Re: Black and White Hearts [Closed] (Dated)

by Freyia Tue Nov 06, 2012 11:52 pm

Freyia's ears perked up at her response. A large smile crept over her face. She could not believe that this mare could say that to a completely plastered, beligerant, war pony. "I-I love you," She said it again, the foreign words almost making no sense to her inebriated mind. She moved in slowly, almost like before. The only difference being that the mare she loved would not stop moving. She tried to kiss her, but misjudged the distance, hitting nothing but air as she began to fall forward.

by Shady Silhouette Wed Nov 07, 2012 12:00 am

The phrase was said a second time, but it hadn't lost any less impact despite the lack of shock on the black mare's face after hearing it. She simply smiled and took comfort in being in the company of Freyia. Upon seeing the wobbly mare start to fall, she quickly stepped forward and caught her with a foreleg. She placed a gentile kiss on the other pony's forehead. "Be careful now." She said with a slight chuckle in her voice.

by Freyia Wed Nov 07, 2012 11:06 pm

"I-m always carefu-." She looked up into the ponies eyes. She went limp, putting all her weight, and her armors weight, onto Shady. She smiled a big smile. "I -hink i-s a good thing you are here. I guess I-m a litt-l more drunk than I thought." She still had a few tears coming out of her eyes, but the look on her face suggested happiness.

And Freyia plus armor weighs kind of a bit.

by Shady Silhouette Wed Nov 07, 2012 11:15 pm

Shady nearly fell back onto her rump from the sudden weight of pony and armor was place on her without warning, able to fix it and hold onto Freyia before that could happen, however. "I'm glad I'm here, too." She replied with a smile, enjoying the feeling of the white mare's coat against her own. "And I'll be right here if you need help. I'd never leave somepony alone in your state, let alone you."

by Freyia Wed Nov 07, 2012 11:21 pm

Freyia looked up, "See? You aren't so bad as you think." She had been trying to focus this whole time, and finally she gained enough composure to here what the mare said, and reply sincerely. That is what she had been trying to say before. She had known other ponies in the same occupation as Shay, but she was different, and Freyia could see it, even in this lessened state.

As she looked at the mares, her eyes showed an understanding, and did not look like the eyes of a drunkard.

Then, almost as quickly, she snuggled into the mare, rubbing her head on her coat. She can't be expected to focus for too long. She did have a lot to drink after all.

by Shady Silhouette Wed Nov 07, 2012 11:34 pm

"Thank you, Freyia." Shady replied with a faint smile crossing her muzzle. Her eyes slowly moved towards the other mare's and locked onto hers, the look of innocence and understanding only helped to widen her smile. "You...are the first to say anything of that sort to me." She said in a soft tone of voice while leaning closer to Freyia.

She soon herself letting a quiet chuckle escape while the pegasus snuggled her, squeezing her slightly with her foreleg and simply enjoying the closeness. "You're a silly filly. But you're my silly filly."

by Freyia Thu Nov 08, 2012 9:09 pm

One couldn't be sure if Freyia was listening to the mare's words or lost in her drunken bliss. Truth be told, she didn't even know. She was doing her best to focus, but alcohol is one tough enemy, and he does not let up.

However when she said "you are [mine]" Freyia stopped and looked up. No one had ever claimed ownership of her like she was. Griffons had said the same thing all her life, but never had she had the reaction like she had now; she loved it.

Tears slowly started falling down her face again. She didn't know what to say.

by Shady Silhouette Thu Nov 08, 2012 9:37 pm

Shady simply kept her leg around the other mare to keep her close, gently resting her cheek against Freyia. She shifted her position slightly once she felt the pegasus shift as well. Her eyes locked onto the golden eyes of Freyia, but something was slightly off from what she had expected to see. Tears... Had she said something wrong?

Her thoughts raced as she tried to piece together whatever she had done to upset her so. She tried to speak, but was only silenced by her fear of possibly making things worse. Rubbing Freyia's back, Shady finally managed to say ask a simple "What's wrong?" in hopes of being able to help the tears stop.

by Freyia Fri Nov 16, 2012 8:02 pm

The words entered one ear and into a waiting room.

