Heide Springfield

Sitting in the silent car, Heidi rolled up to the school. Her mouth widened with awe of the beautiful place. Horses and students walked around, speaking with friends, petting horses, and carrying heavy boxes. She jumped out and was immediately greeted with the warm scent of horses. She quickly walked around her trailer to unload Stitch. The handsome gelding was obviously confused by his new surroundings. Heidi stroked him softly before leading him to the stable. After a while, they reached the main stable and stepped onto the matt in the aisle. Stitch looked around tensely, before backing up, faster and faster. ”Stitch! Cut it out!” Heidi groaned with her horses incompetence. The horse finally stopped. Heidi was relived, but quickly learned that the gelding wasn’t giving up this easy, for he planted his feet into the ground and wouldn’t budge. Heidi felt frustration kicking in, ”Really? Is this nessasary? You’ll be fine, I promise.”

Stitch

Stitch finally left the musty old trailer into a new place. Stitch was confused, ”Whats going on? Why are we here?” Heidi stroked him, and he had no choice but to follow her. Stitch was worried that at any moment something would pop out and hurt him. Finally he was led to a barn and thought to himself ”Nope. No way I’m going in there.” Heidi insisted and he backed up quickly. He figured he might back into something and stopped. ”No way I’m leaving this spot silly human.”

    we try and we fall

    but we live another day

name; Harold Ray Travis
nickname; Twitty
gender; male
age; 22
birth date; April, 18th
birth place; Gloucester, England.

horse; Roulette and Abe
discipline; eventing

sexuality; pansexual
crush; n/a
relationship status; single

other information; n/a for now

Harold is very easy-going, to the point where he may seem to be careless. He can always have a good time, whether he is alone with with someone else. Everyday is an adventure to him and there has never been a time when he felt uncomfortable when people laughed at him for being silly. In fact, he loves making people laugh and being the center of attention. Never is he loud mouthed, unless the time calls for it, and he is a complete gentleman to everyone.
There is also the curious, if not rebellious, side to him. It doesn't matter what it was, he always wanted to learn about anything. He is a quick learner. However, he was often hasty, lightheaded, and impulsive. He was also known to lose his temper, and let his frustration get the better of him. Harold is stubborn and willful about his personal opinions, even when things looked hopeless and everyone disagreed with him. Once he set himself upon a course he would see it through till the end, and would allow nothing to stop him.
Harold's mother named him after the singer Harold Jenkins, or Conway Twitty as he's known. So she calls him Twitty and if he lets you call him that, you're special to him.
Harold had a fairly normal life. He grew up in Gloucester, taking riding lessons of course, and went to school there. As he got more advanced in his riding, he and his family traveled around England for shows and such.

    this life is ours

name; Connor Allen James
nickname; none
gender; male
age; nineteen
birth date; October, 27th
birth place; Newark, United Kingdom

horse; Lenora
discipline; show jumping

sexuality; panromantic demisexual
crush; n/a
relationship status; single

other information; n/a for now

Connor is a quiet and distant, if not unsocial, person. He just isn't good with interacting and starting up a conversation. You have to approach him first to even start to talk to him. He rarely talks to people unless it is to offer help with planning a hunt, asking for help (which he prefers not to do, as he sees it as a way for people to see him as weak), or for an occasional sarcastic remark. Connor feels as if he would be burdening someone if he tried to interact with them any time other than necessary, and his 'people skills' are 'rusty'.
However, if you do get him to talk, you will fine that even though he is insecure and soft spoken, Connor has quite the sense of humor, though it tends to be a little sarcastic and if not a tad rude. Still he tries to be a completely gentleman to everyone and maintains a cheerful and overall nice demeanor, just a quite one. He doesn't like to show his feelings to others. He is not fast to warm up to anyone, but once he does he will protect you with all that he has.
Connor's mother died when he was twelve. She was a horse rider as well, and taught him almost everything he knows about horses, and she died during a cross-country course. Connor constantly works hard, though never more than his horse can take, and tries to make his mother proud.

A Game of Chance; Meet Roulette. She is a full blooded Thoroughbred mare, standing at around 16.5 HH and at the age of eleven, she is a champion Eventing horse. Her sire is Devil's Gem and her dam was known as Ginger Snap. She is a beautiful bay mare with a white half pastern on her front left hoof. Harold named her Roulette after the famous Russian Game. She is an unpredictable horse and riding her really is a game of chance. Except with children. She is well behaved and gentle with kids. Both her and Harold excel is Cross Country and Show Jumping, but Dressage is their weak point.

