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!

Chewing thoughtfully on his lower lip, B'jin ignored the shorts that were being held up lightly by R'nd. Instead, he stared up at his lover frankly, his gaze almost vague with all the thoughts that were running through it. "Thank you," his words were quiet and whispered, the man clearly lost in his own thoughts. He raised a hand, but rather than reaching for the shorts, he brushed his fingertips lightly down the side of R'nd's face, tracking them with his eyes as they travelled. The bluerider's simple word was still whispering around his mind, and he could hear it with every beat of his heart. His hand lowered gently, trailing down R'nd's neck, over his collarbone and coming to a rest with splayed fingertips over his heart for a moment. His hand lingered, hovering just lightly enough to not apply any pressure to his touch, feeling the beat of his lover's heart.
After lingering for a few heartbeats - always, always, always - B'jin's hand shifted, hand sneaking under R'nd's arm to wrap around the younger man, pulling himself gently closer until they were pressed together. The greenrider's gaze, previously void of any particular emotion and dark with thought suddenly came alive, though the emotion brightening them was unreadable as his lips sought R'nd's, initiating another gentle kiss, his movements slow and carefully carried out, neither timid nor particularly demanding. Asking, but not waiting for the answers to be given, B'jin gently pushed R'nd over onto the sand, trailing butterfly kisses down his neck, nipping his collarbone. Raising his gaze, B'jin caught R'nd's eyes, his own begging the other rider not to say anything. He knew his kisses worked wonders when he wanted to say something, and was failing, but he was unsatisfied, worried R'nd didn't fully comprehend.
His eyes lowered from R'nd's gaze, demure and shy, though the actions that followed were far from. Words had always failed him when he wanted to share what was buried deeper than the top most surface, but even the kiss that had R'nd offering his single word promise - always, always, the gentle pulse encouraged him - he didn't feel he had conveyed all the things the bluerider made him feel right then; safe, wanted, appreciated, understood... The focus of B'jin's gentle kisses changed, returning to his lover's lips as he relaxing against the other man, enjoying the warming touch of the sun above, an addition to his bedroom that hadn't been seen since before Nirinath called the dragons back together. B'jin wasn't thinking of that, however, as he settled into the task of really showing R'nd what the bluerider meant to him, his touch light and holding just a whisper of confidence. As he trusted the dragons to keep them from detection, the greenrider started with the selection he knew R'nd most favoured, his touch sure and growing in confidence before he moved with a sly little smile, to introduce R'nd to a few new things he hadn't personally shared with his wonderful bluerider.
B'jin didn't understand what he had done to garner the attention of the bluerider, and couldn't figure out what had managed to keep the flighty man in his bed for so long. It was something he had consciously decided months before, before he'd even realised it had been a decision, not to question it for a moment. He knew he'd snapped at teasing friends to keep their smart mouths shut about his 'relationship' with the bluerider, though that had been washed away when D'ren had bellowed it to the entire Weyr; and yet it hadn't sent R'nd running. He didn't understand that, either, though the deep relief to find the bluerider still exchanging visits with him regularly had surprised B'jin. Knowing that wasn't something he wanted to analyse, B'jin had done what he does best: stored it away where he wasn't required to think about it.
What he didn't know wouldn't hurt him, right? B'jin had no desire to know what that relief might entail. He was afraid of what it might mean, and he was afraid of losing the most beautiful part of his life. He loved his children and they brought him great joy. But R'nd was different, and so much more! The bluerider was dedicated, and sweet and protective, but also determined not to baby B'jin and the greenrider appreciated that, too. B'jin was deeply proud, and while the lifestyle of Katila had done little to cater to B'jin's pride or put it on show very often, it didn't remove that thick streak from who he was - it just kept it out of sight.
B'jin pressed a final kiss to R'nd's lips, the action delicately tender and verging on shy, despite his confidence of moments before, eyes downcast shyly as the greenrider curled preciously against R'nd, resting his head upon the bluerider's chest and reassuring himself with the elevated beat - always, always, always!
Larrikith's gaze, soft and proud, shifted to look at Ayyonth, nudging the blue's cheek before licking him affectionately and nuzzling his neck. Soon, she whispered softly to the other dragon, positively tingling with the emotions swirling lazily through her rider. He hadn't quite recognised his own emotions, yet, but he was close, so close!
[sup]i didn't really point it out, but imagine the two babbling paragraphs in the middle there are a "fade out" and suitable time passé before Jinny snuggles up lol.[/sup]
