Reboot was resting. It was time to have his leg reworked, and though he'd been given an easy way to the facility, this time he was taking the long way, the old way. He still wasn't too certain why he'd left the safety of Hawking's Crest, and he somehow hoped this would help him remember. That was a frustrating thing. He couldn't remember, he couldn't even remember remembering. It was as if a large portion of his life was just... missing. A large part of him wanted to know. Perhaps this was why he was taking the long way, connecting through outrealm portals to the Orchard, and from there towards the mountains of Hawking's Crest, and from there down to the valley and the long walk to the medical facility. He got to his feet, his prosthesis heavy and numbing, one of the first signs that it was ready to be reworked. He flexed it and tested his weight on it. It worked well enough, and he started walking. The mountain was windy, which meant it was cold, which meant Reboot was happy. He picked his path carefully, on the lookout for anyone or anything that may wish to pass some time with him. Or be a link to something remembered.

Thundering Rain was out exploring. She had never been in this area and the new sights and sounds intrigued her. She was still rather young and had no idea that it might be dangerous to be out alone. ((Not that anything will be happening to her, but it is a possiblity non the less.)) She decided to stop and rest so she could watch the clouds pass over head.

Reboot picked his path carefully, coming down the mountain where the cross-realm portals dropped him. Somedays, they could be so inconveniant. As he rounded a turn, he saw a young female resting. He smiled at her and nodded his head. "Hello," he said to her warmly.

(( i would play her twin. . . but i'm a lam0rz and haven't named him yet. <<;;; *makes mental note to start searching for sketchpads again tomorrow . . sighs* )) Wandering himself, a huge dark form lurks through the trees, ears flicking sideways at the sounds of footfalls to his left. Orange eyes narrow uneasily as he listens. A pattern of four, with one heavier beat that dragged slightly. Someone with a limp? Not quite. Small wings flick with the same anxiety; he was always uneasy now, it seemed. Even if there was no reason to be. Short white tail snaped from one side to the next, then he eased through the trees, looking for wot was moving throught the woods as well. (( crest.vagueinsanity.net/ier/vol5.html *SQUEES* ^^;; hehe everytime ))

((XD Bismark is happiness in a can. <3 only not, because I don't see him happy as that makes it sound like... >_>; XD))
While watching the little female, Reboot's ears flicked. He heeeaarrd something... He listened silently, not on the alert for predators or anything, just curious. After a moment, his eyes followed his ears, and he was watching for motion, his head cocked in a manner that belied his curiosity.

Rain looked up when the other Naa spoke. She was a bit startled. She thought she was the only one out and about today. . .silly of her.
Oh, hello. she said noticing the strange leg. She hadn't seen anything like it before.

Ears still cocked to pick up on the noise and keep track of it, Reboot turned a smile to her again. "Did I startle you?" he asked. "I'm sorry."

No, I just didn't expect to se anyone else today. she said with a smile. She began to hear something, but put it out of her mind.

((brain: *swats lilu into remembering telepathy* lilu: PAH. *swats it back*))
Reboot looked about and smiled. *It's a pleasant day,* he told her, following her previous gaze up to the clouds. *Easy to get lost in.* He levelled it down and nodded his head. *I'm Reboot,* he said, as if that were something that needed to be said. It didn't, really, and he knew that, but he felt a compulsion to say it.

Dark blue ears cocked forward towards the mental conversation (( b/c that was really useful. ^^;;; )) and the large stallion hesitated at the edge of the trees. It was rather hard to notice him, though the large deep blue Naa with bright, neon orange running stripes seemed a bit conscpicous. Almost as though one's eye would just rove past him. Upon noticing him, however, it'd be hard to forget he was there. ^^;;
He stared blandly at the scene not saying anything, nor drawing attention to himself.

Rain looked at the stallion. Yes, it is a nice day she said and looked back towards the sky. She looked back towards the one that she now knew as Reboot. I'm known as Thundering Rain, but yuo can call me Rain, everyone else does. she said with a smile. What brings you out this day? Hearing a sound in the trees she turns to look, but doesn't see antyhing

Reboot noticed that something was missing. That was after a few beats. Then, he realized that the noise like footsteps had stopped. He broke off his gaze and turned around, first not noticing the large naa nearby. Then, on the way back towards the female, he noticed him. Startled, he took a sudden step back. He didn't say anything, either, but eyed this naa up, using the racing stripes as a marker for where he was. Suddenly, he gained definition of the naa and couldn't seem to blend him back into the background.
He did what seemed natural given the circumstances. He said *Hello.*

Reboot smiled a little, feeling awkward between two possible conversations. *I'm due in for repairs,* he told Rain, lifting his prosthesis in explanation. *And I felt like taking the long way, to remind myself I still know my way around.* He set the metal leg down, and it clanked a bit oddly.

Bismark's ears swept back at the greeting, almost as though it was some sort of insult; he watched the pair suspiciously, finally sending an affirmative to Reboot, much like a computer processor would, nothing more than a signal to say 'yes, i heard you.' He seems oddly quizzical about the interaction between the pair, though he doesn't seem to want to take part in it himself.
