[ so that happened... ]

[ said just as softly, ]

I did ask her once before, but if she's gone on a ride before, then her reaction makes much more sense now. Yeah, she didn't seem into it, but maybe we can turn that around somehow.

You think?

I do! It's just going to take a while, probably, but I'm sure she'll come around. And, if not, then maybe we can get detachable sidecars and make it a little less frightening for her.

Or she could wear the jacket and ride a horse or something.

She did mention she liked horses. That works, assuming the horse wouldn't be scared of all the noise the bike makes. I did want to learn to ride too, so maybe next time we go riding I can bring a horse instead. Test it out, since I'd feel kind of bad if we asked her to join us with a horse and then it lost its shit.

Oh yeah, good point.

I dunno how horses even work.

I don't really know how they work either, but it couldn't hurt to find out. Want to ride out to the stables and I'll see if I can't drive one of those bad boys?

I mean, I dunno if I'm really the cowboy type? But I bet I can give em carrots or whatever right up there with the pros.

How about you give it carrots, so I can climb onto it?

[ this isn't going to end well. ]

Like a distraction? Sure, let's give it a shot.

Yeah! what's the worst that can happen? It'll be fine, I'm sure. Want to drive us there?

Right now?

Sure, why not?

Okay. Yeah, sure.

Let's do it.

If we get this over with, then-

[ oh. wow. she's an idiot. ]

[ she just kind of sits there for a second staring off into space and then she burst out laughing. ]

Ok, maybe not tonight. Tomorrow! Or I guess whenever, really, since I think if we know how these horses work we'll have a better argument for when we pitch our idea to everybody.
