 Quote: What was I just thinking about? Sticky buns? No, maybe it was hot cross buns.....Yeah that's it! CROSS BUNS! Namely, do you remember that time you saw a cute little bunny with blood on it that happened to be not so cute, but rather a malevolent urban legend that chased you through the woods? It's been a whole year since then. When you come up on a cute bunny stallion and it's cute little bunny friend, you shouldn't worry right? RIGHT?!?!?! But you do, you know you do. When you come up on this "cute"....thing that's blocking your way out of a canyon, you are highly suspicious. And it acts clueless, as though it really has no clue how to do....anything? It's faking right? Truth is it's not faking. It's new to the area and really has no clue about life here. But, since you meet Sans Merci, you're just a little paranoid. Write 750 words per RPer on your encounter with this strange clueless bunny (He's new to the area!) and how you let your paranoia, that this might be another Shifter trap, get in the way. If you want, you can RP the prize as well (who probably has some opinions on how weird your being). tldr: It's how your preconceived notions about someone gets in the way

It was a lovely spring day where the sun was bright in the sky and the breeze had just enough of a chill to keep Kier cool, but not uncomfortably cold as he continued along through the valley and into a canyon of sorts. He had been hoping to scout for a new place to stay for the season, the wandering unicorn always on the lookout for something new and exciting outside of the forest where he had been living for the past several seasons. Some elders had told him about an ocean over the horizon if he just kept continuing south, the stallion more than willing to see if there was actual truth to their words but the sudden appearance of another had him halting in his tracks. While one may have considered the fluffy creature to be absolutely adorable wtih its wide, confused expression and floppy ears the unicorn initially reared back at first sight. Not again! He thought, thinking back to the last time something this adorable had morphed into a creature ready to spill his blood. "Begone, beast!" He called out, the bunny simply blinking as its confusion continued to increase by the moment as the unicorn stared it down. For once though Kier was not joking around and was deadly serious about being wary of the other creature since the last time he was the one who had been tricked into a life or death situation.

Guillermo was a stallion of culture and passion, whose whims were as unpredictable as the skies themselves. For a long while he’d been happy enough in the valley simply enjoy it’s beauties – and oh, what a great many there were – when a noise from below caught his ear. Whilst the Angeni had been languidly flying apparently a scene was brewing below and ever one for a good story, he decided to fly closer-
-Only to be met with a ghastly sight. That thing! It was back already?! And ready to take another victim it seemed! “Keep your distance! It looks defenseless but it’s actually a killer!” Truly it was one of the sickest of games; a vile, nasty creature taking the form of a sweet hare. It didn’t even have a proper pelt this time, but oh, Guillermo would not be fooled!
When he landed near the other stallion he kept his wings outstretched, hoping the sight of them would act as a deterrent. After all, the one true enemy of the damned was an Angeni, wasn’t it?

Kier was already on edge and the sudden booming voice from behind had him rearing up again, the unicorn truly startled by the arrival of the Angeni. Had he somehow come into some epic battle between the creature that had chased him through the forest and another?! If he was on the sidelines then the unicorn would have gladly cheered along the situation, the stallion always looking for amusement, but being in the midst without warning actually did not settle well with him. He loved some mischief, but not when it was his own life in danger!
"I'll gladly keep my distance!" He called out, taking a few steps back and ducking under a spread wing for safety's sake. Normally Kier would avoid Angeni, all that holiness and rule abiding stuff not really working for him either, but after what happened last time...well, it was better to be safe. Still, after a moment of silence he couldn't help peeking around the wing to stare at the bunny. It didn't look quite like the one that had chased him down nor did there seem to be any reaction other than some confused blinking from the creature with those wide innocent and honestly empty looking brown eyes.
"Hmm....do you think...it's actually the same creature?" He managed after a moment, his own confusion reflected in his words as they just continued staring at one another and then back towards the Angeni.

