Title: Trust Rating: G Prompt: Healed by wind and sun Summary: Lark knows her friends, and they her.
“Lark!”
Her name echoed through the forge, torn up and scorched by funnelled air, but intact enough to come back to her and make her smile. Frostpine grinned at her, face gleaming with sweat, teeth bright. “You are a happy present for any morning, like your namesake.”
Lark laughed. “I can’t even sing for Mila. Your name has never made sense to me.”
“Poetry, of course!” The bellows eased, turning the workshop into a dim and quiet trap for summer heat, and the tall Fire Dedicate stretched his back, Lark wincing at the pops and cracks. He took both her hands in his, only a little warmer than blood, but streaked with white ash. “Thank you,” he said.
The Earth Dedicate smiled, shaking her head. “I shall listen to you, and read any letters you send to that far-away sister,” she said. “As long as you promise to send them.”

This is lovely, Kit! You certainly have a way with words. I can't understand the context as I'm unfamiliar with the Emelan universe, but I felt that these prompts had a Larkish feel from the start, and so I'm very pleased you're doing it! Eager to read the rest as they come!

I adore Lark, so I'm so happy somebody is writing their August prompts about her

Lark *and* Frostpine? Oh, of course they'd be friends! I'm flailing over this one.

The idea of Lark being unable to sing is *perfect*.

This is so pretty, and like Lisa, I love that Lark can't sing. Her relationship with Frostpine is so sweet!
