Who: Neptune and Epona (Reed and Kenzie)
When: Sunday, March 25, 2012 | afternoon
Where: the track
What: just horsing around (pun TOTALLY intended)
Neptune had no idea he was off to meet a goddess, let alone one worshiped by his people. He simply craved the company of horses. Gone were the days when he watched over the track that included a temple in his honor. He missed that time spent at Circus Flaminius. The masses there all prayed to him, begging for his blessings before each race, hoping he'd show favor. And he did, so long as the equestrians were devoted to him and cared well for their horses. His love for the beasts was so strong, he'd sired a colt with Ceres.
He did not lust for the beasts though, he simply enjoyed being one at times, though that wasn't possible currently, as his powers were too weak to manage shapeshifting in this mortal vessel. Still, his connection remained strong, and it was evident as he walked through the stable, each horse abruptly sticking its head out to examine the man who smelled nothing like a man. They pawed the ground with their shoes, heads bouncing from the excitement. Neptune smiled at them all, giving each within his reach a silent blessing as he placed his palm upon their foreheads. He felt a connection to them nearly as strong as he did for the creatures of the sea.
