Cinnamon

Spirit of Desire

The Shamed Son

Come Along



He just plopped into the Province one day, uninvited and unannounced, and demanded to stay there despite there being no vacancy. Having nowhere else to go and proving to have immense stubbornness, Cinnamon was finally shoved into another drake's house in a last effort to appease him, where he quickly proved to be the most frustrating roommate Glaerime had ever met. She never asked for him. No one had.

Although he hated to admit it, Cinnamon was quite possibly the most clingy individual on the face of the planet. So when he started bunking with Glaerime, she quickly became the prime object of his fascinations. He observed almost everything she did, puzzling over her habits and discovering exactly how her schedule worked. He watched how she interacted with others as well, and steadily, though he didn't realize originally, Cinnamon began to develop feelings for her. When she went missing, he was the first to realize. He became incredibly frantic, suddenly feeling empty without her nearby and regretting his former attitude of being so annoying.


I could have given her the world, Cinnamon thought, distressed, but now I never will. He stumbled slightly, starting to feel dizzy. She's gone. Gone, gone... He slapped himself, trying to focus. She wouldn't be gone forever. He'd find her. He'd save her life (if it was even in danger) and give her anything she wanted. He'd apologize. He'd tell her how he felt. And, if all else failed, he'd brace himself for a broken heart.

He should make a dramatic entrance to impress her. He should open up a ridiculously bright prismatic portal and come out of it yelling at the top of his lungs, "You're safe now, Glaer--!"

Cinnamon slapped himself. What in the world was he thinking? That was a terrible idea. Glaerime's safety should be his first concern; not showmanship.





He doesn't like his siblings too much originally:

That fact will change.



Cinnamon gives you one of those incredibly smug smiles like something your little brother might have done once, making you instinctively want to punch his face in. It may have been an unintentional face expression, but you immediately start to loathe him.
