“What?” F’drel asked at L’gan’s response and offer to draw a new one, pulling the sketch out of his reach. “No, I like it, I just wasn’t expecting it, is all.” Apparently he needed to work more on hiding his reactions, because he didn’t want to upset people who were trying to do something nice for him. Or let people who were trying to get a reaction out of him feel like they succeeded. F’drel didn’t want L’gan to feel bad for a gift when it was his own life that was complicated. Though really, F’drel rather felt a fellow greenrider would have had a better sense of the awkwardness of commemorating Flights, but there they were. Miri was just that sweet looking, he supposed, and F’drel could hardly say anything against liking his dragon. “You don’t need to draw anything else,” he reassured L’gan, though seeing as he’d somehow already managed to get drawing supplies out F’drel figured he may end up with more art anyway. He really would need to get some frames.
The question about Ista had F’drel shrugging. “Nothing new that’s important, and you’ve probably heard all the older stuff.” Like a blue winning a gold Flight, but that had somehow become old news and wasn’t talked about as much, though it was picking back up again as it became clear Thallyath would indeed be Clutching. F’drel had overheard a lot of discussions about if any of the eggs would actually hatch or what colors they would have recently, thought the same conversations had been had right after the Flight itself. People just liked to gossip and repeat themselves. He could think of a few utterly trivial tidbits along the lines of ‘these two people finally got together’ or ‘she’s pregnant and you’ll never guess who the father probably is’ that F’drel found stupid but always filed away in his memory just in case he ever needed the information. Knowing if someone was mated or not could be very helpful, especially if they were a bluerider and there was a good chance he’d end up in bed with them because of a Flight.
“Anyone you’re looking for news of in particular?” he asked, raising an eyebrow at L’gan.
