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!

V’ler was trailing behind his excited friends, still wondering if he could sneak away without incurring the wrath of Indivara when she started pointing and asking questions. He realised in that moment that Indivara, and possibly even R’vi if he didn’t explore much, had never seen snow or ice before. He knew he had had that thought in the past but it didn’t truly sink in until that very moment when Indivara turned wide eyes his way and needed to know what was going on. He tried to reply but got a mouthful of warm scarf and V’ler tugged it back down again, miserable that he couldn’t stay bundled up entirely.
“They have blades on their feet to make skates. Makes it easier to glide on the ice and it’s called skating,” V’ler replied as he watched the skaters for a moment before turning back to Indivara, ready to answer her question about if they could do it or not. That was sort of trick question. They could definitely get some skates and try skating but it’d likely end with a lot of bruises.
However, he didn’t get a chance to explain any of that thanks to a large blue dragon suddenly trying his own luck on the slick surface. The screech for Indivara actually startled V’ler as well and he watched wide-eyed and slack-jawed as Venseth did his best to regain his footing. Then he remembered he was bonded to an excitable blue dragon and quickly glanced around for Veeth, finding him off to one side of the pond pacing back and forth and making a noise V’ler could only call a squeak of panic.
“Veeth, he’s okay. It’s just very slippery, like those smooth flat rocks in the rain but a bit worse,” V’ler tried to explain to Veeth in order to get him to calm down. His panicking likely didn’t help Venseth any either and if they could get one calmed down, the other would as well. Venseth would likely have to keep slipping and sliding his way to the edge at this point. No way was he going to suggest trying to go between from the ground. That was dangerous for even an older pair and V’ler had a slight fear of betweening thanks to losing a classmate when they first learned how to do the damn thing. He didn’t want to lose Venseth or risk Indivara dying or ending up like Jajojin and the other dragonless.
Veeth soon stopped pacing and squeaking after a little more coaxing and assurance everything was okay. Now they just had to get a dragon off the ice that was thankfully rather thick.
