Poise has always been Count’s number one priority. It seems as if he won’t do anything unless he’s assured he can do it with grace. Rolling in mud? He’ll step around it, thank you. No need to get his hooves dirty— he’s not a bumbling colt. Riding with his favorite master in the forests surrounding his home? A steady pace is the way to go, or even a canter if he’s feeling particularly daring, but a full out run? Where he could scuff his legs on branches and other unmentionables? Not for this horse, oh no!
He’s near insufferable when it comes to competitions (and eventually had to be unofficially pulled from them entirely) because of his need to look the best he can even while sacrificing productivity. But, what Count will never admit is that he’s extremely shy when it comes to performing in obstacle courses or in any type of show. Poor experiences as a clumsy colt during training where he’d repeatedly mess up gives him stage fright like nothing else, and he disguises it in the only way he can— by being as stubborn and hoity as physically possible. His favorite human can sometimes coax him through runs through courses, but he almost always has to be unaware of any other audience. His insecurity is such a shame, though; without the stigma of eyes on him, Count’s inner grace shines through, and he reveals himself to be one of the most sure-footed horses in the stables. When he’s distracted and in his element, the other members of his herd bring young colts and fillies near the training ring to show them the correct way to hold themselves in the courses.
