stunned Blossom. Her cold eyes softened, and she licked Blossom's ear in a friendly way, hoping to try and cheer her up. Just then, a ram walked up, introducing himself. Alaska turned to look at who this Kaze was, and found herself looking at a brown-gray ram, with intricate swirls on his coat. The doe nodded, replying, "And I am Alaska. Nice to meet you." A crowd had gathered, and Threonine came, politely greeting the three goennec who sat together. "Hello, Threonine," Alaska listened as he asked if they were finding entertainment in the fight. Kaze had replied yes, and Alaska replied also. "I suppose, if you like to watch rams fight it out, and seeing as it's the only fight so far, I'd have to say yes."

(points at "Toad has a pea brain" badge, sorry Minnie, I didn't see that!)
"Oh, hello." MilkyWay nodded politely to the two females, and , as well as blinking a sort of appology. She turned to see the fight, watching curiously, "Well, they do seem quite evenly matched. I wonder what Sam would do if he actually won. He doesn't seem to be fighting because he wants Blossom, more because he doesn't want Devi to get her by force... That's gonna be hard for either to win, don't you think?" She glanced at Nixx and then back to the two fighting males.
"Hm, well do you like to watch rams fight?" Threonine didn't mind it. He preferred it certainly to an attack, though both were an adrenolyn rush, something rams need to stay happy.

"Yeah...I think he's trying to protect Blossom. I mean look at the hatred in his eyes. He and the Prime are great friends, but he and Blossom were friends longer so that's what I'm guessing. And I'm wondering the same thing. If Sam were to win, would he take Blossom in, or leave her at dissapointment because he did that for their friendship, making her reconsider saying yes to Devasari." His patience grew slim as he kept coming up with different theories inside his head. He did feel sorry for Blossom. I mean look at her face! It screamed she was afraid for both. He glanced his gaze over at MilkyWay, then took another tug at the grass.

Kaze nodded as Alaska answered, and felt his heart jump for a split second before he promptly disregarded the feeling. The rime-gray ram rolled his eyes at himself, then replied. "You too." Just forget it! he growled at himself, and resolved to do so. He heard Blossom speak, and felt a sense of unease coming from the white doe. He shifted his front hooves, hoping he wasn't the cause. The last thing he wanted to to was make a doe uncomfortable, even one he wasn't interested in. After all, Kaze didn't know if he would participate in that year's Siv. Only, he thought, Only if I find a doe I really like; and if she likes me in return.
The gray male grinned at the Prince's words, and returned his attention to the fight. He felt the the tenseness between the two rams, a crackle of energy seeming to pulse from their fur. This was definately no simple fight--it was serious, and they both knew that. Kaze narrowed his eyes, concentrating on the fight, trying to anticipate who would win.

"Well, I don't prefer it, but it is entertaining," Alaska replied. Poor Blossom, Alaska thought, amazed that she was feeling friendly enough to feel sympathy at the moment. Being in this herd had changed her, she realized. Watching as Devi and Sam dueled, and wondered of the outcome. Suddenly, Alaska piped up, "What do you think you'll do if Sam doesn't win?" The question was related to the fight, but it was most likely not expected. Blossom might not know the answer yet. Alaska just, suprisingly, wanted to start a conversation, if a small one.

Blossom almost jumped at the question, her eyes turning to Alaska. She tilted her head to the side, wondering as she saw the two males lashing it out, Sam violently trying to rid himself of the Prime's weight. There was a chance of Devi winning this. A big chance. Her ears flattened. She knew that when the time came, she would have to go with the winner. Sam had once mentioned to her that when she was finally of age, him and her would have the most beautiful of kids, and she wondered about how much she may just want the gray stag to win. But what if he lost? Would she be able to go with Sam anyways? She didn't love Sam, not in the way she knew mates did. She had seen older couples together, but she knew that she still was young, she could still have kids with who she pleased. She should be happy it may be the Prime, but her mind still roared with the hatred of being treated like nothing more than an object.
Many things crossing her mind gave Blossom an almost clouded look. She had no idea what would happen, and she merely wanted to run away and ignore them both. "I don't know..." she said at last. "Devi will probably keep pursuing, and if that is the case, I don't think Sam will stop, not until it is too late... There aren't deaths in Siv, are there?" she asked suddenly, turning to face the group that had settled next to her, her heart starting to beat faster.

Kaze glanced up at the white doe's question, thinking about her query for a moment. "No," he began, then hestitated. "No--and if there ever was, it would be so rare, such a slim chance at ever happening that I wouldn't worry." He glanced back towards the bucking rams, then continued. "It's a fight. It will end with a winner, but not with..." he paused, then finished his sentence. "Not with death." Helooked back at the other rams then grinned. "Besides, this is a pretty equal match--but they're both strong, and tough. I wouldn't worry about it." The young ram hoped he had comforted her, and not have made her feel worse then she already must be feeling about the Siv fights. He knew that she didn't have to worry, that they'd both be fine. He just hoped he didn't sound completely rude and unconcerned about it, he was just trying to reassure her.

