Assumption: You have never ridden a horse.
Oooo, this is a fun one, salkfjas
I have! I've ridden more than one horse, more than once.
(Actual storytime) (This is from the Assumptions meme!)
In late highschool and in the few years after I had a close friend who owned a horse (Billy) and agisted him, and was responsible for him. She basically was allowed to get him when she got her driver's license.
I was the kind of friend (and still kind of am, energy willing) that you could drag around to all your chores and I'd just be there. So I'd be there when she went shopping. I would be there when she went to get horse food. I would be there when she did homework. I would be there when she went to visit her horse and brush him down and feed him etc.
I helped with basic chores and watched from the sidelines and mostly hung out with her dog, Huskee, who was not a husky, but a borderline collie x corgi who barked nonstop at that horse, who she alas, could not herd.
Through this friend I actually learned about Natural Horsemanship, to the point where I actually went to a couple of Pat Parelli seminars (run by Pat) in like 2000/2001. It was the thing that really sparked my interest in animal training, especially humane, fear free animal training (and clicker training specifically, since Pat was teaching marker training at the time, and said friend started using it on their dog, Huskee).
I never rode, for a long time, because I was happy on the sidelines, and also I went there so my friend could ride her horse, not so I could like, steal her horse out from under her lol. I don't think her horse liked me very much anyway (later I'd find out that was pretty much true, it was a zero respect relationship, maybe he knew I was a doormat lmao).
Anyway, said friend had another friend who was extremely horse intense, and she got her own horse (Coda) , that she then never really took the time to ride. Coda was kind of nuts. Billy was the kind of horse who walked so slow you felt like you were going backwards, Coda had one speed: gallop. Coda and Billy got on great.
But Coda was pretty neglected, and so I often spent time with him while my friend did her chores with Billy. I was used to bringing out food, or changing water etc. so I did that for Coda sometimes. And after a while, friend was like 'it would be cool if we could trail ride together, how about you learn on Billy first since he's so slow and sedate.' And friend was like 'I'll ride Coda because I have more experience.' This made sense! She wanted me to stay safe!! But...
Billy was slow, sedate, and did not give a shit about me. This is a horse that stepped on my feet (on purpose), who deliberately angled towards low-hanging branches to scrape me off the saddle (hilarious, but also not really), and made it clear how much he wasn't interested in anyone else riding him in the most passive aggressive way a horse possibly can.
Coda, on the other hand, had a reputation for being wild and unstable. He'd tossed multiple riders more than once, hadn't been trained with Natural Horsemanship (like...kind of? But not really) and was not halter-broke by the time friend-of-friend got him, so just getting him to accept a halter and a saddle at all was huge, and anything beyond that was like 'welp, good luck.'
However, it was obvious trying to do anything with me and Billy was not going to work out. So...Coda it was.
And idk how to explain it, but Coda and I just got along. It was on the other hand terrifying, because his default movement was 'canter' and all he wanted to do, all he wanted to do, was gallop up and down granite hills as quickly as possible and spook at fucking everything. It wasn't his fault, he wasn't taken out much and he had that kind of personality. He once saw a kangaroo in the distance and spun a full 360 degrees, and I ended up half off him, hanging on for dear life, while friend just stared at me and said: 'how did you not fall off, that was insane. You might actually be good at this.'
Well. No, I wasn't, I just had a good grip, lmao.
So we went on extremely stressful trail rides together. Billy thankfully curbed some of Coda's GOTTA GO FAST instincts but only to a point, so I had to be pretty hypervigilant nonstop because that dude bunched his hindquarters what felt like every ten seconds, and I can't really blame him, it's what he loved to do most. He was just a terrible horse to learn to ride on, lmao, even if we did get along.
I haven't ridden since and honestly haven't felt much of an inclination to. I'd be too heavy now anyway. And I'm pretty certain I'd be bad at it. When your first experience is 'placid horse who generally accepts everyone but stares at you in a desultory manner and makes sure you know - while feeding him / brushing him / watering him etc. - that you do not matter in the grand scheme of things' followed by 'I like you! NOW I WILL FLING MYSELF DOWN THIS GRANITE HILL WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE WE ARE ALL SCREAMING IN EXCITEMENT AND NOT FEAR' you think 'actually I don't need to ride the murder ponies, it's fine.'
Anyway, yeah, I have ridden a horse.
#asks and answers#personal#things i learned in short order is that i don't like most horse people#they are some of the most opinionated folks (in a not good way) i've ever met#horses are expensive#they're pretty easy to clicker train#horses have very clear ways of letting you know they don't like you#that aren't violent outright but still can cause harm#Connemara mares are really nice (not mine or friend's horse)#(but pony of owner of stables where we agisted)#Pat Parelli is cool and he was very patient with me#and a little bewildered as to why i was at his ticketed seminars#(my friend paid for me to go so she could have some company)#when i had no horse and didn't want to ride one but asked polite questions#and when he saw me the second time he was like 'u have a horse yet'#and i was like 'no sir i do not'#he was nice to me anyway#i lived a lot of life in a very short period of time when i was younger sdalfkjasd

