JACEGAN | WIP | 3K | COWBOYS & EQUESTRIANS
Cregan is a cowboy. Jacaerys is a hunter-jumper that moves into Stark Ranch so that he can train for the Olympics under the tutelage of Sara Stark.
He's gorgeous, and far younger than Cregan had expected him to be.
Oh. He also hates Cregan on-sight.
Blood pumps through Cregan’s veins as he steadies his mount in the box. He’s got one eye on the steer in the chute, the other on his partner as Cerwyn backs his horse’s ass into the corner of the heeler box. It’s the last run of the night and they’re up for the jackpot, meaning that unlike his partner’s mount, Cregan is more focused than he’s been all evening. It’s not much, but a thousand bucks is a thousand bucks. The cowboy’s rope is ready; the extra coils stacked in his riding hand, the excess loop tucked around his back, and he’s got a good spoke set between his fist and the rope’s honda. People are laughing and drinking in the stands while country music blares from the speakers. There’s a row of cowboys lined up alongside the fence and it’s late enough, Sara probably already has her hand on the floodlights, ready to switch them off so the arena can be worked overnight. She’s got some new Olympic hopeful in town for the summer. A rich guy from down south paying a shitload of money to train with the Sara Stark—Westeros’ leading gold medalist in three-day eventing. (And from what Cregan has gathered, he’s pretty sure the ‘student’ is a middle-aged man having a mid-life crisis and using a sizeable trust fund to escape reality.) But, all that valyrian-hunter-jumper-dressage-dance bullshit will have to wait. Tonight, Stark Ranch is clinging to its roots; serving as a dusty western playground for midnight cowboys looking to make a little cash on a Thursday evening.
SPOILER: THE 'STUDENT' IS NOT A MIDDLE-AGED MAN.
ha ha ha... wow this moodboard had no effect on me at all. zero. none. i did not sit at my computer this afternoon and write an entire chapter between screaming at solar and mayim about how i did not have time for this. i did not.
anyway...i guess a horse girl is gonna horse girl whenever the opportunity presents. ty for this beautiful moodboard and idea. i clearly have absolutely zero self-control.

“You don’t get it, Cregan. This is it for me. My entire life has been building towards one thing, and now, I’m terrified of it…but if I can’t figure out how to overcome my fears, there’s nothing left for me to live for.”
Cregan is a dusty old cowboy with more buckle bunnies beneath his belt than he’s got cattle in the back forty. Jacaerys is a young, uptight equestrian whose traumatic past haunts his every ride.
It’ll never work out—they’re from two entirely different worlds. But when Jacaerys moves to Stark Ranch to train under the tutelage of Sara Stark, they just can’t seem to stay away from one another.

HRH Targaryen Equestrians
A registered prefix, like HRH, is a unique way for a bloodline and/or a stable to be recognized in the very name of a horse. It's a sign of prestige and ownership.
Horses born downline from a heritage horse that remain at the Red Keep will include a secondary name (e.g. HRH Prince Caraxes.) It is not uncommon for people to pay large sums of money to be able to lease, buy, breed their own mounts to (if approved), and/or compete on these horses under the HRHTE umbrella.
A heritage horse will only have one name following HRH (e.g. HRH Vermax.)
All non-heritage horses in the Red Keep legally belong to HRH Targaryen Equestrians, including Onyx and Skiffy, although the original heritage horse's owner/rider will be given a percentage of ownership that is nontransferable upon death (e.g. HRH Seasmoke Skiff is owned by both Laenor and HRHTE.) Non-heritage horses are ridden at the approval of management, even by family members. In most cases, it means HRHTE decides when you ride, what horse you ride, how, where, and when you compete.

“Vermax chooses the rider he was born to choose.”
If Jacaerys had never been born, Vermax never would’ve been born, either. The horse was bred, raised, and trained for one, specific person—and for one person, only.
