Starting to grow, and grow up, from her time outside of the forest.


Has lost the hyperactive frenzy she used to feel; now feels more calm mentally, but still projects misery at times. Still tends to be swept up into events easily. An intense being, full of feeling but also unable to manage it. Can become bottled up, which eventually creates a lack of control. Aware of it all; feels she is a harmful person. Able to keep calm more easily nowadays.

Craves excitement and drive, but might not seem excited. Carries a melancholic feeling with her.

Regularly lost in thought, sometimes babbles what might sound like nonsense. Comes across as daft sometimes.

Often blind to stereotypes; doesn't see social circles very clearly. Able to walk up to predators with confidence. Utterly human-like in a sense; doesn't act like a feral animal in most aspects, this included. This leaves her vulnerable more often than not

Edgy around fawns; usually adores them, but wary of her own behaviour around them. Afraid of hurting one.

Suffers from insomnia regularly; helps to sleep around others, but otherwise too anxious.

Somewhat religious; twisted. Cautious anger and fear but belief concerning some generalised idea of a deity watching the forest. Blames them for many problems in life.

---


To be rewritten; the Ginger keeps her past to herself besides the knowledge(told only to some) of her son, and his death. This was caused by -, not entirely accidentally, but also due to Sorrel's naivety. She believed from what she saw that the forest was entirely safe, for herself and her fawn, suspecting at the time that she'd died and was in some kind of afterlife with her dead son. Was instead treated to the sight of his body beneath the bridge after letting him roam around without her whenever he wanted. Things became more confusing to the doe upon discovering the idea of the Twin Gods, for what gods (of what heaven) would let such terrible creatures into their haven?

Promptly lost the plot with her life as things made less and less sense. No longer believed she was dead, but came to be haunted by her son later on. Believes herself to be the true cause of his death (and is partially right) but will probably never tell anyone this; it's easier to garner sympathy that way.

Eventually came to embrace her worries, meeting those who were the ones she initially feared, becoming able to ignore the less pleasant sides to others. Fawn-killers and aggressive males and dainty sisters and all of them, some like an echo of her past, phased the mother less and less until Sorrel was no longer much of a mother anymore, without her son as a hold on her homeland and steady head.

Grew accustomed to the forest over the years, but has never been entirely comfortable in it. Revelled in the opportunity to escape from it when she met Sonne. The wilderness beckoned to her, but it was no longer the same, having grown somewhat complacent. Slowly, her natural state became more realised, losing her antlers before her markings faded slightly. They travelled and discovered a lot, and over time it felt better and better. The past- and it's misery- left her, at least somewhat. But eventually it would be time to return again.

Possibly has a human form (or AU); I haven't really explored this but have some ideas (and her appearance) in mind. This would tie into her out-of-forest adventures.

The forest has not seen her grow physically, having arrived as a fully grown and matured doe. She has developed somewhat, with new features and colors and markings and all of that which wouldn't be found in her homeland. A rather plain doe arrived one day with a plain fawn, and would later leave the forest as a doe with a glowing fringe on her neck, tall ringed antlers, with a forehead decorated with a charm to keep the past well, well away. Appears to be closely related to an impala. A thin slice of a scar sits above her left eyebrow from fighting Velocity's creatures.

A neat stature that fits between the size of a mini and an average deer.
Often feels clumsy and large when around minis, but really has a nice frame; light fluff in areas, growing around her neck where her mane is. Thinner legs than usual, filled-out body while still remaining in an area between average and thin. Pale, lavender eyes give a ghostly appearance to her face at times. Neat and feminine.

Has a new ward was given to her from Verve in order to end her troubles with Yew. It works, and can also protect her from harm at times, but also has side effects; any characters that are dead, undead, ghostly or partially so will be hard to see, varying from a blurry image to near invisibility. Speech will be garbled. Having had it for years now, the ward is now acting as a personal security blanket- would probably be very nervous without it on her person.

I could swear Phai and Sorrel

I could swear Phai and Sorrel had run into each other a few times with Eraline, but I can't figure out if I'm imagining it or not.
In any case, we seem to be running into Sorrel a lot all of a sudden, and she's such a lovely girl. Sticking out tongue

Haha at first I was like "Why has everyone stopped moving?"
And then I worked it out and came back....and then the same thing happened, except that everyone was looking in whatever direction Sorrel was.
Came back a third time and it was still being...wierd. So I just sat down for 5 minutes and gave up xD
Me too!

btw I added you to msn, if you're still accepting contacts on there?

