A Cockeyed Optimist, Log 7/??? [Video]

The feed is clear: several feet from the ground, transmitting a picturesque view of the fields outside the mansion. The sun is shining, the grass is green, there's a thundering sound in the distance, a horse gallops by the camera lens-

Wait. A horse?The heavy galloping sound returns, brown swamping the frame, and a hand comes in to grab at the ( Read more... )

We have stables here?!

[There's a chorus of event sheep baa-ing in the background of the teenager's video.]

We do! [She beams, and then falters.] I'm sorry, have we...have we met before?

No, but... Uh.

[What are manners? Sokka casts a glance down at the sheep surrounding him.]

I'm Sokka, and these are my sheep.

[Saying this for about the third time, it doesn't come off as a question anymore. The view pans and gives a surprisingly good view of all the sheep before going back to him.]

That I really need to get out of my room.

I'm Evelyn.

[She raises an eyebrow at all the sheep.]

I...suppose you could herd them outside, if you wanted. They could graze here.

[The last event didn't have many consequences for Adachi. Aside for bumping into some people, he came off unscathed. Hell, he might have even benefited from it, but it was too early to tell at this point.

...Maybe he can benefit from this.]

Hey! I didn't even know we had a stable here!

Adachi!

[She met with him briefly during the last event, which wasn't too bad overall, but hasn't seen him since. Steadying her horse, Evie slides off of one side and onto solid ground.]

It's down in the field. Would you like to join me?

[Oh, Evie, he's already wandering the halls.]

Yeah! I can meet up with you in about a minute!

[And, as promised, in a few minutes he'll be there. ...How had he missed that? Honestly, only teenagers should've been this clueless... Oh well.]

Y'know, I thought I'd explored all this place. Thanks for proving me wrong.

[She's re-tacking her horse with another saddle, one that fits better. And surprise! She's wearing riding trousers today. Pants are supposedly popular in the future.]

I'll admit, I keep finding new things every day.

[Lifting the reins over the animal's head, Evelyn turns back to Adachi.]

...do you want to pet him?

[Woops. Zuko transmits an accidental video while checking out her feed. Damn comm devices hate him. He'd better say something..]

Uh..yeah. I have.

Zuko, hello. It's been a while.

[She looks at him curiously.]

Are you all right?

[video] exiled_torch October 24 2011, 04:15:00 UTC
I'm fine.

It's just that I didn't mean to send a video.

You seem a bit more melancholy than usual. Would you like to join me down at the stables?

[:OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO]

Un caballo! How magnificent!

Wait-- are you implying there are more of these fine creatures?

[video 4 lyfe] libraritology October 24 2011, 04:25:29 UTC
Dozens of them, all different breeds and colours!

[Evelyn's personal selection was something she's familiar with: a Bay Arabian horse.]

You should come down and pick one.

I am on my way, bella!

[Wooooosh and seconds later there he is, hopping along in the stables.]

How did I miss this place for so long?!

[Horseshorseshorses!]

[Evelyn is just now untacking her horse, and pauses mid-removal-of-saddle, adjusting it on the animal's back. She smiles broadly at Miguel.

They last met such a long time ago.]

I've no idea how I missed it either. Do you ride?

Have you not? You should come down and learn to ride!

Ah... I'm not sure I'm cut out for that.

Why not? You've got to start somewhere.
