First Flight

Fictober19:  Day 1 Prompt:  “It will be fun, trust me.” Fandom:  Enderal Warnings:  Language

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

He didn't like being outside -- too... exposed.  And these eyes were still too sensitized to the dark; they burned and watered in the daylight.  The fingers dug harshly into the fur as he sat astride the great beast; soft... annoying.  Every muscle, from above the squinted eyes down to the toes, was tensed beyond his ability to release.

"It will be fun," she had said, "trust me."  She was a fucking idiot.  He was a fucking idiot for agreeing to partake in such madness, but they had a job to do and this was the fastest way to get from point A to point B.

 With each beat of its wings, the beast's body undulated sickeningly.  If he vomited, she would wear it; he'd make sure of that.

 "Wooo-hooooo!" she screamed into the wind.  Her muscles were relaxed, with her arms extended euphorically into the air.  She wasn't even holding on!  What in hells was wrong with her?!

 When they finally landed... more gently than he'd expected... he pried the stiff fingers from the soft fur -- still annoying -- and climbed off the great beast.

 "Wasn't that amazing?!" she exclaimed.  She was flushed with exhilaration.  He was certain he was paler than usual.

 Still, her exuberance had a way of affecting him.  Maybe, he considered, while trying to maintain a scowl at her, if the next flight was at night...

For all the Corvid enthusiasts out there, an endearing "fuck you" from a friend.

Hand-fasting sash I made for my son's and daughter-in-law's wedding. It's the first time I've done embroidery and I'm quite happy with it ( they are, too!)

- Green, white, and silver were their chosen wedding colors.

- Blue and red are the colors representing the words each/both choose for what marriage means to them (mostly based on Druidic and Wicca traditions).

- Circles throughout symbolizing the Summer Solstice, their wedding date.

- On the white side, the flowers around their names and wedding date are traditional Bohemian designs in honor of Tya's heritage.

- The style on the green side is generally Celtic (a good portion of Nathan's heritage and a style that resonates with both of them - the music list was amazing!).

- Tree of Life and endless knots represent the intertwining of their lives and growth / nurturing / life (Celtic and Norse traditions, although I couldn't fit all 9 roots of Yggdrasil).

- On either end are the masculine (sun) and feminine (moon) with one "protecting" the other, allowing the other the freedom from a safe place to explore, create, and become their best selves.
