Sil:
It had been a long trip by boat but they had now arrived in Quebec. Skaggerak was curiously looking around while obediently following Eli on a lead as they tried to find their way to the guest stables.
"It should be around here somewhere." Wilma mumbled holding a map that kept folding itself in the wind making it hard for her to read the directions as she was only holding onto it with one hand, the other was occupied holding her luggage.
"Give me your bag so you can read the map." Aaron suggested as he was walking beside her.
"Aaron you're already carrying most of the luggage. I can carry mine just fine." Wilma stubornly said just as the wind caught onto the map and carried it with it...
Tama:
Having been already settled earlier because of her family offering guard services to the event, Hanae had took the opportunity before lunch to go to the stables to check on her stallion. Hormuz,though a bit unsure of the new temporary stall of his, was seemingly doing well but was just bored. It was however when he saw his rider that he got a bit excited. “Hey boy,”said Hanae sweetly as she placed her hand onto his head and gave him and gentle stroke. With that the black stallion merely nickered in response and leaned into her touch, enjoying it with closed eyes. A little away from the stables Mansura had just got back from finishing his morning detail so he decided that before lunch, since he let his fathers stallion enjoy the fields that morning, that he was going to bring them indoors so that they could warm up. It certainly didn’t take him too long to find and then get the old kladruber to let him put his halter on. “Let’s get you inside, I’m sure your old self would appreciate a nicely heated stall than out here with it being chilly,” he said with a light chuckle as he patted the old stallions neck before leading him out of the paddock.
Sil:
The map continued to carry with the wind as Wilma tried to chase after it, she could hear her brother call out to her.
"Do we really need the map? We could ask somebody on the way."
Defeated Wilma stopped as the snow got a bit deep for her heels. She wasn't really dressed for a wild goose chase in this winter wonderland. "I can take my bag back now." she prompted as Aaron had picked it up when she dropped it to chase after that god forsaken piece of paper.
"It's fine, I can take it, one bag more or less doesn't matter." Aaron replied as they continued to head further into the the complex.
"I'm not some dainty lady, Aaron, I can take it myself. No wait, hold onto it a little longer, I'm gonna ask that gentleman over there for directions" Wilma said pointing at a guy leading a handsome kladruber from the paddock. And with that she was on her way. "Excuse me, sir!" She called out for him (Mansura) as she stepped on an ice patch and with her heals on she had no choice but to slide and land on her behind. "EEEEP!"
Tama:
Mansura wasn’t to focused on his surroundings as he had a mindset of just going to the stalls then head off to grab lunch but, when he heard someone call out to him he shifted his gaze to where he heard them. He rose a brow first as he didn’t recognize the woman but stopped where he was to let the woman catch up. When the woman all the sudden slid and fell on her behind he gave a little look of suprise before letting go of the halter rope he was holding that led the stallion and left to the woman where he offered her his hand. “Are you alright, Ma’am?”he asked with his strong Andalusian accent overpowering his English.
Sil:
Once on the ground Wilma just layed down flat on her back and let out a big sigh. "It's not my day today, guys!" she called out to Eli and Aaron who of course had seen the whole debacle. "Oh hello, sir!" She then said noticing the guy she had been calling out to. She took his hand and got herself back up on her feet. "Thank you, yes Im alright. These shoes may be pretty, but they sure as hell doesn't work well running on ice with." she said and dusted off her fur trimmed coat from snow. "I was gonna ask you about the directions to the guest stables. If you know where it is?"
Tama:
“Should be careful Ma’am, “ he said with light chuckle as he helped her up before hearing her question regarding the guest stables. He then nodded, “Of course, in a matter of fact I was heading there before you called for my attention. It’s not that far from here, I can lead you all there if you’d like?”he asked before looking behind him to see Zimni standing where he was left minding his business. Mansura gave the old stud a whistle before watching him come trotting forward to be close with the little group.
Sil:
"Oh, yes please, that would be very kind of you." Wilma said and waved at Eli and Aaron to hurry up. "Come on boys, this kind gentleman will take us to the guest stables."
"Wilma are you ok?" Eli asked his sister. "That was not a small tumble."
