Recyclable Romances: Love on Repeat! May 14, 2010

So' recycling is supposed to be a good thing, right' Sure it is! By recycling, one reduces the amount of total waste circulating in the environment. It's a good, good thing for a planet that is already showing some signs of becoming a polluted Class M look-alike, too!

But what about when it comes to people"

Before you freak out, I'm not talking about a soylent green kind of thing. I'm talking about an honest bit of common sense from our very own Tara Ryneiyn that said as much with regard to relationships:

"When in doubt, recycle."

That woman has some real pearls of wisdom sometimes, doesn't she" Once I get a hold of Sin to make him take a book deal, I'm definitely going to approach Tara about an autobiography. That one will make me rich beyond my wildest dreams.

But seriously, folks. Recycling does have its perks. And then again, sometimes it's just better to try things new as they come. Every situation seems a little bit different. So, in some vain effort at getting a better opinion of RhyDin relationships, our reporters went all incognito and did some in-depth research on the dramatic couples" happenings going on in this town. You would not believe what we have found!

Let's start out with some much-needed wash-rinse-repeating. I'm talking about the TrAja, folks. That would be True Onyxfire and Aja Bird. It's no wonder that their names mashed together are a few letters away from the word "tragic." We pegged Mr. Onyxfire as the jealous type way back when those two announced their engagement, didn't we" And now there's been heavy-duty rumors about a possible split between them, all because one of Aja's exes has been skulking around these parts. Honestly, I can't blame her for looking in the other direction towards promises of a better love life. True seems like the alright type to unwind and have fun with, but that one is by no means marriage material. Aja's flighty attention span gets a big thumbs-up from us over at the Gossip Column, and we're eager to find out who else has caught her eye!

Word on the street is that Rix and Sarah are no longer engaged! While this serves as no huge surprise given the suddenness of their engagement, a reliable source says that it was Rix's ex-wife, Red, who brought that particular walk in denial to a staggering halt. Apparently, the instant that broad showed up, Rix dropped Sarah like a bad habit and was immediately all over his ex in the Arena. No word yet on how Sarah is taking it, but that certainly seems like a serious blow to the ego. I've got to give the guy some credit, though. After all, why bother trying something new when you have already established what you like to eat' Wait, wait. That metaphor has too much potential to get dirty. How about this: Why bother moving the car when you already have such an excellent parking spot' Let's be honest - when it comes to things to look at, Red is certainly no eyesore by any means. And the fact that the two already have a history together no doubt adds to the spicy connection between them. This particular rebound has the Post's seal of approval, as these two possess the indubitable likelihood to become a RhyDin supercouple! Keep us in the know, folks!

But wait! Before we leave the dueling venues, look over there! It's Art and Rhaine! If those two aren't the oddest pair we haven't seen in a long time. First you have Rhaine, a relatively impassive person who drinks more coffee than anyone alive; and then there's Art, an energetic life loving D.D. (That's dueling dude. I'm not sure he even owns a car!) who seems utterly smitten with her. What's the deal with that' Did they meet over RhyFriends or something" Whatever the case may be, those two have been very into each other for quite a while, and call me crazy, but I can swear I hear wedding bells somewhere in the distance! Well, I suppose opposites do really attract! Then again? so do burs. And those things are annoyingly prickly.

Apparently it doesn't take long to move on in this town" if things were ever settled in the first place. Sources tell us that third-wheeling detective guy named Jin had been hanging around the beautiful Aoife for quite a while making googly eyes, but little more came of it. You know" for a detective, Jin certainly isn't very perceptive. Word has it, though, that Aoife and Jochin walked into the Inn together recently looking awfully cozy. A good thing, too, because Jin seems a little thickheaded. Polite, but thickheaded. And Jochin seems much more up her alley. We'll see how it pans out!

Jake and Mira still seem to be going strong! Now there is a charming couple that I'd be upset to see break up. The last my sources heard the two were still engaged, but that's not confirmed. However, judging by the way Jake was falling all over himself to wait on Mira hand and foot the other night in the Inn, they're still inseparable! Sources tell me they spent the better part of the evening talking about getting it on - PARDON, going swimming. How cuuuute! They're having dates together and everything! If this thing goes wrong, I will possibly begin to perhaps consider losing my faith in romance. Or I'll just write about it.

RhyDin, RhyDin. Some people need to take a deep breath, step back, and slow the heck down. I'm talking about Vincent Smith, folks. Yeah, yeah. He's been a notorious womanizer for a while, but really, this guy isn't helping his image in the least. Apparently Vinny ran into some cute little thing named Willow at the Inn and he invited her over to crash at his place. Within an HOUR of meeting her! Seriously' He's known her for all of five minutes, and suddenly he's giving her a room' I can't decide who I feel more frightened for - the poor girl who got invited back to his place after four seconds of a heart-to-heart, or the guy who might possibly have his face gnawed off while he sleeps. This fellow needs a little Valium to slow him down" or perhaps something much stronger. Take a breath, man! RhyDin isn't going to run out of women if you decide to take your time!

What is the deal with Roran and Wyheree" We backed this relationship from the start, so we expect to see some results! We didn't' Oh' well I'm backing it now! So I want to see some serious profit. No, I don't know what that means, but I'm sure I'll figure it out soon. In the meantime, no doubt that pair will remain two peas in a pod. Sources tell me that on one of her Fight Night calling adventures, Wyh briefly mentioned visiting Roran's family, and her rather cold reception there. What' Who could possibly not absolutely adore Wyh' Nonsense, people! Utter nonsense! On that note, the ice mage was also reportedly giving Teagan some advice in that situation on taking a trip with a significant other! Oh, man! That's an awfully big step, and we sure hope Teags is ready for it!

Yeah, yeah, so Riley and Daniel have seemed way cute lately - so much so, that Daniel seems just competent enough to pull Riley out of a foul mood (which she got into for who-knows-why. It could just as easily have been his fault.). Apparently, the two were spotted making coffee together and gushing about how adorable they are and sharing pet names in the Inn recently. In all seriousness, they were a heartbeat away from descending into baby talk. Noooot sure how I feel about that, since it seems Daniel is a little bit smart at times. Then again, he certainly seems to care quite a bit about his girl, and he's sure got a silver tongue on him, so maybe he's sharp enough to keep up with the fireball that is Riley O?Rourke. We'll see how it pans out!

That'll do it for us here at the Gossip Column for now, RhyDin! And always remember. Whether it's scandal, salutations, or prophecies of undying affections, we love to hear from you.

Until next time, stay sassy!
