[Video / Freyr House Action]

[Leonardo da Vinci had always had a great fondness for horses. He loved to sketch them, hear stories of them, even keep a few himself when he was able... but this level of obsession was new. Today he found he could not tear himself away from the eight-legged horses in Gefion Park especially one in particular, a solid black mare. ]

This is the most pazzo thing I have ever...

[(Crazy)]

Even worse than the water walking shoes.

[The inventor looked to the horse, then to the Freyr house... specifically to the window of the room he stayed in...


...
...
...



And then over to the giant horse lifting crane standing at the ready by the side of the building.]


Why can't I just leave the animal where it is!

[ My security blanket is a horse?!]

Comments

[alternia_strength]

Why would you wish to? It is a splendid example of the equine species, isn't it?

But... is that not a touch extreme?

[true_renaissance_man]

Si, it is a lovely horse but...

[It IS extreme! He knows it is and yet... ]

I do not feel like I can just leave her here. Some thing is missing when I am too far away from her.

[Leonardo sighed and leaned back against the horse who really seemed none the wiser about this struggle. ]

Maybe I have finally gone mad.

[alternia_strength]

Madness is a highly underrelated experience. Within what many consider madness is found inspiration. Perhaps you should stay a day in the stables with her? That might be a solution, yes?

[true_renaissance_man]

[Like the inspiration of a giant horse lifting crane device?]

That would be the simpler option...

And it might prevent the people of the Freyr house from having a very noisy house guest.
I wonder if the owner would mind.

[alternia_strength]

A stable-owner minding an officianado enjoying the company of a bit of straw? I cannot imagine that it would offend anyone, and stairs are not good for a horses's hooves I would expect.

... nor would that infernal slide.

[true_renaissance_man]

Ah but it might be fun to see her try the slide! She might end up enjoying it.

[He laughs. A horse on a slide is a ridiculous idea of course!]

Have you ever found the need to do something as strange as this?

[Video]

[comeonthensexy]

The gods are playing a game.

[Video]

[true_renaissance_man]

This is a strange kind of game to play. Why would they even bother?

[Video]

[comeonthensexy]

Boredom, I imagine. Boredom is a very good motivator.

[Loras smiles; a rare one.]

I do hope you know how to care for it.

[historyrabbit]

[Welp.] Why not...try the more conventional way?

[pushesgently]

Is that practical?

[Altaïr looks and sounds slightly baffled.]

[Video]

[true_renaissance_man]

There are so many things they could do instead of...

[Well, the horse was given a strange look.]

I suppose even gods enjoy a practical joke.

[true_renaissance_man]

Take care of the horse? Si, non c'è di che!

[(Yes, no problem!)]

I have had a lot of experience dealing with horses. We use them at home as you people use those motorized vehicles here.

[true_renaissance_man]

You mean the stairs?

[Leonardo shrugs. ]

I thought she might not make it past the banister.

[true_renaissance_man]

[Welcome to his world. His inventions are not always the most practical things but...]

Maybe not, but it will work!

[Trying something new, ok even something crazy, was still exciting.]

[historyrabbit]

Depends on how the banister is placed. Horses can climb stairs after all. [They actually used spiral ones in firehouses to keep them from going upstairs.]

[true_renaissance_man]

I admit I have never attempted to have a horse climb the stairs...

[There's an experiment for later!]

But, with her extra legs I felt this would be easiest.

[Making a crane is absolutely the easiest option...
^^"" He's odd sometimes.]

[Video]

[callmecaesar]

What in the world is that creature?

[Video]

[true_renaissance_man]

Her?

[The animal is given a friendly pat.]

She is a horse. The extra legs surprised me at first two but apparently that is very common here.

[dyingisnotdead]

...that is not a language I am familiar with.

[He chuckles.]

You people.

I am a knight, and a horse is like an extension of my body, when I am upon it.

I am not from worlds with those strange motor things.

Re: [Video]

[callmecaesar]

A horse created by these gods, no doubt?

permavideo;

[true_renaissance_man]

[Oh... uh... embarrassing... ]

I'm sorry. So many people here are from the 'future' I just assumed you would be as well.

[Foot meet mouth.]

Then you must be very familiar with horses, Messer. You might like to go to the park and see the kind of horse they have there.

[Video]

[true_renaissance_man]

I assume so. There are not animals this unique where you come from? I was more used to the kind of horse with only four legs before my time here.

[alternia_strength]

... be extremely careful and have a healer on hand in case something goes wrong. A hoofbeast does not deal with breaks easily.

Strange? No, there is nothing strange going on in my life. [Dab of the grungy towel he's carrying around like Linus.]
