In terms of looking for horses in art history depictions of the Anglo-Saxon noblewoman Lady Godiva are a good place to start. The legend that she is known for tells of her riding naked - only covered by her long hair - through the streets of Coventry in a stand against the oppressive taxation her husband Leofric had imposed on his tenants.

SCULPTURE: “LADY GODIVA” by John Thomas (1813 - 1862), UK.
According to the legend dating back to at least the 13th century, Lady Godiva (b. around 1040 — d. between 1066 and 1086), a countess whose name (Godgifu or Godgyfu) translates from Latin as 'gift of God,' rode through the streets of Coventry, Warwickshire, England, in 11th century AD, with nothing but her long hair covering her.
This act was a condition set by her husband Leofric, Earl of Mercia, to lower taxes for the people.
She rode through the town while the inhabitants stayed indoors with windows and doors shut.
According to that legend, her husband, moved by her bravery, kept his promise and reduced the taxes.
This myth portrays Lady Godiva as possibly the first woman to use her body to defend a social cause.

StrangeSpot, Round Thirty Two: Research (Uni)
The Research team take a trip to the BOOKMOBILE to hit the books and get assignments done. Several LGU dormies show up too (maybe they're jealous that Anna is playable now, but they'll get their turn eventually)!
Studying keep the Vandermorgan brothers from beefing with each other due to the events of last round. There is a positive out of all of it: Taron and Tara fall in love.
Marco, missing Leela's company, invites his late father's girlfriend Jill on a date. Weirdly, she accepts. Even more weirdly, her boyfriend Rocky walks by and sees them making out. The two have a falling out and Marco finds the whole monogamy thing so boring.
Taron graduates because he studied so hard, and Marco is expelled because he didn't study at all. The guy was on academic probation so much I'm surprised the uni gave him a shot at all, lol.

Predator (1987). A team of commandos on a mission in a Central American jungle find themselves hunted by an extraterrestrial warrior.
As it turns out, I definitely prefer my machismo soaked 80s action films when they're slashers. 7.5/10,

Ive been feeling the need to go back and work on The Wretched Ones, but i left off in a spot that doesnt have John or Charlie. I felt the need to portray the more intimate part of their relationship (with lots of face touching)
I need to come up with a ship name for them. JoChar? Johnlie? Charn?
