Day 233 Video and Action
[Open Video]

[Mal's wearing a cowboy hat and, though he looks a bit hung over, he's also grinning. Every once in a while, there's a whicker that sounds like a horse, and a horse's mane invades the video.]

Did ya'll know we had horses here?

[Private to Bart]

Bart? Suppose I should thank you fer findin' me yesterday.

[That's the closest he'll get to an apology.]

[Open Action]

Mal's pretty ecstatic to find the horses. He wasn't so happy about jumping through the hoops to get the license to be allowed to ride the horses, but any annoyance fled once he saddled one up and took her out. The mare ran quickly and he almost forgot his discomfort of the water as he rode along the beach. Anyone could encounter him either on horseback or later finishing up his ride and taking care of the horse after.

	[He can't quite hide his laughter, though he tries to with his hands.] Only when I have to be. If I'd known you were going horseback riding, I would've snuck in an apple too. Horses like that, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You want Mal... not Peter Pan... cptn_tightpants 2013-08-26 09:53 pm UTC (link)
	Now that I would'a felt. Apples have heft to them. [He leans over and pats the horse's neck.] I didn't know myself I was gonna find horses. Was aimlessly wanderin' and heard a whicker. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Peter Pan's cute too though! c: killerspeed 2013-09-05 12:09 am UTC (link)
	But they keep the docs away! You hadn't been to the stables yet? [Huh, he thought most people had explored the entire place by now.] I pass by it on my daily run sometimes. Haven't actually bothered to ride the guys yet, but they look like they're having fun. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cptn_tightpants 2013-09-05 12:25 am UTC (link)
	Ain't a huge fan of the ocean. Missed the stables avoiding the water. D'yeh know how to ride? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	killerspeed 2013-09-05 01:04 am UTC (link)
	[Good thing Marina doesn't feel like it's underwater! Bart can't help blinking back surprise.] Oh. That makes sense, I guess. Kind of? I tried it once, but it's been a while since then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cptn_tightpants 2013-09-05 10:17 pm UTC (link)
	[Don't even start about the fact that they're underwater. It freaks Mal the fuck out. He chooses to ignore it when he can.] It'll come back easy. C'mon by an' I'll teach yeh. There's a docile mare happy to help! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	killerspeed 2013-09-07 07:19 pm UTC (link)
	You sure? [He's not the world's biggest fan of horses - or any mode of transportation, when he can run faster - but if Mal's good with them, it might turn out okay.] I wouldn't want to slow you down. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cptn_tightpants 2013-09-08 10:23 pm UTC (link)
	Don't slow me down none. The horses need riders. I can't ride 'em all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	killerspeed 2013-09-15 02:38 am UTC (link)
	I'd hope not, man! Can you imagine trying to ride 'em all at once? [He hesitates for a fraction of a second.] Alright, I think you've convinced me. I'll be there in a flash. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Mal merely smiles and nods.] [He continues riding along the beach, keeping the horse well away from the water as he waits for the young kid to stop by.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Action killerspeed 2013-09-19 04:44 pm UTC (link)
	[Bart's true to his word: within 20 seconds of his response, he arrives on the beach with a bottle of water in hand.] Hey. Hope I didn't keep you waiting? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Action cptn_tightpants 2013-09-20 12:09 am UTC (link)
	Huh... Sure didn't see you anywhere nearby... Let's go back to the stables... find you a horse. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	killerspeed 2013-09-20 11:19 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, you know, I was in the neighborhood. [Not really. Nowhere in this dome's far for him, though. Bart nods in agreement, starting to head back towards the stables.] You'll get me a docile one, right? Not one of those more... hyperactive ones? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cptn_tightpants 2013-09-23 09:08 pm UTC (link)
	Right... [Mal gives him a curious look, but then Bart asks about the horses.] Course I'll find a docile one. I may be a mean old man, but I ain't stupid. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	killerspeed 2013-10-02 01:24 am UTC (link)
	I wasn't saying you were. I've just... I don't think I've ever properly rode a horse before. [In other words, he's as nervous as all-get-out.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cptn_tightpants 2013-10-02 11:22 pm UTC (link)
	[Mal dismounts from his own horse and leads her to the trough. Then he sizes up Bart. He nods once and hands the boy a sugar cube.] Come on. Let's find you a horse. [Once inside, he walks down the center aisle until he finds the perfect horse. The one who's still and ain't reacting all that much.] There ya go. Hold out yer hand... say hello. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	killerspeed 2013-10-06 02:29 am UTC (link)
	[He accepts the sugar cube, holding it carefully in the palm of his hand as he follows Mal down the center aisle. The second they stop in front of the horse, Bart cautiously holds out his hand.] Um, hi. Nice horsie... steady horsie... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cptn_tightpants 2013-10-06 12:14 pm UTC (link)
	[It's comical how nervous Bart is around the horses. Mal stifles a chuckle as Bart holds out his hand, calling the animal "horsie."] [The horse in question steps forward and sniffs at Bart's hand before gently taking the sugar cube.] See? It ain't so bad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	killerspeed 2013-10-08 12:57 am UTC (link)
	[Its tongue tickles! Bart bites his lip, but he's unable to hide his smile.] This isn't bad. I still haven't gotten on it, you know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cptn_tightpants 2013-10-08 12:06 pm UTC (link)
	Then let's get her saddled up. [Mal finds the proper equipment and hands it to Bart, giving him directions on how to properly saddle a horse.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	killerspeed 2013-10-10 01:05 am UTC (link)
	[Bart nods, listening to those instructions as if they were a life-or-death matter. Still, he needs help as he saddles the mare, occasionally asking "is this right?" before he finishes saddling the horse. Once he's done, he takes a deep breath before getting on. Somehow, he doesn't trip over his own two feet in the process.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cptn_tightpants 2013-10-11 12:28 am UTC (link)
	[Mal watches and smiles once Bart gets up on the horse. Mal swings into his own saddle and gently kicks his mare to get her moving.] Your's will start followin' mine naturally. Just give her a gentle kick to speed up if you want. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	killerspeed 2013-10-11 02:36 pm UTC (link)
	Slow's fine. [For once! Everything - even cars and ships - move slower than him, so he's perfectly okay with the thrilling speed of a slow horse. After a moment, though, he leans forward and gives the horse a very, very gentle kick. The horse moves a bit faster, but for Bart, it feels like he's riding a snail.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cptn_tightpants 2013-10-12 10:50 am UTC (link)
	And if you'd like, we can bring them to a jog. [Mal kicks his horse into the faster setting.] Course an all out run is always fun... provided we've enough space. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	killerspeed 2013-10-21 12:39 am UTC (link)
	[Bart doesn't like the idea, but when in Rome...!] You don't think we've got enough space here? [It's an honest question. Bart can run in the tiniest of spaces, but he hadn't thought about it much regarding other animals.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