i miss horses
#horseback riding is insanely expensive in big cities though#idk if ive talked about it here but i did do horseback riding for i think six? or seven years? something like that#i was super lucky i got to do that bc i was able to get my equipment 2nd hand and#and my mom had 2 jobs and she thinks every kid should have at least one sports hobby and#she knew how much being able to do riding would mean to me so she made it happen and#it did so good for me so i'm very thankful#*did so much good#man i was in such a good shape when i still did riding. by good shape i mean great ass.#anyways i was even pretty good at it. the coach always wabted me to compete but i was like#''hmm no ♡'' bc i didnt want to have to learn and remember what to do at which point#i do sometimes think about what if i started competing#probably not much bc idk if it works with someone elses horse but hey i could have gotten ribbons#anyways i miss it#i dont think i could even get on a horse anymore. i need to start stretching regularly#also im probably too heavy to ride a lot of horses#but i want to brush a horse so bad rn#pretty recently after i stopped riding someone asked me if i did ride bc they could see it on the way i carry myself#which was interesting but i get what they meant#sigh my posture was so much better too#also im kinda scare i wouldnt bounce back from falling like i did when i was younger#it's a miracle i never broke anything or worse#leevi talks

On the phone with my aunt today:
A: so it's settled then, this year you'll come visit us in New York!
Me: yeah, uh, can we also, idk, maybe visit another state?
A: oh? Which one? I was thinking Hawa-
Me: Texas.
A: That's.. unexpected! Why Texas?
Me:
A:
Me: the landscape? Is cool?
A, audibly concerned: you wanna see the desert?
Me: Sure...😀
#how do i tell her that i just wanna get swooned by a Southern hottie 😔#do i send her 'save a horse ride a cowboy' as a means to convince her?#bc she knows that I'm “too European city gal” to want to visit a state like Texas for no reason#also my leftist ass visiting a republican state? she prob thinks that i have officially lost it#random blurb#southern accent#texas#usa#southern

In ep 38, we found out that Nian Shilan's favourite play is "Niangzi Pass". Niangzi (娘子) means "Lady" and is a reference to the famous Princess Pingyang, the third daughter of the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan. During the uprising of the Li family against the preceding Sui Dynasty, Princess Pingyang was personally credited with raising an army of 70000 which she led during the capture of Chang'an at her father's side. "Niangzi's Pass", was the name given to the location Princess Pingyang garrisoned with her army - called "Lady's Army" (娘子军). When she died, she was given the rare honour of a military funeral to pay tribute to her accomplishments. Considering Shilan's background as the sister of a distinguished military official and her temperament, it makes perfect sense she would admire and idolize Princess Pingyang.
#empresses in the palace#legend of zhen huan#cdrama#nian shilan#if you're seeing this again it's because it wouldn't show up in the tags yesterday so I had to delete it#making an effort now to post it again#anyways#I don't have time to make gifs anymore but I wanted to share this cool bit#shilan in the book was a proficient horse rider#I don't think this is empathized in the show#though iirc shilan does mention that she used to go riding with the emperor as a ce'fujin

Yesterday I've been doing some proper physical exercise for the first time since last year and I'm just imagining how proud my f/os would be of me🥹
#it was just a 20 minute beginners home workout and I can feel every muscle in my body now but I think they'd be so happy I pushed through!#I've had particularly Heinz and Maximilian on my mind I think they would be sooo happy that I'm trying to take better care of myself💖#Heinz because he's always there anyway of course but I kind of imagine Max is probably overall the fittest out of my f/os#he seems like the kind of guy who'd want to be an example for his soldiers and always hold himself to the same standards as them#he'd be so supportive and cheer me on and be proud of me every time I get myself to do something😭💖💖#I've never particularly enjoyed doing sports (aside horse riding but in the past year I didn't have time anymore for that bc of uni😭😭)#so I didn't really do anything anymore after I finished school#I started doing simple home workouts last year but in winter my mental health went a little📉 and then I had no motivation to keep going#dunno how long I'll go through with it this time but better than nothing I guess#again with the home workouts lmao bc driving to the nearest gym ain't worth the time for me and I'd need some basic fitness first anyway#I'm doing it mainly for health reasons but this time I'm also motivated to actually get a bit stronger#I don't mind looking like a stick figure and I'm overall content with my body (maybe it could help me to look a bit more masc tho?👀👀)#but I know especially for my posture and such it would be good if my muscles were just a tad bit more developed#my mum was proud of me too when I told her about it hehe :) she works in healthcare she's always a little concerned#she's just a little worried about me getting health issues when I'm older that could be avoided by taking proper care of my body now#I get where she's coming from but it's not easy but at least I'm motivated to try again now :)#selnia talks

