Harper
Much like a golden retriever, Harper’s just happy to be here. He hasn’t ridden horses in some time, but it comes back easily enough, even if he had been inclined to pass at first. Wings suited him far more these days, but he’d conceded that eventually he’d need to be in the ground to help with the unicorns themselves.
Adam is the least familiar face in their little trio, but Theo is recognizable from when they’d chased off the giant chicken together. As the suggestions come, Harper swings his leg over the saddle, flexible and agile as he hops down to the ground and allows his mount to graze. “I agree with Adam. I have an elephant shift - slow moving, not a predatory animal. Maybe they’d let me closer like that, and one of you can ride on my back?” Glancing between them, Harper’s hands find his hips, rocking on his heels like an eager boy as he smiles.
For now, he wanders slowly closer, watching the unicorns out of the corner of his eye so as not to spook them by coming head on. Gauging how close they can get first. No sense in wasting any time.

Harper suggests using his elephant shift as a guide for the unicorns and slowly approaches sideways, gauging how close they can all get as humans.

I am water - soft enough to offer life
tough enough to drown it away
