Which costume for your horse?

Previously: fav.me/d6rfrut
summary of the RP we did through notes :
Michel explained Carter that Aika was pregnant but because the stable the foal was supposed to go to closed, no one has the time/will to train it. He also tells him he can train Donnecha, Beren, Lusata and Sandy Wood, who will be a pleasure horse for kids that come to BCS to learn to ride. Curious about the kids, he asks more info about them and Michel explains that most of the time the kids that come to learn are younger sisters/brothers/cousins of the staff. Michel then asks Carter about his family, but this last one doesn't want to talk about it and asks if he can think during the night about which horses he wishes to train. Meanwhile Léonie ,who got really offended by Carter's arguments, was crying and hugging Smoke. A little after, Delphine came to comfort her.
The next day, Michel announced to Léonie and Carter that they will enter the show organized by the Rosendal stables. Léonie wasn't pleased with the idea and Carter got over it, is not as if he had the choice to enter or not. He just wanted to spend the day riding and training horses without interruption in his new attire. Michel explained to both of them that if they want to reach the gold, they will have to work together sometimes. He then leaves and Carter goes over to Léonie to apologize. He then prepares Vita and brings her in the indoor riding arena where he trains her in dressage and jumping. After he finished the jumping course, Delphine compliments Carter on the last jump. Not knowing who the blond girl is, he asked her name.

"My name is Delphine Black, yeah I know, it's a pretty ironic name for a blond girl with a pale skin". She laughed a little, but stopped the second she saw he didn't find that funny.
"It wasn't funny I know... Oh and is it true you'll be training Beren? He'll be a racer and if you need any help with him I'll just have you know Hector and I can help you!"

"Well, thank you for the offer." replied Carter, who just wanted to continue to train horses. " I don't want to sound rude Delphine, but I have a lot of things to do today still so maybe we can chat later."
"Sure!" replied the blond girl, as she went out of the arena.

In the meanwhile, Léonie had entered the arena with Smoke and asked Carter if she could ask Arianne to remove some of the jumps so she could do some dressage figures with Smoke.
"Go ahead, I am pretty much finished with the jumps anyways."
Arianne arrived a few minutes later and removed the jumps before leaving again to take care of administratif stuff. She missed riding horses but that's the consequence of owning your own center.
"I'll use this half of the arena and you can use the other ok?" shouted Léonie.
Carter didn't answer, he just had to trot and walk his mare to relax her, it's not as if he needed the whole arena to do that. As he was walking with Canto Alla Vita, he watched Léonie riding beautifully the grumpy stallion. At first, his ears were back and he held his head quite high. It wasn't a difficult problem to resolve for Léonie. She made him go to an extended trot and Smoke had his ears pulled at the front and his head at the right height. Carter couldn't help but think that he was one of the most elegant horses he ever saw. He decided to stay a bit more in the arena to see what other miracles Léonie could do with her horse. Minutes passed, and Léonie decided to do one of the most complicated figures: a flying change every 2 strides. Carter simply looked at her, looking at the perfection of the movement. She then let Smoke trot a bit to relax and she patted him a lot before making him walk.
"You've been a great boy today!" She said to the stallion. She then glanced at Carter, with a death stare, before leaning forwards to scratch Smoke right under his ears, he loved that!
Carter made Vita walk up to Smoke. He wanted to compliment her on her skills.
"Hey Léonie, that was amazing!"
"What do you mean by that? Amazing for a bad trainer?!"
"No! That's not what I meant at all! What I meant was that I was wrong of judging you so fast, and calling you a bad trainer and rider. You are an excellent one." Carter's words were sincere, but it was difficult for Léonie to believe them.
"Thanks." she replied before turning Smoke's head so she wouldn't have to talk with him anymore.
"WAIT!" shouted Carter.
"What else do you want?" Léonie really didn't want to talk to the blond italian man, but stayed there. He could've had something interesting to say.
"Do you know what costume Smoke will have for the show at Rosendal?" questionned the man, in a calm and soft tone.
" No, but everyone is telling me to dress him up as a pumpkin, which couldn't be too bad." Carter had a smile on his face as he heard that.
"Yeah I know it sounds absolutely ridiculous... But why not? And what about Canto Alla Vita, what costume will she wear." Carter was surprised at such a response from the one who hated her guts.
"Well, I was thinking a ghost, even though it's not as original as a pumpkin." he replied.
"Oh, she'll probably look great in it!" Léonie wasn't quite sure what to answer.
A minute of silence passed with the two avoiding to look at each other. At some point Carter made a move by saying this:
"Both our horses had quite intensive trainings today, I think it would be best for them to rest and to start the training for the show tommorow. What do you think?"
" I was thinking the same thing actually..." Léonie moved Smoke away from Vita and Carter, who didn't try to stop her this time. She took him at the center and dismounted him before taking him back to his stall, where she found Nathann standing next to it.
"Hi my love. How did the training go?" asked the tall man.
"He was just perfect! As always!" she replied as she groomed the horse.
" I still don't understand why Michel is making the newbie enter the competiton with you instead of me. I mean, everyone knows we date each other right?"
"It's so we can get to know each other better and stuff... And don't worry, there is no way I'll hang out with another guy than you." She said, but she wasn't sure if she was being sincere by saying this. She's been with Nathann for 2 years now, but she felt like he was dating her more to brag about it rather than spending time together, something they haven't done a lot the several previous months.

Vita's just like: "Say that again hooman, I freaking dare you." and Smoke's just trying to impress her with his tongue XD
There are so many things that are wrong with the picture e.g: the helmet on Léonie's head, her arm, the noses, the mouths... GAAH. I really need to practice humans XD.
Also, here you get a glimpse of the indoor arena
