DWC November 2025 - Day 4 - Ribbon - Renrael/Tinnaire/Jaskian/Khaeris
There was a bright red velvet ribbon tied around the red rose bouquet Ren left in the kitchen for Trisandrah. It was early, for both of them, and he’d already gone and come back. He had an early shift at the delivery company, but he’d gone out for fancy coffees and pastries, and saw the flower shop opening. Sometimes, he couldn’t help getting her just one more thing to make her smile. He grinned, feeling a little foolish in his joggers, waiting for her to come out for their run, next to the luxurious flowers and perfect pastry. mentions: @trisandrah

Tinnaire tied up her golden hair, the black satin ribbon bow plucked to perfect poofs. She turned her head in the mirror, admiring the way it fell to frame her thick blonde hair. Tinn smiled at the ponytail, it looked rather elegant for a simple day in her workshop, surrounded by bones and leather and, truth be told, dust. But sometimes, you just had to look pretty for yourself!

Jaskian laced a ribbon of arcane magic around the small gift box, tying the magic to stasis. It was a bit formal, along with the thank you note inside, but her gratitude toward Magistrix Zerine was honest and precious. Best to show the appreciation artfully, after the gala, Jaskian thought. Luminash seemed to be returning to himself after the bittersweet emotions of hearing his mother’s work had colored the last few days. So much loss, but such a joy to feel close to those gone before them, too. Magistrix Zerine certainly needed little, but the brooch inside the box was Jaskian’s own work and depicted Meadowrun Conservatory’s silhouette in cameo. mentions: @keranna-zerine @luminashdawnwing

Khaeris had tied a ribbon around her wrists, tails left to flutter as she moved. That was nice. The charms she’d threaded over the ribbon lifted her spirits everytime she looked at them. She was far from home (perhaps ‘far’ might not be the best descriptor of her Timerunning adventures) so she had wanted her little reminders. Dangling from the unorthodox charm bracelet were a pea pod (Pollux and Pyraelia), her little sunfur panda charm (Sunny), a ballet slipper (Dancing), an alchemy flask (Work), a tiny surfboard (Ahuatli), a stylized firework bloom that twinkled with magic, a firefly enchanted to light up when she willed it, and so on. Things she loved, things that brought her joy even when she could not be near them. It might seem a bizarre collection to anyone else, but that was a good conversation starter, if nothing else. mentions: @polluxhale @pyraelia @darkspear-dancers @daily-writing-challenge
