[D1 LA] Taking the horse out

[Iuchi Dong-Ha]

"The Otaku might not agree." Dong-Ha huffed, rolling his eyes. "As for me, I'm happy with Poppy." The calm mare earned few more pats. "She's not the flashiest or the fastest of horses, but she gets me where I want to go in one piece."

[Matsu Yurio]

"Well, that is the role of horses so we cannot complain that she does what is asked of her."

[Iuchi Dong-Ha]

Iuchi laughed. "Not really no. But you know Matsu-san, some of the animals are more skittish than others. Some are even afraid of their own shadows. The wild horses... tend to run away from anything... and everything. It takes a great patience to tame a horse, let alone raise one that's obedient and yet, confident."

[Matsu Yurio]

"Really? So different to our placid little ponies. You have brought significant change to the Empire in many ways, Iuchi-san. I hope all of it is as good as the horses."

[Iuchi Dong-Ha]

"I guess only time will tell that, Matsu-san." Looking at the sky, Dong-Ha noted what the time was. "I think I should take poppy back and prepare for the evening. I hear there's a banquet."

[Matsu Yurio]

Yurio followed his gaze up to the sky.

"Yes. I guess we will see if our foods have drifted apart as well."

[Iuchi Dong-Ha]

"That.. might be the case. Either way, it was nice talking to you, Matsu-san." he bowed towards the small man. "Maybe we'll meet again."

[Matsu Yurio]

"Perhaps we will, there are many days of contest ahead of us."

Another bow born out of military precision was made.

[Iuchi Dong-Ha]

"Take care then, Matsu-san." With those words, Dong-Ha turned Poppy around, leading her towards the stables.

Yurio headed back to the yurts and the oncoming appointment with cheese.
