Fay glanced up in surprise, nodding. "Honestly, color doesn't matter to me, but I suppose I am partial to gray....I should ask Aiden if I can just have this little guy," Fay murmured, eyes bright. She glanced toward Keely. "What about you? What're you doing with your horse...s?" Fay wasn't able to remember if Keely had more than one horse, or if she even had one. Why couldn't she remember this? The young foal poked its head around Fay, flicking his ears forward with interest.

Keely nodded. She didn't really care about colors either, and wasn't really partial to any colors. Although she believed her horse seemed rather pretty with his brindle coat. "Uh, I only have My Lovely Rebel right now. I'm not racing him, because he'll be too old when I bring him back up to full health. He's gonna be a stud I guess. Hopefully he'll produce more babies like him. Unless he's a Chimera...." She hadn't tested him to see if he was a Chimera, but she figured she would have to at some point. Even though Chimera's were rare, she didn't want him to be one. She wanted his brindle color passed down. She had a slight feeling that he was a Chimera though, because his coat was a striking brindle color. "I actually am purchasing this other horse close by. He'll be coming in the next day or two...I think he's a bay." She muttered thoughtfully, gaze momentarily drifting back to the little foal. "Are you staying for good? Do you have any horses?"

Hope flinched as she moved away from Aiden just a bit. She sighed again,"No. She's just really big. Nothing out of her normal yet. I'll let you know when she does."she said, her voice soft as she moved to the other side of the mare. She didn't want anyone, especially Aiden, to see her cry. She stifled her soft sobs and let a few silent tears fall, before she pulled herself together. "I guess I'll see you around. I gotta go see if can pick up a few mounts. I hate being mount less and Riot is ready to run yet. By the way, I want to see if you'll help me with him. I need someone to run a mock race with me."she said, still not looking at him and instead moving out of the stall and making sure to keep her back to him.

"Of course!" Zoey said with a grin, her sparkling emerald eyes creasing at the corners. "And I don't go around Gal too much after he gave me that bite on my shoulder last year. I still have the scar." Her eyes rolled at the memory of the faint circle on her left shoulder blade, teeth marks barely visible among the freckles that powdered her shoulders and faded as they went down her back. "But yeah, we're going to the track later. Mom hates missing races for you guys. Especially you." Zoey shrugged "You know how she gets. A bit too antsy and nervous and all that. She's scared you're gonna take a bad fall again or something." She gave him a confident smile. "You know what you're doing, and I doubt that this big guy would let you fall off. Is'nt that right, you big red teddy bear?" She cooed in a sweet baby voice, rubbing Red's nose and putting a kiss between his nostrils. It was obvious Zoey was confident around horses, and she should be, considering she'd taken a good number of falls from her Gypsy Vanner mare, Pistol Pixie.

Fay raised her eyebrows. "I kind of just said that I hoped Aiden'd give me this fellow. C'mon, you know I don't have a horse," the female jockey exclaimed. "Not since my Gracie girl..." She sighed softly, shoulders slumping. She really missed her mare. The beautiful bay splash mare had been a bit grouchy sometimes but she'd been so good for Fay. She sometimes found it hard to look at PV since he looked so much like his dam. She lowered her blue gaze to study the grass, suddenly feeling rather down. Some days, she didn't even think about her mare. What kind of person was she? She had never deserved such a beautiful horse. She didn't deserve this little colt, either.

Aiden was taken aback when Hope began to cry. He was more perceptive than people gave him credit for, when he wasn't being so dense. "Hope, you know that I'll always be able to help out on anything. And we do have a couple of horses that need jockeys. I'll go find a list of the ones that don't have a jockey. Transcendence is out of the question though. And maybe Hamlet's Choice...." Aiden said sheepishly. He loved those two colts. Transcendence reminded him of Shadow in a way, and Hamlet was pretty much his baby. "A few of them are still in training, though. I'll figure it out."

Adam shrugged bashfully. "She has reason to be worried. Racing's dangerous, kid. Hey, do you guys want to just drive down with me? This way, we save gas." He offered. "Good for the environment and I won't be lonely." He looked hopeful. He hated long drives by himself. He'd just listen to the radio and talk aloud to himself, reminisce a bit on the way. Sometimes, he'd think about what Mike would think of his life, his successes and downfalls, and where Mike would be in his life. Red jerked his head back in surprise, ears flicking forward and then backward. He wasn't used to kisses on the nose but he didn't react terribly.

Keely nodded again. "I forgot, I'm sorry." She paused, squirming uncomfortably. She didn't want to make feel Fay any worse, so she was careful to tread lightly. "I'm sorry for making you upset. She was a good mare." She offered a tentative smile, lips curling to reveal a glimpse of her pearly whites. She hadn't really known Fay's horse much, but Keely would say almost anything to make the other woman feel better. "And hopefully Aiden will allow you to own that colt." Keely shifted her weight from foot to foot restlessly, eyes drifting off into the distance once more.

[Heeeeeeeeey story? Can we rp Keely and Sasha after we're done with Keely and Fay?]

[Spotify]

Hope smiled tentatively,"Thanks, but you don't have to do that. If by chance I don't get back in a few hours call the police, mkay?"she teased softly and smiled again, but it didn't seem to reach her eyes. She turned headed back into Lyric's stall, singing softly.

I don't know what to do with my Sadie...

I thought you were done with RP, Horse...?
She's your character. It's up to you.

MY LOVES!

Zoey barreled through the stable yard ontop of her Gypsie Vanner mare, Pistol Pixie. Pixie's long white and gray mane lashed back into Zoey's face and tangled with her unruly red hair while the two galloped at full speed through the Cross property. Zoey's joyous laughter and whoops could be heard all the way back at the bunkhouse, although she couldn't hear it herself because of the louds thuds from her mare's thundering hooves as the duo charged across Cross Thoroughbred Racing Facility.

GOLDIE
