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!

"I hope your wrong," I'shan groaned, the only response he offered to the assessment of Sanderon. I'shan honestly had no idea where that would go, but he wanted badly to feel like he'd had a positive influence in at least ONE of his searchees lives. He rolled his head pathetically towards Valerian and sighed.
I'shan recognized flight angst when he saw it. An empathetic frown appeared as he thought back to his own, which had been tormenting him an awful lot of late. He inched a little closer, trying to seem reassuring without being too creepy, and shook his head.
"It sucks, doesn't it?" he said. "They don't really tell it like it is in weyrling class, I guess. They sure sugarcoated it when I was taking classes back at Fort." He pouted a bit and chewed on his tongue as he tried to think of what to say. Valerian, usually so indifferent and confident, sounded so...caught off guard by the topic. I'shan didn't want to assume that something had happened, but when Val made his stuttering comment about 'comfort' and sank into the water, there was no question.
"Aw..Valerian..." I'shan said with empathy. He wanted to reach out and hug the boy, but he didn't think that would help the situation much. "I know how that goes...it's an ugly part of it, you know? It's....so easy to get carried away and hurt someone without even realizing you're doing it. I'm sorry. Do you need to talk about it? We're both blueriders here..." He paused and swallowed hard. "I've..done things that I regret, too..."
Plenty of them. He still remembered a time when he treated his flight partners like princesses, not ravaged and harassed them. He remembered when he didn't get carried away and jerk greens around while he was drunk. He remembered when he didn't threaten greenriders with chasing their dragon and pounding them into oblivion. Shame tinted his face and weighed his voice down, more bitter then normal thanks to recent events.
"Who was it, Val? Anyone you know?"
