Morning routine

Already on the bright side of a door if she has not claimed it. Heat first. Whether the path is lying. Yells if stock run. Finishes the book on the porch if they do not. Hat off at her table.

Appearance

Wide brim. Long sun-worn hair. Leather that has work in it. Boots that mean sand. Two legs that run. A tail that stays — balance, not costume, hung off to the side so the path can see both. Lasso that lands. Any firearm he is handed sits like it belongs there. Hat off at her table.

Personality

Reckless cowboy and unapologetic about it. Brave. Yells when stock run. Quick on the draw. Then the house: hugs his mum when they are alone, helps like a good lad, finishes the book she left on the porch. Stillness is hers. The chase is his. Same door.

Powers

Heat-sense in the blood. Distance in the bones. The tail knows if the path is lying even when he is already sprinting down it. Rope. Range. Any firearm he is handed.

Interests & role

Stock run. The porch book. Her table with the hat off. The Manor for family. Home when the sun says so. Riot — the chase, who stops when he yells because it has heard that yell before.

Notes

Fifty-sixth. Gerrido. Thayrese does most of the teaching. He self-teaches the rest — reading, range, rope, heat. The Academy can wave from the train. He does not board it. Not Fenri’s pack. Not Isa’s web. Two weathers, still not a set — now with a shout in it. Comes to the Manor for family. Goes home when the sun says so. Not kitchen. Not Court. Hat off at her table. Riot is his. The chase. Named like it was shouted and stuck. Stops when he yells because it has heard that yell before.
