"You look good."
Morten turned around,
Agnus was standing there all smiles.
The darkness of Dawn in the entry courtyard making him look like a statue."Holy cows, look who's talking!"
Agnus looked big as ever, his hair partly braided back.
His beard shorter. Making him look more angled and streamlined like other plains man did.
He was wearing his waist leathers, large daggers on both side, with riding pants.
An absolute beautiful cloak covered his shoulders though and he was WEARING little unusual jewelry items.
He recognized some, a stone from the frozen, shells and a wolves tooth.Morten realized what had changed then.
"Your nose, its straight!"Agnus laughed,
"yes! One of my students accidentally broke it again. They had to remove some bone as a result, guess that had been holding it back from being straight! "Morten laughed.
He knew he had changed, he had gained muscle and visited his Clan before traveling here. Getting all his tattoos sorted about a month ago.Agnus veered forward and pulled his shirt open to look at his chest, showing fixed up tattoo's, the trial, the cat, the wolf pup. All made to follow the lines of his body.
Morten snorted, "seriously from an other plains man I'd consider that rape!"
Agnus laughed his deep rumble in return.
"Never trust it isn't, even from me." He said, winking with a mock sexy expression."How's the under arms?" Agnus asked.
Morten pulled up his sleeves, "still empty!"
"Hah!" Barked Agnus, "guess Ualan wasn't worth a prime spot?"
Morten shook his head, " he wasn't, besides I lost to him.
Also didn't want to give him that much attention, he was only human after all."Agnus raised an eyebrow at this.
Morten smiled, "I made a deal with Teddy, we're going to try and get a big predatory fish on the five visit to the blue next year."
" Aaah, I will join if I'm allowed. " Said Agnus.
" Allowed? "
He shrugged, " I have a big mouth on me, I have become a liked figure in council. That I'm allowed to keep training the guard is a miracle. "
"Look at you, mister political big shot!"
"Mweh, it's just council being like a bunch of hormonal kids playing weird popularity games. I'm one of the insensitive to it and calling everyone out on their bullshit."
A third voice, laughing good natured.
Kur came walking into the entrance yard,
" he's actually the only proper adult in council that keeps us in line. He's basically a law enforcer in the place that writes laws! "" Kur! " Cheered Morten.
They had themselves a manly embrace, Morten immediately regretting it." You haven't changed a bit! "
Kur smiled that charming warm way that made everyone feel like a 12 year old encountering their first crush.
"Really? I have filled out a bit.." he said,
feeling around his midsection."Hah, well my confused sexual orientation doesn't seem to care." Morten said,
being red in the face.Kur laughed loudly.
"I'm going to have a hard time here, between you and Agnus's mother I might just go through those confused teenage feelings I conveniently skipped earlier in life. " He said.
