I don't have anything new to add, except that I'm pretty proud of this pose, and I think I'm getting better at the rabicano! He looks so sweet. <3



"I love this tail." Ange said, petting Cacalli's curled black tail and then putting it over her head as if it were a wig. Gianni made a face at her, before gently pushing her away from Cacalli's rump. "Leave the poor mare alone. She looks upset." Gianni muttered, crossing his thick arms and giving a little pout as he sized the mare up. Ange took a step back and chewed on her vertical labret, knowing that he was right. Cacalli had barely eaten since arriving at Whispering Pines, stayed away from all the other horses, and was looking slightly dazed and confused. "Come on, girl." Ange murmured, petting her soft nose. She felt the warm breath of Cacalli on her hand, but the mare took her head away quickly, lowering it in the despondent way she had. Gianni shrugged. "Maybe she needs to go back." He suggested, looking around at all the other horses. The Spotted Woodlanders had been bred here and were quite comfortable, and the rest of the horses were Hollow Grove stock and already were comfortable with one another. Cacalli was alone and simply wasn't fitting in. Ange shot Gianni a withering look as he suggested they return her. "No, we get another one!" She declared, loud enough to make Cacalli flinch and a few of the others look up. Gianni clearly resisted face-palming and just shook his head. "Whatever you think is best." He muttered, rolling his dark eyes.

Angelina got on the computer and began looking through Top Creek Stables' available stock. She had had a dream about a double dilute stallion a few nights previously, and he was haunting her even though she couldn't remember any breed or other specifications about him. She knew it was important though. There needed to be more double dilute in her life. "What about him?" Gianni said over her shoulder, pointing at a perlino stallion who was grazing on Ireland's lovely green grass. "Why can't they just speak Gaelic Horse to one another and get along?" Ange had said previously, reminded by the grass, when one of Jamison's mares had aimed a kick at Cacalli's head. Gianni had sighed in disgust and walked away. There was no helping her.

"He's beautiful! He's not gelded though. I don't need a host of little Ceimards and Mixed Woodlanders all over Whispering Pines." Ange said, and Gianni shrugged. "That can easily be remedied." He pointed out, and she shrugged, nodding. "It'd be a shame to remove his gene pool from the world though." "You could just collect some straws and freeze them until necessary."

Ange considered this, and then clapped Gianni on the back. "Amazing idea. That's your job when he gets here! Thanks for volunteering. I"m going to go call them." With that, Ange took her computer into the other room to Skype Top Creek Stables about their available perlino stallion, and Gianni was left kicking himself. He hated being on what Ange called 'sperm duty'.

In a few weeks, the stallion arrived at Whispering Pines and was not looking good. His beautiful green eyes were glazed over and dead looking, his head held low and his tail barely curled, as if he had no strength to hold it up. "There was somethin' passing between the horses on the way over here." The man who delivered him said, shrugging and looking at Ange as if she was going to leap on him and tear his head off personally. "We don't know, we just deliver." He muttered, before pulling the half-dead horse out of the trailer and driving off. "What are we going to do with him?" Ange asked, and Gianni pointed to one of the far-off stables. "Quarantine him." The pair started walking the horse down the trail, but before anyone could hold her back, Cacalli came to the fence and reached her long neck over, touching the stallion's drooping ear. He flinched, and then lifted his head up a bit, before nickering at Cacalli and blinking. After a few blinks, it seemed the film was lifted from his eyes, and both of them were showing signs of life. "What just happened here?" Gianni asked, still insisting on putting the new stallion in quarantine. "She whispered something in his ear." Ange said. "Like a prayer."

He recovered within the day of his mystery illness, and Cacalli seemed anxious for him to return. In a few days, straws were collected and frozen and the stallion was gelded and returned to his 'wife' as Ange referred to Cacalli. They stayed next to one another for the most part, though it was clear that Cacalli needed Wisp more than he needed her, but he stayed beside her anyway, putting up with her nagging and mare-moods. "They're adorable together." Ange decided, sighing a little bit as she leaned on the fence. Gianni couldn't help but agree.




Name:// WB Whispered Prayers
Barn Name:// Wisp

Markings:// Rabicano, Snip, Front Coronets
Discipline:// Halter, Reining, Western Pleasure and Equitation

Breeder:// Unknown

Personality Archetype:// The Softie
Personality:// Wisp is an intelligent and seemingly caring horse. He is attentive to the other horses, though not pushy in his attentions, and is particularly interested in the goings on of humans. He is one of the first to the fence to see what is going on in the world, and is eager to be taken out and used. Wisp is a little flighty, however, so it's better to use him in an indoor arena away from the scariness of the outside. He takes orders very easily and doesn't try to fight his rider at all along the way. In the pasture, his relationship with the other horses is the same way. He'd sooner back down from a fight than get involved. Wisp is a charmer and especially seems to like the mares, including his Ceimard companion Cacalli, even though she seems to use him and not care for him much.
Background:// Wisp was imported from Top Creek Stables as a companion to Cacalli