Garnet smiled tenatively at Secretariat and looked away, blushing. It seemed that the Siv had made him, too, doe crazy. "Secretariat is a nice name...No-one really knows me either, Its sort of like my first day," the doe replied. She chuckled softly again and leapt into the stream, her brown eyes scanning for fish. A small, silvery scaled fish caught her eye and in a flash she had it in her mouth. She giggled and grinned at Mercury, placing the fish on the shore. "Oh, Secretariat siger velkommen. Han siger, at han har masser af fisk til overs"(Secretariat says welcome. He says he has plenty of fish to spare) Garnet told him, before turning to the male. 'Have you chosen any females yet? Everyone seems to have gone doe crazy, cept for my friend here. I just met him then, and he doesnt know a word of English...Its a good thing my mother taught me Danish, i suppose!" She exclaimed, grinning widely.
Svartur smiled up at Kila and watched the battle as it raged on. It was sure taking long. Surely one of the males would back down soon. He blushed as Kila looked down at him with confusion, and as she replied he let out a breath. "They'd better hurry up then, seems Devi's in for another fight,"he replied, looking at Garnet and a puffed up male up the hill.

Sec smiled bitterly. "I've been around here all of my life... still no one knows who I am. I'd love to change that, though." He gave Mercury a stare, the other ram's expression almost challenging. "I do hope your friend knows that his expression could cause some charging in his direction." Huffing quietly, he began pawing roughly at the fish with his hooves, making scales fly- with no paws or claws, he couldn't merely slice in, after all.
"No females... yet. I'd rather not be mauled by big old rams that would like any girl I manage to get." He kicked his fish lightly, the small white lie passing easily from his lips. Secrets were a business of his, after all, and he did his best to do an good job when dealing with them.

Garnet turned to look at Mercury and then looked back at Secretariat. "It's his way of saying hi. I really have no idea how he got such strange habits, to be honest," She replied hastily, her eyes widening.
Garnet bent down to her fish and tried tearing away the silvery scales with her teeth. The doe's eyes narrowed at Sec, and she stifled an angry growling noise. She covered up her annoyance with a smile. "I am surprised no females have asked to become part of your harem yet," She replied, finding herself batting her eyelashes and giggling uncontrollably.

Hannie began to feel a bit peckish, and she ducked her head down to graze. She continuously glanced up at the fight, not wanting to miss anything important; this was as good a fighting lesson as she could probably get now that she wasn't on her own anymore. Multitasking, she grazed, watched, and idly tuned into listening to just about every conversation audiable over the clashing of the ram's horns. She noticed the female who caused the fight -Blossom, I think, she thought -looking uncomfortable, and she felt sympathetic. This must be a little bit embarrassing.

Pandora... I understand... I guess? that Garnet speaks Danish out of the blue, but how does she speak okapi as well? That is a form of godmodding, so please tone it down so that the fights and story can proceed accordingly. >>;
Also, there was a post I saw earlier that was only OOC... we have an OOC section, use it.
Last, try to write more. I saw a response that was a twoliner? What am I supposed to do with that? D<
Blossom turned to Kaze, and she nodded, her mind a bit more at peace. She couldn't get over how this was turning out, the two males just fighting it off. "They should be getting tired soon... shouldn't they?" she asked, her ears flattening. She was sure that she wouldn't be fought over again, or at least she hoped not. Somehow however, in the back of her mind, she was beginning to feel that rush of hormones. The part that told her that being fought over meant she was worth something. That maybe she was a proper doe to have kids. And that the Prime approved. However, the shout was still not loud enough to take over, as she looked to the ground and shook it off, not wanting to turn into what Devi wanted at the moment, a hopeless, naive little doe willing to go with the first male that asked.

Sec nodded curtly, continuing to make scales fly as he worked on exposing his fish's flesh. "He might not want to get too close to the herd, then, not with the Siv. A look like that could get him severely damaged. I don't think you'd want that."
Finally, he found his cleaning sufficient, and began ripping into the carcass almost delicately, as if he found eating a fish's guts to be an art form. Naturally, he swallowed what he'd taken before speaking again. "They can't ask for what they don't know is there to have." A bit of crypt, a bit of wise words... there were some days Sec loved being so evanescent.

Mercury did not feel comfortable with the situation at all, especially because he didn't understand a word and that the ram seemed rather... He couldn't really find a word to describe it, he was just very wary of him, maybe it was how the smells had changed recently and the rams had gotten more aggressive, for some odd reason. He decided not to put too much thought into it, and followed Garnet gladly as she caught a fish. He quickly got into the water, utter concentration all over his face, until a large fish came around and he struck. He missed the body and instead got hold of the tail, with effort he hauled it up on shore and stomped it to death quickly. The fright was clear in his eyes, he'd never really gotten used to killing, but it was the only way to get the proteins he needed.
He ate the fish quickly, not bothering picking at it, coughing the bones up again after a minute. He looked over at the ram again, wishing he could understand the conversation "Hvad siger han?"(What's he saying?) curiosity clear in his weak voice.

Kila just nodded, growing tired of this seemingly endless talking. She was fine with Svartur's company, but didn't enjoy all the talking that was coming with it. When Svartur said nothing else she concentrated on the fight again. She had watched many fights; and could usually tell who would win, but this one was much too close. [/center]
