[despite the heat, or perhaps because of it, Ace had grown rather restless. so taking a page from the events from last month's Renaissance Faire, he decided to try his hand at fighting on horseback. it looked interesting and fun at any rate, plus what knight wouldn't be able to do at

[He does look like he's having fun, doesn't he? Kanaya sits down to watch.

[knightofchanges]

[that he is! but as he's turning, he notices Kanaya and gives her a cheerful wave.]

Afternoon, Miss Kanaya!

[rainbowpalette]

[Cheerful wave back!]

Good afternoon, Ace!

[knightofchanges]

Enjoying the day? [rides on over so they're not shouting all over the place.]

[rainbowpalette]

[She stands up as he rides over and gently pats the hoofbeast he's riding on the nose.]

Very much so.

[And it's true, she is. This might be the first time that Ace, or anyone in Somarium, really, has seen her when she's completely calm and serene. Everything is right in her world right now.]

[knightofchanges]

[he's actually noticing her rather cheerful outlook.]

Hey, you're actually smiling this time. Any particular reason why you seem so cheerful?

[rainbowpalette]

[Have some bright, charmingly self-deprecating laughter.]

The last few times you saw me, I was having some problems with my friends. That's all been resolved now, though.

[Beaming up at him.]

I have a moirail now!

[knightofchanges]

That's good to hear. [smiles but then he blinks in slight confusement.]

Moirail?

[rainbowpalette]

Didn't Karkat explain troll romance to you?

[She knows you talked to him before, and she's honestly a little surprised that he never bothered to explain this before. He explains it to everybody.]

A moirail is a very important, very close relationship in a troll's life. Moirails watch out for each other, help each other out, and compliment each other's good points while downplaying their bad ones.

[Smile again.]

And now I have one, so I'm feeling much better than I was before.

[knightofchanges]

I think he got too annoyed with me to get that far. [which is...not surprising. or he forgot. either can work.]

But that's interesting. So who is your moirail?

[rainbowpalette]

[Not surprising, that Karkat would RAGEQUIT on Ace.]

Eridan! He's another troll. Have you met him?

[knightofchanges]

Hmm, no I don't think so.

[rainbowpalette]

[That's... probably for the best, actually. She can't imagine Ace and Eridan getting along.

At all.]

Well, we're looking out for each other now, and I'm very happy about it.

So what have you been doing? Besides enjoying some equestrian sports in this lovely weather?

[knightofchanges]

Not much, really, which is one of the reasons why I'm out here.

You should give it a try.

[rainbowpalette]

[Slightly nervous giggling.]

I've never ridden a hoofbeast before. Is it difficult?

[knightofchanges]

Hmm it can be. But it's not too hard.

[dismounts and holds out the reins to her.] Here, I can just walk alongside and lead if you want.
