While she'd been known for a lot of things, being able to be considered 'hidden' wasn't one of them. With her sheer size, hiding took a lot of effort and at times it made her feel incredibly out of place. Especially when it came to big open spaces like the beach. Normally even on days like today, she'd spend it out and about in the forest, but today-- well... Meri felt the desire to see the beachside once more. Thank the stars above that she was able to find a bit of solace in the coastline, a secluded tiny spot where she could enjoy the breeze without the harshness of the sun on her back.
As she moved from the sunsoaked sand, she could even feel the relief of the temperature dropping lightly as she moved under the shaded area, and finally took to the edge of the water-- looking out to keep her eyes peeled for strangers. Unfortunately for her, she knows that in such a situation... well she just looks like a big scary bear, and she doesn't like to be scary.
"Please allow me this day without a hair of conflict..." she would wistfully sigh to herself, trying to just relax.

The world was a strange and unwelcoming place, full of curious tongues and wicked teeth. Grief had never done well with the public, shying away into the shadows of water where he felt best at home. It didn't matter where he found it -- rivers, ponds, the ocean; they all were home, accepting the mighty beast of a creature that he often was mistaken for. Grief never felt lesser than when he chose the company of the waves, never struggling to unfold his words carefully so others might not take offense or lessen his stature so one might not flinch at his size. He was safe here, and Grief wouldn't give it up for the world.
Salt lacquered across his tongue, sharp and biting as the breeze tossed strands of his hair. His head jerked, clearing bangs from his eyes. It was in that motion he caught movement in the corner of his eye, his paws stretching into the damp sand as he felt tension ripple through his body. Someone was here, and Grief wasn't sure if he was welcoming of the fact. A wave rolled over his paws, sinking sand between claws as he scanned the area, gaze locking on...
What was she?
A unicorn, large like he but adorned with more fluff than he had seen in many. His skin felt hot at the thought, briefly wondering how she survived the hotter climates. He debated long and hard on opening his mouth, biting back the desire to leave. No, he had a right to the beach just as much as she. So that left two options: ignore them or announce his prescence.
He made his choice.
"Hello."

Unfortunate... or perhaps fortunate in a sick manner, she can't decide. She does know however that she is not alone now and that she has to make a split decision. She too could either run away, or respond to his greeting with her own.
The end of her dragging tail twitched in anticipation as she does think this through. This stallion was colorful-- the vibrant hues along his coat kept her looking, all to the seemingly terrifying face, until she connects that it's markings. Normally such markings should imbue a sense of warning, but his voice alone lulled her into a false sense of a slight security.
He certainly could easily be different from the many others that she had encountered in her wandering, and she knows that there's always that chance that he could also easily just be the same-- but as much as she wishes to simply bolt -- she does not, and takes the chance to finally respond to his greeting.
Though timid at first, she is trying her best to not be as intimidating or intimidated as she can show herself to be. "H-hello," she would begin, head tilted down slightly in almost a bashful manner, few hairs falling in front of her face. "I hope to not be impeding on your territory-- i-if so, I can take my leave. I-- I seek no conflict."
