Welcome to Gaia! ::

"At least you know the base importance boy. And that is what makes racing legends." Legends of course only lasted so long in the light of glory but that was a lesson that every racer had to learn on their own. Finishing off his plate he tended to his milk before wiping his mouth with his napkin and giving a satisfied noise. "He's already wanting to be up and about and makes his complaints about my keeping him down loudly known. I had to rein him to his stable poles to make him stay down while I was gone." But nodding lightly at her instruction. "You can always stop by and take a look at him if you want later in the week. Bring Zykariel even so he can see where I live in Vesendar."

Teenagers, how he missed being one sometimes. But he turned his smile to Zahara as she cleaned up some, coming back to rest her hand on his shoulder and he reached up to rest his hand on top of hers. "Delicious lunch Zara, thank you. I haven't eaten that well in a while." Chuckling lightly to that before giving a nod then. "He'll be better in no time I'm sure, he's always been a fast healer anyway." Sighing, "You know me and imposing."

He rolled his eyes lightly. "For some reason I just seem to make women reject me." Shrugging nonchalantly at that notion though, it didn't bother him too much. Getting himself up before smiling at her and taking the container, pressing a kiss to her own cheek as well. "Aw, taking care of me and everything. I'm sure Jin will be excited to see you." Laughing though at her son's enthusiasm to be the one to show him out and he gave a wave to Zahara, "I'll see you then. Nice to meet you Kelligrin." Thusly following Zykariel out and around to the stables. "Alright then, why don't you pull her out of her stall and let her show up a little bit."

Still not happy with all the developments in the kitchen that he was fully aware of, but he merely kept himself occupied by his runes, that is of course until ZAhara wandered back into his room. A blink and a look to the foot set down before a look up to here where she stood. "I am not grumpy."

He mad a noise of annoyance to her analyzing and merely picked up his fork, poking at his food some that was on the plate. "Depends on your definition of harm I suppose." Frankly he knew he could snap that boy in half if he wanted to, probably with his bare hands and strength, no runes needed. Though he did relax some under her massaging. "Where do you know him from?"

He leaned on the corrall fencing, watching as the young elf enthusiastically went about bringing out his beloved horse and how said horse was just as eager to please. One look at the creature and he knew the mare was indeed in fabulous racing condition. Nadai gave a whistle of appreciation. "Beautiful mare, and in top notch look of racing. Muscle built up properly, lean but not too much, gorgeous posture." Looking to the boy. "You want to give her a run around the pin?"

He was bird eating if anything, and clearing he was doing more internal thinking than anything else at the moment, though the subject matter exactly was his alone to know. Discount? Since when did this woman give discounts? Especially extra large ones. "Why in the world would you give him a discount?" His mind of course conjoured up half a dozen other reasons as to why that he didn't like at all.

He watched as Zykariel made a show of showing off his horse and what she could do, analyzing how the boy rode but he kept his mouth shut until he was done and trotted back over toward the section of the fencing he was perched on. "She holds a good gait, but you need to shift your weight to more center. You're putting too much toward her head and it taxes her front legs more than needed." Tip of the day. "I'll show you once Jin is back up."

Another noise of displeasure to that....he had always been tight on money but he also assumed that back then they weren't sharing money anyway...but Zahara could be a push over from time to time...or there were other circumstances involved be they intimate or emotional. "You like your horses going to good homes. Makes sense." And giving her an excuse to boot, he was terrible really. "And how does he knew where we live?" Because that really irked him.

"No worries, it'll be our secret. But honestly do feel free to come down with your mother when she visits to check on Jin." Giving the boy a clap on the shoulder before turning on his heel with a gesture of a wave of his hand. "See you around, racer. I look forward to what you can do." Thusly starting off, it was indeed going to be a bit of a walk back to Vesendar.

Well that just made him frown because he didn't like any of those being the answer. Now he would have to go out and do some runics and such to make this place harder to find to those that didn't know it was here. He was not going to have everyone and their brother walking into his space as they pleased. Some paranoid habits just didn't go away. "Well, I'll just have to find out then and correct the problem." Looking back to her slightly, "Used to be my job to do such things." And then kill them...but he was going to try to not go there. "And he knows Zykariel too?"
