I'M ON A HORSE

Who: Noa, Kuma the Horse, and You! (And Penguins!)
Where: VARIOUS
When: Throughout August
What: Noa's got a horse, and has to make sure that horse is Cared For
Warnings: Naaah

[RESEARCH]

[There are a number of downsides along with the upsides of Noa receiving his horse again, and among them is the fact that Noa's horse isn't exactly under the care of private staff any more. If anything she's under the care of a few penguins, and himself, and the former of the two can only do so much. Noa never had to worry about this at home- but here? Now?

This is a very real worry, so he can be spotted at a number of book stores and even the library itself, immediately going to either the store-keep or the librarian with a flat request-
]

Are there any books on horse care?

[Care to ask what this is about?]

[SUPPLY]

[He has the knowledge, but knowledge only goes so far- specifically it goes as far as a store on the island that he intends to hit with everything he's got. After sorting out what he needs to supplement the fact that 'Kuma' has more or less just been chilling around on the campus grounds and eating the lawn, Noa now needs to actually buy a stock of care items.

As is typical, he has a few penguins with him. Also as typical, no one knows what the penguins are saying.
]

Alright. Adelai has granted us a fairly strict budget, [Noa insists, handing each one a list.] We are therefore to find the perfect balance of quality, and cost. There will be no skimping on resources and hygene, understand?

AAAaaAAAAu!

[They probably understand.]

[OUTCOME]

[It's a long trip of research and shopping and set-up, but ultimately all of the preparation is Worth it. Kuma seems to be a Very Happy horse- she's getting a brushing (somehow) from strange small birds, and also her small boy is now giving her pieces of carrot. Things are very nice here. Strange, but nice.

It helps that Noa has been very carefully keeping her away from anything too chaotic, but that can only last so long right?

Kuma's ears perk, as does the rest of her attention, as someone comes around the corner in fact.
]

Snmmfnff.

Hmm? What is it? [This of course mean's Noa's attention is also being taken.]

Really? I must have missed that note somehow.

[Her face lights up at that.]

Can I?

[She nods.]

Yes, of course. Poor thing, I can't really blame her.

[She'd felt pretty similar when she first arrived, after all.]

Right. The important thing right now is making her as comfortable as possible so she can get used to being here.

Has she had a chance to wander around yet? Or is it still too early for that?

[She nods in understanding.]

That makes sense. Hopefully she'll be able to walk around soon, though. Exercise is important too.

[She nods; as must as she wanted to meet this horse, Fluttershy also doesn't want to make her uncomfortable.]

Sure. Hopefully she'll feel more at ease soon.

That sounds good. If you need any help, though, just let me know.
