Henry would eye the girl and smile a bit as he followed her to the barn as he replied" I doubt he would even notice if I broke a bone," however the second year would watch as his older brother look over at him and he would continue to say" or blame you, pretty sure he'll just blame me since he's father of the year," adding that last part with sarcasm.
"or I could use magic to mend any broken bones but would prefer not to," Arthur spoke from beside Henry as the two followed Logan into the barn.
Henry would walk straight to the miniature horse named Olly stall and carefully scratch him between the ears as he listened to Logan point out each horse to Arthur.
Arthur would look at each before approaching Olly's stall as well and first letting the horse sniff his hand before gently scratching his ears as he spoke" so does each horse compete in competitions or just specific ones?"
Henry rolled his eyes at his brother as he remembered telling him that Logan completed in competitions before nodding at the girl and heading to the back room for the helmet.
Arthur however would turn to Logan as he spoke" how can I help then Logan with the horses," at the end Henry would emerge from the room and lightly toss his brother the riding helmet.
Arthur would catch it and adjust it to his size before holding it under his arm, as both brothers awaited how they can help Logan with the horses.

Logan smiled as she watched Henry walk off before turning to respond to Arthur. "Most of them have specific competitions they compete in. Occasionally I compete in dressage with Venus and Mars, but I don't show them that often. They are normally just used for leisure riding or hooked up to the carriage. Polaris and Jupiter are my Eventing horses, although I use them for individual dressage, show jumping, and hunter trial as well. Macey and Clementine are only used for Hunter Pace competitions when my brothers decide to actually take them out. Mercury was my hunter trial horse, but he can no longer compete due to a leg injury and Olly is too old to do anything, but I competed with him when I was younger." The girl took a deep breath after her rant as she looked at Arthur with a sheepish grin on her face. She tended to rant when it came to the horses, something that happened often. She glanced at Henry to see he had already brought back the helmet for his brother.
She glanced over at Mars and Venus who had not really moved, although both had taken about a step out of their stalls. "You can help me tack them up," she told Arthur with a grin as she glanced over at Henry before making her way to the tack room. It would have been easier to have just gotten the helmet for Arthur when they all went in to get the tack, but it was too late for that now. "Henry can you grab the grooming bag we used earlier?" Logan asked her best friend as she looked at him with a grin as she made her way over to the wall of tack. Logan reached over to the hanger labeled Mars and pulled the saddle, saddle pad, and bridle off the hooks. "Arthur, could you grab the stuff for Venus?" She nodded to the saddle and other tack on her left. Once she had Mars and Venus tacked she would come back for the stuff for Mercury.

Arthur listened and seemed interested in Logan's speech about her horses, the young adult would nod his head at certain points with a type of smile that was both warm and kind. Once the girl would finish, he would speak" thanks for telling me Logan, that was both interesting and informative perhaps later I could ask you some follow up questions or you can go into more detail about each specific horse?" The nineteen year old recognizes the awkward or sheepish grin on the girls face probably from his younger brother which explained the sudden almost comforting and kind nature he was producing with a kind and rather friendly smile.
Once Henry would return and lightly toss the riding helmet to his Arthur who would adjust it to his size before holding it underneath his arm. Henry however would move to stand next to Logan giving the girl a light but playful nudge on her shoulder with his own small smile before nodding and giving a two finger saute with a goofy smile when his best friend said they could tack them up.
Arthur just stood behind them and would ruffle his younger brother's hair as he passed him to follow Logan into the back room, Henry would brush it back before running ahead next to his best friend as he spoke" coming in here again helps me memorize where everything is," eyeing the girl with a smile that meant he easy joking in his comment.
Henry would take the grooming bag and carry it over his shoulder as he spoke" so you have to care or groom them before and after you ride them?" a pause before he continued" you have my permission to hit me robin if I ever say horseback riding isn't consider a sport," again the twelve year old would smile while Arthur would pass his helmet to Henry as he spoke" hold that for me merlin."
Henry would carry the helmet and grooming bag back out to the stalls with Arthur carrying the saddle, saddle pad, and bridle for Venus. The young adult would leave the items by Venus's stall before heading back to Logan and taking the last of the items from her as he spoke" here let me."

Logan grinned at the thought of hitting Henry for him not considering horseback riding a sport. "Yes Charm, we have to groom them before and after we ride them." She said with a laugh as he walked out of the room. Before Logan was even able to comprehend what was happening, Arthur had already set one set of tack at the stalls and come back and taken the other set of tack from her.
"Thank you Arthur," the Hufflepuff grinned as she walked over and grabbed the tack for Mercury and walked out of the tack room. Mars and Venus still stood at their stalls although Mars now stood closer to Venus than he had before. The girl only shook her head with a grin as she set Mercury's tack outside of his stall, but did not let him out quite yet.
"Charm, if you remember how to groom them you can. It is the exact same process as early if you would like to show Arthur, I will do their feet though." She knew the horses could get finicky with who touched their feet sometimes. Logan quickly grabbed one of the hoof picks out of the bag and started on their feet. It wouldn't take them long to get ready now that their were multiple of them doing it, the longest thing would be tacking up the horses.

