Presents and turn's end. Not the most favorite of times for Raigan but he endured. Since the death of his favorite son, the lord had found the time tedious and not at all fun. But his wife's puckered face and the whines of his other children had sent the lord fleeing. His own hold's market had not been what he'd wanted, all of the items were boring and old so he'd hitched a ride to Fort with a dragonrider. Not the bronze that it should have been, but brown was good enough he supposed. His boredom was only exasperated when he actually made it to Fort. Perhaps he should have gone to Telgar instead.
He wandered, lost in thought when a face he thought looked familiar caught his eye and he stalked towards it. Back to him, Raigan wasn't sure if he was correct in his assumption and to cover any faux pas, reached for the same piece of jewelry the other man did. Hands collided and his hunt was proved fruitful when a delightfully familiar face turned towards him. He reached for the piece, a slow smile curving his harsh mouth and he picked up the jewelry. "Well bless the stars," he drawled, "R'dal! It's been a hot minute since the last time I saw you." And it had been a very diverting time. Interesting and informative. On the part of Raigan for sure. Before then, the lord would never have admitted to himself that attraction to men was even possible.
But what wasn't attractive about R'dal? Adorable in his innocence, dark eyes that were open and happy. There was much about the young bluerider that was simply delicious. Poor foolishly trusting boy. "How have you been," he asked as he stood straighter, item loosely clutched in a strong hand. "I've missed you all the times I've gone to Fort Weyr." He smiled brightly. "Were you hiding from me, R'dal?" he chastised playfully. He hadn't had the chance for conquest at the gather and now that he had the bluerider in his sights again, he couldn't say he wouldn't attempt to seal that deal again.