Image
The Liberator: Meet Abe. He is a TB Percheron cross and looks more like a Friesian than anything. He is a four year old stallion and is being trained by Harold in dressage, jumping (mainly for fun and not competitions), and western. Don't be fooled by his large frame. This boy has a lot of get up and go. He was used for racing and trail before Harold bought him and he still thinks he's supposed to go fast. He is sweet sometimes, but likes his way. And you better make sure you have a good lock on his stall, he has a knack for getting loose.

Image
Second & Sebring; Say hello to Lenora. She is a full Morgan Horse mare at the age of ten years. Her dam was Wishful Thinking and her sire was known as Dazzle Me Thunder. She is around 15.6 HH and a beautiful buckskin dapple. She would do anything for her rider, Connor, as he would for her, and rarely causes trouble. The Morgan is usually calm with another rider, but she is not fond of strangers. If you are a friend on Connor's, and is you give her treats, then she will be okay with you. Lenora is trained in show jumping and cross-country, but her and Connor mainly do show jumping because Connor is still a bit wary of cross country riding. Lenora was name after Connor's mother, and her show name after the song by Of Mice & Men.

Harold muttered a curse under his breath as he saw the many trailers in the school's car park. There was little doubt in his mind that it wouldn't be so crowded, but he had some hope there would be less people than this. He took a deep breath and decided to deal with whatever happens when it happens.
His sister sat in the seat next to him, annoyed that she would have to drive the truck and trailer back home. She wasn't really into horses like Harold, though she did ride occasionally. She sat in the truck as Harold parked and got out to unload the horses.
Abe began pawing at the trailer as he waited to get out of the stupid trailer. Roulette was similarly eager to get out, but she was more calm about it and knew Harold wouldn't leave them in there.
Harold gently clipped on Abe's lead rope and began talking to him in a smooth, calming voice as he lead the young stallion out of the trailer. The horse's ears swiveled around as he took in his surroundings. Then someone slammed a car door and he hopped onto his hind legs for a moment, not enough to be a full rear, more like a hop.
Harold decided to take Abe in and get him settled before getting Roulette out. He knew that Abe would continue to act up out in the mess of people and horses and that would make Roulette start to freak out. Once Abe was a bit calmer, Harold patted his neck and led him towards his stall.

Connor's father pulled the truck and small trailer into the lot and parked. He got out of the truck as soon as the vehicle stopped, excited to get Lenora out and to see the school. His dad took care of unloading his two bags and tack gear while he went back to get Lenora out.
Connor opened the trailer, which looked small and unpleasant next to some of the luxurious trailers in the lot, and viewed the mare inside. The dappled mare looked over at him, her eyes wide and ears moving quickly as she listened to her surroundings. She stayed still as her owner clipped on her lead and brought her out of the trailer.
Connor picked up his tack gear, leaving his bags for a second trip, and headed towards the stable with Lenora in tow.

    Ashton Kerry Stackow
Taking his hand in a soft grip, Ashton grinned at his attempt to meet her words. She was mostly unpacked, save for a few odds and ends here and there, but for the most part, she was ready to settle in. Working in the same department as Finn didn't seem all that terrible, and maybe she could have some fun on the side. She had never really taught lessons, aside from a few spare clinics on the side, but teaching what she loved and what she lived for should be easy enough. Stepping backwards to take in her tack area, she reached for one last thing from her tack trunk; a framed photo of her jumping her horse, Hero, over a big triple bar oxer. Mounting it on a nail underneath her saddle rack, she turned back to Finn and began to speak again. "Thanks for that," she began, rubbing her hands together. "So, do you think there'll be any real exceptional riders this year? I'm kind of new to this, but I think I've seen a couple of promising kids,"

Cassidy, running late as usual, smiled at her mum, waving off all her worries. "I'll be fine, mum." she told her, getting out of the beat up truck and getting out her two horses. She patted her small grey Arabian's neck, leading some of her closest friends forwards. She stopped them, grabbing her general English saddle for Dove and resting it on her small frame. Continuing on, she set Val's large Western saddle on his back, before managing to balance his XC saddle on top of it. With a sigh, she hooked the three bridles on her arm, before securing the two lead ropes in her hand, grabbing her suitcase in the other. "This isn't so bad, is it?" she asked of her horses. Shaking herself, she started to walk towards the barn, figuring she'd set her stuff down in Val's stall until she knew which dorm she was in.

