He was right, she knew he was right, but that didn’t stop the angry tears that threatened to fall or the way her mouth contorted into a hard line as she struggled anyway before falling still as the two dragonets vanished between forever and the body of the young man was left lying in the sand, devoid of life. “I could have helped!” M’quel burst out angrily, the tears falling even as she was roughly pulled into a hug and away from the sight. “I could have helped,” she murmured tearful and regretful, but no longer fighting.
Clinging to Orgailian for a few moments, M’quel took a deep breath before stepping back, she pursed her lips, then leaned up on her toes to press a light kiss against Orgailian’s cheek. “Don’t tell Quin,” she half asked, half told him, her lips twisted ruefully. She could only imagine his worry if he knew about the hell that was breaking out on the sands at this hatching, and the memories it would spike in her boyfriend with regards to his own time on the sands, when she wasn’t there. It would be so much better when he was fully graduated and able to attend the Hatchings with her!
“Oh!” M’quel gave Orgailian’s arm a squeeze and then darted past him, fussing under her breath at the latest candidate to join the throng of people that had been attacked while on the sands. Her gaze glanced to the side where she could hear the one healer being harsh with a young woman whose leg was clawed up, and M’quel resisted the urge to shove her way in and take over. He was not a people person, but he was good at his job. Instead, M’quel focused on her latest patient, missing out on the antics taking place on the sands. When she’d finished with the young man, the Hatching was officially over.
M’quel sat back on her heels, then moved to wash her hands in a basin and look about for her friends. She spotted A’tay, and waved, but figured he would probably be more interested in checking in on his girlfriend than her, which kind of sucked, but it was what it was. After a moment, M’quel made her way towards A’tay and his friends; she didn’t know most of them very well, but she also hadn’t seen A’tay in forever and it would be nice to catch up some!
