Tobin Calloway.Twenty-Two.Professional.Reliable.Roper.Reiner.
The life of a rodeo cowboy involves a lot of moving around, your only friends are at the same time you enemies. You can’t trust anyone and that’s going to have to change for Tobin. Not having any real true friends nearby make Tobin a clean slate. He’s got to start fresh and the only way to really know anything is to watch the rodeo circuit or ask of course. Tobin is pretty easy going and often willing to lend a hand. Often in times he might help over his abilities. Tobin is what most would call a ‘broken cowboy’. A big wreck ended his career maybe for now, maybe forever. With little detail the story pretty much goes like this.
Bully Dogging, Appeared to be a perfect round, off and ready to go down. Too bad the horse didn’t stop. Of course it wasn’t Raider, the horse was just as precious none the less. ‘Get Yourself a Clu’ was Tobin’s young ready to go new rodeo horse. The gelding was never at fault, nor would Tobin ever blame him. When Getcha ran over Tobin and the steer he didn’t just crush the boys leg, but tripped over the steer, got tangled up and broke a bone. With Tobin otherwise unable to make the decision himself his father made it for him. A police officer with no intent on nursing both a horse and son back to health opted to put Getcha down before Tobin even awoke in the hospital. A little anger made Tobin leave. Once he was up and ready Tobin left his home near Vancouver, Alberta, Canada. He got a job at Kent and here he is.
A heart that was never really open, no matter how nice he is. He will befriend anyone, that’s one good thing. Like the rodeo some of your best friends can be your enemies, he’ll always keep that in mind, anywhere. He’s not much for opening up with everyone, you sure have to be special, or need to hear it. Now here he is with a clean slate. He needs them all, friends, enemies, even a new lease on life. Bring it on, his family is pretty far away and this is his new place.

TOBIN & HOPE hello8D. well. i don't really know what to do with these too. hope is really friendly, and she'd probably find him interesting. i'd see hope watching him work with horses, and his students, because she just lvoes watching. she isn't the western type, but she surely desn't have the competition attitude the the english riders are known for. so i was thinking friends...
maybe we could plot up something that can stirr up drama and just be all exciting and that kinda shizz. i'm all game, just don't try and kill my character. um, i think hope would find the reining part of him fun, because before she got into show jumping with zamiro, she was training for dressage. & well many have been telling her that reining and western pleasure is just liek dressage, only in a western saddle. so she may be the type to hang around tobin, get to know as much of his knowledge as possible. and he's not that much younger than her... so she may crush on him, but she'd keep in completely invisable and she'd keep her cool. add/subtract/ deletee (:

Tobin and Hope
Let me start off with Tobin is older than Hope. Not the other way around. Tobin is 22. Hope 18. Tobin older. LOL. Surely they would make good friends. It doesn’t take tons of work to open him up. Tobin has done a lot of competing in his day and they could share that competitive nature. There are some similarities in dressage and reining. He would look awfully stupid in an English saddle. Surely it would be fun to try. Surely we could think of some awesome plot.

TOBIN & HOPE awe damn.um yeah. tobin's older... thanks for that xD
alright, so i like that idea, maybe tobin tries to teach hope to ride western, and hope could teach tobin to ride english, kinda, like, just for poop and giggles. i did not just say poop and giggles. oh damn. i'm an embrassment xD but yes. i'd say that eventually hope will look up to tobin as a big brother, and she'd probably use him to vent on ... then she'd probably crush on him, but then be like ' wtf, why am i doing this. its never gunna happen ' and then bam it could fade back into friendship, or she could keep the crush thing secretive for a long time, until he finds another girl who is all hot eyed and slutty, which he falls in love with and she could all be like ' fuck my life. ' and then she could get herself into a relationship, but her and him remain friends, and like, she could be in a real shitty relationship, and she tells him everything.. and then in the end she tells tobin and tobin can react..... how ever you want him. add/subtract/deletee. (:

Tobin and Hope
They could sure work with each other to teach the other side of the horse world for sure. Not that Tobin would have too terribly much interest as his left leg is all messed up. Though he would always give something new a try. Might be a good experience.
We could see how that whole thing plays out. We'll probably end up having to make up them as we rp together. Sounds like a pretty good idea none the less. Surely he would come fond of her over time and he might even show interest. Not really the kind of guy he is to show much interest but he might just shine through.

TOBIN & HOPE yay for plotting ~ anyways, yes, i love your idea... and besides it sounds like fun. i agree that we have to kinda just see how things fall, but it was kinda just a rough outline. the good copy will come in time. so i think it sounds great, can't wait to rp with yo - tobin xD lol, yeah... if i ever get bored -oh so rare - i'll let you know if i ever get any open threads out there, so yeah .

rushe&tobin well, rushe grew up riding western&english and dad was a rodeo star. she competes in pretty much everything a girl can compete in. goat tying, pole bending, breakaway, barrels, reining, etc. rushe currently cant ride because her mare is pregnant, and her only other horse is an english horse. -you can see her shipping for why she wont ride english- uhm, but i think they could become friends,m she's been homeschooled up until now so she could compete in everything possible and travel around for shows and rodeos. she joined the western team despite the fact she can't currently ride, and she definitely knows the only friends you have are your enemies.

Rushe and Tobin
Well there is no problem with Rushe using a lesson horse to ride. Tobin could teach her some classes even on a lesson horse. There is always a way to ride. Tobin is a super nice guy so friends being enemies would be something she would have to get over if she wanted to be his friend. He;s one of those guys that will do anything for anybody. Tobin needs friends, they might share their accident stories together. Tobin was in a pretty bad accident as well so they could share that.

RUSHE&TOBIN yeah, sounds good. im contemplating the whole idea of her mare being pregnant, and her using a lesson horse, or borrowing someone's horse. or her mare not being pregnant so she can have a good shot at western queen. but since her accident she's fearful riding even western and her mare is taking advantage of that. tobin could help her calm her fears and get back to western riding smoothly again. yeah she's over the friends being enemies thing now, but she's quiet about her accident because she feels it was her fault he died. and tobin coudl help her understand it wasnt blahblah.

Rushe and Tobin
Well Tobin's horse died in his accident, well his parents opted to put him down. He can understand the loss of a horse and share the pain of an accident. Tobin has a couple rods in his leg which cause his always limp form his left leg being broken in several places. Tobin got over those fears knowing he still had Raider, he could help her with that and maybe Raider could have a part in that.

TOBIN & BRECKAN Well, there are two trainers here. Breckan's new here, he's an Eventer trainer, but I can see these two being friends. Breck's a few years older than Tobin, he's 25, but he's just arrived and maybe the first person he meets is Tobin, or when he arrives he takes one of his horses out and they meet on the trails? But, Breckan's a nice bloke with, also easy going and reliable. He was a navy lieutenant and on the Naval Equestrian Team, but he's now just becoming a trainer. He's originally from Scotland, so he doesn't really know much of America, bit of a culture class. But, I think that's about it. So...yeah, friends?
