closed starter for beatrix ( @stayingstills ) ──── ⋆☾・゚
Luca watched as she handled the reins, hands as sturdy as her spirit. He was impressed, really. Not everyone had the touch. Horses absorbed the energy of their rider, and to stride with confidence reflected who was behind the bit. “Looks like he’s feeling better with a fresh pair of shoes,” the Italian chuckled, his arms folded over one another on a broad chest. While the gilding hadn’t seemed too fond of the process, the result had their spunk back in full force. That’s what he did it for: the animals. Sure, it didn’t hurt when the rider was as pretty as Beatrix. “You’re welcome, by the way.” A smirk already in place. That’d rile her up.
