People BEWARE: DEVIATION BOOOMB.xD
Finally I can submit all the pictures I drew _{and that are waaaaay behind the deadline.....fuuuuck}..
Anyways... this one..... did totally NOT turn out the way I wanted... I don't like it... I mean I don't like it to the extend that I played with the thought to actually delete it and draw something completely new.. I didn't however because I actually like Leitha's pose and had looads of fun sketching it so.... screw the background....and the balloons... The idea in my head looked better.
Welp this was also thought to be some kind of salute to Saint Patrick's Day but due to our internet issues _{eheheheheeee.. NOT FUNNY!!} it's laaate..
Meh.

Leitha was still a little bit befuddled by the sudden gain of tail length _{(see here for the whole story: fav.me/d5yl5g8)} looked around curiously and sucked in a deep breath, smelling all the strange scents. It sure was exciting to see all the colours in the arena, especially those round, shiny thingies that were floating and lying about the arena. When she smelled her two-legged return to her the mare made a mental note to investigate those bubble things later...if her human wanted or not.
