She nods, then shoos the goat away a bit and opens the gate to go in.

The goat trots in a circle and then lowers her head and paws at the ground; Dusk grins and takes a stable stance, her hands at her hips ready to grab the creature's horns.

He is pretty sure he's about to watch a Sith Lord gently fight a goat.

Permalink

Yeah, pretty much. The goat runs at her; they wrestle for a few seconds before separating; the goat peels off to get a bit of distance and run at her again. They repeat this three or four times, playfully.

"Want a go? She's plenty friendly."

Permalink

"...yeah, I've gotta do this at least once in my life."

He edges in through the gate.

Permalink

She's pretty focused on the Sith, but a bit of a nudge gets her to go for Kai-Zi instead. Whump.

Permalink

Whump!

He wrestles with her, laughing -- he tries a little too hard to be gentle at first, so she gets to bully him a bit before he gets the hang of it.

Permalink

She does her very best to knock him over!

Permalink

Not gonna happen! (He does wobble a little bit, though.)

Permalink

She tries for a little bit, then gives up with a whuffling sound and trots off, tail wagging, to try again. Gallopa gallopa gallopa whump!

Permalink

He puts a little more effort into it this time.

"She's serious about this!"

Permalink

"Mmhmm! She wants to be the boss!"

Permalink

"Nope! I'm the boss!"

He will fight this goat and win!

Permalink

She's a pretty persistent critter!

After a few more rounds she breaks off to go sit in the shade, panting.

Permalink

"Good game, goat."

He nods in approval.

Permalink

"Maaaaa!"

Permalink

(Dusk is leaning against the barn, watching with amusement.)

Permalink

He hops back over the fence.

"I like her. We're friends now."

Permalink

Hee. "Mmhmm."

"So that's about it for chores - I think I'm on the hook for lunch, though. Hungry?"

Permalink

"Oh, definitely. Especially after goat-fighting."

He heads vaguely in the direction of the house.

Permalink

She goes to the garden, instead, to pick up some potatoes - little fingerling ones - and beans and herbs.

Permalink

He's waiting in front of the house when she's done.

"What do you do winter? I guess you must can some stuff, but..."

Permalink

"We don't get that much of a winter, here, just a rainy season and a hot season."

Permalink

"Pretty good place to garden, huh? Plus it's got soil that works for human-origin plants...or did you have to fix it up a little?"

He sure thinks a lot about growing food for someone who lives on a ship eating ramen.

Permalink

"Fixed it up a little. It's not that hard if you know what you're doing."

Permalink

He nods.

"I used to read about that kinda stuff a lot. I had weird fantasies about stowing away on some cargo ship to a new planet."