"I'm fine, don't worry about it." Wilma said and then turned to Mansura again. "Alright, I think we're all accounted for, show the way." she chirped. "What is your name by the way?"
Tama:
Mansura gave a nod in answer before taking hold of Zimni’s halter rope.” My name is Mansura, Mansura Diwan,” he said giving a light smile before he began to head in the direction of the stable. “ And who am I having the pleasure of escorting?~” he asked in joking like response before looking at Wilma and the two men.
Sil:
Wilma looked up at him. "Nice to make an acquaintance Mr Diwan. My name is Wilma Porter." She said and waved a delicate hand towards Eli who wasn't late to introduce himself.
"I'm Wilma's brother, Eli Porter." he said. It was followed by silence as Aaron didn't think he was important enough to be introduced. Both Eli and Wilma turned their heads to him to let him know.
"Oh uhm, I'm Aaron.. Aaron Lilja."
Skagerrak wasn't late to introduce himself tho as he neighed loudly at Mansura's kladruber. Eli rolled his eyes. "And yes, this is Skagerrak. How could I even forget." he said and rubbed the stallions forehead.
Tama:
“Well it is a pleasure to meet all of you~,”he said chuckling a bit at then end when Skagerrak made sure he was known. The old kladruber stud flattened his ears a bit and when the Admiralskaya gave a loud neigh near him, before shaking his head then gave a low nicker/neigh in response. “This old man is Zimni, my fathers prized retired royal mounted guard stallion,”he said as he gave the old stallion a scratch on the neck as he continued to where they were going. “So what is your plans for this event? Staying through it all? Or perhaps stay for a certain class or two before heading home?”.
Sil:
Eli could now make out where they were supposed to go as they came closer to their destination, it was cold so he couldn't wait to get somewhere where it was a little warmer. "Ah, we're here for the dressage and the halter, but we're probably staying the whole duration. It was a bit of a journey here, so best to make the most of it." he said with a smile. "How about yourself? Are you here alone?"
Tama:
“Always good,” he said before they finally reached the front of the stable and he decided to walk on in before continuing to speak. “Me, I work as one of the security guards for the event so I’ll be staying through the entirety of the event. I do have to say that I’m only participating in one activity and that is the dressage. I am fortunate to say that I am not alone here. My wife Camilla is here as well as my father, two brothers and a sister,” he said a bit happily before taking note of seeing Hanae grabbing a grooming set of tools for her admiralskaya. “I guess it is good timing, because it looks like my sister is here~”.
Sil:
"Oh, almost a whole family." Eli noted as Mansura listed the people he was accompanied with at the event. They followed him into the stable.
"Should I wait here?" Aaron asked from the doorway. "I'm carrying all the luggage."
"Oh I can wait outside with the luggage, Aaron." Wilma said. "I'm not dressed for stable duties at the moment anyway, you go help Eli get Skagerrak comfortable."
Aaron then put all the bags down outside and walked inside, digging into his pocket for the note that told them what stall they had been given. "Skagerrak goes in stall number 14, it's the one over there." he said and pointed to a stall that were close to Mansura's sister and her horse. "I guess we're camping with your sister." he then said to Mansura where on Eli gave him a questioning look which made Aaron realize his words of choice. "........I didn't mean it like that." He blurted out. Even tho Aaron's blunt way of speaking sometimes made things awkward, it was always kinda amusing. Eli turned his gaze to Mansura again. "I think I have meet your sister briefly a few times before." he said and then turned towards Hanae, letting her pass before he continued with Skagerrak into the stall close by. "How do you do" he said with a polite nod towards her.
Tama:
Mansura stopped where he was and looked at the Aaron for second before bursting out with a hearty laugh, “Guess you are!”. He then proceeded forward to place the black Kladruber in the stall across from his sisters horse. “Perhaps you have~”, he added as he removed his stallions halter and exited the stall to reside outside of it. Hanae seeing the strangers with her brother gave them a warm genuine smile before passing them by to place the grooming tools to the side. She then turned her focus onto the two men before finally replying, “I’m very well, and how are you sir?”. Hormuz looked over to his new stable buddy and see new people around and gave a excited neigh before reaching his head over to greet them all. Hanae merely watched with smile and stifled a little giggle at her stallions behavior.
