"I can never get the eyes quite right though. She a smart thing my lovely girl is and I can never quite capture that intelligence, or the annoyed look she can give me," she added with a soft chuckle before continuing, "No matter how many times I draw her, it's never quite right."<br/><br/>With a shrug she folded her sketch pad away and folded her legs up underneath herself, letting her body turn so she could face her new companion more fully. Smiling when she pulled out a Muggle photo, Salome suddenly found herself glad for all her grandmother's lessons in the Muggle world because they kept her from commenting on the fact that the image didn't move! Still horse and girl looked quite happy and well matched despite the difference in their sizes. "He's beautiful! That look on his face though, he's a handful isn't he?" she asked but it was a question that wasn't really a question because it was clear she thought she already knew the answer.<br/><br/>Reaching into her own bag once more she pulled out her own photo album and flipped through the pages until she found the one she wanted, in her picture she was riding Moonshadow and they were practicing their jumps, her seat on the horse easy and confident and the horses gait smooth. The two clearly rode together well with barely a squeeze of Salome's knees or twitch of the reins to guide her mare. "This is my girl," she said, pride and love clear in her voice and in her gaze as she touched the picture lightly. "She's been mine since she was born practically. Papa knows a horse breeder not far from where we live and I spent innumerable weekends when she was just a foal out visiting, letting both her and her mother get to know and trust me. We've learned everything together," she said her voice gentle and soft as she remembered those trips to visit Moonshadow for years before she was actually old enough, and both trained well enough, for her to be brought home. It had been a long process and her parents had actually thought she'd grow bored with it, but horse and girl had only grown well bonded to each other.<br/><br/>"It'll be interesting to see if they get along," she said with a smile when Fay said her boy would be at the school. "Papa is bringing Moonshadow to the school as we speak. Gentle as she is, he thought she'd settle into a new stable better if one of the family were the ones to put her in her stall. She can be quite stubborn when she get's it into her mind to be!" she added with a bright laugh before stashing her photos back into her bag and holding out her container of berries to share, "Would you like some? My grandmother grows them in her garden."
