"That, I will grant you," Marius admits as Violet approaches, looking every bit as well-versed in nature and horses from the stains prominent throughout her clothes. "You do know how to bide your time with the fairer sex."

"Oui," Violet answers with a playful sparkle to her eyes. "And you must be monsieur Courfeyrac? Marius has told me something about you." Her tone of voice is such that leaves plenty of room for interpretation, for however Courfeyrac sees fit. Marius has to stifle a chuckle at the scene. "I assure you, the pleasure is all mine."

"Now," she says, gesturing for them to follow her. "If you two will follow me, I will lead you to your horses. Courfeyrac, you shall be riding Paladin today. Marius, you'll be with Pikachu."
