Vanya watches the Plenyts go to their respective Bonded, and feels her heart sink down to the area of her toes. She hadn't been good enough for any of them... She hadn't been worthy... And once again, her twin has gotten all of the honors... As she always did... She stumbles back a little ways, trying her absolute best not to cry... But it is hard... She gives Chysta a shaky smiles, and gestures for her to go with her new Bonded.

“Go on, Chysta! I don’t mind! I mean, you’ve got this great honor, so you should enjoy it! I’ll just go… Go check on the pets…”

She does her best to keep Chysta from noticing, and then turns, jogging cheerfully away. But as soon as she rounds the bend, she slows, and then stops, leaning against one of the trees, and wraps her arms around herself. A gentle chirring from overhead attracts her attention to her Jrehke, Kesa. She extends her hand, and the Jrehke lands gently, and then chirps softly, nuzzling her chin. Vanya draws her in closer, and buries her head in the feathers, and starts to sob quietly, her shoulders shaking violently. As she cries, Kesa nuzzles her, trying to get her mistress to calm down a bit.

“W-why d-does sh-she alw-ways g-get th-the hon-n-nors-s?? It’s-s n-not f-fair-r… ‘s not! ‘s jus-s’ not f-fair…”


Chysta takes a hesitant step after her twin, but then Cyferbyn demands her attention but butting his head against her.

So… Are we going to eat first? Please? I am very hungry… He gives her a pleading look, and then a grin follows as his stomach rumbles loudly. She gives a mock-sighs, and nods, the two of them moving off together. As they walk, she runs one hand along his fur, her blue eyes soft with love. They walk together, and Chysta glances back where Vanya had gone. Then she looks at Cy.

~Cy? Why did you choose me? Why not Vanya? She’s the one that really wanted to be Bonded… I was really only along to give her some company… To tell you the truth, I’m not sure that I’m ready to do this sort of thing… I just want to be a scholar…~

Cy looks up at his Bonded, and nuzzles her gently, and then looks back along the path.

I didn’t choose her because she is not right for me. You are.
