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!

He glowed just a bit under her praise, glad she was as pleased with his find as he had been to find it. Smoothing the fabric over her shoulders, he let himself linger for a moment longer than was strictly necessary, enjoying her nearness and only mildly disappointed when she stepped away to pay.
Pressing his own marks into the vendor’s hand for the green robe, Alekse draped his sister’s new robe over one arm, he free his hand tentatively taking hers, and walked along beside her as she guided him toward one of the booths.
His eyebrows shot up and a big, silly smile spread over his face when she said one of the booths belonged to her. Women in Crafts were rare, and, as being around Aederyn had shown him, sadly often dismissed and under appreciated. His eyes danced with anticipation, and he offered her hand an encouraging squeeze when he noticed her blushing. “That’s brilliant! I’d love to see!” The two picked up their pace a bit as she led to her booth, and he let out a low whistle upon seeing her works.
So much beauty in one little space! The afternoon light glinted off of fragile sculptures and several multicolored glass-shard lamps, sending colors dancing and sparkling in all directions. Tiny dragon figures stared at him from the table, looking for all of Pern like they might take flight on their delicate little wings. “You made these.” It was a statement, not a question, because he knew without a doubt that she was more than capable of it. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything quite so beautiful.” He shrugged. “Well…” he leaned into her and nudged her slightly, giving her a pointed once-over. “Truly though, this work is stunning.”
Handsome took that moment to leave his perch overlooking the gather grounds, flitting down to the table and staring suspiciously at one of the clay figures, a confused warble emanating from his throat. Alekse shoo’d him lightly away, offering his arm instead, and the creature took it, creeping up to his shoulder and chirping at Zahrah in question. “What do you think, boy?” The firelizard cocked his head at the woman before offering a light, trilling whistle. “That’s what I thought. Same. Off with you now. Go find find Rudi.” With a wave, he dismissed the creature, and Handsome launched himself skyward before disappearing between. Alekse turned back to Zahrah. “He likes you.”
