"Why, sure you can!" Zhestkiy said, cheerful. "It's always nice to have the company of a beautiful lady.
"Do you have a horse of your own?"
He led her to the stables and got his horse, Aloe. Aloe was a beautiful brown horse with a black mane and a peculiar black spot near his right front hoof. Zhestkiy had a strong bound with him, and the horse seemed comforted when his owner petted him, waiting for Lynke and Drintarr.

The stable was divided into two halves: one, the closest to the entrance of the inn, was for traveler's horses. The other half was for horses owned by the inn or those who worked there.
It didn't take long to find a good horse-a bright bay Shagya Arab mare. I could tell by the way it moved that it had a good stride, and could cover distance well.
Ignoring the tack, I looked around for Zesthkiy. When I found him, I walked over to him, keeping a light hand on the horse's neck. It was a very obedient animal, and I knew she'd be a good horse to ride.

"Drintarr! That's a fine horse you've picked!"

I shrugged. "Growing up in a farmer's village gives you a good eye for horses. Especially when the farm beside you is a horse breeder's ranch."

Zhestkiy smiled.
"Oh, by the way, Lynke may be coming with us..."

I grimaced.
"You really have a soft spot for women, don't you?"

Zhestkiy laughed and shrugged, playfully. "yeah, I guess I do."

I grimaced.
"Don't blame me if she turns on you for coin. Traveling with me, you will probably be in a low place for popularity and a high place for the price on your head. Traveling with the best bounty hunter around, I wouldn't be surprised to go to sleep and not wake up. Both of us."

Zhestkiy furrowed his brows.
"I may have a soft spot for women, but I'm not stupid and I know how to take care of myself," he said, ending abruptly the conversation. After a while, he wondered, "Is Lynke lost or something?"
OOC: Looks like she is...

"I doubt it," I told him dryly as he voiced his concern over Lynke. "She's managed to find me in a desert, over seas, and once in a village of three-arm Mistlinjes, who are very careful to keep their tracks covered and their homes hidden by illusion. I don't think she'd lose her way in a tavern."
I guided my horse out of the stables and mounted, circling around for a while at a walk and working my way up to a gallop before slowing her down. I had been right about her stride. She was easy to handle, not needing more than a bit of pressure with my legs.

Lynke raced after Zhestkiy into the stables. She was a little slow, and saw Drintarr leave. "Oh, I have my own horse out front." She walked to the front, and got her small, swift, black horse. She mounted him without a saddle or bridle; he seemed to know where she wanted to go. She trotted back over to Zhetskiy. "Ready?" She added in a low voice "Is Drintarr really that resentful of my coming?"

"I guess, a bit... But nevermind him, he'll reconsider."
Zhestkiy mounted his horse, and followed Drintarr with Lynke.
OOC: Ok, now's teh time we should leave this board... Do you guys have any idea what the name of the RP will be so a new thread can be created?
