Mylorah was biting her lip to stifle a giggle as A'tay left. Gangleri was behaving and probably the most reserved she had ever seen him, yet her brother was flustered and going full blown shy on them. He had come out of his shell a lot thanks to Zelly and the mentor program he had joined not too long ago but it seemed new people were still a tad overwhelming for him. Or maybe it really was just Gangleri. She rolled her eyes but was still smiling when he mentioned the score card. "We didn't start it. Most of us just find it funny." She wasn't sure if A'tay actually knew about it or if he pretended he wasn't a part of it. She, at least, typically didn't bring up sexy time chats with him or Wynera. Zory used to be counted in that but he was flourishing, even if he did blush through a lot of it.
As they walked, Mylorah asked a few more questions about Geric. Since he was described as shy, she was picturing someone like A'tay but wanted to know a little more so she knew how to act. She was about to find out as they entered the home and spotted the man, distracting Mylorah from the question while she silently watched Geric work on whatever he was writing. Mylorah decided maybe he was more like Orgailian. Not that he was shy in any way but his standoffish attitude that made it easy for him to ignore the presence of other people while he focused on his writing was seen right then right down to the way Geric was sitting. She really wanted to say hi and see what Geric was working on but she was trying to behave and make a good first impression so she nodded at Gangleri and the idea of the tour. She also circled back to the question about instruments.
"I've never played a real instrument before. We used to make little whistles and pipes out of reeds in Katila. There was a little patch of them that kept growing in one specific spot that was within the area we could safely play around in." She smiled fondly at the memory and how the older kids would make them for her and the younger ones until she became old enough to start making them as well. They were all terrible and used more just as noisemakers than for making actual music but it was fun and that was the important part. "We were terrible but still pretended to have fancy gathers like we were told about in stories or mimicking the parties the adults had in Katila. So maybe a wind instrument? I never thought about learning anything since coming North. T'ryn and Orgailian can play a little guitar."
