[ it's not as badass as sena thinks it is, the horse is named after the band. ]

Ah, well... No, not really. I have a few I think of as my own just because I end up looking after them the most when I'm on duty, but they officially belong to either the stables or, well—people in Recollé. Butterscotch is really nice. [ and his personal most favorite horse, right up there with tourmaline. tsukasa smiles slightly, stepping over to shooting star make sure he's not being left out in the attention getting. ] My parents won't even let me have a normal pet, Sena-senpai. I don't think they'd agree to either of those.

[ the suzakura household is just strict like that, and he watches sena for a moment more before he turns his gaze to the colt and starts loosely braiding his mane. ]

I'm sure they'd think it'd just distract me... and they'd probably be right. Letting me work here's kind of a compromise, even if ever since I started over a year ago I've just wanted to spend more and more time here instead of at home. [ which is a troubling admittance, and that's clear in the crease of his forehead. ] It's not like I hate being at home or anything like that? Baba's good company, and I don't like her getting lonely, but... Mmm, I don't know.
