[Yellow.]

↝ name. Lucas Core
↝ gender. male
↝ age. twenty-one
↝ rank. peasant/palace stable hand
↝ persona. While Lucas doesn't consider himself shy or a loner he tends to find himself alone whether it be at home or at work. He finds making friends hard because he doesn't tend to know how to talk to people and often comes off as blunt or rude when he does. It takes awhile for him to warm up to people and when he does he tends to open up more so much so that it tends to catch people off guard. He's often found with his nose in a book putting off an aura which causes people to stir clear of him.

[Consulting_Angel]

Full Name: Ashton Rouleau.
Nickname: Ash, Ashton.
Age: 21.
Gender: Male.
Birthday: 14th July.
Sexuality: Homosexual (closeted)
Role: Crown Prince of the kingdom Gwildor.
Appearance: He has short, blond hair that is straight (unlike him), and dark blue-brown eyes. He stands at around 5'6", which is a little shorter than most guys, but he absolutely hates being called short. He has a good posture, which he uses to try and make himself seem taller (it doesn't work). He has an athletic build, with a good figure, and fair skin. He has a unique marking on his left collarbone, which can only be seen if he pulls the neck of his shirt down enough - his soulmate mark.

Personality: Ashton is incredibly friendly, with a huge amount of seemingly endless energy - to the point where he doesn't really walk regularly, preferring to bounce and bound around - and is rarely in a bad mood. He's very social, and will speak to mostly everyone. However, Ashton can also be very over-the-top, with some of his reactions being dramatically fainting (and occasionally actually knocking himself out if no one catches him), or just being a complete drama queen in general, and he is not against screaming if he has to. He can also be an incredible diva when he wants to be, which is usually when something isn't going his way - a slight scratch on the hand may as well be a broken arm. He does also care deeply about those that are close to him, is incredibly loyal, and may be quite protective over them.

Likes: Dance (especially tap, jazz and ballroom), sleeping, swimming, making a fuss for no reason, horseback riding.
Dislikes: Waking up early, velvet, seafood (he's allergic), being told/teased he's short.
Fears: Snakes & heights.
Other: N/A.

Ashton walked out of the throne room, after having just been in attendance of a council meeting that his father wanted him to be a part of. He'd almost fallen asleep during it, and was now trying to figure out some way to try and wake himself back up, before he resorted to going back to bed and sleeping.
After a short while, he did return to his quarters, where he just quickly changed his outfit to something that would be a little more suited to horse riding. He figured that an hour's ride around the grounds and forest would help - and he wouldn't have to be swamped with thinking about one of several 'princely duties' that he was supposed to be focused on. He'd much rather be having a bit of fun, doing what he liked.

A few minutes later, Ashton speed-walked through the corridors of the palace, side-stepping around a couple of servants, and then outside. He ran down to the stables, and immediately approached one of horses - a Palomino mare - who was looking over a stable door.

[Yellow.]

Brushing the cost of a bay gelding he had tied outside of the stall, Lucas made quick brush at rocks to send the dirt flying from the horses coat and into the air again. It made breathing a bit hard if you had problems, but Lucas had grown up around the animals and was all to familiar with the smells of the barn. The gelding wasn’t to dirty compared to others, but he was a horse some of the royalty tended to ride so he tried to keep them a bit cleaner then the others. Not to say he didn’t take care of the others he just paid more careful attenchion to a few of them.

Not noticing the new comer to the building Lucas bends down to brush off the geldings legs, causing the horse to snort with irritation but not kick out or step away. ”Easy there big guy, I’m almost done.” He promises the horse while quickly finishing up.

[Consulting_Angel]

Ashton reached up to rub the palomino's neck, smiling warmly. The mare was one of the only horses that he'd be willing to ride, so it certainly helped that the horse liked the prince as well.
He was momentarily distracted, though, when he heard someone talking from a couple of stables down. He would have been lying if his mind didn't think for a few seconds that it was one of the horses talking, because he couldn't immediately see any other humans around. He raised an eyebrow at the puffs of dirt and dust - something that he didn't think that he'd get used to at all. Ashton gave the palomino - his palomino, he considered her - another pat, then the prince walked down to the stable that he heard the voice from.

Once he got there, Ashton looked over the door, and saw the stablehand - Lucas, he was sure his name was - brushing down the gelding's legs. Unable to help himself, Ashton said, "I sure hope you are," then he ducked down, moving himself so that he wouldn't be seen. He had to bite back a laugh, and he waited.

[Yellow.]

Moving to stand and give the gelding a pat on the shoulder Lucas smiled at the shine of the horses coat. A voice startled not only his thoughts but his body as well, his muscles jerking a bit away from the gelding without his approval. The gelding of course did not like the quick action, tossing his head back to pull at the lead tying him to the stall. ”Sorry,” he mumbled in apology for the horse before turning to try and find the source of the voice, knowing all kinds of people came down to the stable at different times.

It took Lucas walking away from the gelding to see just who the voice belonged to, grimacing a bit at the sight before him although he didn’t show it. ”Prince Ashton, I didn’t notice you had walked in.” Lucas apologized quickly to the prince.

[Consulting_Angel]

Although his words hadn't gotten him the desired effect - he had hoped that the stablehand would have initially thought that it was the gelding that had spoken, but he supposed that after being around the horses long enough, he would know what sort of thing to expect - Ashton just waited until Lucas had finally spotted him. Smiling warmly, Ashton replied, "You are forgiven," and he paused for a few moments, before asking, "You aren't too busy, are you?" Without waiting for an answer, he continued with his request, assuming that he should probably just get to the point, "I'd like to have Goldrush tacked up, for a ride," he pointed down towards where the palomino mare was stood in her stable, although he guessed that Lucas would know the names of all of the horses by now. Ashton was also counting on the fact that hopefully Lucas wouldn't be aware that he shouldn't really be going out riding alone without a knight or a servant to accompany him, even if it was just for a walk around the grounds and the forest - but sometimes he just liked to have a bit of time away from the rules.

[Yellow.]

Lucas listened to the princes full request before nodding in response. He had guessed why the prince was in the stable since most of his rank shied away from the place because it was never clean enough. ”Nothing that cannot wait sire. It won’t take but a moment to brush her off and put the tack on. Is there another horse I should tack up for another rider after I get Goldrush tacked up?” Lucas asked the prince, knowing all to well that the prince does not go out riding alone. He doesn’t of course know that it’s not aloud, just that when the prince comes he has to tack up more then one horse.

Moving to grab the saddle and bridle off the rack while waiting for the princes response for if he needed another horse. Normally he would wait for the questions before moving away, but he was in the prince’s line of sight and the prince seemed to be in a bit of a rush.

[Consulting_Angel]

Ashton shook his head slightly in response. "No, thank you. Just Goldrush today," he answered, watching as the stablehand already started to get the tack. He moved over to the mare's stable, and gave her another rub on the neck, and he ran his fingers carefully through her mane. He didn't often spend a little extra time around the stable - he usually just focused on getting what he wanted quickly - but today, he didn't mind the brief conversation. Ashton hesitated for a moment. He guessed that Lucas didn't know of the rule that he had to be with someone else when out riding, but he didn't want to risk him diverting anyone that might come looking for him to where he was. "Oh, and..." he added, turning towards Lucas, one hand on Goldrush's neck, "...if it's not too much trouble, don't tell anyone that I'm out, if anyone asks," Ashton smiled innocently. "I just need to have some time alone, y'know? A-and I know to be careful. I'm a drama queen, not an idiot,"
