take the moment and taste it

She's a mess of gorgeous chaos,

If Nova was sad to hear things hadn't worked out with 'K,' she didn't show it. She bounced along the path and into the dim lighting of the workshop, playing with the syllables of the name. "Zavien... Zavien.... Zavien..." Humming, she thought it sounded somewhat familiar... 

She stopped in the middle of the workspace, pointing a finger at Soh while she announced, "Oh! He said he was going to give me scales!" Her lips puckered into a disappointed pout. "But I haven't seen him since." The dragon scales had been a really pretty golden color. She'd hoped to use them on a project for Caly. Tilting her head, she looked at Soh, curiosity glimmering in her eyes. "Wait, so when did you start dating?" 

But then they were at her workstation, decorated in all its glitter and pink glory, a sign posted in sparkly letters to say 'NOVA ONLY.' She spread her arms, pride puffing in her chest. "Here it is! Isn't it cute?!" There were half finished projects strewn about the counter, sketches with glitter gel pens, fabrics cut into vibrantly odd shapes, trinkets exposing all their mechanical innards, and a strange number of tiny hats.

And you can see it in her eyes.
