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!

T'ryn chuckled at how Ereben seemed to be trying to align him from bronzerider to also a parent. He conceded that wondering if someone had children wasn't something he immediately did either, just like he knew he looked--and was--young. "These two will be three in month five, and we also have Zafris, who is eight months old." It didn't matter that Yfris was technically Zafris' father, not when the lordling didn't want to do the fathering thing and Cazan liked to point out how they had three kids and were a family. Ereben also didn't need to know that detail or how confusing the relationships and arrangements he and Cazan had were.
T'ryn noticed the way Carynza was staring and making Ereben a bit uncomfortable, so he gave her a gentle nudge and whispered for her to say hello--which she did before starting to babble about... something. She was the more talkative of the two, but not everything that came out of her mouth was coherent yet. The healers insisted the twins were both maturing properly, even Vayren with how he often let Carynza talk for them both. When she paused, clearly expecting a reply, T'ryn encouraged Ereben to just give a nod which was enough for the girl who turned her attention to her brother.
"And they would be right," T'ryn agreed, hoping Ereben wouldn't become discouraged or lose hope of Impressing if a few more Hatchings went by without it happening. He also didn't point out that he himself had Impressed at his first Hatching since it really was a rarity. Yes, it happened, but with the amount of Candidates Standing, the odds were low. Ereben probably had that drilled into his head with all of the lessons before and after a Hatching, so he didn't bother with a pep talk, just some excitement at seeing his friend--though said friend quickly changed the subject to hot chocolate which caught the kids' attention.
"Teyyn, I want it," Carynza pointed to Ereben's drink and Vayren nodded in agreement. Of course they did.
"I've had it before, but I'm not big on sweets. The twins, however, love it and I can blame my sister Mylorah for that. She decided she would be the cool aunt that fills them with chocolate and then sends them home." As annoying as it was to deal with the sugar rush and crash, at least Mylorah was willing to watch them sometimes so he had yet to complain about it.
"Let's go inside and get some drinks," T'ryn told his kids, as he waved them inside. Then he turned to Ereben with a grin, "you as well. You brought this chocolatey treat upon us so you get to keep me company a while longer. If you could grab a table and watch them for a minute, I'll get their drinks and snacks."