Sil:
Aaron's cheeks turned a little rosey but he was happy he hadn't made thing too awkward this time and moved to remove Skagerrak's leg protections. The stallion was way too occupied with his new stable buddy to even bother making the work difficult for his groom this time.
"I'm well, ma'am, a little cold, the wind really blows right through you." Eli replied to Hanae, removing the halter from Skagerrak who was still preoccupied chit chatting with Hormuz in 'horse'. Eli watched the two stallion with a tilt of his head. "Aren't these two related. I think that's where I remember you from. Skagerrak is your horse's sire, isn't he?"
Tama:
“It certainly does, I was half tempted to stay inside today,” she said shivering at the thought. When Eli brought up the question if the two stallions were related, Hanae merely smiled before replying, “Skagerrak is indeed Hormuz’s sire~ and It has certainly been a while Mr. Porter~”. “I am certainly still grateful for the opportunity you gave me and have no regrets,” she added before gently patted the younger stallions neck. Hormuz gave a chipper like neigh in response to Hanae’s somewhat praise before turning to focus onto his father once more.
Sil:
"It's my pleasure, Ms Diwan. I will be looking forward to seeing him in action." Eli said with a curled smile. "I assume you're both here for the dressage?" he then asked handing over the halter he had taken off of Skagerrak to Aaron who was putting everything in order for their stay. Eli then proceeded to pull up his collar on his coat for a bit of extra warmth.
Tama:
"You are certainly correct~" she said with a light chuckle as she leaned a little against hormuz's stall door. She then turned her focus to Aaron, " I don't recall seeing this charming fellow when I met with you~ I'm guessing he is someone new that you have hired?~" she asked with a bit of curiosity.
Sil:
Eli turned towards Aaron who ogled a bit over his shoulder.
"Who, me?" Aaron said, not really expecting to be noted. Eli chuckled a little and nodded.
"Yes, this is Aaron Lilja." He said and stepped a little aside to let Aaron step forward.
"As he said, I'm Aaron, nice to meet you ma'am." he said and offered a smile.
Tama:
Hanae gave a sweet smile. “well it’s certainly a pleasure to meet you as well Aaron”, she said and offered her hand to Aaron in greeting, “Hope Mr. Porter hasn’t overworked you already,” she added a bit jokingly and teasingly as she glanced at Eli for a second.
Sil:
Aaron took Hanae's hand in greeting and then ogled towards Eli who had already picked up on the joke and stared at his fellow staff member in a comedic way. Aaron slowly turned his gaze back to Hanae with a pretended nervous look on his face. "Of course not" He said. "In all sincereness, this is the best job I've ever had." he then added. "And I'm not saying that just cause he's staring profusely at me right now."
Tama:
Hanae shook Aaron's hand politely before giving a light chuckle at his response. "At least your doing well and seem to enjoy your job," she added before gently pulling her hand way and letting it rest on her side. Seeing this stranger shake hands with his partner made Hormuz a bit curious, and with that curiousity he stretched his head out to inspect Aaron. The young stud gave the man a nicker before reaching downward in an attempt to get petted or scratched. Hanae noticing this gave a light grin before placing a hand on her hip playfully. " such a attention wanter you are,"she said teasingly at the stud, to which he gave her a playful neigh in response.
Sil:
Aaron nodded.
“I very much do, miss.” He said with a very grateful smile before reaching to pet Hormuz on the muzzle. “Social boy aren’t you?” he cooed at the stallion. Beside him Eli drew his coat a little closer around himself. “I can tell you’re freezing, go with Wilma. I can finish up here.” Aaron offered.
“Are you sure?” Eli asked even tho he was already very ready to go somewhere warmer.
“Of course, go on!” Aaron assured him and made a little shooh-ing motion with his fingers as if he was chasing away a chicken. “Ms Diwan, it was a pleasure.” He said and bowed a little with his head before disappearing into Skagerrak’s stall to begin finishing everything.
