Hey, Grainne. [Linda is surprised to see her. even at this point, she's no less confused about what Grainne told her the last time they spoke, but she's decided to take it all at face value for now. it seems the easiest way to handle things] What are you riding for the race?

[at that question, she sighs] I'm pretty tired. It's been a long day, and I didn't realize I'd be so bad at riding.

What about you?
