leaning against a wall, fingers drumming against his biceps. wonders when @erealiae got ruthless, training with garrick tavis must be paying off - fighting like it was second nature at this point. he misses the innocence, thought he would have to protect her, now it seems more likely that he is the one needing protection. at least if he did not wield the signet he did.     ❝ i just…. i wonder where my little sister went… when you grew up? ❞     no judgment in his voice, simply surprised by the growth spurt she’s been taking lately. or if he’s just been blind altogether.

barely seen @literare since the snow fell, too cold for flying - but he had seen a black gryphon. and while he isn’t sure, he makes the assumption they are as rare as black dragons. knows the poromiel king has one, same for her best friend - but neither were likely to visit aretia. or maybe he is too hopeful. stole a branch of mistletoe, red berries splattered over his fingers. waiting outside of brennan’s office, leaning against the doorway, hand lifts above his head when the doorknob turns catching the two of them below the mistletoe.     ❝ tyrrish tradition says you kiss underneath the mistletoe… praying poromiel tradition is similar, ❞     he winks down at her.
