[Hello network. It's been a while.

Let's just say that Lithuania wasn't in the mood to make himself available. At all. If you have seen him around since the mirrors crossed over to this side, he would have been with Poland and let the other nation do almost all the talking. He still doesn't really feel like it, which is the reason why this is text and not audio or video.]

I'm sorry for not having spoken to anyone for this long. I hope that everyone is all right. ...Ivanova, Elaine, Ryohei, Rosemarie, Helena, may I speak to you?

If anyone in this place would like lessons in the arts of cooking, horseback riding and swordfighting, please reply here and we can figure something out.

[Poland walks along at the horse's side.]

Okay, so like, you're gonna wanna stay balanced--back straight, shoulders back, but not too stiff or tense or anything. Don't put your feet too far into the stirrups, just to about... there, and keep your balance more through your hips and thighs. You're doing good so far!

Thanks, Feliks. This is easier than I thought it would be.

[After a few minutes of riding around.]

So how does steering the horse work?

I would rather not let you ride alone on your first day; usually it takes a while until the body really gets used to the movements. Only then we will move on to the next step, so you will be able to fully concentrate on that.

What we can do today, maybe in a few rounds, if you feel safe enough- I can let the horse trot and maybe even gallop, depending on how you do with the trot.

[Poland nods in agreement.]

It's like, super important to get really comfortable with what you're doing! Horses can kinda tell if you're not sure, so like, it's good not to rush.

Oh, okay. Whatever you two think is best...

With how much time we have on our hands in this place, it should be no problem to take our time with it. That is safer for both you and the horse.
