Look at her. She's beautiful.

The grey foal that Huang Hua gifted him was literally the prettiest horse he's seen in Eldarya.

"What will you name her?" The lady asked. They're in the stables once again. Servants saddling her steed.

"Britneigh Horse."

"Ah, what a beautiful name! I feel as though I have heard it before."

"Well, maybe we already had this conversation but we forgot?"

"Yes, perhaps!" She chuckled. "Well, now that this errand is done, I shall depart. See you on my birthday Kassvin!"

"Leave in good health!"

He went to talk with the stable hands and they arranged her housing. He didn't have the chance to snoop around before, the building is actually pretty big and houses a bunch of diffrent creatures. Brit trotted behind him as they discovered the bendy hallways of the brick building. Theres storage room after storage room of mysterious crates. Food and treats in one room, toys in the other. Theres also a mini horse infirmary. A horse-pital, if I may say so.

"H-hey, e-excuse me!"

He turned around and saw noone.

"Down below!" He lowered his gaze.

"Oh, hi there!" It's a talking cat, about a foot and a half tall. "What's the matter?"

"I- I am Purreru, I'm responsible for the health and wellfare of all companions belonging to guard members. I w-would like to ask you to take your rabon to my practice in the following week so they can be registered."

"Will do, where is the practice?"

"U-up the road from here, close to the market with a big sign!"

"Aight, noted! Want anything else?"

"No ma'am. I-I mean sir! O-o-o-or ma'am! IM SORRY!" He ran away on all fours. Huh.

"Bye cat."

He looked at Britneigh. Britneigh looked at him.

"Whats up sweety?"

Britneigh trotted down the hallway, leaving him to run after her so she wouldn't get lost.

He's a dad now. Gotta do dad things, so he had spent the rest of the day showing Britneigh his house and his friends.

...

Valkyons gone. He's on a mission again.

Kassvin feels really good right now, like his body is lighter somehow. He's cutting up vegtables for more soup. He'll probably be hungry when he gets home.

Minestrone. He'll love it!

Brit seems a little anxious about the house. She doesn't go too far away from Kassvin.

Last night sure was an experience.

He gently poked at the hickey on his neck and giggled to himself. He could use a pillow right now. He needs to scream into it a bit.

"Can you believe this Britneigh?" The rabon snorted at him. "Oh right, you don't even know him." He laughed to himself.

The horse folded her slightly wonky legs and rested. Kassvin resumed his cooking with his memories keeping him entertained.

He's got big hands... He's got big everything, honestly. Rough and strong, getting thighter and thighter around his neck.

Oh fuck.

Was that bed always so creaky? He doesn't remember ever sleeping in it. He doesn't even remember waking up today. He remembers teaching archery to the new recruits and sending Hua off, nothing else.