“It’s hard to tell. The fur color isn’t the same, but I’d rather keep it a wing’s length than welcome it closer.” Guillermo narrowed his prismatic gaze on the creature, who looked for all the more just as confused as they, and smartly wasn’t advancing; yet. He didn’t trust it, though. The Angeni had been hoof to hoof with far too many shifters not to let his instincts take over now! It looked the same as the other beast so surely, even if it wasn’t exactly the same, it was one of their ilk!
“It could be faking. Their kind are born liars; it’s easier to lure in prey like that.” And still, even as Guillermo said it there was a part of his brain that wasn’t quite clicking. This hare…this abomination…Why wasn’t it pelted, like the rest of their kind? Was this a new breed or some sort of…unholy cross or just…a whatever? He’d never truly come across anything this weird and now he was starting to get just as curious as he was skeptical.
“I could uh…maybe smack it a few times with a wing? See what it does? If it attacks I’ll kill it.” He shrugged. Seemed logical enough. “If it doesn’t then maybe I’ll uh…smack it again, just to be sure.”

"I see." Kier nodded slowly though he was starting to really think that this bunny wasn't a monster. The other one had only waited a moment to chase him, basically as soon as he came closer to just check out the small bundle of fluff it had reared back and shown its fangs to try and rip into his throat. This one though...well looked more and more confused by the moment as it stared between the two stallions who were also staring the bunny down.
If anything the movement towards the bunny made it take a hop backwards, the brown eyes widening slightly and the movement of its sides as it started to panic making Kier soften a bit more. "Maybe...maybe it's just lost and we don't need to smack it around with a wing. Are you lost little guy?"

“Maybe.” Guillermo murmured. He still wasn’t about to lower his wings, but he did hang back as the other stallion started to speak to the creature. If it really was lost and needed help then it couldn’t be connected with the hare from a year ago…could it? Wouldn’t it have attacked them already? At least Guillermo surely, if for no other reason than to rip off his wings or even to snap this unicorn’s horn.
So, he waited. Patiently providing a unified front of support while also keeping himself on edge incase it came closer.

Kier waited patiently until the little bunny felt comfortable enough to finally nod. "So you are lost!" Kier let out an awkward chuckle looking between the angeni and the bunny. "Well, I'm heading towards the southern shores to go check out the beaches there. You're both welcome, if you'd like." He offered, giving the angeni a chance to tag along for a bit in case the bunny truly was a world class actor and waiting for the chance to destroy them both. Even if it was a normal bunny even Kier felt a bit of guilt for rearing up against the little creature like that, it probably had been given quite a fright and he didn't even want to think about what the angeni would have done if he had encountered the bunny alone. Not that any of them were at fault...it truly was the fault of that damn creature who had forced such wariness in the first place by tricking others and trying to hunt them down. Kier let out a soft snort of frustration at the very memory before shaking his head.
"Either way it's up to you both. I'm going to start going though since I don't want to stay in this canyon until night." The last thing he wanted to do was be out in an area like this when it got dark, just in case there was another type of bunny around that wasn't quite as cute and innocent as this one here.

The angeni felt a sigh slip out of him and after a moment’s pause he tucked his wings in at his sides. Maybe Guillermo had been with his own kind for too long or maybe it was his impulsive nature, so willing to snuff out corruption without asking questions, that could have done more harm than good? It wasn’t as if he wasn’t justified in his panic, and yet…it didn’t help with the bit of guilt in his gut.
His herd prided themselves on their ability to not only track but to dispose of shifters. When he’d come back after having run away from his encounter with the hare…Maybe that’s what hadn’t settled well with him? A ruined pride that made him blind to helping someone in need?
“If you’re up for some company I think that sounds like a pleasant adventure.” He smiled and tried to offer one to the smaller stallion as well. It would be awkward – hopelessly so – at first, but everyone needed to start somewhere. And besides, if there was a threat – which he hoped there wouldn’t be – Guillermo would be right there to handle it.
“You know, I met a mare by the sea once, lovely girl but her teeth-“ And when he moved a wing to mimic her snaggled smile the hare gave a little laugh. He didn’t hear it so much as saw it, but it was a start! So, Guillermo went on about his tale of the lovely sea maiden whose jaw could unhinge and swallow stone all the while enjoying some of the strangest company he could have ever imagined.
