“I know you weren’t, Venseth,” V’ler replied, catching the blue’s gaze to show he spoke in truth and then turned a little grin on Indivara. “But you can never truly tell with this one.” While he wouldn’t say he knew her inside and out, V’ler knew he could claim he was beginning to and that Indivara had grown considerably from the early days of their introduction. She wasn’t climbing trees to throw sticks and stones at him anymore so that alone told the bluerider the girl wasn’t quite as bad as she was.
Indivara also wasn’t picking as many fights with other ‘Northerners’ as she once had and as far as V’ler knew, no one else was sporting a broken nose because of her fist. Still, she was secretive, never having been one to talk about herself or what she wanted or dreamed about. That was the real reason why he was there. He had left her alone long enough in the hopes Indivara would find what she was looking for but with the type of moods she could come home in, it didn’t seem like that had happened. So it was time to see if he could be a supportive friend again and offer a hand.
“Figured you could use a partner in crime in case you were up to something,” V’ler spoke casually, as if it was something he offered up all the time while he rubbed at an ink stain on the side of a finger. He was usually a tidy writer but there were times when he was wrapped up in a song that he smudged a line that hadn’t fully dried or left droplets of ink that his hand found when he brushed something aside. Early that morning had been one of those times as he frantically wrote out a melody that had been haunting his dreams. The music was now securely embedded in the sheets of paper but it was also on his skin, the quick scrubbing with soap not having done much.
Oh, I like when you play together. You are good partners as well. What are you two going to do, Indivara? Veeth’s innocence never ceased to amuse V’ler and he smirked at his dragon’s phrasing that he knew wasn’t riddled with the double entendre that he still heard anyway.
