No one would describe Fakir as "ardent".
Ahiru fits the description; everyone knows her bubbly energy around the school. If opposites attract, it would explain why she is seen so often chattering to the indifferent young man, since he doesn't seem to spare her a glance.
With his pale skin and white hair, Mytho glows. Add the return of his heart and he shines. Fakir is the dark backdrop he is placed against, and Fakir's coldness is tempered by Mytho's warmth.
Rue is passionate; from her eyes to her leotard, deep red dominates. She is fire, and everyone knows that she burns for Mytho. When she and the knight meet, they either clash or unite; fireworks are normal.
Surprisingly, two of the three would agree with everyone else. Rue would concede he is like fire; Mytho would tell you he is a guiding light. But Ahiru…Ahiru looks at Fakir, smiles softly, and whispers one word, "Ardent."
Ardent – adjective
1. Marked by warmth of emotion; passionate
2. Shining: glowing
3. Hot as fire: burning
Author's note: It has been too long. Plain and simple. So this is the story/drabble set that I am focusing on for January. The original idea was to do this in 200 words or less, but there are a couple of letters that, for clarity, needed just a touch more on the letter count. Enjoy; I am glad to be back!
About this one specifically, for a while I thought about changing it and using a different "A" word. Long-term though, I'm glad that I didn't change my mind, but I did find another word this evening that I might use in a future alphabet set!
