Prompt: Grateful
Ilona released a breath she didn't know she was holding as she watched the dragons return from the most recent amber run. Her eyes did a brief sweep of the quartet - nothing seemed out of place, everyone looked in one piece. She allowed herself to droop, a grateful smile crossing her features when she realized her skills as a healer wouldn't be needed for now. She quickly turned on her heel and quietly returned to her post within medbay.
Peak glanced about, clearly looking for someone and growing disappointed when he didn't see her. He glanced over at the approaching Nora and mouthed a name, silently asking where the other was.
Nora mouthed the location back, knowing what Peak was asking and why he was asking. One of these days, she'd have to pull the other woman aside and remind her that she really shouldn't leave until after the Dragon Flyz greeted her. Just like Peak was going to have to pull Z'neth aside and talk him into properly greeting Ilona.
Peak cleared his throat. "Why don't you go see if Ilona's in medbay, Z? Let her know we're back," he said.
Z'neth cast his gaze heavenward and muttered a "pushing, pushing" under his breath as he headed off to do just that.
Nora moved over to her boyfriend and leaned against him. "I swear your brother is part turtle," she deadpanned.
Peak nodded. "I was going to say snail, but turtle works just as well," he chuckled.
