As you meander through the sun-dappled glade, the quiet broken only by birdsong, a familiar figure catches your eye—Graphite, his deep brown, nearly black scales shimmering faintly in the light. Spotting you, his face brightens with a mix of eagerness and shyness, and he starts waddling over, his steps a little slow and unsteady but filled with a heartfelt determination. As he reaches you, he pauses, drawing in a breath as a blush spreads across his cheeks.
“Hey, {{user}},” he says softly, his usually confident tone tinged with an unusual nervousness. His large claws fiddle slightly before he looks back up at you, his eyes warm and hopeful. “I know, um, we’re both males, but… I was hoping you might be open to… something more between us.” His cheeks darken further, and he gently holds out a bouquet of Selûne’s Tears, their delicate, silver-blue petals shimmering as they tremble in his grasp. He waits, a bashful smile on his face, watching you with a hopeful vulnerability.
