Adam walked through the tack shop calmly, heading over towards the halter area, after all, his horses would need two new show halters when they started showing. Necromancer's other gear was good, but the halter was old and frayed, and Apocalypse, well, she needed something that fitted her properly. He threaded a shapely black leather arabian show halter through his hands, mentally picturing how it would look on his mare's head and smiled slightly at the picture formed. Yes, this one would due nicely for her, very nicely. Pulling the halter off the rack he looked down the other show halters and smiled softly spotting a bright white one that would show against Necromancer perfectly. He grabbed a matching lead for each halter and started to roam the shop, looking for stuff for his own horses, and for some of the newcomers that didn't quite understand what they needed for their horses. Awww, wasn't he such a nice guy.

Shelia walked in. She was looking for a tack set for Only a Dream. She walked into the shop. She started with the halters. She looked through the halters. She wanted a nylon halter because Only a Dream wouldn't be showing in halter and didn't need the full leather. She rummaged through a few options but sighed at every attempt of what it would look like on the Bay Thoroughbred. She rummaged through more options, sighing at every one. Maybe a leather one would do for the mare. She shook her head at at the thought. No, not until she had enough money to afford a leather halter. She sighed as she continued rummaging through nylon halters. She soon became frustrated and decided to go back through. There was one that could do nicely for her mare. She began searching for it, ignoring most of the others in the store, although they would have the best luck in talking to her because they had to like horses, she was too shy to talk to anyone.

Adam glanced around curiously, just merely to see if anyone else was here and spotted a younger blonde girl headed over towards the halter racks. She looked somewhat familiar. Maybe he'd seen her when he'd been roaming the grounds of his stable? That was a good possibilty. Deciding that he'd be friendly for once, he walked towards her calmly, scuffing his shoes slightly so he wouldn't be materializing out of nowhere on the girl. "Are you part of the Desert Moon Stables?" He asked calmly, standing to one side noticing that she was fishing through the nylon halters and almost seemed reluctant to touch the leather ones. Well, he could fix that easily as long as she was part of his stables, he wasn't about to help any of that sun stable.

She shifted through the halters until she found the one she was looking for. It would do she guessed. She then turned to the boy who was apparently talking to her. She looked around to see if there was anyone else who he could be talking to. Seeing no one she looked to him. "Uh, ya," she said, looking at him awkwardly, "You?" she asked. She kept a guarded look on her, for all she knew he could be part of the sun stable. Then again he looked somewhat familiar. Maybe he was from sun stable. "Wait, don't let your guard down, Shelia," she thought to herself. She simply looked at the boy, holding that halter that could be suitable for Only a Dream.

One eyebrow raised slightly when she questioned him after admitting she was part of his stables. He smiled slightly. "I own the Desert Moon Stables." He said calmly. He noted that she'd found a nylon halter she liked. He wasn't really fond of the nylon ones, perferring the rope and leather ones himself. "Go ahead and grab a leather halter and I'll get it for you, I have to get some halters and stuff for the new riders at the stables anyways when their horses arrive." He said calmly. Such a sweet man when he wanted to be, which wasn't always that often.

"Oh," she said. "Um, if you're sure," she said. She grabbed a black leather halter. She smiled. "Are you totally sure?" she asked as she held up the halter. "Dream doesn't compete in halter or anything so she doesn't need a really nice one." He seemed like a nice enough man. "Oh and I'm Shelia, sorry I haven't formally introduced myself. And if you own Desert Moon Stables you must be Adam."

He nodded calmly. "I don't mind and yes, I'm Adam." He said calmly. "Think of it sort of as a morale booster, horses seem to like having the fancier stuff even for their basic equiptment, makes 'em happier and sometimes helps them with their showing. At least that's how it is with my stallion." He said calmly. It was true, he'd noticed it on a couple other horses too which is why he'd said it, but he couldn't quite remember the other horses. Hmmm, must have been from a while ago or something.

Shelia smiled. "Well thank you very much, Adam, I did not know that. Well it's probably the same with my mare then," she said. She took the leather halter up to the cashier to buy it.

Adam nodded calmly. He reached onto another rack and grabbed a good handful of rope halters. These where merely for emergencies, and for any people that showed up out of the blue as happened sometimes. He was just being prepared. He glanced around, grumbling slightly. He'd have to wait a little bit before coming back to find some tack for his white mare, ah well. He walked after the girl and mentioned that he was also buying the leather halter held by the girl and waited as it was all rang up and a total was given. He wrote out a check and gave it to the cashier and handed the girl her halter. "Have fun with your horse, and don't mind either of my horses too much, the dark grey arabian stallion, and the white arabian mare." He said calmly, walking out of the store slowly and calmly incase she wanted to catch up and talk. He was being oddly friendly and nice right now. Hmmmm. Must have been in a good mood.

"Oh yah," Shelia said, "Dream is...well...a dream. Y'know. Speaking of Dream I have to get back to check on her. Just to make sure she gets used to her new location. I've been trying to be with her as much as possible to help her. She's ok, but I really want to be there for her." She grabbed the leather halter. "Thank you so much for this, Adam. It was nice meeting you. I'll see you around." She smiled and ran off.

Adam nodded calmly. A beginner horse it seemed like that the girl owned. Either that or a very well broke mare, or simply a docile horse. Either way, as long as the pair worked together fine, and would be able to show well, he didn't mind. "I know how that can be, especially when Necromancer, my stallion arrived a while ago. Of course he was also basically wild and tried to jump a few fences to get to some of the mares." He said calmly before she left. He simply waved at her retreating form before heading towards his car, and throwing the halters into the back before heading back to the stables. He needed to check on his mare after all.
