The marvelous thing about riding a horse is you use muscles you don't use for anything else. Muscles you don't even know you've got. The bowlegged stiffness you feel coming out of the saddle is nothing compared to when you wake up the next morning, or when you rest those muscles long enough they feel the twinge of being spread again.
Tommy wouldn't understand.
Kate clucks her tongue, and the horses start ambling towards her. Duncan almost instantly goes for her pockets.
"You'll be all right. It's not long back t'the stables."
Once led to Tommy, feeling dejected by the lack of treats on Kate's person, Duncan decides to let bygones be bygones. Which is to say, he noses at Tommy's pockets hoping to get lucky.
