He knew better than to glance at the notice board. He really did. And yet, he just kept doing it and getting himself in trouble.
Today, on the way to deliver a package from Halo to a nice little old lady off the Plaza he had seen a name on it that had rung a recent bell. All through his delivery he had hemmed and hawed and almost talked himself out of it but...
Well...
He'd liked the young Dragoon, and Boreal had been quite taken with little Pip. She'd needed to be dissuaded from trying to adopt the wee noodle and once she sensed his thoughts drifting towards the furry longdragon she'd turned her biggest, most hopeful eyes on him and it had all been over. With a long-suffering sigh he'd thrown his hands in the air and then scratched her horns and led the way to the Nest.
But it was Boreal who shoved past him to galumph up the stairs with all the stealth of an enthusiastic bull, bowling into the room and skidding to a halt just behind Koa with a happy croon of greeting for her young dragon-friend. A few minutes later Tal slouched in behind her and leaned on the wall to help hold it up, reaching up to rub the back of his neck awkwardly as he looked anywhere but at Koa.
"Hey," he offered. "Boreal wanted t'help y'guys out so..." So here he was.
Smooth, Tal. Real smooth.
Tal and Boreal arrive!
