Hello loves! While I haven't been writing, I have been working on updating some issues that have been hanging around on the layout! The Character change box is now at the bottom of the page, beside the up/down arrows! Green and Gold dragon flight dates have been shifted to the bottom of the page, where the (useless!) discord widget was located. Where the dragon flights were in the header, is now replaced by a Monthly Event box! This will be updated at the start of each month, with a fun mini-event you can take part in, if you want to! Thistle!

B'jin's gaze flickered worriedly over R'nd's face when the younger man fell silent after asking what was obviously a rhetorical question and trying to figure out what reaction he was going to get vastly outweighed the greenrider's fleeting relief at managing to change the subject successfully. It didn't occur to the man that R'nd had just as strategically dropped it. B'jin froze when he felt R'nd's light touch lift from his waist, so preoccupied with the hand that was releasing him, he didn't notice the one that remained. His eyes narrowed slightly, the expression cautious as he waited to see how R'nd was going to react, unable to read the look in his eyes. When the hand came at his face, B'jin twitched slightly, but his faith was rewarded with a gentle touch and a soft kiss. Returning the bluerider's small smile with a tiny twist of his own lips, B'jin's fingers trailed across R'nd's waist before the greenrider's expression changed to one of startled surprise, eyes wide as he flushed mildly with both pleasure and embarrassment, ducking his head. He decided not to answer the question, figuring it to be, once more, a rhetorical thing as opposed to R'nd actually seeking a list of reasons why he would rather not hang around him. B'jin was pretty sure he could fill several books with reasons why R'nd would, should or could toss him aside. Not wanting to do that at all, B'jin remained quietly seated, fingers playing across the smooth curve of R'nd's side, unaware of his actions.
The sudden appearance of grey eyes peering up at him had B'jin responding in a breathy snort of amusement as he realised R'nd was twisting his position to meet his ducked gaze. He wasn't given the chance to lift his head of his own design, as the bluerider's fingers were gently encouraging the action; he didn't mind, and brown eyes were bright as they sought and met grey. B'jin smiled softly at his friend, the emotions fighting to win a place on his face so entangled that differentiating between them would have been impossible, even if B'jin had wanted to figure out what he was feeling as lips parted to speak. Whatever he may have been about to say, however, was washed away entirely at the gentleness of the kiss R'nd initiated. The greenrider was floored by the lightness of an action that was usually weighed downed with much heavier emotions, not the least of which was R'nd's unapologetic lust. B'jin had never minded, likely never would - he was comfortable with and enjoyed the fact that his friend wanted him - but the tenderness was new, not just from R'nd, and B'jin's response as a result was almost timid.
Larrikith's amusement was high as she felt her bonded's emotions spike in all directions, and she withdrew gently, carefully blocking their connection to be a low trickle. She would be kept up to date without being constantly bombarded by his random nose dive off the emotional roller-coaster he was currently riding. The day R'nd didn't say or do something that caused B'jin's emotions to spike in all directions would be an interesting one, Larrikith decided, wondering as she did so if it would be a good day or a bad day. Well, it would be interesting. That was all she needed to know for the time being.
I should hope not, Larrikith teased good naturedly, taking the blue's words as a compliment. She didn't think Ayyonth would be the type to tip-toe about insulting her if that was what he wished to do, at any rate. She laughed brightly at his insinuation of rewards for his rescue and her eyes sparkled with amused fondness as she gave him a coy look. Rewards, you say? There was subtle echo of laughter in her words, teasing the blue but also genuinely curious as to what he considered a reward for rescuing his pretty hide from the trees.
The little dragon considered carefully the words Ayyonth spoke to her, weighing up the risk of taking him into the forest against not doing so. She did enjoy being amongst the trees, however, and some of the groves had large spaces between the huge trunks that seemed to go up forever when one stood under them. Swirling colours lighting up her eyes, Larrikith gave Ayyonth a last considering look before humming her agreement and she dipped under him, rolling so she could reach up with both her front paws and touch them briefly to Ayyonth's, chirping cheekily as she rolled away again.
Follow me, dear one, and we will see if we can find you some trees to get stuck between! Her clearly teasing tone indicated she had no desire to get him stuck between any such things, and she zipped along over the tree tops, looking back occasionally to make sure he was on her tail before she found one of the groves that would work. Hovering above it, Larrikith gave a warble of amusement, wings folding so she dropped down into the clearing to land delicately, though she was not quite silent. Ruffling her wings to her side and folding them neatly, Larrikith trotted to the edge of the small clearing to make room for Ayyonth. It was more than big enough for them both, and the trunks of the trees surrounding it stood at a healthy enough distance apart to allow the two dragons to walk side by side easily.
