Day 14

When: Mid-Morning
Where: Horse Stables
Rating: PGish
Status: Incomplete

When Xena woke that morning, she found that the city had changed back to a setting she was more comfortable with. It had been that way when she had arrived and she liked it that way. She could relate to it a little better, even if it was more advanced than her world had been. She hadn't seen Argo in a few days and she knew the horse would probably be a little upset at being neglected.

Dressed in her usual garb, Xena walked through the door that magically led back to her room in the other city and then walked outside toward the stables. She whistled lightly, not exactly cheerfully, but somewhat carefree. The stables were open and she stepped inside to a chorus of whickers and neighs. Smiling, she headed for Argo's stall.

The horse had her hindquarters in Xena's direction and didn't seem to be inclined to turn around to face her. "Look, I'm sorry I haven't been here in a day or two." It might have been more than that, but she wasn't going to own up to it. "C'mon, girl. I have an apple! Don't you want a big juicy apple?" She cooed and clucked, sounding much too soft for a warrior princess.

After a long session of cajoling and encouragement, the horse finally turned around and snatched the apple from Xena's hand. Xena grinned and stroked the horse's nose. "I promise I'll visit you more regularly. Do you want to go for a ride today?" The dun colored horse whinnied and nudged Xena's shoulder with her nose. "Good, me too."

Xena had her sword strapped to her back and her chakram at her hip. Her hand went immediately down to the chakram when she heard the footsteps crunching on the hay that lined the barn's floor. When she heard the voice to accompany it, she relaxed a little and turned to see a blond girl speaking to her. "What, these?" She gestured around the barn. "No, just this one is mine." She patted Argo's nose again and then looked back to Rose.

"I don't think you're trespassing. I'm pretty sure it's open like everything else around here." She glanced over the girl and raised a brow. She wore strange clothes, but so did everyone else around here except herself and Gabrielle. She was dressed as normal, battle leathers with a fringed skirt that stopped just above her knee and provided motility needed for her acrobatics and fighting techniques. She also wore knee high boots. Really, the only skin visible was the small amount of thigh and her arms and shoulders. Eh, her chest was probably a little more visible that strictly necessary too, but she covered up more than Gabrielle did.

"My name is Xena, and this is Argo." She pulled the stall door open and stepped inside, pulling the saddle and reigns down from the hook on the wall so she could saddle the mare and take her out for a ride. "I can help you saddle that horse if you want to take her out." She slipped the saddle on, and tightened the buckles, then slipped the harness over the horse's head and flicked the reigns over the saddle horn. She glanced back at Rose, waiting for her answer.
