[No one has anything to fear from him until Odin gets on his back and says, hey bro, we have some ass to kick. Then there should be all the fear ever because Sleipnir is such a badass. Otherwise? He's a pretty cool dude.
Ugh, not another intended pun!!!
Jack needs to check his can't-touch-water privilege, because the Wicked Witch of the West wasn't mentioned as being stinky, and people used what they had to in order to get clean, okay? Check it, sir. But either way, there's only one real way to see how well Jack avoids dirt, and that is by Sleipnir snorting. Nostrils flare, spit and horse snot go everywhere, all of it.
Sorry your pretty face is going to be assaulted by disgusting horse goo, but it's for science! He has to know.]
of course, it only lasts for about two seconds before it just freezes and slides right off him. still, his face, it is full of disgust. d i s g u s t, sir. ]
[GODHORSE SNOT Sleipnir is truly a horse of a different color in the way he's a horse of a different breed and everything else. But it was necessary, and watching it freeze up and slide off has him drawing his head back in what's obviously delight. In fact, if Jack was a bit sturdier, he'd probably be nuzzling up against—
Oh, like it matters. Gross? How's having a muzzle right next to his ear in what is obviously a fond, rubbing gesture that clearly means Jack is okay in his book?
...and should probably pet him a lot more because that is really quite thrilling and considering who his mom is, he does like a thrill.]
[ okay, was godhorse snot a gesture of affection in asgard?! jack has no way of knowing, but at least the nuzzling is pretty telling. maybe. hopefully.
and godhorse isn't flipping out about jack being so cold, either. huh. must come of having a frost giant for a mom.
he is.. tentatively reaching up to pat him again, huffing a little because jack has a reputation to maintain!! ]
Well, I guess every good winter-king needs a scary friend.
[No, Jack. Every scary eight-legged horse needs a winter-king friend. It goes both ways!
Sleipnir can run through all Nine Realms and carries the god of gods on his back, bro. A little chill nature? Not going to bother him.
Scary?
That makes him draw his head back, though, and if horses had eyebrows to lift, he would. As it is, that spot of his head that seems like the equivalent of an eyebrow twitches.
Am I really?
Fluff the ego, Jack. Fluff the ego and he will literally show you the world.]
[Oh his Rider, itty bitty humanoid creature teeth. They're so...odd, really. They fall out, too, and then they grow back in, and Sleipnir doesn't know if his ever did that. He can't remember. It's been a long damn time since he was a pony. That, and he seems to be the only one running around with dental tattoos, and that is a damn shame.
Sleipnir can't do that because he doesn't have hands (in case Jack couldn't figure that out himself). He knows he looks rather terrifying with his lips pulled back all the way, however, and now is not the time to show off all his awesome teeth tats.
Odin deserves only the best, and that is what he shall have. You have no steed?]

[ he gives him another pat, then leans back to hook his index fingers in the corners of his mouth, pulling to show off his own teeth. ]
'S the teeth, maybe. And all eight legs. Odin's a lucky dude.
