"A Welsh Mountain cross Arab. That was my first pony; when I grew out of him, I got an Anglo Arab. My parents still keep him at their house in retirement."
"Just stuff I would have told a sibling, if I'd had one. Also, if the kids from the state school teased me, then I could talk to someone about it, even if it was just a pony."
"Aww." Athena said. "If anyone teased me, I shoved them up against a locker, and they soon left me alone." She said with a chuckle. "I know your human form regard mine as sort of sweet and innocent, but I take no crap in either form."
"It was pretty much give and take; they made fun of me and my friends for being posh, we made fun of them for being common. But sometimes they'd say something that really hurt; I never showed that it did in front of them, tho."
She snorted. "You, deformed? At my school, they'd be more likely to nickname you 'pretty-boy', and the popular brats would try to date you for your money." She shook her head.
