He and Slippy have an understanding.” George admitted as he patted the horses nose. Since George was basically the only one who could actually handle the stallion, it was hard to dispute his logic. “you’ll be nice for Steph, won’t you Slippy?”<br/><br/>“honestly, I’m more worried about the horse if it tries to take a bite out of Bruce.” Bucky admitted with a chuckle as he finished cinching a saddle and grinned at Steph. “come on.

Your not a chicken are you?” he needled. “I bet you fall off the saddle first thing too.” he smirked at her and shook a pair of reins at her. “gonna prove me wrong, Rogers?”
