Description
Aelin(new person I'll have a wiki up later) saddled Tic nervously. The mare had been spunky all morning, throwing herself about and such. She knew she couldn't afford to mess her rounds up today. It was the morning of the JEC hunter derby, and Aelin and Tic were moving up from the 3'6 level to the 4' level. Je had been training them, and though Aelin had felt ready after her last lesson, her hands were shaking badly as she buckled Tics bridle and adjusted her martingale.

In the warmup ring, Tic threw herself into the air, bucking and bolting. Aelin knew she couldnt man handle the mare, so she tried to sit what she had and after a dozen or so warmup fences, Tic began to settle. When Tic and Aelin entered the all too familiar arena, Tic seemed to deflate, and as Tic soared over the first fence, Aelin felt herself start to breath again.
As always constructive criticism is much appreciated! Just know that this is only my 2nd time drawing a human on a horse and that I already know the bg sucks ;-;