Freyia just stared at Shay, tears still falling. She continued thinking about what she had said, 'you are mine'. Freyia remembered these words said by griffon officers, other soldiers, other griffon children growing up, but those were quickly thrown out. She went through them all then stopped, there was another who had claimed her like this, her mother.

During heavy blizzards, the scared Freyia would run into her parents room. Her father would laugh and go back to reading, but her mother would pick her up. She would hold the young filly close and sing a sweet lullaby for her. And every time she ended it with, "You're mine dear Freyia. Nothing will ever harm you."

Now she was being held by another pony who said that she was hers. At this time Freyia smiled as a feeling of security and warmth washed over her. For the first time in a very long time, she felt safe.

The words Shay spoke finally reached the processing center of her brain. Freyia thought for a moment, the decided on an answer, "You go- any food. I'm reeeally hungery." A large smile had replaced the crying. She left her mouth half open.

Oh yes, she should not have drank that much.

by Shady Silhouette Fri Nov 16, 2012 8:22 pm

Shady simply held onto the white pegasus as she fell silent, the gentile smile on her lips not showing any sign of leaving its place while she had the pony she cared for so much next to her. Gently petting her mane while she seemed to be deep in thought, she stayed silent to leave Frey be. An ear twitched as a few quiet words were finally said by the snow white mare, something she hadn't expected, but something that made her smile grow a little bit.

"I'm sorry, I don't have anything to eat on me right now. But we can go back to the base and get something for you there." She replied in a soft voice. "I'll even pay for both of us."

by Freyia Fri Nov 16, 2012 9:29 pm

Freyia closed her eyes and (made that all too familiar sound for us fans) squeed at the thought of getting food. She drank enough to put a griffon under and all on an empty stomach. She needed food bad.

Still, she didn't want to move, she was happy here, and eventhough all of her brain cells screamed for food, she refused. She didn't want Shay to ever let her go, not yet at least, not while she had no way to support herself at the moment.

"Good, I like foo-." She snuggled deeper into Shay with a content smile and her eyes closed.

by Shady Silhouette Fri Nov 16, 2012 9:36 pm

Shady simply smiled while keeping her eyes on the pony who had stolen her heart. She didn't want to ever leave the spot she was in as long as Frey was next to her, but she knew the best thing would be to get her inside before it got any darker.

"Come on you silly filly, we need to get you something good to eat." She said with a smile,staying seated on the ground for a short moment before starting to stand back up. She didn't move, however. She wanted to make sure Frey could get up, ready to offer her help if it was ever needed. "I'll get you all of your favorite too. As long as they have them."

by Freyia Fri Nov 16, 2012 9:46 pm

Freyia refused to get up at first, digging herself further in. She did, however, sense that it was time to go. So after a few moments, she gave in and started to get up.

Oh gods, bad choice.

Immediately stars filled her eyes and her head throbbed. She wobbled back and forth as she tried to get her hooves on the ground. She shut her eyes and grimaced at the pain.

"I'm ok, I'm ok. I can dooo this." She finally got her balance. She looked like a newborn trying to stand for the first time, her legs spread to give her the widest possible support. She looked up and gave a half smile. "Alright, to the foo-." She stayed in the same spot looking at the ground below her. She did not move.

by Shady Silhouette Fri Nov 16, 2012 9:53 pm

Shady stifled any chuckles that wanted to escape her so she could help Frey stay up on her hooves. Putting one of her forelegs around the white mare's shoulders, she made sure to stay close to her and give her as much support as possible. She stayed in place for the time being, making sure her partner was ready to move first.

"Are you okay? We can wait a bit longer if you're not ready to go." She stated in the sweetest tone she could muster, even if it wouldn't sound that way by a third party. She pulled herself closer to Frey, wishing to give her support in case she needed something to lean on instead.

by Freyia Fri Nov 16, 2012 9:58 pm

"I am fine. Lets go." She continued to stare at the ground, motionless.

For a few seconds.

More like a minute.

"Alright, le-s go." She looked up and started walking in the opposite direction of the base. She was also walking at an angle heading for a building.

by Shady Silhouette Fri Nov 16, 2012 10:02 pm

Shady chuckled a bit as she slowly walked along with Frey, doing her best to gently change their direction towards the base and away from the building they were currently on a course for.