I actually don't list my MSN address anywhere, to cut down on random adds (I used to get a LOT); you've probably got my Email. If you want, you can shoot me an Email with your MSN address and I can add you :3

"It has been far too long,

"It has been far too long, Sorrel.", the huge bison spoke down to his old friend, shifting so he could speak with her face to face. She was probably surprised at how big he was, and he smiled at the thought that she didn't even recognize him. "How have you been?"
Freyja's picture

"Nash!" she exclaimed under

"Nash!" she exclaimed under her breath, keeping quiet with thoughts of the two new fawns. The doe supposed herself so distracted that she hadn't noticed the bison sooner. "I'm fairing well...i'd be more concerned about Herla. Childbirth is not an easy moment." Turning her eyes back to the babies, she gently shouldered her way closer to the bison's long coated body to share some warmth.

He smiled, glad that she

He smiled, glad that she seemed to be doing well. "She is strong.", Nash spoke, referring to Herla. "I was not here, but I heard she did better than normal while having them." Sighing as Sorrel scooted closer, Nash looked over to Lucamo, then to Gehirn, Herla and Johan, who were all asleep. Looking back to Sorrel, even she seemed sleepy and preoccupied. "I've been alright as well..stayed out of trouble; grown alot of course.", he said casually, following her gaze back to the fawn.

"She is...brave. Especially

"She is...brave. Especially with twins." She did indeed feel a little tired, yawning as the comfy spot she was settled in began to nudge her towards dullness "When will you ever stop growing, huh?" It was a gentle tease as she attempted to keep her head up, not wanting to leave him alone in his watch.

He nodded softly, feeling

He nodded softly, feeling lazy and cozy yet knowing someone needed to stay awake. "I don't know, heh. I hope I'm done though.", he said, knowing he was already taller than most. "Hm..tell me, how have things been for you? My life has been a bit boring, to be honest..", he said, speaking quietly to not disturb the others.
Freyja's picture

"You'll be a giant in a

"You'll be a giant in a forest...of giants." She was quite serious, looking in Gehirn's direction with a twinge of nervousness in her eye. "There's nothing wrong with that. Better than being small like me." With another yawn, she rested her head on the ground, still remaining awake. "A bit chaotic. Things usually are. I can safely say that I have never helped myself."

Sorry I missed it!

Nash chuckled to his friend when she reassured him, and he leaned over to give her neck a small nuzzle. "Chaotic? Uh oh--", he said, but cut himself off as she continued. Her comment confused and concerned him, so he turned to her and lowered his head, so their faces were more level with each other. "What do you mean?", he asked, referring to the very last sentence she said.

"I don't know what's wrong; but if you ever need help or safety, don't hesitate to come to me, Sorrel."
Freyja's picture

Thanks Kah! And no worries

Thanks Kah! And no worries Dinamo!

----

Long ears flicking back, Sorrel wished she hadn't said anything, at that moment hating herself for putting any kind of concern onto someone else's agenda. "It's alright! I'm fine." She laughed light-heartedly, truely touched by his worries. "I just mean that whenever something goes wrong for me, it's usually because of me. However, I suppose that is better than it not being myself." She paused to let him continue, appreciating for herself her own words. Yes, that definitely sounded better.

"I...thank you, Nash. I think that'd help me a lot." Her eyes watered a little, before gathering herself up closer. Sorrel restrained herself from becoming embarrasingly emotional, instead giving him a soft nuzzle on the nose before looking at the rest of the group again. Pondering.

"I probably won't be so good on the safety side, but...same to you, alright?"

My apologies for Miya leaving

My apologies for Miya leaving all out of a sudden. I was AFK and in the mean while my laptop ran out of power. v___v
Your lady seems nice, Miya appreciated her company. (:

Woah! I absolutely love what you did with this! I so love that top art too!
And sure, I'll type a reply up right now. ♥ One moment.
------

The Bison nodded down to her, understanding what she was saying; though still wishing that he could help in any way. "Of course, Sorrel.", he growled, smiling softly as he wondered if she could feel his chest rumble as he spoke. He returned her gentle nuzzle with an even gentler one - being older now he knew his own strength and, knew he was fully capable of bowling the smaller doe over even with the smallest of nuzzles.

When she offered to help him back, he sighed and followed her gaze to look around at the other too, also touched by her genuine motherly tendencies. "I think I could handle myself..but, thank you. It means much too."
Freyja's picture

Thanks! I think it looks a

Thanks! I think it looks a lot neater now which is good. It was too messy before. I guess we're done now?

