Kryian sat on the floor of his small little cavern. He was making himself ready for leaving with Mano. Blinking as he recalled the bigger Water male. A light blush decorated his cheeks as he giggled. "That was certainly an experience..."
He slowly combed out his hair as he thought. Glancing down he thought over everything. Touching the glowing cluster around his neck he closed his eyes. Then tucking a lock of hair behind his ear he blinked....earrings. He got an idea. "I can make myself a pair of earrings...ones that..." he inhaled slowly. "Ones that show I'm heading towards change. I'm...stuck right now..."
He stood up. "Time to fix myself up...we're not home anymore and we're certainly..." he trailed off. "Not with Rham anymore..." He took off the glowing crystals he had on. His hands falling to the pendant last he took in a deep breath. Placing all the glowing clusters in a small box he stowed it away before gathering a few things. "Alright you two, I'm off for the town. I'm going to see about crafting a pair of earrings. I know just the jeweler to go to."
Arriving into town Kyrian bounced happily as he leaned around the pole to giggle at his old friend. "Rikko~"
The Shifter who looked up with the jewelers lenses on blinked owlishly. Seeing Kyrian he smiled. "Ahh~ Kiki...what brings you around?"
Kyrian walked in and shuffled shyly. "I wanna make myself earrings."
"Special reason?" The shifter was curious. It had been a few weeks since he saw his friend this happy. Ever since Rham left...he chose no to think further on that.
Kyrian nodded. "Yeah...a friend came back....a Matori...."
"Mano." Rikko knew the story. He started to slowly smile.
Kyrian nodded. "Can you help me?"
The shifter stood and mock-bowed. "You've seen me work...pick out the materials and attempt till your hearts content..."
Kyrian giggled pleased. He picked up clear blue beads that looked like water, gold cord that reminded him of Mano's eyes and pale rosette feathers that he felt were perfect. He sat down picking up the tools....
Then promptly stuck his finger three minutes into his attempt. Whining he sucked on the wound. Rikko blinked giving him room, but hoped his friend wouldn't end up killing himself over this...
