Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Ffffft." Euryale made an unflattering noise with her mouth, eyes rolling as she listened to A'star's (as always)good natured responses. He really was almost her polar opposite in so many ways, the soft and cool waters to her raging fires. "We both know that Theath won't rise so long as Miryath doesn't, so perhaps you can prod your girl into getting proddy and save us all the headache. She can rise and Theath will follow and you and I can get some relief." Her foot playfully tapped against A'star's thigh, almost pushing him against the walls of the tub in the same manner a child would push their friend to a wall in teasing. "Admit that I'm speaking the truth."

Despite her laughter she could feel a stirring in her mind, one coated with a soft sadness and self-disappointment. It seemed her little commentary had not been missed by her dragon (like it would ever), and Euryale closer her eyes as Theath spoke. . . . . . . are you that unhappy I have not chosen to rise?

Oops.

I will not rise until Miryath does, as you have said and as you know. It has always been that way and always shall be that way - I fly with her at my side or not at all. That...was a true statement and Euryale felt a little bad. Of course she knew that her dragon would never rise along, it would be ridiculous to think she couldn't understand just how Theath felt about Miryath, but then again she also thought it was ridiculous her dragon couldn't take a joke. It was not funny.

Today really was an awful day, screw everything except her husband in the tub with her.

"I just want today to hurry up and end, or maybe this sevenday or the month or the Turn I am just so done with things for now." Even A'star calming compliments about how the others couldn't complain about her and him and their family were dismissed in favor of FOREVER SULKING. Had she been this bad back in their youth, or in their early days of Weyrlinghood? "I can't remember ever feeling this frustrated."

No small amount of time had passed before Euryale removed herself from the tub, and her husband, walking into her room to get dressed. Whatever sourness she'd had for the entire day was going down the drain along with the bathwater, and the previously unhappy woman was practically glowing like a green about to rise. It was almost laughable how easily A'star was able to influence her mood but then again, he'd been able to do that since they were tiny children. Granted those times usually ended with a fist fight that she won, though now their little quibbles ended far more....pleasurably.

A quick check with Theath assured her that the baby was still sleeping, or at least if Nugget had woken up there wasn't much fussing happening. The green and her twin had become quite the dependable pair of babysitters over the turns, and Euryale almost felt bad for here remarks earlier about them rising just to get it out of their system. Almost. Was A'star still willing to let her go on a flight later? It would be the perfect end to the afternoon if she and Theath could get up into the sky, but just how far was her hubby willing to go? Repeat's luck had been absolutely terrible lately, and even with Bump holding down the fort as a backup she wasn't too sure he'd have a strong handle on them all.

"A'star? How much longer are you going to stay in there? Come out here and keep your promise to me."
