OOC hadley with blue ribbons would be amusing. yes!
Hadley watched with envy as again he witnessed the special bond between a canine and a horse. He had no idea how one was formed, and knew that he couldn't have one since he didn't even have a horse of his own. Hadley was a clumsy rider, albeit one that knew the basics of sitting on one and getting it to move. Steering was proving a little more tricky, as was staying on the horse once it started moving. The horse gently butted the male, rewarded with a growl of pleasure. Yes, that was something that he wanted, a connection with someone else, anyone else, that he could trust and be trusted by in return. He just didn't know if he was capable of it.
The offer of a meal had the hybrid nodding eagerly. He felt like he was starving. While Hadley had never been to that point, always kept healthy enough that he could work, his body did crave food. He was getting better at eating regularly, but he still needed prompts in order to feel free doing so. Otherwise he ended up harboring guilt, feeling like he'd stolen from others, that he needed to fix it. That didn't contribute to his diet well at all.
