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!

All of R’nd’s fears and apprehensions vanished when I’shan opened the door. How could anyone stay upset or coiled with any amount of tension when his fellow bluerider beamed so brightly? That was probably why R’nd could never stay mad at the man for more than two minutes and always went out of his way to help I’shan, whether he knew it was done or not, and stayed such great friends. I’shan was trouble but it was fun and usually worth it – including getting punched in the face. Well, mostly. That had been a miserable night and few days following and even now R’nd wanted to rub at his cheek in memory of the pain but he ignored it. This was a night of celebration! It was a night of new beginnings as they celebrated N’gelt’s prestigious promotion, so why couldn’t they also count it as a new first impression and start over?
At least he hoped N’gelt would see it that way and not take a smile the wrong way and start a brawl. R’nd was close to worrying again about the decision to accept and then drag B’jin along. After all, he still wasn’t fond of how controlling the brownrider seemed to be given how I’shan seemed a bit more subdued and didn’t spend as much times with friends anymore. Of course R’nd failed to see how he, too, could be pinned with both charges, though he likely would have argued it was for different circumstances.
“Thanks for inviting us to share this special ni—” R’nd laughed as B’jin jumped at the idea of I’shan’s amazing food, dragging him along as well. He could understand the enthusiasm since their friend actually knew that a kitchen was used for more than alcohol storage. The laughter stopped when B’jin did, sending R’nd bumping into the greenrider since he hadn’t been paying much attention to begin with but likely wouldn’t have expected such a reaction regardless. He looked around as B’jin did, a bit confused, but said nothing as he was once more pulled along to the food. It was sort of intriguing watching how quickly his lover’s mood swung from nervous to excited several times in a matter of seconds.
As they claimed the couch and B’jin scooted closer, R’nd placed a hand on the greenrider’s knee and gave a little squeeze of reassurance. Despite his own misgivings starting to fade away under I’shan’s excitement, R’nd wanted to make sure B’jin still knew he was there for him and nothing bad would happen.
He was on his second meatroll when N’gelt finally appeared. R’nd almost choked on the delicious morsel as a brief flash of panic hit him with memories of their first meeting returning. He had been enjoying I’shan’s cooking then as well, laughing and sharing gossip. This would be different, though, it had to be. “Hey,” he found his voice after swallowing, pleased it sounded calm. “Congratulations on becoming Weyrsecond. I don’t doubt that you will do a fine job at it.” It was best to get the flattery out up front just to make sure the brownrider knew he wasn’t there to cause trouble. Besides, it wasn’t entirely a falsehood he spoke since anyone would be a better choice for Weyrsecond than S’kef. Even Kerrin wouldn’t be as horrible. Well, R’nd quickly corrected as his nightmares came back, maybe not Kerrin.
If R’nd says anything as amusing as his thoughts are currently expressing, then I suspect none of us will be bored into napping.Ayyonth chuckled softly and shared some of R’nd’s back and forth thoughts with Larrikith. He knew Ilveriath wouldn’t mind the peek given some of the crazy things they had both been witness to when their riders got together but he held off on sharing then, slightly unsure of current boundaries. It was why he didn’t even consider sharing with Saquith. He didn’t know the brown that well for starters, but since R’nd was still nervous around Saquith’s rider, it likely would have been in poor taste to mention what was thought about N’gelt.
Still, he didn’t want the quiet dragon to feel left out and asked after N’gelt. What is your rider’s current mood, Saquith? Was he surprised at the promotion? I hope he doesn’t mind such a small gathering.
