Vesas took a deep breath. He patched things up with Phoenix, something he was relieved about but now he had to find his other friends and make amends with them.It didn't take him long to catch Kerwin's sent. Upon finding him he slowed to a gentle trot then stopped a few feet away. "Kerwin..can we..talk?" he asked nodding his head in greeting though it was lower than usual.

At the other's words, the masked stag snapped out of his trance. He flicked his ears, his eyes searching the other male for clues to his name. Who was he? Why did he know his- the scent struck him, something vaguely familiar about it that he couldn't quite place. Wait....that..that fawn he had once tried to get to know. That seemed like a million years ago. Back when everything was shaky, but stable. What was his name....
"Vesas..." he murmured finally, taking a step back, "You certainly sprouted up from a little fawn, haven't you..."
Vesas made a sideways smile and nodded,"Yeah..."he began but the words caught in his throat and the stag went silent for a while. "Kerwin..I know..I really didn't get to know you that well but...I want to apologize for my behavior as of late...it has been anything but gentlemanly"he said lowering his head in an apologetic fashion.

The stag nodded, "Honestly, I've been so wrapped up in my own concerns I haven't even had a chance to see you grow up. I should be apologizing to you. For that, I'm sorry as well."
Vesas smiled, it was nice to hear that the stag was not angry with him."No need to apologize, you did nothing wrong. Perhaps now we can get more acquainted" the stag moved closer and motioned for them to sit. "The past is past but what about now? How are you doing?"

The stag complied, allowing his legs to fold under him as he sighed, "Not well. Not well at all. I've made a mess of things, Vesas. Never hide secrets from those you care about, remember that," he went silent, his eyes staring off into the distance for a moment before he shook himself, "How about you?"
Vesas' ears folded back in worry but decided to answer the stags question before moving on. "Well...much has happened but things seem to finally be turning around...Quadda is pregnant."he smiled then sighed,"My adopted son Noa got a broken leg however. Rather skilled for a deer but I worry about him as he grows...he doesn't like to fight. I don't mind that but I want him to be safe if I or Quadda am not there to protect him." he sighed again then looked back at the other stag, his worried expression on his face,"What happened..if I may ask..."

"Congratulations on little one. I hope it arrives into this world happy and healthy." When he went on to talk about his Noa, the stag frowned under his mask, "Fighting isn't necessarily everything, you just have to be smarter than your opponent. About his leg...that's a shame. Hopefully it was clean break." When he lobbied the question back at him, the stag looked away. He could say it, he could just tell this deer he barely knew everything. Get everything off his chest...but no. He couldn't give it to him. That wouldn't be fair. "I...." he was so tempted. "I...it's just crazy things one right after another. An old friend is dying, and there's nothing I can do to help her. Another I was fond of...he's missing...I won't accept what they say, that he's dead. I won't accept it until they find his body in the pond. And I'm pretty much just watching his friend go crazy in his grief..." he sighed finally, "I'm sorry...I shouldn't have told you all of that. You needn't concern yourself with my problems...it just felt good to say them out loud." He hadn't said the root of his problem, but he trimmed around the edges.
Vesas frowned and reached over to give the stag a comfort nuzzle,"I am so sorry to hear all you have been through..is there..anything I can do to help? Anything at all?" Vesas felt he had neglected those he knew long enough. If there was anything that he could do it would make him overjoyed. "I know I can't do much about illness....but perhaps I can try and search for your friend.......or if I can't help in that area...if you need any support come to me and I'll be your listening ear" he said hoping this would help the stag, even if it was only a little bit.

"I appreciate that...I really do. I'm sorry for throwing this at you, when I barely know you, but I ask you to keep an eye out for Zash. I do my best to watch him, but I have to monitor others as well...I don't think he's truly dangerous. I'm just afraid there'll be a time when he'll snap at some poor unsuspecting deer. You can't miss him. His right side is messed up, he's got a crossbow bolt laid across his antlers, it looks like a thin stick with a point at the end, and his pelt is gray. I don't ask you to go out of your way, just if you happen across his scent, if you could investigate for me, please?" The stag looked up at him, hoping he wasn't going out of his way. There was no way for him to help Jester, that was a battle she needed to fight...and Alabaster...if he was still alive, then he wasn't here anymore. He was off in the other world.
Vesas nodded,"I will keep an eye on him of course it is no problem at all" He said his eyes locked on the other trying to read his thoughts though this was not going well. "If there is anything else..now or in the future do not be afraid to ask. Although we did not get to know each other when I was still young I still consider you a friend."

"Thank you," the stag was overly relieved. "Sometimes...I think I can keep tabs on everyone in my herd...I've learned recently that I'm much too old for that. And...I don't have wings." He didn't laugh, though he nodded, "I consider you a friend as well, again, I'm sorry I didn't spend time wandering through your fawnhood. I'll make it a point to watch your haunts, to help you keep your wily little one in line."
I feel like doing an interaction between Zash and Vesas. He doesn't appear that unstable, maybe a little off, but not unstable. Even if you talk to him he's not so bad, he just has his moments.
Too bad he doesn't remember. Akhenaton and him could talk of the good ole days. --Though, I bet they're several hundred years apart, aren't they? I can't remember what his era was...I bet you've told me...-- Just don't tell Akhenaton they were good days. He doesn't see it like that. Zash would and will talk his ear off about technology he might not understand. Lol. Oh...Vesas.
Kerwin was uneasy at his words, but he appreciated the other's trust. He didn't realize how much he needed trust nowadays, "I wouldn't dream of letting you down."
I have been considering whether or not I want him to remember as he really has nothing linking him to it....perhaps if something happens in the future. (he was a roman soldier, his wife and child were killed to force him to join the war) and haahahah I love Akhen OH speaking of Akhenaton I was wanting to rp Aria approaching him to tell him why she is sick one of these days :3
=====
"And I do not want to disappoint you either...I will try my best to be a better friend from now on" he said giving him another comfort nuzzle. He turned his head to look out at the forest.It was quiet which made this meeting pleasant. He sighed softly,"If you'd like, I can sit with you a little while longer"he asked turning his head to the other.

Maybe if he gets Akhen or Zash to talk of their past lives, he could recall bits and pieces of his? Akhen died close to Italy, he was in Greece...Or he gets whacked on the head? oh yeah! I could start one on her bio...
And I'm too lazy to code this right now.
The stag shook his head, lowering it to the ground in a more comfortable position, "I couldn't ask that of you. You've already brought me more peace than I've had in months. You should go back to your mate and child, where you're needed. I'm in your debt, Vesas."
"Alright" he said slowly standing. Before bounding off he looked down at the stag. "Take care...if you need me do not be worried about bothering me. I will help you when ever you need it" he nodded in closing then bounded off back to his home.
