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!

Bordtai scuffed his feet upon the path as he walked, both hands once more in his pockets as he watched his feet rather than where he was going. After the hatching, Bordtai had helped a fellow weyrbrat back to her bunk. He’d been selfish in doing so – wanting to make himself feel better after being found unsuitable by the little green that had snuffled around his feet. It hurt worse than his first hatching. He’d told himself the first time it was okay he didn’t impress since all of the dragons had been girls – but having a green snuffle around his feet this time… He would have been happy with a girl he was sure. A dragon was a dragon after all.
But even a girl hadn’t wanted him. And from Torath’s clutch too!
With a bit of a groan, he kicked hard at a stone on the path, sending it bouncing off a nearby hut wall. He had been so sure, so confident that if a dragon was out there for him, it would have been from one of the eggs Torath had made the gold produce. He had been wrong and it was a shock to his confidence. Why, he’d even had a good response at the touching! Bordtai certainly hadn’t missed that the first egg he’d touched and felt like he’d gotten a good response from had hatched a bronze. But the bronze hadn’t even given him a second look.
Sighing, he stopped in his walking and looked up at the dark grey sky. He was honestly surprised that it wasn’t raining yet. Lowering his gaze, he took a moment to look around to see where his feet had taken him. With some surprise, he found himself in front of a familiar hut that had belonged to a monster of a man. N’kal of Bronze Torath. The same bronze who’s children had left him standing.
He took a long, deep breath as he considered the man. It had been a while since he’d spoken with him. A long while. Though it was understandable, neither male was much of the talking sort but Bordtai felt himself drawn to the door. As he raised his hand to rap his knuckles against the wood, he wondered what he was even going to say. He hadn’t planned the visit at all, but since he was here…
