Tavynia’s attempt to grab his attention with his name worked. Ryvian stared, a bit wide-eyed at her for a moment until he recovered and smiled. Not many people could tell the twins apart and while he was used to Indivara and D’hys being able to, whenever anyone else managed it, it always threw him off. There was a point in his young life that he was more used to answering to Vian than his actual name. He didn’t mind, but it was always nice when someone knew who he was. Then again, with one of the twins Impressing, it made it easier to keep them straight. Ryvian had a couple of other ideas in mind to help with that as well that he’d work on soon enough.
“You don’t have to put in any special care for me. It’s not like I wear them all that much,” a fact Ryvian knew Tavynia had already picked up on with the way her gaze kept travelling over his body. It wasn’t like he minded. If he did, he wouldn’t walk around without a shirt on a normal day and certainly wouldn’t be in only shorts right then. Ryvian was an admirer of the human body – well, most bodies. Some people definitely earned the right to stay covered up! But he liked the way both men and women looked and felt if they had a rockin’ bod, then it should be shared with the world. Besides, clothing got in the way of a lot of fun activities and if he wore them more regularly since the horrible Hatching, he’d have to wash them far more regularly and that was an extremely unappealing thought!
“I have to head down the hall for a bath and then I’m off for lunch and whatever else the day holds for me, but I’ll see you later, Tavvy!” Ryvian swiftly moved forward and placed a kiss on the girl’s cheek, like he would with any of his female friends when he was in a playful mood or wanted to emphasize his gratitude. He wasn’t as close to Tavynia as he was with Indivara or some of the other girls near his age but if it felt right, Ryvian did it. “You’re such a lifesaver with this, seriously. Thanks again!” She really was, too! Indivara would probably kill him soon for his lack of cleanliness so having someone tend his clothes would help keep him alive to see his approaching birthday. Now he just had to take care of the bath and get back into the habit of doing that daily.
It was time to get on that task! Ryvian called for Tryst who popped out from behind a sack of soap to fly after the retreating twin. Ryvian stopped long enough to wave farewell at all of the women in the room that had been oddly quiet while he was there but he figured he had interrupted a story that wasn’t meant for his ears and they’d pick it back up again in a moment. He vaguely wondered who they were gossiping about but it didn’t really concern him and he vanished out of the room, heading for an open tub.
