"Greetings, friend! What strange garb you dress in, for this time period, in our fair medieval city...I am but a simple steed, awaiting my turn at the farrier to be re-shod. Shall I teach you about the exciting world of shoeing?
...Kind sir, what do you refer to when you say 'break character?' ...Hang on...ok, yeah you're right, I think everyone else is out to lunch, you picked a slow time to come through. Uuuuuggghhh, I am so tired of giving that educational spiel about horseshoes! It's even worse when the dude is here to re-shoe me, my hooves are in terrible condition with all the constant re-dos. I'm supposed to get a break from that every once in a while to let them grow out, but the other girl quit so I've been the only one who can do this for a couple of months now.
Hm? Yes, I'm a real, actual horse girl, this isn't some kind of suit. And us real, actual horse girls have needs too...hey, um...I think I've got a couple more minutes here, if you want to step into the alley over there, I could make it worth your while..."
