[There's no Aoge back there, but Naki will probably spot said horse ambling off in the distance near some bushes and ponds! He's enjoying nature...]

So, you think we should just... I dunno, run him around the park for a few laps every day or something? I mean, it's not like they'll be able to carry us to battle here.

[No wars to fight in!! Poor, poor warhorse.]

From:

yaayaa

[What a laid-back horse, ambling off into the wilderness...maybe he'll chase it? And by "chase" I mean "walk towards it at a laid-back casual speed" because it doesn't seem to be in much of a hurry.]

That sounds good! I'm sure Aoge would enjoy it...running around the park would definitely be more enjoyable than staying in the stables. And I'm sure everyone would enjoy the occasional ride!

From:

adornmental

[Well, it's not running away as soon as it notices someone's gently ambling after it, if nothing else... A good sign?!]

Yeah, you're right about that! I was just thinking of hosting a horseback archery contest or something someday. Y'know, just for a little extra fun after we're all done with our daily practice.

From:

yaayaa

Horseback archery! I don't believe we've ever done that before, but it definitely sounds exciting!

[Naki glances back for a moment, thinking of asking a question, but then apparently deciding not to? Back to the horse! Once he gets close enough to catch its attention he's gonna pet it!!]

From:

adornmental

It's pretty fun, yeah. I haven't done it many times myself, but Aoge's a good horse for beginners.

[Because he's SO DAMN SLOW...

Speaking of, he's stopped near another bush up ahead and seems to be partaking in some tasty treats there. Fortunately it's not a killer alien plant...]

From:

yaayaa

[The world's slowest horse! That's gotta be some sort of record. Reaching Aoge, checking out what he's eating (just in case it's a killer alien plant), turning back to Kashuu...]

You could teach.

From:

adornmental

[It's just a charming berry bush with no toxic things available for poor, wandering horses! Lucky them.]

Eh? Teach the archery part?

[He can't teach Aoge how to be faster, alas...]

From:

yaayaa

[Maybe he wants you to teach speed to Aoge!! but no he'll just stare impassively, as if that's an acceptable answer.]

Do you think you would make a good archery teacher? You already do quite well with swordsmanship.

From:

adornmental

[LOOK, HE WOULD IF HE COULD. He'll get Aoge rocket boots.]

I dunno... I mean, I'm obviously good at wielding a sword! But archery isn't really my thing.

[Aoge, meanwhile, starts to amble off a little while they stand around talking. Good thing he's easy to keep up with...]

From:

yaayaa

[Rocket horse....]

...Sayo?

[Tantous can equip archers, right? Also, Naki's gonna just keep following the horse. They're taking a walk around the park! Sort of!]

From:

adornmental

[WHY IS THAT A THING.]

Hm... You think he'd be interested in it? I guess it wouldn't hurt to ask or whatever.

[He's giving this some serious thought! And reaches out to pat Aoge as they go, since this is basically just a leisurely stroll now. Good work, team... So much for having to corral the horse?!]

From:

yaayaa

[The internet is a vast sea of mystery...]

You never know until you ask! It would be interesting to see his answer, at least.

[It's a serious topic to think about! Aoge seems to be enjoying their walk, meanwhile. Tasty grass! Nice scenery! Hopefully no killer plants or fish? They're coming up to a pond, anyway.]

From:

adornmental

[Ah, a lovely pond! Kashuu trusts NONE OF THEM except for the nice cute one that had koi fish once upon a time.]

I'll give it a shot and let you know what he says, 'kay?

[Somewhere in the distance Sayo is probably sneezing.]

—Mm, you thirsty?

[This is directed more at Aoge though, who's sauntering over toward the pond.]

From:

yaayaa

[Naki lets out an agreeable noise at the suggestion, as he curiously glances towards Aoge's new destination.

Is Aoge thirsty! The answer appears to be Yes, though there's still the question of whether it's a safe pond full of safe horse-friendly water.

What if it's full of Fishies...he can't help leaning out a bit, to look.]

From:

adornmental

[It's full of fishes, at least! Pretty-looking alien fish that swim somewhat close to the surface, but seem shy like carp in that they dart away as soon as shadows fall over them.

Speaking of shadows, though... This pond is pretty deep, and there seems to be a pretty large one slowly drifting by much closer to the bottom.]

...I'm not sure you should be drinking here, buddy.

[PATTING AOGE'S SIDE...]

From:

yaayaa

[So many pretty fishes! And...yes. That single Fishy at the bottom.

He kinda wants to see it?

Naki's picking up a rock to toss in. Just...just because.

Yes.]

Perhaps there are other places we can take him for water? Another pond, perhaps.

From:

adornmental

Hey—!

[AAAH NAKI WHY?! The rock plunks in and sinks to the bottom, where that large shadow seems minutely disturbed by it.]

Uh-- yeah, I'm pretty sure we should definitely be going to another pond. Like, stat.

[Considering that shadow's moving upward now...]

From:

yaayaa

[He was curious........]

Yes, that sounds like a good idea! I'm sure we'll find another pond, in another direction!

[Immediately, even! Let's turn this horse around!!

Naki might lag behind a bit though, he wants to see the fish come up? Just a glimpse!]

From:

adornmental

Good, good. Let's go!

[Leading Aoge AWAY... Fortunately when a horse is this chill, it doesn't really mind being herded around. Naki, on the other hand, is a dang menace?! Kashuu's quick to reach back with his free hand, tugging this dingus forward by the sleeve cuff.]

You're gonna get your face bitten off!!

[And actually, right as he yanks Naki back, said fish erupts from the water. It's... well. It sure is enormous.]

From:

yaayaa

[Oh, there it is. He doesn't get the best view due to getting yanked back so suddenly, but. He sees the fish! The fox just yelled out in surprise or something! As he lets himself get dragged away from certain death.]

N-Nakigitsune, please be careful...!

From:

adornmental

[Please listen to smallest fox, Nakigitsune. Kashuu can already feel himself aging an extra hundred years...]

I told you to be careful! What're you trying to do here, huh?!

[Outside of SHAVE YEARS OFF HIS LIFE.]

From:

yaayaa

[At this rate, maybe he'll become as old as Naki....]

...I wanted to see... [if it was the same kind of fish as Fishy, is the rest of the sentence.

He's following though! He's no longer in the danger zone! Hopefully they won't run into killer plants too?]

Ahem...well! At least it can't come out on land! Aoge here is perfectly safe.

Edited Date: 2016-07-24 10:33 pm (UTC)

From:

adornmental

[It did probably look like a much bigger version of Fishy...

That said, Kashuu just assumes the sentence ends at "see", and that Naki was just curious. So he SIGHS.]

At the rate things go here, you're gonna curse us and the next things CERES brings in will totally be land fish.

From:

yaayaa

[A giant Fishy...Fishy's parent? (How do parents work, a question he has yet to ask.)]

D-don't say that! If those creatures could walk on land......!

[Smallest fox shudders! Naki raises a hand to give him a comforting pat, but he's still more thoughtful than worried.] Fish with legs?

From:

adornmental

[Hopefully not Fishy's parents, or else it might come after him...]

If they could walk on land, we'd be in big trouble! [BE AFRAID, SMALLEST FOX. Kashuu's a little concerned, too...

But at least Naki is there to break them all out of their fish-fueled concern party.]

--I guess, yeah. Or maybe fish that can fly? But I guess they'd be air fish and not land fish, then. Ooh, or maybe a combo! Like bird fish!
