Nah. Ain't a matter of language. But you spend long enough with another soul, no matter what that soul may be, an' you pick up a thing or two in that time.
( sko' may be a great horse, fae-touched and immortal and on fire half the time, but he's still just a horse. he's just had longer than most to learn and grow, and he was smarter than most horses anyway in the beginning. it was why nero chose him. )
It's more about observation and payin' mind. Watch the ears. See the way they flick?
( skokash has one cocked forward, the other turned back. )
When a horse is angry, they'll both be laid back flat. Right now, he's just curious about what we've got going on back here. If they're both ahead, he's alert for something off in the distance. If they sort of twitch in a bunch of different directions but, like, lazy about it, that means he's pretty chill and relaxed. Horses are a prey creature, so they gotta be careful about things like wildcats an' the like.
