Valerian was often seen as holding a neutral or bored expression but he did know how to laugh and show other types of emotion, especially if it was associated with teasing another. At the thought of writing the ballad Erisi suggested, he cracked a smile and chuckled softly. Even with the suggestion given in a playful manner, Valerian thought it would be a good way to pass the time. He seemed to be accepting the ruination of his life a tad better than his fellow harper but it would undoubtedly do them both well to vent a bit in lyrics, even if they only ended up burning the parchment before a dragonrider saw it. The other Candidates would appreciate it as well if they were kind enough to share what was bound to be an epic creation with two like-minded incredible men at the task.
Getting to his feet, Valerian slapped off the various forest debris clinging to his pants and made the bold move of walking around the tree to take in his new acquaintance. He was reasonably attractive despite the scowl that he suspected was in place constantly since arriving at Katila, but good looks was a nice bonus. He didn’t have a rule where only the beautiful people could be his friends, though he suspected some of the riders did with the little groups that formed at meals, but it wasn’t a bad thing either if that was how it ended up. He’d claim they were muses for his writing. “Sounds like fun. We could do a good foot-stomping, sing-along-while-you-drink tune as well that can be more about mocking of the dragonriders.”
