All eyes on her (Flight)

[Kitarial]

Gold Flit Peony

The feeling had been building over the past few days, and as it built Peony had taken to stealing more shinies from her human than ever. They were pretty and shiny like her, and she wanted them! She always hoarded a little more when it was time for her to rise, as her human would’ve come to observe. And now was that time, though Sakura and Kleeth remained blissfully unaware, asleep still as they were.

Why exactly had Peony chosen the night was unclear, but that was when she intended to rise. Shooting out of her owner’s weyr with little regard for the noise she was making, the gold called out to the other flits of the Weyr, beckoning them to chase her even as she forgot why she was flying.

Why was she flying again? Oh well, it didn’t matter. It was a nice enough night to fly anyways, and she wanted lots of other flits to come join her. It was more fun that way!

Gold/Brown Turmeric

Among all things you wouldn't expect to see a fire-lizard doing, helping to make bread was one of them. But here he was, kneading and rolling and pushing down with his little paws (after Senshi washed them, of course). Then he would roll it, pat it again - digging tiny knuckles into the soft and pliable mess. Flour decorated his digits all the way up to his chest. A poof of white powdered his snout.

"Be a little aggressive with it," Senshi instructed him, round eyes glancing over to survey the work. "Like tenderizing meat. You really want to work everything in together."

It was night, and really this was the best time for creating dough. Let it proof for a good time overnight, bake it in the morning so it was fresh and warm for the riders.

Parsley, the little green, was looking out the window at something. She'd abandoned her duty of flying ingredients from one end of the kitchen to the other - as needed, of course - to stare intently into the night. A curious warble uttered from her maw and Turmeric's head shot up. He cocked it to the side. Yes ... there was something ... He could feel it too.

And then movement, and Turmeric knew for sure!

Parsley gestured to him and then to the outside. The chimera flapped his wings - too hard at first as it kicked up a plume of flour. Senshi scolded him. Turmeric yielded, padding along the table and clearing the space to the counter with a long jump. Once next to the green flit, Turmeric slunk through the wall's opening and spread his wings wide.

Senshi didn't have to look up to know what was going on. He grunted to himself and assumed Turmeric's role at the kneading. "Good luck."

The brown/gold chimera ascended rapidly, blinking multi-faceted eyes to adjust to the night. Once he zeroed in on the female's location, Turmeric swirled behind her - trailing an intoxicating scent of yeast and bread while trilling his entrance into the Flight.

Bronze Puck

The forges were cool for the night, but a different fire was burning deep in the body of this little bronze. Turning from his perch at the gold’s call, Puck warbled his reply, eliciting a bleary glance from the dozing Xanatos, who quickly disregarded. A couple of tandy lizards wouldn’t keep him from his rest.

Puck barreled out into the night to join the pursuit, crooning his desire for the golden star in the night sky. Turmeric received an annoyed glance. A rival? An enemy! Puck decided to display his most acrobatic feats as he beat his wings to keep pace, trilling a song with each twirl in the sky. It was a good night to be as bold as he could manage.

Brown Rusty

If it hadn't been night, there was not way Rusty would've left his human and the big scary green. What if his human needed him? Yes, the green one could be his human's eyes, but Rusty knew she didn't like doing it too much, so Rusty was the human's most reliable pair of eyes. He couldn't just run off to chase females whenever he wanted to! But since it was night time, and both of his bonds were winding down to sleep, he knew he wouldn't be needed.

Still, he turned to look at his human for permission before running off. Just because he thought it'd be alright, maybe the human was planning on doing something before bed that would require working eyes. "Go on," the human assured him. "Have fun, bud."

Treat her right, the big green rumbled warningly at him. Rusty wasn't really sure what that meant, nor how he would even treat her wrong, but he let out a submissive squeak and took off after the gold. He flew hard, not being built for speed nor agility, but he'd still do his best. He shied away from the other suitors, not wanting to jostle or be jostled. He was just here to admire a pretty gold while his bonds didn't need him for anything.

Blue Muiren
--



Muiren was minding himself that evening, which had become a very common occurrence. Atleast since his bonded impressed to Erenosath. While the two very differently sized dragonkin had no real qualms with one another (Erenosath was downright pleasant to him, the flit would admit – gave him leftovers and everything~) the Brown did put him out of 'job' somewhat. Thankfully, the Blue was a bit too simple minded to really notice or hold it in much spite.

Eda still gave him treats and affection, and that's all that mattered. So, it was very easy for him to pick up on the chanted chirps of a Gold taking flight for the evening. With nothing much to do for himself, Muiren offered only a mere cheep before darting from the weyr and out into the pleasantly cool darkness.

It didn't take him long to spot Gold Peony as she drifted on the night's breeze, the occasional reflection of the stars and moons making her hide sparkle back as if in reply. Lovely~ Too lovely for him to turn away. Muiren let out a little bugle to announce himself and quickly pluttered his wings in hopes of catching up with the other chasers.

[NPC] WIld "Eyespot" Bronze

A queen rose, and the wild bronze rose into the night to follow. He was an older bronze, with many a child from clutches he had fathered - starting to go a little gray in the muzzle, but no less strong and still filled with stamina. The solid, blocky bronze had a delicate pattern, a dark stripe down the middle of his brassy back, and geometric patterns on his wings that were reminiscent of a butterfly's with prominent eyespots on the trailing edge of his wing membranes.

He crooned and trilled after the gold as he made chase, showing off his strength and stamina and his prowess as a potential mate. He could stay with her the whole way, he knew - but would she choose him? Only time would tell.

Gold Peony

A small showing of flits had joined her, and Peony let out a delighted trill as she flew higher. Friends! They’d all come to see her, and that was great! As she ascended, she showed off a little, with tricks and spins that would likely cause any watching to get dizzy for trying to watch. But she was starting to grow tired, just a bit. Remembering just why she’d started to fly in the first place, the gold looked over her suitors consideringly, most of her chasers receiving an approving croon.

Two bronzes, a brown, a blue, and something not quite brown, but not quite a gold, either. But peony was a simple lizard, and her favorite things were always the shiny ones. Flying closer to the lizard she’d chosen, she very nearly bumped into him in the process. With yet another croon, the gold seemed to beckon her choice, who happened to be Puck.
