Competing Against The Odds (FreeMustang + cattamer)

[FreeMustang]

"Umm... Maybe Memory but Admiral wouldn't do it" Anna sighed "He'd just need work" she shrugged "You wouldn't be interested in something like that would you?"

 

[cattamer]

"Who me? Tell me a hour before and I'll be ready!" Riley replied enthusiastically.

 

[FreeMustang]

Anna giggled "How about after this competition?" she mused "Think about it... We ride from the south east tip of Florida all the way out to California" she smiled "Of course... What are you going to do for a pack horse?"

 

[cattamer]

"My grandma I'm sure will lend me a pack horse." Riley grinned, "and that sounds great... now we just gotta win the competition and we'll get to do a thing on each of our bucket lists!"

 

[FreeMustang]

"If we can get this vaulting thing down then we'll be good" Anna said confidently

 

[cattamer]

"First thing first... catch Miles..." Riley mumbled. "Now... what do you want to eat?"

 

[FreeMustang]

"Chicken Cesar salad" Anna said simply, she had to keep her figure!

 

[cattamer]

"...copy cat... my usual meals are basically that or sandwiches minus any chicken or something."

 

[FreeMustang]

"Whoa... Are you saying you're like a vegetarian...?" Anna asked in shock

 

[cattamer]

"Surprised?" Riley asked. "I just don't like the taste, or the thought it might be someone's pet."

 

[FreeMustang]

(Are you a vegetarian in real life? xD )


You realize that they're not pets.... They're raised for meat. Most in factory farms.... Ok there's a good point in not eating meat for just that reason alone..." Anna blushed "But gosh they do taste good... To me..."

 

[cattamer]

(Yep. Mostly Vegan though c; )


"Yeah, well, I'd feel bad if I accidentally ate someone's pet. So yeah. That's reason enough... Other than the fact it just doesn't taste too great to me. Everyone to their own choices."

 

[FreeMustang]

(Really? No dairy or eggs huh?)


"Right..." Anna nodded awkwardly "Never would have guessed, you know you being a self described delinquent with a bike.... That you'd be a vegetarian and really care that much"

 

[cattamer]

(Not currently. I actually don't really like dairy, and cheese makes me throw up...)


"Oh, well, everyone is picky in their own way. I'm a delinquent because I'm a rebel who has been to jail. I have a bike because I like it better than a car." Riley grinned.

 

[FreeMustang]

(Are you lactose intolerant?)


"We pick great date conversation topics don't we?" Anna joked, figuring his jail time might get a little touchy.

 

[cattamer]

(I have no idea. Some things just make me sick. I can't eat fresh banana's either, though dried and frozen are just fine. I'm not sure what the deal is.)


"Oh, yeah, totally." Riley said a little sarcastically, and then he snickered. "You know, you actually do look great when you're all dressed up and not trying to get me killed."

 

[FreeMustang]

(Hmm, texture and smell likely. I can't stand the smell of cucumbers, it makes my want to throw up. Literally)


"I really did think Memory would have done better than she did" Anna sighed "I' kind of wondering if Admiral would be able to do it... But on him it would be so difficult to jump up on him..."

 

[cattamer]

(I'll eat all your cucumbers then. I love them. As in I'll eat them everyday for weeks and still love them)


"Uh, let's not try that..." Riley said quietly, "I'd prefer not to die before I even reach the age of 30. It's on my bucket list, so let's not tempt fate."

 

[FreeMustang]

(I can't stand them xD I like pickles though! Vinigar like changes them! xD )


"I was thinking the same thing about Miles... That horse scares me..." Anna admitted.

 

[cattamer]

(EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW)


"Feed him treats and he'll be your bestest friend." Riley replied, "He loves apples, too, so there's that. Just don't feed him grain."

 

[FreeMustang]

"I wouldn't feed him extra grain... Only cow that would be like adding gas to the fire" Anna shook her head, doubting that treats would help Miles riding wise.

 

[cattamer]

Riley eyed her, "Trust me, treats work wonders on horses. Try it. You'll see. Just don't carry them in your back pocket. Anywhere but there."

 

[FreeMustang]

"Because hiding them in your bra is so much safer" Anna laughed, having had bad experiences with that "This is why I don't do treats... Not until all the work is done and right before they're put up for the night"

 

[cattamer]

Riley laughed at that one. "Well, I had a horse take my entire back pocket off, but I still use treats. As long as you don't let them get pushy, and make them wait patiently for their treat, they don't usually get bad habits."

 

[FreeMustang]

"Fine... I'll give Mile's an apple" Anna relented
