The Spark of Jealousy - Phillip/Raven
It was a beautiful summer day in Sharance, and Raven took the opportunity to stroll around town. Normally she would head for Privera Forest, or for the desert, but today she was feeling oddly more sociable than usual. She could tolerate the “hellos” and idle conversation that seemed to ensue with every single person she passed. Surprisingly, she was even enjoying it.
Two days prior, Raven had bought a beautiful blue vase from Sakuya, who claimed to have bought it from a far away town. Though she could go fill it with flowers from the forest, or even those that she was growing outside of the blacksmith, she decided to give Micah a visit. He often had such beautiful plants that were far too rare to be found in the wild, and far too difficult for her to grow on her own.
“Hey Micah... !” she called, waving under the Sharance Tree where the man was working. He jogged towards the entrance to meet Raven, giving her a bright and cheery smile.
“Hey Raven, what brings you here?” he asked.
Raven then proceeded to explain what she was looking for, then waited as Micah went to go pick some freshly picked flowers for her. Upon his return, he insisted that Raven take them for free, so they spent a few moments outside bickering about the amount of money that Raven would pay. She did not like handouts, and also the fact that Micah was clearly just teasing her. Despite this, her voice remained light, and she kept a sincere smile on her face.
