Acacia had always been a timid lass, but ever since they left the safety of the herd, she jumped at every sound. The pair had been walking in silence for some time and the leggy mare was thoroughly lost in thought. When Canyon spoke, she hadn't been expecting it. Blue eyes went wide and she literally left the ground for a moment. Acacia knew that she was a complete scaredy-cat. Pointed ears, one dark, one light, pulled back against her skull sheepishly and she crept closer to her childhood friend. "Water would be nice. Food too, I suppose." Ah, but water...
