Description
Vanessa tightens her grip on the squirrel, head held low. She genuinely hopes that none of her fangs are showing as she picks her way through the herd. In her head she goes over the list of what she's doing right: Gift offering, well-groomed coat, and pretty macaw feather. All set. Her head drops even lower as the horses part out of her way. There he is in all of his full serpentine glory...herd leader Drake . Vanessa admires him for a minute before inching forward.

"Greetings Venessa." Drake acknowledges her presence, glancing at the squirrel curiously.

"My liege. I'm pleased to see your safe return." Vanessa averts her eyes and dips her head respectfully, resisting the urge to lick his chin submissively. Horses don't do that stupid! "Here, this is for you."

Drake takes the squirrel graciously. Maybe he'll eat it, maybe not. "Please. There's no need for formalities! Or gifts really."

Vanessa shrugs helplessly. "That's...not quite why I'm here. The gift is necessary." She waits for him to say something but he tilts his head as if he wanted her to carry on. The predatory mare takes a deep breath. "I'm sorry for ruining Lady's reputation! There. It was really none of my business, but you not knowing something so important about your closest herd member sort of drove me nuts. But I regret it now, and will never do something like that again. Not unless you ask for more information about something first." She shudders and looks away again. Drake deserves a much better, much more loyal mare. One that supports his travels and awaits their foals with patience instead of hooking up with nearby stallions. That's just her opinion however!

"Oh that? We're already over it. I was bound to find out anyway Vanessa." Drake has bitten the squirrel in half during her little apology speech and is loudly crunching on a leg bone. He then regards her suspiciously. "Hmm, I just realized that a regular horse like you would never have the guts to kill something like this. Was this already dead when you found it?"

"Um no!" Vanessa is horrified at the thought of giving him carrion. Someone as hunky as him deserves only the best. Telling him about her not-so-horselike lifestyle would blow her biggest secret...yet at the same time she wants to be closer to him. And maybe it'll help make up for her meddling. "You see, I'm not exactly a herbivore. More like an opportunistic hunter type." She smiles with her lips back far enough for him to see her sharp fangs, knife-like canines, and tearing molars. Drake is paying rapt attention so she opens her jaws for a better view.

"Fascinating." Drake nods in approval. He doesn't seem that worried about it, mostly since Vanessa has not been reported of attacking anyone with those teeth of hers. She's just got a different diet and that's okay. "But I have the feeling that's not the only secret you've been hiding. Why are you really here?"

Vanessa cowers some more. "Weeelll, I might have caught wind that you were looking for suitable mares. So I suppose I'm throwing my hat into the ring. I'm not really into the whole 'close partner' thing, but I would not mind raising a foal or two. We'd stay out of your way unless help is required." She hates to admit that being a harem member is something she'd do. But really she's wanted a foal to keep her company, a foal to show the finest hunting locations to. And Drake has the best genetics from what she can tell!
"Call me a willing vessel, whatever. You'reanabsolutestudpleasegivemeyourbabiesthankyou!" She is thoroughly embarrassed and out of line at this point, so she bows again before galloping off. Stupid Drake and his attractive attributes! Maybe if he had less scars she'd act less like a desperate mare. She has so totally blown it!

Drake would like to play it off as a joke, but Vanessa had gone through the effort of locating a feather to beautify herself. And she doesn't seem to be the dressy type...well! He definitely has an offer to consider.
-------------------------------------------
Vanessa the simp, trying to butter him up with prey and pretty looks but totally messes up XD In her defense she's got decent genetics too, along with a strong body from hunting. That's possibly a good thing I think? If dragon foals are harder to have anyway.
