Her strong silent champion. Rilaleeyth crooned at the gentle touch to her mind and watched, pleased, that Tyrrisath wanted to share a meal with her. She didn’t mind his silence now as he never said much to begin with but while their humans were avoiding each other, it had been horrible. This was a comfortable silence filled with his kindness toward her and not hatred. If Tyrrisath was fine with her again then J’ver would be okay with S’kef once more as well and Rilaleeyth focused on eating, taking a smaller chunk of meat to begin her meal with.
J’ver couldn’t stop the tremble that shook his body when S’kef closed in on him. It didn’t matter what was said, and he was sure he misheard the statement he wouldn’t be hurt anyway. He winced and braced for the beating he was about to get and nearly screamed when arms circled him, dragging him into an embrace. Eyes that had slammed shut cautiously opened and J’ver realised he wasn’t in pain nor did it seem likely he would be. A hug. He was being hugged? By S’kef? He glanced to the sky, certain that Thread was about to fall and destroy them all. What else could such an action mean but the end of humanity?
He never made the move to cling to the powerful man that had guided them both so well over the last several turns before S’kef pulled back. The serious expression that greeted him when he finally dared to glance up at S’kef made J’ver glad he held back. He had no place in assuming he could be so desperate as to cling to a brownrider. When the tears started to pool in the corners of those hard eyes, J’ver still couldn’t comprehend what was going on and finally decided he was about to be punished but perhaps S’kef didn’t fully like the idea of doing it this time.
“Yes, sir,” his voice didn’t tremble, to which J’ver was grateful, and he tried to hold his head high with dignity as he made his way into his hut, politely holding the door open for S’kef. Should he offer klah or some of the ale he kept stocked for when the man visited? It was the proper thing to do but J’ver didn’t chance speaking again.
