    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    this is going to bring me close to you



    She comes close, and Gale hardly notices. She’s decided to move here. The answer is met with a low and disappointed growl. So she is Hyalinian then, and so protected by the promise that he had made to the Queen.

    The growl grows louder, until Gale suddenly dives down, disappearing into the darkness beneath them. A writhing mass of oily blackness, it is visible in the well lit water for some distance below her, and fades into blackness at a great depth, where it feeds on things far less satisfying than horseflesh.

    Some time later, it rises again and she is still there.

    Perhaps it can charm this brightly winged thing, take its magic the way that he’d taken Aela’s, without much of a mess or fuss.

    “This is all the lightning does, yes.” A brief pause, and a curious tilt of its head. There is no longer any need to play Gale, and yet some bits of his host remain, small peculiarities of movement that linger even when the first consciousness that inhabited this body is long gone.

    “And yours? Does it do anything but flutter inside your chest?”