I am rewatching bridgerton s3 again before part 2 drops and am hoping beyond hoping that Hyacinth will turn out to be bit of a tomboy when she gets her story
#she’s always running after her older brothers when they do some cool shit#Like how in ep1 Benedict Anthony and Gregory run out of the room to try out that new bow Colin brought and Hyacinth the lil cutie#just scuttles after them. plus doesn’t she like LOVE to leave her brothers in the dust and best them in everything?#I think Colin mentioned that she always wants to win everything and we all know that she always tries to one up Gregory#so like I want her to do some ”boy“ stuff in her story?#to be independent/have her own head a bit like Eloise?#but she also actually does something like Kate? maybe also riding? or going on hunts? though I think maybe that’s to fsrfetched the time#maybe they stick to the bow & arrow detail they introduced this season? would be nice too…#with the riding it doesn’t even have to be like competitive riding/betting on a winners and more like just. general#general contact with horses. just seeing her brush their fur or pet them…#I just think that if we have Benedict’s artsy type in the family we need a sporty girl/jock as well. and I want that to be Hyacinth#OUUU MAYBE FENCING????#we saw the 3 bothers fencing in their garden. maybe Hyacinth just nags them long enough & they eventually teach her/she picks up some moves.#THAT WOULD BW SONCOOL#bridgerton#bridgerton s3#hyacinth bridgerton#minee

Unfortunately X-rays of Molly’s back today showed she has significant kissing spines (which would explain the bucking and random outbursts when ridden) so she’s no longer a ridden prospect :(
#I say :( but I’m SO FUCKING SAD MAN#she’s SUCH a nice pony and I love her w all my heart#but realistically I can’t keep a paddock mate or have 3 horses fit in the paddocks#we don’t have the room for 3 big horses and I don’t feel comfortable rehoming her in case they ignore the KS and try ride her#and they get hurt or she gets passed around so much or ends up in a bad situation#so unfortunately I’m gonna end up putting her down :((((((((((((#if someone wants the body for dissection that’d be awesome but otherwise she’s going the DT route cos we have nowhere to bury her 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲

@lustleftbehind cont. from (X)
This wasn't his worst hookup either, but that didn't make it any less embarrassing as he picked himself up off the floor, the sheet that had been covering him as he fell being tossed over the busted lamp. "Naw, only thing wounded is m' pride. Leave it t' Beau t' fuck up a damn roll in th' hay. Ought-t' throw 'em in th' horse trough fer this..." The last part was more so muttered to himself as his phone was shut off and then dropped haphazardly onto the sheet at his feet with a sigh.
"You still lookin' t' save a horse or..." Did he ruin the mood beyond saving.
#instead of music i just made it his phone going off lmao#beau is his brother btw lol#absolute sibling behavior#but yeah anaya have fun saving a horse and riding a cowboy hfdsf#the hat stays ON during sex#she can wear it if she wants tho uwu#muse: colt maizen#lustleftbehind#suggestive tw

