[ota] stretching out

There was no 'business' excuse for Julien to take Padraig out today, but there was something to be said for letting the horse open up into a gallop out in the open fields of the Deck. There's something to be said for just...getting out of the Castle, even for one as tied to it as Julien is.

And if their gallop takes them close in to Town so it seems reasonable to slow to an ambling pace to let the horse cool off as they ride through the streets toward something warm to drink before they head back to the Castle? So much the better.

[ooc: Catch him if you're out riding too, or if you see him and Padraig 'ambling' down the street, or in the stables on the way out or when they return. :)]

She'd always gone to the Queen with her challenge requests. She doesn't want to insult Sade by changing everything at this late date. It wouldn't be the first time someone disapproved of her. She nods.

"Oh. Yes. There are people like that. I've always believed challenges should be treated seriously. You insult your opponent, your Suit and yourself if you don't." She shrugs. "Or perhaps I'm simply competitive by nature." Or had had it drilled into her.
