[SE] if we never made a sound

To kiss in cars and downtown bars
Was all we needed

The first of her friends to appear was Boreal, which probably shouldn't have come as a shock to the Luminary, who had always greeted the dragon with scratches and a treat of jerky or some other such thing from her pocket. This time was no different, and the girl smiled in spite of her nerves, dropping one hand to the dragon's horns to offer the obligatory scritches while fishing for treats with the other hand. And, as per usual, she managed to find something to offer Tal's companion - this time, a bit of dried fish that Tarak had been particularly fond of lately.

Tal wasn't far behind, and no sooner had the fish disappeared from Soh's palm than the courier materialized before her. Things were strange indeed when her oldest friend felt the need to ask if he could hug her, and without directly answering, Soh threw her arms around Tal's neck in greeting, burying her face in his shoulder and bursting into tears. "Oh, Tal," she sobbed, blissfully ignorant, for the moment, of the strange looks that they were receiving from other patrons of the restaurant. "I don't - I can't - I'm so sorry!"

You drew stars around my scars
But now I'm bleedin'
