[ Ryouma has the benefit of animal magic to talk to it to keep it calm. There's barely so much as a pull on the reins from the horse as it takes on the extra passenger.
The problem now comes in that the horseman's sword is quite a bit heavier than his katana; it's not made to take that kind of force. He has his pistol, too, but that would mean relinquishing his grip on the reins to pull it out. He can trust his horse to go where it needs to go. It's the mindset he has to put himself into right now.
This is why he learned to fight at all, isn't it? Violence is okay when it's being used to protect others. That's what the point of this is. One shot should be enough to chase him off. ]
Cover your ears!
[ The sword comes down against the tsuba of his katana. He releases the reins and draws his revolver. A single shot rings out, aimed at the horseman's side. What damage it does really can't be said, but the sound of the gunshot alone is enough to make his horse rear up and, with the cut reins, he can't easily keep control.
Who knew the headless horseman could become the horseless headless horseman?
Ryouma's quickly to holster his pistol and regain control of his mount. No, they're not stopping, because he's still a problem with or without a horse. ]
