"Nah, then, thee dear creature," she soothes him, running her hands lightly over his neck and back to reaccustom him to her presence. "Thee remember me, aye? Thee kennit it that it's Susan?"
Gently, she checks the scars on his barrel, watching him for any sign. Tequila shudders all over, and stamps a rear hoof, but stands for it.
"Thee very dear," she murmurs, placing saddle pad and then slowly and carefully setting the saddle on his back and beginning to fasten the girth with care.
