T’bia lifted his gaze to stare at R’nd in horror as the other bluerider spurted a sudden array of questions, the focus clearly on the health and wellbeing of Jycenth. The youngster shook his head earnestly, eyes wide, and waved his hands around in front of him in an effort to ward off R’nd’s questions. T’bia let his hands fall into his lap and took a deep breath, as, whether it was his own actions or not, R’nd calmed and said his name, though he did flinch slightly at it. He stared quietly at the hand on his knee, using it as an excuse to avoid looking into R’nd’s face. His stomach fluttered at the friendly motion, but he was too saddened by the knowledge he’d broken his dragon to take any heart in it.
“I broke him,” both sullen and heartbroken, T’bia’s lower lip trembled after he spoke and he bit down on it to stop it. Blue eyes swimming in tears looked up at R’nd, his face flushed shamefully and T’bia shook his head, causing tears to spill down his cheeks. “He isn’t like the other d-d-dragons, and it’s all my f-f-fault.” Sniffling, T’bia fought bravely to not actively burst into tears before his friend, though it was a hard won battle, he did, nonetheless, win it, despite the silent tears that continued to paint his cheeks.
