[Loudly, in case anyone has missed it. The horse whinnies sharply, an echo of his excitement, maybe slightly more panicked. Its forehooves leave the ground as it rears up--not terribly high, not terribly dangerous, but very striking, like something out of a portrait. The way he says it, it's clear that he expects applause--and, ridiculously, he gets his applause, here and there in the crowd. At the very least, there are murmurs, excited, pleased for Sabriel, in awe (for better or for worse) at the display. The moment is just that kind of a moment.]

Sabriel! You have, twice over, made me the luckiest man in all of Skyhold! This will be a night of which songs are written, truly!