"You'll get plenty of good food into that belly of yours very soon. We just need to head this way." She said softly, giving Frey another soft smile while leading her along down the cracked street of the city.

by Freyia Sat Nov 17, 2012 1:15 am

"food." Freyia followed the herding. She was in no position to fight against the soft nudges of her love. She followed every move she made, like a sheep being herded. Every time she wavered, Shay was there to keep her on track. Frey new what she was doing, and loved her ever more for it. She followed like a good drunk friend, or sheep.

"Are we there yet?" she whined. Well, she was not perfect.

by Shady Silhouette Sat Nov 17, 2012 1:23 am

Shady smiled lightly as she kept her foreleg around Frey while gently leading her along towards their goal, making sure she could keep her loved one up on her hooves if she ever felt she would fall over.

"We're very close, you'll have your belly full very soon." She replied with a gentile smile, looking back ahead to watch the large headquarters building come closer to them. Slowly but surely, they were making headway. The black mare paused at the foot of the steps leading up to the entrance of the griffon headquarters building, looking at Frey with another comforting smile. "Ready to go up?"

by Freyia Sat Nov 17, 2012 1:27 am

Freyia began flapping her wings. "I can go up if I want to. I can do i-." She began to fly a few inches off the ground. She flew with just enough lift to pull her from the ground and keep her a few centimeters off of the stairs. Again she did this while staggering left and right, but for the most part, she made it up all of them.

"yay food." She was sounding tired now, and her eyes were half open. Yet she continued in. It would count on shay to lead her to food, for Freyia kept walking straight ahead, right towards a wall.

by Shady Silhouette Sat Nov 17, 2012 1:35 am

Shady blinked her eyes a few times in mild surprise, taking her leg off of Frey so should fly up the stairs how she wanted to. She made sure to quickly trot up the stairs to stay with her, keeping her eyes on her as best as she could. She smiled once they were at the top, jumping slightly and quickly trotting over to Frey to get her leg around her again.

"Be careful, Freyfrey. That's not the door." She smiled, not noticing herself letting her nickname for the pegasus slip while trying to gently lead her towards the doorway.

by Freyia Sat Nov 17, 2012 1:40 am

"I know that." She was quick to respond. But she really didn't know that she was walking into a wall. Freyia quickly corrected herself and found the door. She let the earth pony lead her to the mess hall. Chow had ended, and the CS's were finishing up the meal. It would take some deal making to convince them to let them eat. That would be up to Shay, as Freyia walked up, grabbed a tray and stood at the beginning of the food line. The cook just looked at her confusingly

Again, it would seem shay would need to negotiate to get food after chow hours, since Frey was inebriated.

by Shady Silhouette Sat Nov 17, 2012 5:27 pm

Shady slowly followed Frey up to the serving counter of the mess hall, looking the cook in the eyes before giving a coy smile as she fell into one of her many characters.

"Hey there big boy, you wouldn't mind bending the rules just this once for two cute mares would you?" She asked, resting her forehooves on the counter while leaning forward slightly. "We just got back from a little mission and weren't able to make it in time. Your bosses would completely understand if it was just one little time, wouldn't they?"

by Freyia Sun Nov 18, 2012 10:56 pm

The griffons rolled their eyes. They didn't care for her cute flertting, however they did have quite a bit of food left over, something their supervisor said not to let happen. So they prepared the two ponies some chow. Handing them the trays, there was a generous amount of food on the tray, including some meat. I guess they didn't think about that part.

Freyia had one elbow on the counter with her head in her hoof looking at the pony as she flertted. While the griffons may not have liked it, she loved it. For some reason she was intrigued by how Shay manipulates others. Her talents and skills being able to influence, something Freyia lacked completely. She let out a content sigh, her eyes half open, and smile on her face. She did not notice that the griffon was holding a tray for her.

by Shady Silhouette Sun Nov 18, 2012 11:13 pm

Shady ignored the fact that the griffons didn't seem to be too impressed with her attempts at toying with them, they had gotten their food anyway. She looked over at Frey and chuckled a bit. "You better get your tray, sweets." She said with a smile, glad that she had gotten a positive response from someone in the room.

