[i] “I think you would make an awesome TA; and honestly Jason is looking at taking over the TA position for another class,[/i]

Dactrin's smile widened when Tristan gave him such a nice compliment. "That would awesome. He knows I'm one of the top in the class; I hope he gives me a good recommendation." 

When Tristan invited him to come with her to visit her family for the summer his cheeks grew warm and a soft hue of pink flushed his face. "I uh..." he hesitated, more out of being unsure what to say. "Yeah, that would be, uh...really cool actually." 

[i]“I think you have your dates mixed up there; we don’t start classes for a few more days.”[/i]

Dactrin looked at Tristan in surprise. "Really? I could have sworn..." He looked away frowning, thinking to himself as he mentally ran through his journal in his room, going through the notes he had written. He then glanced at his watch, pressing a button to show the month and date. He looked to Tristan and gave an awkward half-smile. "Oh you're right." He shook his head, running his hand through his hair. "I've been so focused on school starting I got ahead of myself." He frowned, thinking of how he must sound, someone with no life that they're so excited to start studies again. "Anyway" he shook his head, as if trying to shake away the embarrassment. "I wish I could travel forward in time and just be finished with school already, trained and fully knowledgeable. In a perfect world, right?" 

[i] “I am so sorry. I cannot begin to understand what he must be going through; though I can see you care for him deeply, it is nice to see such a close bond.”[/i]

Beau shook his head a bit. "He is strong because of his circumstance. But he needs someone to guide him." he glanced over to Dactrin then back to Sierra. "Thank you. I saw how you take care of Tristan and obviously care very much for her." Beau enjoyed being in company with another daemon that cared for their human as much as he did. 

Dactrin looked to Beau, knowing he had been half listening in to his conversation with Tristan despite spending time with Sierra, and sure enough saw him on all fours ready to go. He smiled when he saw Sierra scratched his head and the reaction Beau was giving.

Beau shook his head and body slightly as Sierra's nails ran through his fur and gentle across his skin, a shudder of delight. He closed his eyes for but a moment, leaning in slightly against Sierra as he did so. He opened his eyes to see Dactrin smirking over at him.

Dactrin looked to Tristan with a smile as they set towards the school to get some food. His eyes wandered across the fields but soon came to a halt when he saw Tychus and Thok, his eyes resting on Thok in particular. He reflexively stopped walking, looking at the daemon with interest and an edge of concern. He was amazed by the look of him, a type of daemon he had never seen before. His height alone drew attention but his skeletal face and adorning horns were where Dactrin's eyes rested. He didn't realize he was staring as he looked to Thok across the way, curious at what he was seeing.
