Pony Name if you win: Brine [Or 'The Brine Wench' if you ask Vex....]
Which parent is raising this kiddo: Due to some unforeseen and a rather
horrific instance involving a drunken late night travelling by boat and mistaking a basket's contents as food, the child ended up in the care of a really shocked and rather inattentive Alicorn by the name of
Vexed Coffer.
Prompt: Brine's earliest memories are opening her eyes and seeing the red head of a rather hungover Vex and a slew of curse words, something about 'not a good hangover cure after all.' From what he's said [whether or not she'll believe it], he spotted the baskets awaiting abandoned on a doorstep and assumed in an inebriated state they held some kind of food, so he'd just picked one up and took off with it before anyone spotted him.
How she'd put up with him as long as she did, she supposed, was only due to the fact she didn't know anything else. Technically her name wasn't even a name, Vex just called her Brine Wench because she was playing in the sea water once and it stuck.
Was she raised with love? Eh. I mean he traded her off a few times for something they needed to travel [something Vex liked to do quite often], but he always stole her back right afterwards and she, begrudgingly, forgave him every time.
He is a lackluster guardian, but a guardian nonetheless, at least until she's old enough to try and find her family on her own, and she has every intention of doing so since he made it quite clear that he wasn't her parent, more than once.
You can only clean up after a sloppy Alicorn so many times before you're sick of it, and luckily it didn't make her anywhere near something like a cruel pony, though she wasn't very trusting at first encounter and hugs were definitely a
no.
She definitely picks up a few thieving tricks along the way, however [and is probably more likely to fit into the Charm family much more easily than the rest, but she will make the effort!]
As far as personality goes, she's definitely tougher than she looks, and not afraid to give someone a good kick for hitting on her and not catching the hint she wants to be left alone. She has never felt the need to lie and can be almost brutally honest, but at least you know she'll never try to sweet-talk you. [something she definitely didn't pick up from Vex.]
