Ilveriath lay as a sharp contrast to Saquith’s energy. The blue was on his back in his wallow, with legs, tail, wings, and neck sprawled in every direction. He was doing his best to absorb the last hour of sunshine before nightfall. The weather was glorious for flight, but the languid blue just couldn’t be bothered to rouse himself. He was taking up far more space on the ground than a small dragon should, though he didn’t look quite as small as he was thanks to his sinewy neck and tapering tail. He was long and thin, fragile and graceful looking like a kite.
He didn’t bother to open his eyes as he sensed Saquith’s approach. That took energy. And a glorious evening to you two as well, Saquith. What brings you here? the blue asked lazily. He yawned and wriggled a bit, trying to get comfortable.
Ever since B’jin’s lashing, Ilveriath had been much more at ease with N’gelt. The brownrider had proven that he was going to take good care of I’shan, and that was good enough. In spite of a somewhat bad start with Saquith, Ilveriath had come to like the brown quite a lot as well. Saquith was so innocent and fun to be around, it amused the perpetually bored blue and gave him something else to coddle.
Ilveriath finally rolled onto his belly and yawned, looking up at Saquith with shining blue eyes. For reasons I cannot explain, the blue said, I have an excellent feeling about tonight. Ilveriath didn’t have the energy to bounce, but he did lift his slender neck and press his snout dotingly against Saquith’s.
Inside, I’shan bolted eagerly to the door the moment Ilveriath alerted him to Saquith’s approach. I’shan smiled, greeting his lover with all his usual enthusiasm, and threw his arms around the man. “N’gelt! What’s the occasion?” he purred. He imagined it would be the usual; dinner and sex. But N’gelt’s next words surprised I’shan.
Of course, they came in the form of an order, which I’shan didn’t mind at all. It always excited him just a bit. But the content was best of all. Riding straps?
Flying?
I’shan had enough bounce for both himself and Ilveriath. He hopped up eagerly on the balls of his feet. How much more exciting than just sitting around! I’shan loved flying. He and Ilveriath flew together all the time. But flying with N’gelt? Amazing!
“Oh, really?!” he asked enthusiastically. He didn’t wait for a response before tearing through his hut to fetch his straps, jacket and goggles. He was in need of a good adventure, especially after everything that had gone on lately. He was back in only a few minutes, a wide grin running across his face.
Il! Listen to how embarassed he is I’shan crooned mentally. N’gelt was so obviously out of his element asking to do such a sentimental thing…it was precious. I’shan eagerly snatched N’gelt’s wrist and hauled him outside before he started strapping Ilveriath up. The dragon groaned lazily and rose to his feet, but he was actually more excited than he let on outwardly. Now this was going to be something worth doing.
A moment later, I’shan sprang onto Ilveriath’s neck. The bluerider cast a fond smile to N’gelt before the pair took off, eager to begin their first flight together with their new favorite companions.
