The Gig: Thursday [6-9-11]

The horses were in high spirits today with the fresh air and sun, so Helen spent most of the day riding them in turn.

"Hello, The Gig!" James called out upon approach. He could hear the sound of hooves on the ground, so that meant that either Helen was out riding, or that something had invaded The Gig and did not have normal feet.

He hoped it was the first option.

Helen didn't hear him arrive. She was riding, head thrown back and laughing as she galloped across the field.

James waited by the stable, laughing at her antics. He held up a hand, waving at her as she passed.

She smiled and waved, riding one more circle before sliding off and nuzzling at the horse. "Good boy. Let's get you inside and brushed before I go."

"I feel neglected. Admit it, you prefer the stables to spending time with me," he teased, clicking his tongue at the horse and extending a horsey-patting hand.

"Welll...." she drawled, teasingly pretending to consider that.

He stuck his tongue out at her, very maturely. Really.

She just laughed and led the horse inside.

"Hey, we are having a conversation here," he intoned in a voice that might pass for serious in some lands. "You cannot just walk off and leave me.

He took the horse snorting as pure coincidence.

All he got from her was a giggle as she disappeared inside.

"I believe we're talking," he intoned as he (mock) stomped inside. He had on his best stern poker face.

She waved him off with an absent teasing smile as she began rubbing down the horse.

"Would you like some assistance?" he asked, leaning against a post, arms crossed. He still looked stern, but perhaps Helen could see he was teasing from the twinkle in his eyes and the way his cheek kept twitching into a half-smile.

"No, I'm fine," she said, smiling back over her shoulder and ignoring the mock sternness. "This won't take me long."

"And do you have plans for this fine eve?" he asked, dropping the serious act.

[will be AFK for a few hours!]

She shook her head with a smile. "I'd hoped a certain squire might be interested in spending some time with me."

[ooc: Have fun!]

"Oh? I have it on good authority that he would," he said, tilting his head, smiling back at her.

"Good to know," she said with a smile.

"Let's see what he thinks of it, shall we?" he asked, offering her arm.

[sorry! internet connection was spotty this weekend!]

She took his arm with a smile. "Let's."

[ooc: No worries, I've been straight out crazy here lately!]

[ftb? I missed last Thursday's Gig post. I'm sorry.]

[ooc: ftb and no worries. As I said, it's been nuts here!]