Henry smiled toward Logan at her words in nodded as he brushed back a few strands of hair and now had a feeling that he may regret allowing the girl to hit him even if he probably won't say horseback riding isn't a sport or anything since he respects what his best friend did but still almost regrets giving her permission to.
Arthur just nodded as he sat the tack for Mercury at their stall before standing there combing a hand through hair. Henry just nodded toward Logan and gave a playful salute as he spoke" got it," before taking two curry brushes from the bag and handing one to Arthur as he spoke" circular motions along their hair to loosen any dirt or anything," Arthur nodded toward his little brother as he took the brush and spoke" got it."
Arthur would start with Venus while Henry started with Mars before the two brother's would finish and then they both would both brush Mercury. As they kept their technique simple and careful as they brushed the three horses.
Arthur brushed Mars carefully and gently as he was also petting the horse and seemed to enjoy it. Before moving onto mercury, he would gently pet Mars nuzzle before moving onto Mercury.
While Henry carefully was brushing Venus and would take his time before he would start on Mercury which is when he would ask" do you need any help, Robin?" However the boy would eye something outside before speaking" I'll be right back, I think I see something outside."
As Henry stepped out of the barn, Arthur would smile toward Logan as the young adult spoke"so do you want to know what Henry says about you Logan? I can tell you now if you will tell me what he says about me when I'm not around?"

Logan watched Henry tell Arthur how to groom the horses and grinned, liking the bond the two had. She quickly got to work on the horses feet, she glanced up and smiled at the sight of them both grooming Mercury as she quickly finished up Venus' feet. "Oh, I am okay Henry," she said with a smile as she placed her hoof pick back into the bag. At the sight of the boy running out of the barn, she raised her eyebrows, what was that boy doing.
"Oh yes, please do tell." Logan grinned up at the boy as she walked over to Mars and began to tack him up. Tossing the saddle pad onto his back followed by the light weight saddle. She quickly adjusted it as she listened to Arthur, glancing out to look for Henry every once in a while. Shaking herself out of her thoughts, she quickly cinched the saddle to the correct spot before lengthening the stirrups, knowing both boys would need them to be longer.
After making sure the stirrups were the correct length, she tossed them over the back of the saddle and moved on to tack up Mars. She would wait to put their bridles on last, just in case the reins would get tangled in something. She continued to listened to Arthur, listening to him happily.

Henry needed a moment to breath when he step outside of the barn into the crisp winter air. On occasions the boy would have mini panic attacks because of his anxiety for exactly no reasons at times and that was one of the times.
The second year would lean against the bark door, taking slow but deep breaths as he tried to calm himself from his mini panic attack while inside the barn Arthur finished up grooming the trio of horses before placing the brushes back inside the bag and turning toward Logan with a kind or warm type of smile as he spoke" he talks about you a lot, more than anyone really," the older boy was thinking about what Henry spoke about the girl while Henry leaned against the door outside to calm himself, "he often talks about how smart and helpful you are. How you are actually mischievous but no one really sees, how you spend hours of the day with him in the library, how he feels less empty or less of a outsider when he's with you and how he's thankful to have met you."
Henry was still leaning aginest the bark door when his older brother would look toward the door before speaking to Logan, " thank you, Logan. For everything, I really don't think he has been this outgoing or social before meeting you, so thank you Logan," the older boy would wait another minute but Henry remained outside continuing focusing on his breathing to calm himself as Arthur spoke to Logan, " alright what does he say about me when I'm not around?"

Logan continued to listen to Arthur as she tacked up the horses, giggling every once in a while as he mentioned what Henry thought of her. "If more people knew about how much trouble I could cause, there would be more of them watching out for me," she told him with a grin as she moved onto putting the saddle and saddle pad onto Mercury. She gently tightened the girth as she glanced back at the older boy, "How am I supposed to cause trouble if everyone is watching out for me?"
She gently slid the bitless bridle onto the tall gelding, knowing he wouldn't go far and get the reins tangled, but to be cautious, she tied them as to keep them from sliding over his head. "You don't need to thank me Arthur. I think Henry has helped me as much as I have helped him." She told the older boy as she walked out of Mercury's stall to put the bridles on Mars and Venus. They were almost ready to go out onto their ride.
At hearing Arthur ask about what all Henry said about him, Logan giggled. "All good things, I promise. It is mostly just about how you are such a kind person and how you are a great brother. " She honestly wasn't sure what else to say about the older boy as she glanced out of the barn to see if she could spot her best friend anywhere.

Arthur just nodded toward the hufflepuff and finished up with grooming the three horses before setting everything back in the bag. After another minute, Henry would take another breath before entering the barn again with a smile and a attitude that he didn't just have a mini panic attack.
"Sorry about that, do either you need any help?" Henry asked looking over his best friend before turning toward his brother who passed him the grooming bag and spoke"if Logan says the grooming for them is done then I could use some help on putting the bag back." Henry would nod toward his brother and look over at his best friend with a smile and slight nudge awaiting her answer.
He would either head to the back and se the bag back or finish grooming the horses then put the bag back before returning and deciding to lightly stroke Mar's a bit as he eyed the hufflepuff before asking" so are we ready to ride now Robin?"
Smiling as the second year couldn't wait to go riding on horseback with his older brother and best friend figuring that they didn't have much longer of a wait not but wasn't completely sure.

@Henry KnightLogan glanced at Henry with a grin as he walked back into the barn. "Grooming is done, I just need to finish tacking them up quickly." She told him happily as she turned back to the horse she was on and finished putting her bridle on. She pulled the reins over the horses head as she waited for Henry to come back.
"Now we can go ride, but we need to go to the outdoor arena though." She rubbed the back of her neck with a sheepish laugh. "I'm too short to get on without the mounting block and that is were it is. But it is a short walk." She laugh as she quickly tied Mercury's reins so he couldn't trip over them. "Come on bud," she called out as she grabbed the reins of the two Friesians and made her way out of the barn, Mercury following close behind his owner and the other horses.
"Tip for horseback riding, heels down at all times and sit up straight. These two will just follow behind but it does give you more control if something were to happen." She told them with a grin on her face.
