Where there's life there's hope.
'Love' was a strong enough word to have Zavien covering his face again, a playful groan preceding his laughter. "Okay okay. I get it. I'll ask her." He says the words playfully, but they hold the weight of expectations and accountability. If he hasn't asked Lena out by the next time the boys meet up, he'll never hear the end of it. Yet it might be just the push he needs to take that leap. He only hopes the fall doesn't hurt too much. Zavien's eyes follow Koa's, spotting the bonding companions, realizing that they've been up to their own devices for far too long. Contrary to expectations, Sol is quite content to receive the grooming, sitting patiently through Pip's mothering. After all his energetic taunting, the little dragon lets his eyes drift closed. He even lets out a little sound reminiscent of a purr, fluttering his wings contentedly.
The Dragoon just shakes an amused head before nodding along with his friend's assessment of their trip. It has given him a lot to think about, and lots of plans to make. "Only time will tell. And who knows, maybe we'll both have girlfriends soon," (sorry Koa) he says it quietly, but a warm smile gives his words an optimistic light as Koa's encouragements take root, setting things in motion.
New quest obtained: Ask Lena out.
