omg u are perfect to be an icelandic horse - despite being the size of a pony, are still called horses and are surprisingly sturdy. known for their unique gates, including the tölt and the flying pace

Hope you have a good day mate!! :] Care a lot about you and wish you well

HELPPP no yeah um. idk ive made it an event to watch something plane cradh related on planes after watching Society of the Snow while flying over where it happened

HIHIHI 😁😁😁

3. What were their first impressions of each other? How does that compare to their impressions of each other now?

First impressions of each other … oh man . to put it simply cat was mostly pissed at rafa (her cousin) for dragging in some random girl who didnt even know  like… anything about driving cattle/horses especially on sebas’ (cats little brother) first drive . so she was automatically just kind of annoyed by everything shay did a little bit . thought she was a little too all over the place and just another thing she had to deal with on her already very full plate . shay thought cat was lwk a dick but also could NOT stop talking to her ,,,, a little entranced . a little intimidated though. she’s a loser like that she kind of falls for everybody a little bit . ❤️

“now” is hard to define because like … there’s a lot of big shifts in the story and i don’t think any which time is like the “now” of the story bc it goes on for a pretty long time . but like … later on in general? cat appreciates shay’s other traits a little more besides her like nervous-kicked-dog-who-is-also-wayyyy-too-silly-in-the-wrong situations demeanor . she appreciates her resilience a little more and like . notices more about her a little . the details and such . :) . shay sees that cat is just as scared (if not more ) as she is . she gets more used to cats like … quiet way of appreciating people . she’s still very talks but a little more respectful of cats boundaries than she originally was (and cat is also a little more willing to lower those walls for her)

8. How do they communicate with each other? Are there any recurring phrases or gestures unique to their relationship?

how do they communicate with each other? badly ❤️ very badly esp at first they have VERY different communication styles (very externalized and obvious / oblivious vs quiet looks and subtle) . i think okay this is hard to describe bc they’re all in my head but like . the way they evolve over time to slowly like . communicate better is so so special to me like cat being a little clearer with her meaning and shay keeping an eye out for Looks and cat letting shay touch her more just like in causal communication and shay being a little quieter and less everywhere and it’s just . it’s very important to me . i doooo want them to have a. reoccurring thing but i haven’t settled on one yet. 

11. Does one act as a narrative foil to the other? How so?

oh very much so …. it is kind of a Lot to explain if i were to fully go into it but there’s also the simple stuff like just. how contrasting their personalities/ choices are and how that brings out a lot in each other . they’re so much fun ,,, promise (girl who is too tired to fully write this out and also bc it would be too long and not make sense)(not that anything on this post does tbh im very sleepy)

20. what is their best memory together?

ough it’s impossible for me to speak in definitives ever i fear . also the story isn’t fully tightly mapped yet espppp in some spots so it’s hard for me to say concretely …. i think any memory they have together is both something fond and something raw . there is always a win and there is always a loss with them

that’s actually so sweet that made me happy :> def rn too!! lots of fawns about where i am

OH i saw the coolest deer yesterday two bucks with bigass horns just chilling together it looked really cool. i also saw a young buck with one small antler and one snapped antler 😭😭 felt bad

idk if you’ve ever heard a baby fawn bleat oen time i was out walking and i literally almost fell on one it was so scary 😭 it ran up and started just SCREAMING like a weird sheep. they’re really well camouflaged at least?

anyways here’s a deer picture i took a month or so ago
