Away from his territory and meddling explorars passing through his vale, he felt more at ease. It showed in his easy movements and rakish behavior that had long been supressed. His gaze glinted humorously as the giggles continued. Rough tones come from his masculine frame as he raises his muzzle to see.
* Glad I can provide some amusement for you, Ember *

Taking his gaze off of Enchanter for a moment, he looks around. He moves out of the shadow of the tree and stretches, his golden coat glistening brightly in the sunlight. Just then ArcticSplendor bursts from the tree line. She brushes past Molten, who barely acknowledges her prescence. She stops when she notices Enchanter playfully pawing the air. She's intrigued by his change of disposition.

*Her giggles stop immediately in stunned silence that he'd noticed her laughter. She hoped he hadn't taken any offense at her girlish giggles.*
~Please pardon my laughter sir, I meant no harm in it.~

He watches Molten for a moment, observing the other's almost drowsy behavior. Then his gaze catches on Splendor as she bursts from the wall of foliage. He knew he had changed mood rather drasticly, but it really was boorish and stressing to be so domineering all the time. The only fear he wanted to induce were those who crossed over his vale uninvited. Turning back to Ember, an aft limb stretches upward to scratch at his cupped ear.
*Ah! No need my dear, if I can provide laughter....I am doing well. *

*Puddle Jumper follows Splendor as she bursts back through the trees.*
*Ember would blush if she could, but her coat is already a red hue.* ~Then you have achieved your goal kind sir, and a noble purpose it is. Laughter is always needed.~

If indeed Ember could have blushed, Enchanter would have been mystified by such behavior. He would wonder if he had embarrassed the stately lass. If so, he certainly hadn't intended. Ebon scepter dips down to idly impale the earth while onyx orbs survey her intently.
* Please, I am no sir, no manner of rank am I here. What haven do you occupy and protect? *

Splendor acknowledges Jumper, spins around and bows to her, then springs off again happily.

Enchanter's gaze was drawn by the leaping flash of the duo that plunged erraticly through the bramble. His eyes glinted in amusement as his own limbs urged to do the same. Raising to his massive pads, he strides toward the giggling Ember, trying to look unmenacing.
* Looks fun... *

*her eyes grow wide at his approach, then she suddenly seems to gather her courage, and, lunging forward to paw his shoulder, she charges off into the woods.*
*Puddle Jumper follows after Splendor as if the grey has a new tail.*

Stunned by her quick movements, he remains still for a moment before bounding off after her. Sinews bunch and gather to propel him over fallen limbs and bunches of bramble. For a time, he doesn't readily pursue, merely reveling in the feeling of having others run near him. Once his pace was in rhytm, his gaze targeted Ember and he surged forward. He tried to make his approach quiet, yet in his pursuing flight, branches broke in his wake.

*Her limbs move easily across the ground as she covers it, bounding over fallen trees and bushes. She wants to take the time to look back over her shoulder, but fights the urge as knows it will cost her time. Ember grins as she hears the branches crackling along behind her.*

*Filled with high spirits Splendor bounds through the forest gracefully. Hearing her pursuers excites her and she moves faster making sharp turns and leaping with more enthusiasm.*

His more muscled frame tended to be gripped at by vines and bramble. Even though he tried to catch up, he gradually fell behind. As the old saying goes," A doe is more fleet than the buck, for she is never tangled by antlers. " He had also allowed himself to become a mite lazy. He had only had to hunt small vermin to keep in admirable stasis, not run around abit after all these fleet females. Thinking that thought, he emits a sharp bark to show he had to slow. Then he settled into a steady lope after reigning in his flying paws.

*Ember skids to a stop in the brush upon hearing his bark. It sounds a bit off, and turning back, she can't see him at all. Hiding behind a large, thick bush she waits for him to come by.*

His pads now flow smoothly over the ground, placed surely by his keen eyes. As such, he made little noise as he stalked through the sun dappled bramble. He doesn't know that Ember was awaiting his passage, but he sensed a presence that was unusual. Stopping amidst the foliage, he crouches low to see what or who was watching.
