Tesla's eyes glanced from each equine to the next in the small auction house. She stopped in her tracks as the fluttering of a note on a fence caught her attention. Her eyes studied the horse completely, the knowledge from her earlier horse-loving days coming back. She always thought that it'd be good for Amber to have something to love like Tesla had when she was younger. Never too early to start.. right? Besides, with all the problems from Amber's dad, maybe it'd be good for Tesla too.
She walked to the fence, clucking her tounge gently as she stopped to get the mare's attention. "Hey, girl.."

Joy waddled over to Tesla, for she was a bit overweight. She rested her chin on the fence.

A smile quickly crossed Tesla's lips as she watched the pony. She offered her hand for smelling, waiting to see if she'd accept.

Joy put her nose on the womans hand, inhaling deeply a few times. She then moved her lips around, looking for a treat.

Tesla's smile stayed where it was, her fingers stroking through the mare's mane gently. "You're a sweet girl aren't you.." she said, her hand stroking her nose.

Joy nodded her head, as if she understood perfectly what Tesla had just said. She started to mischeviously nibble the womans hand.

She laughed lightly, pulling her fingers away. "Well you still got some spunk in you huh?" she said, glancing up and around for an owner.

Joy butted her head into Teslas stomache. A man walked around the bend with a few trunks in tow. She's $1,500

Tesla glanced down at the mare as she felt her butt into her stomache, but then at the man. "What can you tell me about her?" she asked directly after his price.

"So you'd say she'd be good for a younger beginning rider?" she asked, knowing it didn't really matter what the man said, but she went ahead with the question.

The man nodded. The previous owners daughter learned to ride on her. I'm know that because I'm their stable manager. So she would be perfect for the job. Joy butted her nose in Teslas stomache again, demanding attention.

Tesla grunted slightly as she felt Joy butting into her again. Without glancing at her, her hand reached up and scratched her behind the ear gently as she took a step back from her. She nodded at the man, her hand leaving Joy's head. She pulled out a check from somewhere, all she did was put the amount and sign, then offered it to the man..

The man took the check and smiled Thanks. Oh, and as you've probably noticed, that head butting is a terrible little habbit of hers. All her equiptment things are in those two trunks he said, motioning towards to big wooden trunks. Then, with a finaly smile, he left.

Muttering something under her breath, she sighed as she glanced at the trunks. She walked toward them, opening the nearest one to take a glance at what was inside. Noticing a halter and lead, she grabbed that first, then looked at everything else that was in there..
Afterwards, she stood, glancing back toward the horse. She walked to the pasture and opened the gate, walking inside. She stood still, clucking and holding out a hand to see if the mare would come.

Joy waddled over to Tesla and the gate. After another quick mischevious butt in the stomache, she nuzzled her arm.

"Oh, girl.." she muttered, kneeling down a little bit to get more to her level. She'd learned before that miniatures and shetlands sometimes liked it better if the people that were around them were more to their level. She reached up, scratching her behind the ear gently. She then slipped the halter on quietly, petting her again.

Joy eagerly stuck her nose into her halter. She leaned into the pets, loving every minute of it.

"That's a good girl," Tesla praised her, standing up slowly. She stroked the mare's neck. She led her out of the pasture, to her trailer, and opened the door slowly. Afterwards, she turned Joy around, getting a straight 'run' at the trailer. She stepped up inside, glancing back at Joy.
