hi hi! have ⏳ ⏳ for ruby and ⏳ for riag, maybe? :D @kerra-and-company
Ty for the ask :D! It's appreciated been busy and stressed lately so ty for the distraction!
Ruby Aenn:
"So I tried to learn nature magic and druidry for a while. It seemed really helpful and more in line with my Wyld Hunt! But it turns out it's not really for me. I don't have the patience to study and 'attune' to glyphs. I don't sit still well - I have to be doing something. So nope! Druid is right out for me!"
"I still visit Tarir! Not as often as I'd like with trying to keep Tyria from crumbling like a muffin with too much flour. I go and tell the Exalted about Aurene and how much she's done. They're always happy to hear about her. At least I think they are happy. Not much in the way of expression, those guys."
Riaghael:
"Well, if she (Ruby) is outing some things, I suppose it's only fair. You may have heard from someone, " (looks pointedly to the short, red ranger), "that I am bad at directions. What you may not have heard was that I got lost on the way to Concordia, back before we - before they built Trinity. And that they had to send a few people to come look for me because they thought I'd been attacked.
Showing up late to an important meeting, when the Pact was still in it's infancy, when the one person you truly admire and have a massive crush on has been worried sick that you got attacked - and then having to admit 'no, I took a wrong turn' was not the easiest thing in the world."