i love saying young man and young lady and ma'am when i'm scolding people. it's like bruh but way cuntier
#and 'sir' isn't on the list cuz any guy that i would scold will get 'young man' from me. even if older than me#and i respect my elders enough to not be inclined to scold someone so significantly older than me that 'young man' would be absurd#as in like retirement age people. if i had beef with someone that age i would not take a scolding tone i would take a polite but firm tone#but anyone between 15 and 60 years old is free game. if i need to reprimand u#all guys get: “young man....!” :/#and girls younger than me get “young lady!” :[#and women older than me get “ma'am.... ma'am..?” 0_o#and it really works! idk maybe i just have a formidable air abt me but#y'all should totally try it! i mean i'm sure this depends on the social role you have and gender presentation & vibes etc#but for me as an adult young[ish] looking super feminine person#saying “young man!” in a firm tone to a guy my age or older works like a riding crop with a horse. he'll go wherever i indicate and i don't#even have to be forceful about it. i hold invisible reins#like i remember a long time ago i was working at a bookstore#and there was strictly a no food policy with clear signs n all#and this one dude about my age sat down in one reading nook with his chinese takeaway meal and started to dine :/#and i walked up to him and hit him with my “young man!?”#and my god the speed of his jumping up and packing away his meal. and the sheepish look. :>#and with women about my age it's tricky -- i have to choose between 'young lady' and 'ma'am' based on two factors:#1) which one would likely flatter her and which one would ruffle her feathers? as in does she seem like a doormat#which means 'ma'am' would make her feel good and 'young lady' would push her poor self esteem buttons#or does she seem confident and regal and vain which means 'young lady' would probably be more flattering cuz it indicates she looks young#whereas 'ma'am' coming from a woman her own age would be like a slap in the face like i'm calling her old.#or does she seem normal self-esteem wise as in neither of the above issues. in which case 'ma'am' would be the norm#and 2) which effect am i looking to have in that particular interaction? do i want her feeling slightly flattered or slightly offended?#and when it comes to people under 15 i would not use these terms or the scolding tone. just like with people over 60.#i would take a polite but firm tone if i had to have words with someone under 15. like. people that age don't need any more scolding#on top of what they might alr get at home or school and whatnot#and also they don't need any more of the gender binary stuff that they prob alr get at home and school.#i might say 'bruh' tho depending on the situation

"Am I a fool to trust you?"
Words spoken across the sea, across a life time, to a former self and at the precipice of change. Astrea couldn't remember every day spent with the pirate, but that conversation engraved her memory and settled to stay — haunting her during moments of indecision, easing her through loneliness, through loss, lifting a match to her magic when she needed it most.
"Am I a fool to trust you?" Yes, he'd told her then. Perhaps, she'd wondered since. And now, where would she be without it?

i need fgo to acknowledge servants horses more
#achilles isn't enough i need to know how each servant is around their horse(s)#i think that duryodhana has two main steeds and would have a hard time controlling them for when he's being petulant#highest ranking older mare (12-16) + her offspring (4-8) the older one would have a stubborn and calm temperament who doesn't respect duryo#and her daughter would have the same kind of chill but would be more playful and curious. dur is talking with his brothers & she trots over#starts nuzzling and sniffing his clothes because she's bored. duryo keeps talking but starts petting her#i also think duryodhana has instinctively good balance and he's good at multitasking so showmanship-like riding comes to him easily#but he's shit at all horse maintenance. especially hoof care; he's convinced his girls are going to kick him and doesn't want to even try i#but he wants good care for his horses so he watches over the servants tending to them. bossy yet incompetent duryodhana 🥰#we know georgios is a good owner but i think he likes rein maintenance & spends a fair amount of time making sure bayards armor is spotless#lalter gives out snacks more easily than her counterpart (going after the wild hunt takes energy! llamrei is a good girl!)#percival is great with horses in general and he enjoys taking care of them and will help out any other knights if they're having trouble#ashvatthaman is (un)surprisingly really good with young stallions. he's not afraid of them at all and will scold them for their mean deeds#horse tries to eat his clothes or nibble his hair and he's like. oi stop that you bastard. and the horse listens (will eat his hair later)#prince of lanling is very thorough with horses getting enough feed and water and will make sure they're well rested#arjuna is like. the main character of a horse movie. he's emotionally sensitive with them & bonds with horses easily (who sense his worries#works really really hard to be good at riding and wants to leave no room for mistakes. really aware of his posture at all times#we had dogy event please give me hors event... horses cute and underrated<-most biased man talking

what do you guys think kaeyas horse would be called :-)
#x#gi posting#i told myself i would post abt smth else bc i’ve had kaeya on the brain too much but. Well.#i’m trying to figure out what i want from his horse. i Think i want crepus to have let kaeya pick her out to learn to ride her when he was#still relatively young#maybe 11ish? and i think diluc mustve obviously known how to ride beforehand#maybe he’s had his ‘own’ horse for a little longer too#anyways. all i know is that kaeyas is a mare (stil researching the breed. let me be) and she’s an absolute nightmare to handle in the modern#day. she only lets kaeya groom her and whatnot🥹 she wasn’t taken when varka left bc it honestly would’ve been a safety hazard to even try#i like to think she was more chill during his teen years but became nastier after. you know#also she is kaeya’s one blind spot i think it would be SOOOO funny if he’s convinced she’s still his gorgeous angel when everyone else#is just like kaeya she’s a MENACE#also he calls her darling when he talks to her. he’s such a horse girl in my heart