Taking her tray of food, she let the pieces of meet on it slide. She wouldn't think of eating it, but she'd rather not get into something with the cook. She would admit that the rest of it looked pretty good anyway.

by Freyia Sun Nov 18, 2012 11:20 pm

Freyia reached for the tray with both hands. Sadly she was reaching into empty air, as the plate was slightly to the side. The griffon let out an irritated grunt. It caught her attention and she recalculated her vectors. Grabbing the tray she proceeded to Shay; stumbling slightly, almost dropping the tray a couple times, but she made it.

She placed the tray on the table across from Shay. She starred at the food fro a few moments then proceeded to take nice small bites. Even if she was a front lines soldier in the griffon army, even if she was from the uncivilized northern part of the kingdom, even if she was inebriated, she was never without manners at the table. Her parents made sure of that.

by Shady Silhouette Sun Nov 18, 2012 11:35 pm

Shady smiled as she looked at Frey across the table for a moment before starting to eat as well. Her bites nowhere near as small and polite at her partner's, but she did her best to at least be civil about it to keep herself nice in the white pegasus's eyes. "This isn't so bad, still better than anything I could make on my own if I had any sort of supplies for that." She stated, trying to keep from just having an awkward silence while the two ponies ate their meal.

by Freyia Mon Nov 19, 2012 8:19 pm

Freyia finished her bite, then looked up, "You can't cook?" This surprised her. She could cook, in fact she was pretty good. Her Father taught her how to as a kid, and as a young adult she was forced to find creative ways to prepare the scarce food she was able to gather. The thought that another pony could not cook hadn't really ever come up in her mind before.

Then a realization came to her mind. Aside from a few times during the war, she had never really known another pony. She primarily hung around griffons or by herself. She never really cared about ponies, until now. This intrigued her, enough to actually sober her up a little. Now all she wanted to do was hear about Shay's life, her likes, dislikes, what she does in an average day. However she had no way to verbalize this yet, so she continued to stare at her.

by Shady Silhouette Mon Nov 19, 2012 10:52 pm

"I can, just not much. I never had much responsibility in the way of cooking for myself while growing up, and once I was in the military, I just relied on the mess halls for my meals." Shady replied between bites of food. "With how little they pay ponies like us, I wouldn't be able to get anything better than what is given out for free anyway."

She had been looking down at her food the whole time and hadn't noticed the eyes on her. Glancing up to begin speaking again, she paused and stared back at Frey for a few moments before giving her a slight chuckle. "Something on my face?"

by Freyia Mon Nov 19, 2012 11:13 pm

Freyia blinked a couple times before responding, "Wha-no. No, just, who are you?" She did mean for that to sound rude, or like she didn't know who she was. The question was more aimed at the fact that Freyia knew almost nothing about her. She wanted to fix that.

However due to alcohol, the question may have sounded odd, rude, and maybe a little hurtful.

by Shady Silhouette Mon Nov 19, 2012 11:33 pm

Shady blinked a few times, the question taking her aback quite a bit despite the alcohol she knew was inside Frey at that moment in time. She paused for a few seconds before eventually speaking up, her ears slightly folding back being her first true expression of emotion that wasn't in her eyes. "W-what was that...Frey?" She asked with a slightly worried tone. Was she really that forgettable? Did she do something wrong to make Frey angry at her in some way?

by Freyia Mon Nov 19, 2012 11:54 pm

Freyia could barely sense and realize that what she did or how she made Shay feel. "Who are you? I -now nothing about you, besides tha- you are in army too." She continued to stare, a small smile on her face. To her this made perfect sense. All she wanted was more information so she could better understand the mare she cared about.

