Aza did not consider what she was going to wear at all and is still in her school uniform and now is a little self-conscious about that but she pretends she isn't! "Hi - how are you?"

Permalink

"Good! I, uh, just had history class, the one with lots of discussions... How was your day?" 

Permalink

"It was good, I have drawing class this evening so I've been fitting in sketches between classes, I like that."

Permalink

"Wow! You're doing a drawing class on top of everything else? That's impressive - uh, not that I'm surprised, of course you're up for that, you're smart..." He's blushing again. 

Permalink

"Well, I'm doing a book on gryphons out of Urtho's notes, and it has really good illustrations and I felt like I wanted to be better at drawing, and also my gryphon friend and I recently figured out how to adapt a pen so he can hold it, and he liked the drawings even more than I did, so we're taking the class together."

"You're friends with a gryphon? That's so cool! I, uh, find them kind of scary." Sheepish look. "Uh, I'm sorry, he probably hears that a lot..." 

Permalink

"I met him when I was little - and he was this big," she gestures housecat-sized. "So he doesn't scare me at all but he does have claws and stuff so I get it. I think he likes being intimidating actually."

Permalink

"Awww! I didn't know they were born that little, they grow up so big. What did he look like?" 

Permalink

"He was fuzzy and super cute!"

Permalink

"Fuzzy, really! Aww. And he likes drawing?" 

Permalink

"I don't know if he still will when the novelty wears off, but so far yeah!"

Permalink

"What else does he, um, do? ...Sorry, I - apparently don't know a lot about gryphons." 

Permalink

"He's very good at flying, that's his main hobby, he wins contests - they have contests."

Permalink

"Huh! I see them flying around but I guess I didn't know it was, um, organized that way." 

Permalink

"Well, not all of it is, sometimes they do just fly around. Skan usually flies me home after school."

Permalink

"Whoa! What's that like?" 

Permalink

"It's wonderful, it's exactly as much fun as it looks like."

Permalink

Shann grins. "Your life is really cool, you know. Anyway, how did you even come up with the idea of making a special pen for him..." 

They walk around the garden. Shann keeps up similar chatter, asking her questions and offering cheery but not very contentful responses. 

Permalink

Aza carries on the conversation agreeably but in the end does not especially want to schedule More Of This On A Regular Basis.

Permalink

Shann seems to have a good time, but maybe picks up on Azabel's lack of enthusiasm for More Of This; when he asks if she'd like to do it again next week, he does so tentatively and disclaiming that it's Definitely Fine If She Says No. (And turns red again.)

Permalink

"I don't think so, but thank you."

Permalink

"Oh - I - um - that's fine, I - had a good time and you're really lovely and..." He bobs his head and sort of smiles while also turning crimson, and then escapes. 

Permalink

Poor Shann. She makes a note to self that if she ever wants to ask someone from a class out she'll do it at the end of term so they will not run into each other in class should it fizzle.

Permalink

Skan, who heard a little bit about it from her before, asks her how it went while they're waiting for the drawing teacher to show up. 

Permalink

"It was fine but I didn't want it to keep happening every week indefinitely so I figured I should probably stop it there."
