Rising Worry (Open)

[kandykat]

Ath climbed out of the water and shook herself like a canine, making Estryna laugh. The pale Barred was almost full grown now, and she had become a very beautiful dragon. But then, Estryna was a little bit biased. Now Ath yawned, her eyes whirling a contented blue-green. I am going to take a nap now,[/color] she declared, walking a few dragonlengths away and curling up along the bank.

Estryna smiled and sat down cross-legged in the grass. Picking one of the small flowers that grew there, she began to pluck the petals off, one by one. He loves me, he loves me not... She didn't have anyone in mind as she said the rhyme.

That brought a frown to her face, and she looked up at Ath again. One of the Barreds in their class had already risen and Ath couldn't be far behind. Estryna's gut twisted at that thought. Sighing, she put her head down on her knees. Why did she have to think about that? Way to ruin what had been a good day up until now.

Wulfe saw the barred rider sitting on the banks of the lake. She didn’t look extremely pleased about something....

That makes two of us, Wulfe thought.

“Ello,” he said in his most friendly voice. “Nice dragon you got there.”

Well that was very intellectual. You’re trying to make friends here, you know, people who like you. Starting with, ‘nice dragon’ isn’t going to get you many places.

“Do you mind if I sit down? It’s okay if you do, I know I’m kinda scary.”

Wulfe felt like smacking himself on the forehead.

This is going to go horribly if you keep talking, so it may be a good idea to STOP!

Estryna jumped and glanced up in surprise when she heard a voice. She had been so completely lost in thought that she hadn't seen the young man coming towards her. She blushed a little at being so startled. Looking over the candidate, she saw that he was rough looking, but it didn't bother her too much. His polite words meant more to her than his appearance, although he was much less neat than she would have preferred herself. "Thank you," she said, smiling at him.

He likes me![/color] Ath said cheerfully. She waded up to the edge of the bank and extended her neck, eyes whirling with curiosity. She crooned lightly at the man.

Estryna chuckled when he asked if she minded if he sat down. "I've flown in Threadfall...not many things scare me any more," she said, patting the grass beside her. Right, nothing scared her...well, except for germs, and messiness, and flirting, but that was different!
