A Horse named Peace

Danger grinned at her, purposefully loosing his feet from the stirrups and striking a pose in one fluid motion, purposefully balancing backwards, though the way he did it, you wouldn't have known. Then he fell off of Sally, catching himself in a roll. Falling was something he was good at. He flopped back over onto his back, and burst out laughing when Sally bent to nudge his face, nibbling on his nose. He petted her nose, and she snorted at him. Then he turned his puppy dog brown eyes to Serenity with a grin. "See? The ladies just love me." he said in a teasing way, his accent rolling some of his words together, making them sound rather fluid.

Danger stood in a smoothe motion, rubbing Sally's head to keep her calm. Then he mounted the horse again. "Shall we go before Peace decides to throw you?" he asked, cocking his head to the side, once again looking like a confused puppy. Then, without moving his head, he clicked his tongue, and Sally began moving again. He glanced over his shoulder at Serenity, cocky grin in place once more.

Danger looked at her seriously, the fun gone out of his eyes for just a moment, before he grinned again, the light going back into his eyes. "Don't worry about it. I just forget to eat sometimes. Curse of a pirate, I suppose." he shrugged, chosing to ignore her question of whether or not it was what she had done.

Then he faked a frown, though the light remained in his eyes, "Yes, you are spoiling the fun. Now, we shall sneak out of the school and go to a fancy schmancy place and you can buy whatever you want, and force me to eat it." he grinned again, shaking his hair back into his eyes and looking at her through the fringe, "And you can eat too, of course." He ran a hand through his hair, pulling the fringe out of his eyes for just a moment before it fell back into place.

Danger grinned and shook his head, "I'd probably eat it, too. But I was thinking more like going all out at a fancy restaurant." he chuckled, not at all uncomfortable with making the suggestion, though he didn't mention that because he was a pirate he was rich. If asked, he'd say it was his inheritance. Without warning, he yelled, "Race you to the stables!" and then clicked his tongue, giving Sally her head once more. She took off in a happy gallop, and Danger glanced over his shoulder for just a second to be sure that she was following.

Indeed he did have his horse, and was giving her a quick grooming while whistling what was obviously a seafarers song. He glanced up at her, and in a rare moment for him, smiled a complete, sincere smile. He placed the brush where it was supposed to go, and glanced at her again. "Ready to go?" he asked easily, coming out of the stall and latching the door behind him. Sally nickered, and he turned to blow a kiss at the horse.