Kara turned her freckled face up to meet the considerably taller boys. She blushed, but quickly recovered.
"I could so do with a hand! You seem to be the only one who's noticed. I'm Kara, it's nice to meet you! Could you possibly take Pie? She's after my hair, she seems to think it's her hay.." She handed the boy one of the lead ropes, before glancing with her brown eyes at him, smiling.


CASTLE ROMANTIC
tags;; pisces promising, ty jackson, kara elderflower

Thoughts rushed through Roman's mind: Who was this strange male human speaking to Roman's beloved owner? How dare he hold his best friend Pie's lead rope? This man must be stopped! Roman snorted right in his face, and then trod on his toe, just for good measure.


PISCES PROMISING
tags;; castle romantic, ty jackson, kara elderflower

Pie rolled her eyes at Roman. Stupid stallion, always trying to be overprotective. Pie knew when she needed to behave, and that was now. She nipped Roman in the neck, before shuffling towards the man's horse. She snorted at him in greeting.

Tagged;; Kara, Castle Romantic, Pisces Promising

"Nice to meet you too Kara. Of course I can take Pie." He said, taking the mare's leadrope off of Kara. He petted Pie gently on the neck, greeting the new horse. He looked over at Roman, who snorted in his face then stepped on his foot. Ty muttered a curse, pushing the stallion off of him. "oi. I'm not going to steal Pie, I'm just helping Kara out." He said, good-humouredly. He'd been trodden on before, and by heavier horses. It wasn't such a big deal. He chuckled at Pie disciplining Roman, and looked over at the stallion. "See, even your girlfriend agrees with me." He said, turning his attention back to Kara. "So, are you a first year?" He asked.

✡ S h a k i r a V a l e n c i a ✡
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
horses; Paco, Vogue, Luna ♦ female ♦ nineteen ♦ location riding school/stall/main building ♦ tagged; -


"Easy now, Luna calm, calm girl," she spoke softly to her young dapple grey purebred arabian mare; Luna as she loaded her into the three-stall horse trailer her very unsupportive father gave her. He had given it to her as a birthday present, for once he was joyful about her doing something with her life, but Shakira really knew he was extremely happy to get rid of her.Luna threw her classic arabian head around and backed up raising her front leg to protest going in with all the other horses. Shakira held her hand up to sooth and calm the vibrant mare but she didn't want to be calmed. Shakira reached for Luna's halter and held onto it tight so she couldn't throw her head up, walking the nervous mare in a circle she slowly calmed her down.

Trying again, Shakira finally loaded the mare into the float closing it behind the three horses quickly in case any of them had second ideas. Even though she did English riding she was more into the natural horsemanship to build the bond with the horses. Her oldest horse, Vogue, and her had the strongest bond of all. The prima-donna mare adored Shakira and Shakira adored her. Vogue had been Shakira's first horse before she bought Paco and rescued Luna from being sent to an slaughter house.

Both Paco and Luna used to be involved with something else than English riding. Paco had been involved with western riding and was terrible and then Shakira bought him trained him relentlessly in the art of english riding and found out that he was a natural eventer. Luna on the other hand used to be a racehorse and used to be terrible in the gates and because of her arrogant nature she was going to be sent to the meat house but Shakira saved her by seeing interest in training a purebred arabian. Shakira collapsed into her 4x4 wheeled Toyota, she was tired from trying to load Luna and Paco in all day (whom had suspected something was up). She took a moment to relax then started the car and made her way to what she thought was her escape in society.

..time skip....

She pulled into the driveway, her mouth dropped open as she studied the place she was in. It was so fancy! So beautiful Shakira had to check twice she was at the right place. In the background of her amazement she could hear Luna, Paco and Vogue whinnying and crying out in excitement. Shakira pulled her car into a packing space and got out of her vehicle. She grabbed her suitcase and backpack, tying her backpack to her suitcase she wheeled it wondering where to go to but then realized she would have to lead her horses around.

She opened the trailer and let Vogue out first whom she knew would follow her wherever she went, she grabbed Paco's halter and Luna's halter and lead them both out of the trailer, leaving her stuff in the trailer and lead them towards their stalls. She entered the massive stalls and gasped at how amazing they were. She got Luna settled first in a very large stall which was perfect for the vibrant mare. Then she got Paco sorted and wrote a little note on his stall that read "Warning this horse bites strangers" before getting her beloved Vogue sorted. Shakira raced back to her car and locked it closed her trailer grabbed her stuff and ran basically towards the main building.


;; someone wanna talk to Shakira or help her out? Not sure what to write for the intro but yeah Sorry for long post xD
