[OTA] Hi-ho, Silver! (Watch out for the small dog)

[headfollowheart]

This is not the sight she expected to greet her when she headed to Town with Sirona to settle her back in at the repaired Town stables, and somehow she hadn't been surprised to see her cousin (or last bastion of testosterone, as he liked to refer to himself) sitting on a fence post and laughing and snapping pictures. Probably she should have told him to get Collin out of the ring and stop harassing poor Christabel, who's supposed to be living a quiet retired life.

She decides instead to whack him lightly on the back of the head and take Sirona out on the trails, riding between the Castles and out towards the new oceanic addition before finally heading back into Town.

She wouldn't be that surprised, really, if she barely saw Victor for the next few days. The Deck had the air of too much happening again, even if Zoe didn't know what most of it was.

She looked over at Sirona, though, murmuring a stern word in Greek when the horse looked like she was about to toss her head and work herself loose from the post. Her hand curled in the bridle, and she glanced back at Victor, a glittering, sly look in her eyes.

"A shower sounds like a nice way to start," she said. "I'll be back out as soon as she's settled."

"I'll be waiting," he said, reaching out to run a hand over Sionnach's nose gently as the geld finally made his way to the fence where Victor stood. Though he was rewarded for his attention by the horse firmly trying shove at his shoulder in a silent demand for treats.

But when Zoe came back, they would walk together back to the castle and his geld would have to settle for treats that stable hands would sneak him before eventually getting him back into a stall- or set him out to field.
