"And frankly, if anything would induce you to get better at riding, it'd be seeing me look amazing on a horse and also having the promise of real competition if you get better at it." He grins at Felix. "Riding is one of the few things I get competitive about. I want to share it with you."

He chuckles at his lover's question, leaning into Felix a little. "I haven't yet. Honestly, the two of us are going to become curry connoisseurs at this rate...we're going to need to branch out soon."
