Welcome to Gaia! ::

Eorawth was only half paying attention to Lyraeth; he was more intent on his rider's reaction to the news. He wasn't disappointed, suppressing a snort at Z'haq's utter and complete surprise. The conversation between His and Lyraeth's turned to how busy Z'haq was, and the bronze saw his opportunity. Z'haqmine, you could invite Lyraeth's to share your weyr with you. That way you could see your hatchling whenever you wanted. Lyraeth thinks it's a good idea, and believes Hers will agree.

Z'haq listened to his dragon's words echoing in his head. Amid the swirling thoughts of his impending fatherhood and Resa's request to visit the baby when he had the time, Eorawth's suggestion was the only logical thing to do. He squeezed Resa's hand and returned her smile. "I have an idea," he started. "Why don't you move into my weyr? You know, with me? It's plenty big enough for both-- for all three of us, and the ledge is certainly capable of handling both Eorawth and Lyraeth." His smile softened. "And that way I could see our baby whenever I wanted to, and help you raise him. Or her. We don't know yet, do we?" he chuckled.

"Come on, Resa, what do you say? I love you, and I love our baby, and I want us to be together as a family."

She was worried he didn't want her and the baby with him? "Oh, Resa…" Z'haq gently pulled her into his arms, cradling her head against his shoulder, and held her close. "Of course I want you with me. You're the best thing that's happened to me since… since I Impressed Eorawth." Tilting her chin up, he leaned over and kissed her. "I love you," he murmured.

Eorawth, eavesdropping on his rider's conversation and emotions, crooned happily and nuzzled Lyraeth's neck. He listened to me, as I knew he would. I am happy. We will be sharing a ledge, and sharing Minetoo! Are you happy too?
