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!

It had been a good day, she thought with a sleepy, satisfied smile. Up early, out to the gardens, work on weeding. Break. Oil the beasts, wash laundry, find her way to have lunch. It had been pretty much go, go, go since she had gotten up, and it wasn't likely to change now, if her energy levels were any indication. She just wanted to do stuff. She felt the need to be active, and there was going to be no stopping her from doing what she was going to do!
That was, until Knack perked up from her shoulders and crooned, his eyes flashing at her as he turned to the Hatching Grounds. Blinking, she begin to walk that way, curious what had gotten the surprisingly quiet beast all riled up. Seconds later, Kaylee and Edge burst into the air above her, wheeling and humming loudly. She snapped her fingers, and they settled onto her shirt meekly, but the humming didn't stop. Their excitement seemed to be spreading like wildfire, and the hum of dragons could be heard, the closer they got.
...Oh.
She looked in dismay at the soaked tunic she was wearing, her eyes closing in irritation at the seemingly bad timing. Oh, well. The heat of the Sands would dry her out. A thrill of fear shot up her spine, and she found herself reluctantly approaching the grounds more and more, finally dragging her feet once she got to the entrance. She didn't want to be here without Quenym. This was supposed to be something they did together. She couldn't imagine BEING here without Quenym.
But it was a Hatching, and she was already here. Besides, she knew certain people would be watching out, waiting to see how she did. She didn't really expect to Impress - no one did on their first Hatching - and she still wasn't sure how she really felt about this whole thing. But like Z'jan had said...commit to it. Never look back.
She straightened her spine at that moment, holding her head high as her wet hair clung to her face, and marched right into the sands to stand beside the other girls. She technically fell into the purview of gold candidate, but she glanced occasionally at the other eggs, wondering if she might not find her other half among them. As she stood, feeling the heat begin to rise and warm her, she sent Kaylee and Edge to sit on ledges near some of the dragons. They immediately went towards Nishkath, crooning a hello. Knack remained around Casa's neck, eyes intent on the eggs as he so gently hummed, waiting for the cracking of the shells.
