Ulliendis woke to an odd yet vaguely familiar sound. It was out of place for the time and where he currently slept which was why his eyes shot open to glance around the dark room as best as he could. Most in his area of the craft were light sleepers thanks to training and while he appreciated that it might one day save his ass, he also often wanted to sleep without interruption. But eventually he placed the sound as dragons humming for the eggs beginning to hatch. That made little sense to him but how often had he been told over the years that the dragons always knew things? He had to believe they did in this case as well and carefully rolled over to admire his sleeping companion.
Unfortunately that was all he was. Geric was probably his dearest friend and while he was fun to tease, Ulliendis never pushed it too far. For one thing, Geric was skittish and needed to figure things out before moving into friends with benefits. For the much larger thing, Gangleri could be scary as fuck and had warned him about pressuring his brother into things. But pressuring Geric into sharing his super comfortable bed in a platonic manner was totally acceptable. As was the way Geric clung to him because his Ger Bear was also a cuddly bear.
Speaking of that, he had to wake the other man and hoped not constantly being around Geric meant he hadn’t slacked off and forgot things. “Ger Bear,” he spoke the same time his foot nudged his friend’s, still hoping he wasn’t about to get smacked as a reaction. Instead he got a muffled order to go away and Ulliendis patted Geric’s head. “Only will if you come with me. Mostly because I’m currently trapped in your swoon-worthy arms. But as much as I would love to stay here, it’s frowned upon for a Candidate to miss the Hatching.”
It took a little convincing that he wasn’t lying and pointed out the humming and explained what it meant and that at the very least he had to go. Geric was welcome to stay in bed if he wanted to but Ulliendis made some dramatic points about how hurt he would be and how years of a friendship would come down to this very moment. Geric was soon getting dressed and Ulliendis for once didn’t mind tossing on the ugly and uncomfortable robe since he got his way and merrily dragged his friend through the halls. He only let go when they reached the entrance, stating with a grin, “I’m fully convinced now that you won’t run back to bed so you’re free to mingle without me. Try not to have too much fun because I will see it and be devastated. Utterly jealous as I’m trapped down here hoping I don’t get eaten by a dragon. Have fun!” He blew Geric a kiss and headed off to find a spot where he could in fact keep an eye on Geric and the eggs in case a hatchling decided today was a good day to charge at sexy young men.
