ARAXES
tender heart
Oh dear. Oh dear. Oh no. Oh dear.
Araxes stumbled and staggered a little as she wriggled her way out of her little confined area, hooves kicking a little and bucking before she popped free from between the two pillars she'd managed to get stuck in. The sudden freedom had her sliding on the floor with her hooves splayed, wings wide and flapping as her head drew up before she shook herself off quickly, sending her mane and tail flipping and flopping, and her poor wings losing feathers.
The call had startled her from her little reading, mostly in an attempt to figure out why she was feeling a little queasy now and again lately. It was nothing horrendous, but it made her cringe, and she hoped she wasn't coming down with anything.
All the same she pushed herself forward, breaking in to a trot toward where she had heard the call, creeping around a corner almost shyly and peeking with just her head, wings opened and eyes curious. There were plenty of others already there, and it made her all the more aware of how she was late for this meeting.
The most the poor bespeckled girl could do was clear her throat softly and walk in around the corner, her head a little low and a small sheepish look on her face. "S-sorry. I.. lost track of the time a bit. I was reading." She had heard the call and it hadn't processed for a few moments, obviously. All the same, she took a position somewhere near Reich, her head turning to look toward others and her wings suddenly folding very neatly, attempting to tuck away and hide as she shifted, causing the loose locks of mane to fall over them, and her face.
