[color=#D1D0CE]Dreamseeker was surprised to see how Eclipse and Skua interacted. The both of them were displaying aggression at first, but even though their tails twitched and their expressions were steely. She could tell both of them cared for one another though, and were only frustrated at each other for trivial reasons. She couldn't help but feel a little flustered when Eclipse's wingtips brushed against hers, bringing her wing closer to her as she tried to calm down the quickening beat of her heart. A hard knot formed in her throat as she became a bit more fidgety, but before she knew it, Eclipse bumped his head against the hybrid's neck. 

Skua let out a puff of frostbreath, his eyes narrowing down at his friend. Dreamseeker didn't have to read his mind once she saw the corners of his lips twitching upwards. [color=7ea7d8][b]"Hmmm, that does sound tempting. Actually ditching this place to see if we could get something done, for once?"[/b][/color] he flared his wings dramatically. [color=7ea7d8][b]"Three moons, I'd do anything to get away from Cerise's bickering. And I'm sure that if I left you to your own devices and you got killed, your parents would mount my head on a pike."[/b][/color]

[color=614051][b]"You're coming, then?"[/b][/color] Dreamseeker asked, even though she already knew the answer. 

Skua's somewhat playful expression fell from his face once he looked back at her. [color=7ea7d8][b]"Obviously. I'm a [i]guard[/i], protecting royal dragons is what I do,"[/b][/color] he stated in a snobby voice that made her claws prickle. 

Dreamseeker turned to Eclipse and gave him a smile. [color=614051][b]"Good!"[/b][/color] she chimed, feeling excited. She hadn't felt this excited in ages. [color=614051][b]"We'll leave as soon as we're all ready."[/b][/color]

[color=7ea7d8][b]"Wait, you're coming too?"[/b][/color]

[color=614051][b]"Of course. Three dragons are better than two,"[/b][/color] Dreamseeker attempted to copy the arrogant tone of voice Skua had used only moments before. [color=614051][b]"Aren't they?"[/b][/color]

Skua's nostrils flared. [color=7ea7d8][b]"I... guess."[/b][/color]

Dreamseeker could tell that he didn't like her. Once again, she dabbled in his mind, picking apart the scattered thoughts until she came across something interesting. [color=7ea7d8][i]It'd be so much better if it was just us two. Last thing I need is for Eclipse to be mooning over this strange NightWing,[/i][/color] Skua's thoughts echoed back at her. [color=7ea7d8][i]I don't trust her.[/i][/color]

Those were the consequences of her race. Even though Pyrrhia was trying its hardest to be accepting of all dragons, certain types just weren't tolerated as much as others. NightWings usually got the short end of the stick when it came to trust, next to SandWings. It must have taken ages for Eclipse's mother to be accepted among SkyWing royalty. [color=614051][i]I'll get him to trust me soon enough,[/i][/color] Dreamseeker told herself, somewhat hurt. [color=614051][i]If I prove myself useful, he'll like me, too.[/i][/color]

[color=614051][b]"W-well..."[/b][/color] Dreamseeker pulled herself from her thoughts as she batted her wings, flustered with herself. [color=614051][b]"I'm ready to leave when you two are."[/b][/color]
