"Oh, shards! That makes me feel so old," I'shan said with a sincere but also nervous laugh. I'shan only looked a little bit older than Seijin, but thanks to the slower aging he enjoyed through his dragonbond, he was actually much older. "Can you believe Im thirty-four turns old? I was bonded to Ilveriath when I was only..."
He blinked. "Oh, shards. It's twenty turns, not seventeen!" he said, shaking his head absent-mindedly. "I can't believe that. Time crawls down here..." The cheerful bluerider's voice trailed away as he thought of his past. He missed his home badly, but he wasn't sure if he actually missed Fort or if he just missed the idea of classic dragonriders. He hadnt been a full rider long before the plague came down on him.
He beamed at the next part. "Now that I can deal with," he agreed. Seijin seemed like a nice kid, and I'shan had a shameful fondness for being liked, especially by younger people. It helped alleviate the guilt from avoiding his own children. He thought about them often, but he was worried about the changes that might occur in his life if he got too involved with them. These candidates that he wanted so badly to befriend almost took their place, though he'd been thinking about them an awful lot lately.
"We'll take you for another ride sometime. Ilv loves to fly. I know that sounds generic, I mean...all dragons love to fly. But Ilv in particular.." the bluerider mused airily.