Too bad alcohol is stupid.

by Shady Silhouette Tue Nov 20, 2012 12:30 am

Shady just stayed in her same somewhat stunned state, trying to put the words together in her head. She closed her eyes for a moment as she seemingly shrunk down a bit. Her eyes suddenly shot back open once the realization of the possible meaning on Frey's words hit her, ears staying folded to show her remaining concerns. "Oh. You want to know more about me? Is there anything specific you'd like to know?"

by Freyia Tue Nov 20, 2012 12:45 am

"Usu-ly thin-s start at the behgining right?" Freyia put one FORELEG on the table and rested her head on her hoof. Her eyes were still half open. She was relaxed in this position, her head slightly tilting to the side. She was ready for story time.

by Shady Silhouette Tue Nov 20, 2012 6:47 pm

Shady blinked, smiling as her hunch was correct and she quickly returned to her usual state. "Well, my life story is a bit boring, but I'll tell you the interesting parts." She stated, keeping her eyes on Frey while giving her a smile.

"I was raised by a griffon couple, never having known my real parents. As I grew up, I realized I was good at getting what I wanted from others, and that's when my cutie mark appeared. Anyway, just a few years ago, I joined the military, looking for a warrior's position like what you have...but I've always been an overall weak pony, so I was kicked out of training quickly." Said with a heavy sigh. "However, some wise griffon noticed my true talents and took me into the secretive spy training course. I'm not allowed to say what went on in there, but after I finished my training, I was shipped to Fillydelphia and then I was moved here after when I was no longer needed there."

by Freyia Tue Nov 20, 2012 7:39 pm

Freyia just sat there silently while she spoke. Her eyes studying the ponies every movement while she told her history. It wasn't long, but that was alright, she was young, and the big events were yet to happen to her. This was exciting, the thought of being a young mare again, to experience life like it was new.

And a spy. Well that was kind of obvious. Freyia didn't quite like that part of her, that she manipulates ponies rather than deal with issues honorably. But noponies perfect. If you spend your life waiting for the "perfect" pony, you will die alone.

"Wow," was about all she could say. She was paying attention, but had not prepared what to say when she was done. She kind of just sat there, the same look on her face. In her mind, she filtered through possible responses.

by Shady Silhouette Wed Nov 21, 2012 11:48 pm

Shady simply gave Frey a smile when she seemed to like her rather short story. She had been worried that it would possibly bore her, since she was talking to another military pony after all. After a moment's silence, she decided to speak up with a sincere tone in her voice. "So, how about you, Frey? I don't like talking about myself too much, so what are some interesting things about you? Your life must be much more interesting than mine."

by Freyia Sun Nov 25, 2012 8:09 pm

"I killed a brown bear when I -as fif-een with a sharpen-d stick and my hooves," she said this quickly and matter of factually while she kept her head on her hoof, her eyes half closed, and that stupid smile. It did not register what she just said, not for a few awkward seconds at least.

With the realization of what just happened, she lifted her head up and her eyes got wide, "I, um, wha- I mean, was tha- my life is just normal." She worriedly smiled after this. Through her mind, curse after curse loosed at her. How could she say THAT at that time.

Ugh, never drinking again

by Shady Silhouette Sun Nov 25, 2012 8:19 pm

Shady paused for a few moments, blinking her eyes while trying to register the information she had just been given by her fellow pony. "That...sure is something amazing to pull off." She replied with a slight amount of awkwardness in her tone. She honestly didn't know how to reply to something of the sort. She was expecting the story of a battle during the war or something. However, she shook it off quickly and decided to move on.

"I may not have expected that, but I have to admit it is something amazing. I won't pry into it farther if you don't want me to." She stated with a faint smile.

by Freyia Sun Nov 25, 2012 9:34 pm

Freyia could not believe how much she was screwing up. This was terrible. Slowly her eyes glossed over with tears. Oh no, not again. Trying to hold them back she spoke, "I'm sorry, This isn-t how I usually am. I am bett-r than this." With that a slow tear sneaked out and down her face. In shame she looked down to hide the rest of them. She was not sobbing, just crying.

by Shady Silhouette Sun Nov 25, 2012 9:43 pm

Shady's slightly awkward expression slowly softened into a frown. She didn't like seeing the one she cared for cry, even if it was only a little bit. Keeping her eyes on Frey, the earth pony slowly moved around the table and gently placed her foreleg around her. "It's alright. No need to cry Freyfrey, you'll always be great in my eyes. Tears or not." She said, doing her best to reassure the saddened warrior.

by Freyia Sun Nov 25, 2012 10:20 pm

Freyia did not even know why she was crying. It had to be the alcohol. She wiped the tears from her eyes, but they would not stop. She leaned into Shay next to her, keeping her head down. The soft coat was nice and made her feel better. Then why was she still crying?

