Sleepy Fox Hollow will you sing for me, even when i'm gone?

the stallion flinches back a half step when colosseum lifts, ears flattening just for a blink. the sun cuts across that wild rise, hooves flashing, tail flaring like fire caught in a gust.
his eyes go wide—just for a second. like maybe he didn’t actually think the big bastard would do it.
wolf jolts back a full step, tail lashing once like he’s about to bolt. his legs stiffen, hooves skidding in the dirt, eyes wide and locked on the towering shape of his brother cutting through the sky.
then—
a slow wink, away from the view of the mares.
damn near pissed myself, he mutters, smirk twitching in. then, louder, for the mares to hear: hell, you tryin’ to kill me?! he exclaims, skirting further away.
