Open post: Calvary Combat

[forgedinbattle]

[Welcome to Calvary Combat class! The first thing you might notice is that your teacher is making no effort to keep you here. If you want to ditch, go ahead. She’s not going to waste her time teaching people who aren’t interested.

Now, if you've decided you want to stick around, she will gather you all up in a group.]

Right. I’m guessing we have a lot of different skill levels here, so I’m gonna divide you up. I don't want to stick a sword in your hand before you can even get on a horse.

[ooc: Threadjack all you want, move around, add sections if there’s other stuff you can think of. Go nuts on this post, guys. Sections: Riding, fighting, hanging out with the animals, slackers. Also, I may or may not be a bit slow, bear with me.]

[She figures this class might be worth attending. Gotta get better at fighting on Tad, after all.

Still, this is different. How do approach a horse? All she knows about are giant tigerdog steeds. She comes forward slowly towards one of the horses, hand extended with palm up.]

Um, do we have food for them or anything? `[Food is a good way to make friends.]

I was waiting for someone to ask that. [And you are having a sugar cube handed to you, sensible student.]

[:D She looks so pleased! Resting the sugar cube on her palm, Rin reaches out to a horse and offers the goodie anyway. Of course the horse snuffles right into her hand.]

Um, should we just get on then?

[forgedinbattle]

Do you know how?

[payback]

Uh... not on a horse!

[AND THEN XENA GAVE RIN AN INFORMATIVE RIDING LESSON, AND FUN WAS HAD BY ALL.

That sounds so dirty.]
