Stables

@♘ Lee Jooyeon "Its nice to meet you as well" the male responds as the other gets comfortable next to him. About to go back into his book, "Its quiet out here, so I come here to read at times" he says hearing the shuffling of a bag and he glances over. At the mention of food, "Its alright, I ate not to long ago. Enjoy it" he says with a small smile, not being able to remember the last time someone offered to share a meal with him. "So what brought you out here Jooyeon?" he asks him reading the page as a he waits for an answer.

@♙ Kim Taehyung “I-it’s nice to meet you Taehyung..” Jooyeon said softly before taking a seat near the other man. “What are you doing out here?” He tilted his head as he looked around before his eyes dared to meet the others. His eyes were round as he looked to Taehyung, deciding to look in his brown bagged lunch. “I-Um, I packed a lunch for myself, I didn’t expect to find someone over here, but if you’re hungry, I brought a pb&j sandwich and some apple slices! I-if you’re hungry of course.”

@♘ Lee Jooyeon Taehyung enjoyed the quietude of the stables. The only noises coming from the stables as the horses moved about or the different animals wondered in. The male doesn't know how much time actually passes but he's half way through the book when he hears a timid voice. Looking up his sharp eyes fall onto another male. Looking him over briefly his gaze softens, "I'm Taehyung." He answers him. "Care to sit?"

@♙ Kim Taehyung Jooyeon had made a small lunch for himself, something as simple as a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with some apple slices, packed neatly into a little brown bag. He walked around the grounds, trying to find a quiet place or at least a shady place. Jooyeon quietly walked around the stable before spotting a man petting a horse before sitting next to her stall. He watched for a moment before he clears his voice as to try and not startle the man. "H-Hello, my name is Jooyeon," his words were soft as he poked around the corner.

Taehyung woke up mid morning, making himself breakfast in the kitchen, he grabs a cup of coffee and book where he makes his way to the stables. He breathes the smell in, most people would find it too much but for Taehyung the scent was comfort from when he was young. He smiles softly, walking to the back of the stables where he finds an older mare, an appaloosa. A soft giggle comes from Taehyung as the woman lips at his cheek in greeting. Gently petting her, he takes out an apple he had with him which the horse happily accepts. Making himself comfortable on the mostly cleaned ground, next to the mare's stable, he opens his book and quietly reads to himself while enjoying his coffee.

@♕ Lee Felix *when you snatch the handkerchief from me, I smile slightly to myself*
I do what is asked of me, your highness. Besides... you are right. This is my home now, after all. I should take care to learn about those around me.
*I stay silent for a minute before slowly sitting next to you, my knees up as I rest my elbows on them, my voice soft*
You have very beautiful eyes, Prince Felix. Quite....captivating.

@♘ Park Seonghwa /eyes startle wide upon hearing my name before snorting and looking off to the side as i snatch up the handkerchief/ at least someone has been doing their homework /mumbles as i crumble up the tissue in my palm, clutching onto it tight as i begin to chew on my upper lip/

@♕ Lee Felix *I open my mouth to speak, but then shut it again, pursing my lips as I study you for a moment, I was about to leave, but my sharp eyesight caught the tear tracks on your face, and something tugged on my heart, and instead, I sighed through my nose, opening the stall and coming in, walking up and crouching in front of you, my eyes determined*
I'm not going to 'piss off' and leave someone crying. It's not in my nature, your highness.
*I say, plucking a handkerchief from my pocket and holding it out to you between my fingers*
Or is it /Prince Felix/?

@♘ Park Seonghwa /the sound of your voice addressing me only forces my state of frustration to grow until a prominent frown is carved into my lips as my head lifts with a beady gaze to look at you/ of course. Because everyone who is "alright" hides in a ing horse stall /throws up quotations with my fingers where needed, snapping my answer in return before going back to hugging myself/ like I said... Piss off.

@♕ Lee Felix *I was smiling tiredly at the beautiful mare, running my fingers over the length of her nose, cooing sweetly at her, horses had always been a passion of mine- you'd think it would be different since I was a tiger, and this sort of animal would most likely be my prey in another life, but there was just something so majestic and beautiful about them that it drew me in; that was when I heard a sudden voice, making me gasp and jolt back, I stared at the horse with huge, bewildered eyes, wondering for just a split second if I'd gone crazy since a horse seemed to be talking to me, but then I heard a slight ruffling, and it was then that I noticed a young man sitting curled up across the stall, almost hidden in the straw, and I sighed heavily in relief, clutching my chest*
Jesus. You gave me a fright. I thought the horse was talking.
*I say, chuckling at my insane thoughts, smh, but then your words caught up with me, and I frowned, bowing my head*
Apologies. I didn't mean to intrude.
*I start to leave, but then I realized the tone of your voice had indicated previous crying due to its scratchiness, and I turn back to look at you, leaning my folded arms on the stall door, my voice soft*
Are you alright....?

@♘ Park Seonghwa /had slipped out early in the morning after a melt down, cheeks flushed red and dried tears staining my cheeks as I had stumbled my way into the stables to hide away from the rest of the royals and servants, knowing this was the last place they would look as I had managed to slip inside the stalls of my favorite horse, tucking myself into the corner as I hunched down beneath the wooden frame to hide away, drawing my knees against my body, arms wrapped tightly around them as I rested my head against my arms and closed my eyes, staying in that position for what felt like hours until my body ached and the sniffles ceased, the tamed beast having long given up trying to nudge me in favor of another being standing on the opposite side of the wall, eyes rounding as I in a deep breath at your words causing me to panic before finally speaking up in a weak voice/ piss off...

@♕ Lee Felix *my first night at the mansion had gone about as well as expected- a fitful night of tossing and turning, unpleasant dreams waking me up several times during the night until I eventually couldn't sleep anymore and woke myself up at 7 in the morning, finding a cup of coffee to try to help wake myself fully, and once it was poured into my favorite pink thermos, I decided to leave my room; Getting dressed in a simple pair of black pants and a billowy white dress shirt, I slipped on my shoes and went for a walk, wandering the grounds, sipping on my coffee, humming to myself as I see the large stables, and I head inside, coming up to one of the stalls and leaning on the wooden frame around it, smiling as I see a large white mare, she snorts at me, and I gently pet her nose*
Well, hello, gorgeous. You can't sleep either, huh...?
