Today is Day Three of waking up to a spectral dog wagging his tail and looking very expectantly at me, so I suppose it might be time to name him.

GILMORE & VEX'AHLIA

This is a terribly belated update, so I hope you can forgive me.

You've probably seen varying assessments of how the speed dating went, but I thought it was quite fine. It was odd at first, but it got easier with each person; whether that was me growing more comfortable or the drinks helping that along, we may never know. But the people that I met were very nice and I'm hopeful for some new friendships, so we'll see. Afterwards there was mingling, which seemed like it would be terrible, but Verin was there, so I just stuck near him. I also saw Pike, so there were plenty of familiar faces. I know the point was meeting new people, but ~~Ver~~ it is what it is.

Anyway, that's all I have to say about it. Nothing exciting or scandalous, I'm afraid, but it was nice getting out of the keep and forcing myself out of my comfort zone. I might just have to do it more often, in fact.

	Any ideas as to what you want to name him? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	ofwovenstone 2020-09-09 06:27 pm UTC (link)
	Too many, in all honesty. I feel like it needs to be something fairly dapper. He may be full of energy and spunk, but he just has a very proper sort of look to him when he's being serious. I can appreciate that dichotomy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	taskhand 2020-09-09 08:20 pm UTC (link)
	So what if you titled him, and paired it with a spunkier name? Like Lord Wigglybutt. Or General Boof. I hear Taskhand is also acceptably distinguished. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ofwovenstone 2020-09-09 08:44 pm UTC (link)
	Taskhand Fluffington? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	taskhand 2020-09-10 02:09 am UTC (link)
	That does sound properly dapper, I think. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ofwovenstone 2020-09-10 02:19 am UTC (link)
	I suppose I ought to get his opinion on the matter, though I feel like he would be receptive to literally anything. VERIN May I ask you something? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I knew you'd be just fine! You are stunning, and charming, so damn smart, and absolutely a catch, so I think they were all lucky to meet you. Was Verin one of your matches? Is there potential for more from these new friendships you made? You say that's all there is, but I need more details. (Reply to this) (Thread)

You are all doing such things to my ego. I'm liable to become insufferable at this rate!

But no, Verin wasn't one of my matches, though I was matched with Allura, so it was nice to have at least one person that I previously knew to kind of take the edge of nerves off. I don't know if more could potentially come of the friendships, but seven minutes really isn't a great amount of time to truly get to know someone, at least not in my eyes.

	Darling, every journey starts with a step and you were brave enough to do that! [...] Plus, how ever fortuitous that Verin was there with you! For both of you, of course! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	FILTER ofwovenstone 2020-09-09 07:10 pm UTC (link)
	It felt nice! Where this journey is headed, I'm not entirely sure. But it's nice to be on one. I thought as much, myself. It has been good to get to know him since he arrived here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	FILTER runechild 2020-09-09 07:24 pm UTC (link)
	You don't have to know. Simply being open to it is good enough. You deserve all the happiness you can get, in whatever form it all ends up taking. Excellent. I'm sure in that circumstance, it would only behoove you to have someone you felt comfortable with be close? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is naming them a requirement? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	ofwovenstone 2020-09-09 07:11 pm UTC (link)
	Most likely not, but I thought if he was going to continue following me about, I should probably address him by something other than hey or vague gestures. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nesta 2020-09-09 07:20 pm UTC (link)
	No, you're likely right. I should, I've just never named a ... pet before. If it's considered a pet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ofwovenstone 2020-09-09 07:29 pm UTC (link)
	Nor have I, really. This is definitely a first. And I hadn't even been considering getting a pet of any sort, so coming up with an idea for one is all the more difficult. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nesta 2020-09-09 07:31 pm UTC (link)
	Exactly. Maybe I'll ask my sister to do it. Gilmore or Cassian would likely come up with something ridiculous. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
