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!

Valerian didn’t quite know what to do with the kiss to his neck. It was something he didn’t particularly associate to Talian – at least not while the Healer was sober. He had been plenty bold after a little alcohol and seemed right at home in the lap he had made into a chair but now was something different. There was a hint of there being a chance for something more behind the way lips pressed to his neck but the vibe around them suggested Talian wasn’t going to push for it and Valerian was willing to bet he could turn to his friend and see his face taking on a nice hue of crimson.
What was he supposed to do now?
It was different with Erisi since the green weyrling had been the one to initiate sexual interactions between them and since then their easy-going friendship and their understanding of what sex was between them had made it easy enough for either of them to make the first move. With Talian, Valerian didn’t know what was acceptable. He felt it had been a huge risk to simply place his hand on his friend’s so he certainly didn’t know the limits and he blamed himself for that. It was because of the little crush he seemed to have developed on first Allendris to a lesser degree and now on Talian which had started with all of their personal talks of the past and trying to help the Healer that was so in need of someone understanding him or being there for him. That was all well and good but to have opened his big mouth during the birthday celebration and tell Talian there was an attraction there had made things awkward in a new way that the horrible flight incident couldn’t touch.
“Talian, what I said before… I meant it,” Valerian spoke in his usual mellow tones and looked down at his mug, making no movement to pull away. He really wasn’t one to doubt himself and while he could read a situation fairly well when he wanted to, the Harper also wasn’t one to monitor what he said and preferred to just say what was on his mind. So he did, referencing back to the night he said he wanted his friend but they had to be sober and both want it. Whether or not that was what this moment was leading to didn’t matter but he wanted the reminder out there given Talian was being so bold and oddly enough Valerian preferred to have a bit of a guideline in such situations. Besides, past events made it hard for Valerian to be the one to make a first moves with this friend as he never wanted to force himself on someone again.
