Title: Upon Reflection Rating: G Word Count: 203 Pairing: Briar/Daja/Sandry/Tris Round/Fight: 2/C Summary: Sandry, Briar and Daja ponder Tris's young man. (Sibling Duty, #2)
Upon reflection, Daja doesn't think he's too bad. He's easy-going enough, unless you challenge his views on weather formations, in which case you can expect a rather powerful and fiery argument to ensue. He seems unfazed when she casually mentions that she could make his sword fly out of his grasp, if she were angry -- if, say, she sees Tris being stubborn and Not Crying.
Upon reflection, Sandry rather likes him. He's actually... 'pretty' might be the right word. Not handsome, or dashing, but... pretty, in an understated way, and perfectly content to spend his afternoon pouring over books with Tris. And he had seems offended when she sweetly informs him that his breeches and shirt are of fine make, but stand no chance against an unhappy thread-mage. (She had firmly shut Tris out of her head at this point.) He blusters; she ends the conversation.
Upon reflection, Briar is pleased he did not follow that man back home after all and warn him, at knife-point, to be nice to Tris.
He knows that this is because Tris's suitor keeps flinching ever-so-slightly when Briar meets the room, as though waiting for another threat to come.
(Sandry giggles, and Briar grins at her.)

if, say, she sees Tris being stubborn and Not Crying.You have them all down so perfectly, their voices and how they deal with things. And dialogue. It's all brilliant. D'awr. And I'm so happy for Tris, too!

I love that Tris has someone, and how all the others are so protective. Briar may be my favorite. A threat that never was threat is the best

Only because the girls threatened before him -- or it wouldn't be nearly half as fun. (Though I'm sure Briar would try it anyway...)