----

"With those horns? I'm sure you could!" She jeered playfully, sighing and relaxing as she began to doze off. "I think that everyone needs help sometimes, though." With the last of her musing, she sighed and gently rested her head against the bison's shoulder, using his coat as a cushion and closing her eyes for an afternoon nap.

It does! The accordians do

It does! The accordians do tend to tidy things up. <3 And sure, we can be done. Thanks for the little rp.
We should do it again though. c:
------

He smiled gently when she finally replied, eyes lazily gliding back to her face. The Bison watched his friend lay her head on his side, and to make her more comfortable he shifted so her head didn't have to be so high up. Once she had fallen asleep, he turned and looked ahead, body relaxed but eyes vigilant.

"I'm sorry I've been so busy

"I'm sorry I've been so busy these last few times we've met." The doe tosses a glance towards the nearby boundary of the birch-filled forest. "Some dear friends have been injured, and I've been keeping an eye on them and their fawns." Phai had really had her hooves full lately; it was nice to finally get a little 'girls' night out' time.
Freyja's picture

"I was wondering what was up!

"I was wondering what was up! I didn't want to pry though," she replied, "if you need any help, just ask." Smiling at the sight of the white doe with them, "The last time I saw her, she was a fawn too. It's strange how fast they grow up."
Phaios's picture

"Their father is... very

"Their father is... very particular on who's allowed around." Phaios heaves a little sigh before beaming at little... not-so-little Idelle. "Isn't it though? I get used to them being smaller than I am and all of a sudden I find myself craning my neck."
Freyja's picture

"Ohh, right. That can be a

"Ohh, right. That can be a good thing, though." She spoke with personal experience that hadn't really ended that well. "It keeps happening! I'll see them one day as this little iddy biddy fawn and then.....POOF." The ginger doe laughed before adding a little bitterly, "It makes me feel old!"
Phaios's picture

"Mm, sometimes." She readily

"Mm, sometimes." She readily moves on to the next subject with a quiet chuckle. "Ah... You get used to it. Although, things have always been like that for me, I suppose... Young ones started out very small, and then evolved and were much larger very quickly. It's an interesting experience, to find yourself as tall as a flower one day and above bushes the next. At least they grow a little less suddenly here." Her tail flicks to and fro behind her idly. "You get used to feeling old, too. Sorta."
Freyja's picture

"Do you remember much from

"Do you remember much from outside of here...?" Remorse crept into her voice slowly. "My memory is fading, I think. I wish it wasn't. I like to know what happened but it seems to be getting harder." She tilted her head a little. "Maybe it's just normal, from being here, eh? And feeling old as well; so many kids around, all the time."
Phaios's picture

She nods slowly. "It's been

She nods slowly. "It's been the opposite, for me. I didn't remember much at all when I first got here, but over time I've remembered it all." Her snout tips skyward, eyes fixing on the sky. "It's hard to define 'normal' here. Everyone is so vastly different... and... giant rabbits." ....Yep, never going to get over that. Phai shudders and peers back at Sorrel. "There's nothing normal about giant rabbits, but here they are, every day occurences." Bleh.
The doe ponders for a moment. "There do seem to be a lot of fawns lately. I suppose it's just that season."


[I've got to head out for the night - work in the morning - but I'd be happy to continue this later if you'd like :3]
Freyja's picture

"Lucky...I can't remember

"Lucky...I can't remember most of my childhood now." She could recall names- Mother, Father, her sister. But things were getting fuzzier. "I wouldn't have picked you as someone afraid of giant rabbits!" The doe giggled without venom. "And giant birds too...personally I think the rabbits are much more pleasant." It was the ears, wasn't it? Much nicer than a sharp beak. "That season, huh?" Sorrel burst out laughing, a little immaturely. "Maybe we have something in common with rabbits then."

(( Sure! Let's keep going ))

"Ah, well... There are days

"Ah, well... There are days I'd rather forget, to be honest, but I've tried not to dwell on them," she answers quietly.
She puffs up a bit at Sorrel's accusation, though. "I'm not afraid," she insists. "I just think they're... strange. And big. And their noses do this... thing." The doe frowns, trying to get her own nose to wiggle as demonstration. She only succeeds in making herself look ridiculous. "...Yes, the birds are worse." Those beady eyes! Augh!
"Ah.. ahm. Well, no... That season was a while back, and it caused this season." It's okay, Sorrel. Phai can't keep a straight face around innuendos, either; if deer could blush, she'd be quite scarlet beneath her fur.
