[ he can't say he doesn't understand that feeling: without Slow Dancer, he would never have gotten anywhere, literally and metaphorically. She made him safer, too - and stronger.
The question takes him by surprise, but not in a bad way. ]
Uh -- sure. I mean, if you really want to... It'd definitely be faster with two people. [ unsurprisingly, it takes a long time to tend to a horse properly in a wheelchair. He'd question her further on if she really means that, save for the fact that she's been caring for Slow Dancer on her own for a few months now. ] You ended up liking horses, huh? Even a mean old nag like this one.
[ She has to think about that. DOES she like horses? ]
To be honest, I've never ridden a horse... but I do think they're regal, and good companions. And I enjoy brushing them down.
[ Looking after animals is one of the few things that's stayed the same all the way from her humble village to this fantastical place. She glances back to Slow Dancer. ]
She can be a bit difficult for people to approach, but she's been a lot of help to me. Like a lot of Shard-Bearers, actually.
