Mylorah frowned at the offered hand but relented and let him help her up to sit down. “Only for a few minutes,” she knew they had to get back before they were missed and chaos ensued. Honestly, they had probably already been spotted by the watch dragon or maybe Venseth or Tiath were lurking somewhere. But she would stick to her plan if that time came. For now, a few minutes of enjoying the still night would be okay.
Amagrith snapped at Pardrith’s tail as he darted away but didn’t pursue him. For one thing, she had been denied going into the water and by her own words had deemed it unworthy of her for the time being so she couldn’t go back on it now. But the stars also caught her attention and she stared up at the sky. It was very pretty and she could easily see herself and Mylorah sitting together and observing the stars together even when she was bigger. Maybe they could have friends with them as well. Snuggling together and just looking. It seemed peaceful. And no pouncing would be allowed! She gave her brother a look as he flopped down beside her before taking a step back. You’re filthy.
“She’s not a fan of wet sand so I can’t wait to see what happens when she discovers actual mud,” Mylorah explained with a small smile for her dragon. She personally didn’t go out of her way to jump into mud—since leaving Katila anyway—but she wasn’t one to freak out over it either. Mud happened. “But it is nice out here. Sometimes quiet and alone with your own thoughts is needed but it can also be lonely if that’s all you have.” She took Ch’es’ hand and gave it a little squeeze as a quiet sign that she wasn’t judging where he came from or still craved but that she would also be there when he didn’t want to let the loneliness sink in too deeply again.
“You were very sneaky, Pardrith,” Mylorah assured the bronze. “Your hide blends into the night very well and you were light on your feet as well. I was simply just awake. Amagrith and I have been enjoying short naps but I think they’re getting a little longer now.” Maybe in another week or so they would be getting closer to sleeping through the night and only need a little nap during the day. It would be nice to feel slightly normal again even if she was going to have to adjust to a whole new daily routine for a year.