She finally looked up and smiled. "I-I love you." It wasn't exactly what she wanted to say, but it worked too. She let her head fall back into Shay and left it there. Her head would not stop throbbing not the room spinning. She did her best to stop the nausea from setting in. If there was anything Freyia would make sure she would not let happen, it was that.

by Shady Silhouette Sun Nov 25, 2012 10:37 pm

A faint smile crossed Shady's muzzle while she embraced Frey, holding her close to her. Giving Frey a gentile kiss on the forehead, she enjoyed the comforting warmth that came from the pegasus, combined the soft fur against her own. "I love you too, Freyia." She replied quietly, resting her cheek against her marefriend with the faintest of content smiles.

by Freyia Sun Nov 25, 2012 10:42 pm

Freyia worked her flank off to not be nausiated, and it was working, so long as she kept her head against Shay and focused on her beating heart. She did not want to move, partly because she enjoyed being this close to Shay, an d partly because she feared if she got up she would throw up. For now all she could do was remain still.

But she had to let her know, "Um, I don'- think I can-move right now."

by Shady Silhouette Sun Nov 25, 2012 10:51 pm

Shady let a nearly silent chuckle escape her upon hearing Frey's words. She didn't want to move anyway. Pulling her marefriend slightly closer to herself while resting her head on Frey's, she enjoyed the closeness. "That's perfectly alright. I don't think I want to move anywhere for a long while anyway." She replied with a smile, gently petting Frey's mane with her hoof.

by Freyia Sun Nov 25, 2012 11:22 pm

Freyia felt herself dozing off. She tried to stop it, but the temptation of beautiful sleep was an allure that was almost irresistible. The only thing keeping her awake was the petting of her mane. She could not pass out and let Shay have to deal with her all the way back to her room. She would just wait here until the nausea wore off a little more then try and make it to the broom closet that was her room.

Just a few...more *yawn*... moments.

by Shady Silhouette Sun Nov 25, 2012 11:35 pm

Shady didn't more a muscle for anything other than her petting of Frey, she was too cute to move away from. A yawn eventually reached the spy's ears, the soft sound only making her own smile wider. She knew she probably should help Frey to bed, or at least offer to, but she was lost in the moment and simply ignored the thought; just continuing her comforting of her marefriend.

by Freyia Tue Nov 27, 2012 9:40 pm

*Snoring*

*Very cute soft snoring*

*In fact they aren't really snores. More like soft breathing sounds*

*Cute Soft breathing sounds*

by Shady Silhouette Tue Nov 27, 2012 9:45 pm

Shady blinked as she heard the sounds of sleep that came up from Frey, smiling softly and letting a quiet chuckle escape her while rubbing her marefriend's back. "Well, I guess that should have been expected." She said to herself with a hint of amusement in her voice.

Staying in place for a moment, Shady eventually began to carefully get the sleeping pegasus onto her back, letting her head rest on her own as a pillow. "Let's get you to your bed, darling." She said quietly, slowly heading for the doors out of the mess hall.

by Freyia Tue Nov 27, 2012 9:53 pm

Snorts and moans could be heard from Freyia as the movement slowly woke her up. Immediately her head throbbed and the room was doing aerial acrobatics. She let out a moan as she tried to figure out what was going on. After a few moments reality hit her, Shady was carrying her. Freyia couldn't believe it. She slide off of Shady's back and onto her feet. She kept her head as low as possible to try and stop the throbbing. "You, don- have to. I am fine, I can ma-e it from here." She tried to stand independently, only to fall right back into her marefriend.

For all intents and purposes, Freyia was now completely blasted.

by Shady Silhouette Tue Nov 27, 2012 10:02 pm

Shady stopped in her tracks as the slight weight lifted off her back, stopping in place to make sure Frey was alright. Unable to completely stifle her chuckle, she helped keep the pegasus on her feet while keeping her eyes on her. "Come on sweets, you can't make it there on your own. And I'm here to help you, because I want to make sure you're safe." She replied, voice sincere as she did her best to comfort Frey.
