"Oh, why honestly, I couldn't even tell!," she said encouragingly. Then, realizing how it might have come across, she blushed and hastily added, "Oh, not to say that you aren't improving... Not that I can personally say that you are, because this is the first time I've seen you using your powers. What I meant to say was...you seem very good at it..."

Moonstone had to smile to this, though not in a mean sort of way, as he wasn't offended at all. When Posey turned her eyes down and to the flowers again, he couldn't help but think how sweet she seemed about it all. He stepped forward just a little, not even realising that they were actually standing very close together now.

"Thank you," he said simply, not one to beat around the bush much in any case.



Inside the cottage, Sunlight and the two other mares were now done with the dishes, and the elder mare was leading the other two along outside.

Posey glanced away from the flower(and also, not coincidentally, Moonstone) with a slight blush. She hadn't failed to notice how close together they were, and felt as awkward as a small filly might in her situation. She was afraid the stallion would be terribly offended if she moved away, so she settled for looking back in his direction, but searching around for something else to focus on.

Finally she selected the largest flower she could see nearby and exclaimed, "Oh, how beautiful!", with slightly more enthusiasm than she might have used normally. "It looks so healthy," she added, and bent over to sniff at it.

This was doubling as the mare's own clever tactic to hide not only her eyes, but the rest of her face. If she was lucky, she could stretch the moment on long enough to not look quite so pink when she had to face Moonstone again.

Moonstone had no idea Posey was trying to hide her eyes or her face from him - he was quite oblivious to everything but the fact that she was lovely and he rather liked her shyness. When she buried her nose into the flower, he came closer and reached his own head down to join her in sniffing the flower, curious for whatever it was that she found so fascinating about the plant.

Sunlight was leading the two mares along the path, and the little group rounded into view just when Moonstone's nose accidentally touched Posey's.

"Moonstone!" Skyflier exclaimed behind them, forgetting for the moment that she was not, in fact, his girlfriend but only aspiring to be - she was simply too shocked for the sight which she interpreted as a kiss.

Moonstone jolted a little and turned his face backward.
