Another horse quiz:

What are the three styles of riding?

@rae

Oops. You tagged Jonas….so was I not supposed to answer it? sorry XD

@rae

Hmm. Girth, right? (Or cinch in western terminology)

@highscribeofaetherium

Exactly. Though yours is somewhat related to your writing…and mine is so RANDOM…..chickens??????

@highscribeofaetherium

To be fair, I did have to Google “obscure sword terminology” to come up with Ricasso. But yeah, it’s an obsession XD

lol

@highscribeofaetherium @jonas

Most people have an obsession, but it usually isn’t chickens.

@jonas

lol! I’ve just never had any desire to learn about swords XD

Though if you asked me anything about CHICKENS…or DOGS…or HORSES….I could tell you anything you wanted to know lol

@highscribeofaetherium

@jonas

2/3 of them did, anyway.

@smiley

I can relate to this more than I can say!!! and it’s so hard, I’ve tried talking to my small group about it but none of them are really writers and it’s just really hard

I’ll try XD

Let’s hope Marcurious doesn’t try to take it for himself lol

“Sure,” Ottoline said sarcastically.

@acancello

Aww that was so sweet!

Ottoline

“What are you going to name yours?” she asked Hugo, burying her small hands in her elk’s rose fur.

“I don’t know, probably Hugo Junior.”

“That is so boring,” she laughed. “And what if its a girl?”

“Then Ottoline Junior, obviously!”

“Why not something like…Willow? Or Ivy? Or Nimrod?” she smiled.

@rae

I KNOW RIGHT?????????
