"Would you mind going out to the market and buying me a few things? I have a list and a bag." He said with slightly more urgent tone than usual, though only slightly. "Alright." She couldn't refuse, plus she had quickly grow tired of trotting around the same mansion.
Soon she had her bags and list and was about to leave out before Dominiq stepped in front of her. "However, I don't want you to buy from the market shops like I assume you would." he drew the word 'assume' out slowly. "There's a mare out there with purple, wild hair." Athens fought the smile trying to burst through when she heard the rhyme, she was sure he didn't mean to do that, but it was still hard to ignore it. "She has everything I need and already prepared too. When she asks for payment, tell her that I'll be paying with credit and that I'll have to give it to him over dinner." "That's oddly specific, isn't it?" "I don't have all this money for nothing!" he said. And, with that, Athens was out the door.
Athens thought finding her would be a little more difficult than it was. The mare stuck out like a sore thumb! Dominiq sure was right; her mane was long and had wings of their own, yet tail seemed to be cut short. "Uh, I'm supposed picking up some stuff for Dominiq?" she said hesitantly, used to talking 'formally.'
"So you're his helper?" she said with some sort of accent. It was also casual, more of Athens' speed "Eyup. So where's his stuff?" she answered. "Where's the bits?" the purple-maned pony retorted. "He's paying with credit." "Where I come from, 'credit' means, 'never going to pay you back again.'" Athens soon became frustrated. "He said he would pay you over dinner, alright?" she said and snorted.
This answer seemed to please the stranger as she smiled and gave a slight bow. "Well, I'llmget his order then! Just wait here!" she spread her wings and flew off, soon trotting back with a wagon full of items. /Wait, over dinner!?/ Athens thought. -end-

"Yes?" she said turning to look at him. To look /up/ at him. He tried to bow his head down submissively, but he was still half a head taller than her.
