Vee was completely lost in the misery of her own thoughts that she had created, staring off into the distance, when a soft voice brought her from said thoughts. She blinked and was rather surprised when she turned her head in the direction of the voice, to see Ameris and her new gold hatchling standing by her. Her heart constricted slightly as dark eyes fell on and looked over the hatchling, but she took a staggered breath and lifted her gaze once more to meet Ameris'. A small smile slid over her lips, half strained, though she couldn't deny she was glad to see the woman or that she was terribly happy for her, and proud of her as well. She had waited as long if not longer to Impress, and she had finally been found by her dragon. It was funny, Vee thought after a moment, how life seemed to work, and tonight it seemed she was not to hide away from life no matter how much she wanted to, granted she wasn't really trying to hide, she had just not felt the best company for talking to Ameris, or anyone for that matter. At least she wasn't crying...she could hide her hurt from Ameris, better than she could from K'ton at least. Maybe. Crying however, was not something she could hide from anyone.
She stood, not wishing to be rude any longer, brushed herself off, and made herself give Ameris a better smile, it wasn't all that bright, nor did it reach her eyes, but it was better than the half hearted one she had previously offered. "I'm just...", she blinked slowly. What the hell was she doing? Wallowing in self pity and headed for self loathing. What she said after shaking her head slightly was, "Just thinking...nothing important.", she said with a small wave of her hand, trying to dismiss the matter. To further try to derail talking about herself she looked at her friend's bonded dragon and asked, "So, are you going to introduce me?" Her dragon was a beautiful shade of yellow and Vee was certain she would grow into a very beautiful queen. She found her thoughts drifting off to her grandmother, wondering what she had felt all those Turns ago when she had Impressed her Kalesseth. It had been one of the few stories she had never relayed, but there had always been others for her to lose herself in. She missed her grandmother, her MeMe, and wished she had been able to travel south with her. She would have known what she was doing wrong, she would have been able to help, had she not lost most of her mind anyway. She pushed her thoughts away yet again, trying to focus on her friend standing before her.
