She was cute, in all her fuzzled glory. Kind of like a squishy, fluffy kitten mentally batting around a small ball of yarn - and for a moment, he questioned if that's all that was going on her head. She seemed far too aloof to be... particularly smart. But she didn't appear to be stupid, either.
The impossibly tall stallion watched her eyes drop from his, and focus directly on the closed spines that protected the cavity within his chest. His gaze never left her, staring squarely at the top of her head as she stared at the abnormality in shock or surprise. Switching his weight between his two front hooves, the spines visibly shifted, grinding against one another with an audible, uncomfortable sound. "You're very observant, I see." He was all too used to astonished looks.
However, he was not used to or expecting some sort of small, fuzzy black and green creature to come running up behind him. His head pulled quickly upwards, head craning to look over his shoulder hastily while, out of reflex, his back left hoof coiled upwards and close to his stomach, readying for a kick. But the kick never came (thankfully for Damaris' sake) as the hellhound trotted past him to leap around in the water. A heavy breath was blown out of his nostrils, and his leg lowered, as did his tension. Red eyes regarded the stallion that followed after the canine-like creature with a briefly unamused look. "As harmless as she may be," he griped, "it's never really a good idea to come running up on a stranger who has his back turned to you."
"Tor," he introduced himself forthrightly to both in his presence. His attention rolled back around to the spotted fem right around the time that she uttered the very intellectual phrase about the canine creature. If he had eyebrows, one might be cocked right about now... because there's now way she was serious, right?... Maybe she really wasn't all that intelligent.
And maybe that could work out to be a good thing.
Action. Thoughts. "Speech."
