Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

"My horse! Hold your fire--he has my horse!"

To stop firing would be "suspendre le tir", but I think you probably want "ne pas tirer" which would convey not starting to fire. So, that gives:

Mon cheval! Ne tirez pas--il a mon cheval!

But I would probably say "il a pris mon cheval" (he has taken my horse). It just "yells" better with the extra syllable.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What colour is yours, Burrell?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Happy Scrappy Day!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

How could the first horse have died, preferably in a way that's not my character's fault but that he could feel guilty about anyway? I thought of stepping in a rabbit hole, but that seems too cliche. They're in moderately rough/hilly country, FWIW, and the horsie that has to die is a fine Irish-bred hunter.

Based on something that happened to someone my dad knew, (whitefonted to spare those who'd rather not read about horsie death) the horse could misstep while taking an obstacle (fence, fallen tree, stone wall) fall onto a rather large broken branch, getting one hell of a puncture wound in its neck and bleeding out nastily.

“Not dead yet!”
