Oliver laughed a bit, grabbing his bag and following the Amelia and Tarkin. "That's the plan!" He said, "I have no choice." He let out a small chuckle, though he was only half joking. ((sorry it's short Kurai

Oliver laughed, "you're starting to sound like my dad!" He joked. He then looked around at other horses, "nah, I don't think riding episode really my thing," he said. He then looked to a neighboring stall. In the stall there was a medium sized Marawi horse with a flame red pelt, and mane. Oliver went over to the stall and looked in, the mare got up almost emedietly to greet the boy, she was friendly with humans he could see. The mare, snuffled before bumping her snout clumsily into his face. Oliver stepped back and laughed.
"easy boy!" He said, at first. He then noticed her bulging stomach, "easy girl!" He corrected himself. He then looked at the name plate inside the stall, shelling the mare's current condition. The name read, 'Skyfire' after the name icon. "Skyfire." He said with a smile. He then looked back over at Amelia with a smile, "okay maybe this horse is alright." He said.

It's been a while since I've rped stables, so I may be off and rusty for a bit. ]
Jenson can go on the trail ride with Jay and Tori. ]
Jenson was by Splash's stall. Today, he was wearing ripped, boot cut blue jeans, a black Green Day tank, cowboy boots, and a snapback on his head. He placed the saddle in his arms over the half door of the stall and hung the bridle on a hook on the stall. He opened the stall door and walked up to Splash's head. He said gently,"Hey, Splash. Wanna go on a ride?" Splash perked her ears up and nickered as Jenson led her out of the stall and to the blue lead rope that was tied to the outside of the stall. He clipped the lead rope to Splash's halter and petted her neck before crouching down to his groom box. He opened the groom box and started grooming his dappled mustang as he talked to her. When he finished with Splash's grooming, he ducked under Splash's head and grabbed the saddle, gently placing it on the mare's back. He made sure the saddle was secured enough to not slide but that Splash could still breathe before he finished with the bridle. He grabbed the reins and walked out of the barn, cowboy boots making soft sounds on the barn floor. Once he exited the stable, he saw Jay. He waved before taking his snapback off, fixing his bangs, and placing the snapback on his head backwards so that if he went faster than a trot, he wouldn't loose his hat. He made his way closer to Jay and Tori but didn't approach them. He was just getting out the way as he thought on where to go while petting Splash's shoulder.

Jay nodded at Jenson, who had just walked out of the Barn with his mustang mare. He reached up and pulled his long hair back, using a strong hair tie to hold it back so his helmet would fit. Big hair was a struggle sometimes.

Kurai Oliver didn't really know what he should do now, he had never even touched a horse in his life, yet here he was interacting with a mare face to face! Or, face to snout, so to speak. Oliver look at Alena and smirked a bit before rolling his eyes, "yeah, well then she must like very single person that comes into sight, because I know nothing about horses! Why woul she like me?" He asked. He tried to pet Skyfire, petting her mane as if she were a dog. Skyfire snorted before shaking his head off. Oliver jumped back a bit, but Skyfire only mpved closer to the fence, whinnying loudly.

(I'm gonna start the trail ride to get things moving)
Jay walked Ranger over to Tori and Jenson. "Y'all ready?" He asked, looking appreciatively at Domino. It was good to see the horse out and about with its real rider. "I was thinking we should give creekside and cliffside a pass, because of the possible rain. Any ideas?"
(y'all can make up trails and stuff it you want, I'll add all the trails to the front page soon)

((@kuria - it's fine! ^ I did too Oliver looked confused for a moment, but put his hand up and copied how Amelia held her's previously. He then regained his stance, he held his hand up and out it forward. His eyes now focused on the horse. Skyfire sniffed it, before pressing her nose gently into his hand. Oliver smiled, he looked over at Amelia. He then turned back to Skyfire and laughed, "good girl," he said. (( snow - oh! Can one train be like a mountain path that leads up to some sort of really good view/ campsite or something?

(That's fine forestpaw!)
Jay nodded. "Good idea. We can go down to the lake and try to be back before it rains." If not, other than the horses needing some extra attention after riding in the rain, they wouldn't be any of the riskier trails. The lake trail just led through the forest and then around the before it came back the same way. As far as Jay knew, there were no new fallen trees or other obstructions to block their path.

"Yeah, we'd better go so we can get back here before it rains," Jay said, urging Ranger to walk with a light tap from his heel. Steering her away from the paddocks, he looked back to make sure Jenson and Tori were both following on Splash and Domino. They would go out to the pasture, where the trail to the lake started.

(Sorry guys! I might not be on much till Tuesday when I can get onto internet on my laptop ^^) "Alright, let's go," Tori murmured, almost to herself as she urged Domino forward. Her horse let out a soft snort, almost as if he where going to protest, but instead plodded forward, going slow as if he where going to take his sweet time on this patrol. She rolled her eyes, but a smile touched her lips, happy to have her horse back after all these months.

When they reached the trail, Jay gave Ranger a pat on the neck and twisted slightly in his saddle. "How do you feel riding again, Tori?" He asked quietly- well, normally for him. But his voice, though deep, was usually calm and quiet.

"Its- soothing, nice. I feel like I'm finally home again," She responded, her voice higher and clearer than Jays- but that was just how she spoke generally. She wasn't calm and quiet, instead she was typically excitable and energetic, something that matched with Dominos personality. He may not be energetic, but you needed all the energy you had to work with the stubborn horse at times. She glanced back, "How have you two been?" She asked, wanting to include Jensen.

Oliver looked over at Amelia. "Alright," he said with a smile, "but, who would we ask?" He said while looking around. Now that he thought on about it, he hasn't seen anybody who was really in charge for the time he'd been here, only riders. He also needed to sign up for lessons, so by di in someone in charge he would be killing two birds with one stone.

Oliver nodded, "alright. Lead the way," he said with a smile. Skyfire snorted again, Oliver jumped back again but laughed as he did so. "Alright! I know! I like you too," he said with a smile.

Oliver looked to the ground and put his hands in his pockets, "yeah. My dad thought it would be good for me. After my mom died..." He took a deep breath, "after my mom died I moved up to my dads house in the middle of the country, no neighbors for about a mile,' he said, "so, he brought me here to find both human friends, spend my time well, and maybe find a animal companion." He said simply. He looked up as they neared the office, looking around for someone he could talk to.

((It's fine.
Oliver smiled at the girl, his heart war,img at her words, "yeah," he said with a smile. He waited for the door to open as he wanders through his thoughts, reliving the moments he had with his mom, and when he came to the country with his dad, he remembered how many mixed emotions he had, that day he couldn't even look his dad in the eye.
"Yes?" And employe said from inside the office, "what can I help you two with?"

Jay smiled. "I know what you mean, Jenson. I'm taking a break from online courses this summer." He took online classes with the community college, which was actually a couple towns over. It was a lot of work, juggling classes with work at the diner and work here at the stables- obviously, the third job was his favorite. They reached the fork in the trail, where the left path led to the lake. Jay used the reigns to guide Ranger, but she really didn't need it- they were almost perfectly in tune with each other.
