Silver Creek Sailing high, up above the sky

I just realized Pyx and the pups share a birthday, funny.

She wouldn't deny that hearing that the cold was especially hard this year was a relief. She didn't enjoy a winter with this much bite, as Amekaze said. She nodded, smiling a little. "That makes me feel better at least. I was worried I'd have this to look forward to every winter." She accepted Amekaze's answer easily, glad at least to have given the knowledge. She hadn't expected the woman to want it now, and would have wanted to see the princess before administering it anyway.

He hadn't had a time this good in a long while, and while parts of his mind wanted to whisper discouraging things, he was pushing it away. He was focusing on right here and now, the smile on her face and the laughter. He quirked a brow at her as she thought, as if challenging her again silently. He laughed as she said that she would rethink her dare, and grinned wider.

She asked him to go first and he smirked. "No, no. Ladies first, of course. As always. I am a gentleman above all else."
