Floating Key
unknowingly meeting grandpa!
Automatically forgetting the sea turtle Sarika's bright blue eyes grew wide as she heard her father's voice. "Daddy!" she exclaimed excitedly, giggling when he nuzzles her neck. "I don't need it to be my friend cause you're here!" ever since meeting him Sarika had been obsessed with her father, she loved him, and had drilled her mother endlessly with questions about him. When questioned about where her mother was the filly looked at the sand and dragged a petite hoof around in the sand. Clearly unable to look Astarot in the eyes. "I snuck away while she was sleeping...Momma does that a lot when she's sad" her tone was quiet and sad. "But you're here now so its okay!" she cheers up instantly in a way only a foal can do with her eyes sparkling happily.
"I don't know how to swim" she sighed but laughed when Astarot splashed her with water. Rearing the small filly went splashing into the water, but stayed where she could touch. All fun was gone when the giant dark beast of a man spoke. Sarika froze with wide distrusting eyes, and in a single moment, ran behind her father's back legs because in her eyes Daddy is invincible and he can do absolutely anything.
Sarika gains some courage and walks underneath her father's belly to stand in between his front legs. Sarika had to look up, up, up, up, uuuuuup at the dark stranger because he was tall, yes sir! "Daddy?" Sarika looks up at her father for reassurance. To make sure it was safe to introduce herself.
