"If I had shouted at you to look away, you probably would have looked over and demanded to know why I was being so bossy. You probably would have went on to say something about us 'both being guys, no need to be so touchy', right?"
Yulu was basically relaying scenes that had happened to her before, though not here at the Weyr. When she'd first started to develop breasts back at the Hold and the Hall she'd been so standoffish towards those she'd considered friends, enough to actually lose or severely irritate a few of them, but thankfully through the passing of a few Turns she'd lessened in her modesty to the point of not caring. Almost, anyway, as it did appear she had her limits of what she would and would not allow.
She was feeling stupid with her arms like they were now, that some of her common sense had come back, and it was even a but amusing in her mind to watch this older man fidget around her. He looked for a moment like he wanted to touch her, stopping to push his fingers in his hair instead, ending all his actions with a laugh. Interesting.
"Plus, you're a Bronze Rider. I was taught to show respect towards all bronze riders no matter the situation, so it would have been rude of me to yell anything at you even if it was to save myself."
It was simply unacceptable to talk to a Bronze rider like they were any other common place type, even if their dragon wasn't in the high ranks. Respect must still be given, or so she'd been taught many a time and Turns ago.

Ugh, what the hell. the girl had a good point. C'zha grunted in agreement and offered a shrug as his only, immediate response. He couldn't deny that she made sense. While he probably would not have shouted for her not to be so touchy, it was a good defense that he was of high enough rank that being yelled at by a candidate was beyond rude. C'zha was not the type of rider to pull rank, or to mind being shouted at- but how was Yulu supposed to know any of that?
She shouldn't have known, and C'zha felt sorry. "Well, I'm sorry that I helped cause some of this," he grudgingly gave in and apologized. Though, he couldn't bring himself to meet her gaze while apologizing, so he stared at his feet instead. Faranth only knew why Yulu was making him uneasy, but she was succeeding! The bronze rider was sorely tempted to get up and leave the situation. Yulu was awake, alert, and talking.. so she must be good, right? But, on the other hand, C'zha would feel guilty if he left and something happened. Not to mention, Enbrieth would never let him live it down.
So he stayed. Being born and raised in the Weyr meant C'zha had no qualms about seeing anyone naked, man or woman. He certainly did not mind seeing a woman naked! Especially one with as nice of a chest as Yulu seemed to have.. NO. Bad thoughts! Ugghhhh. C'zha was having some serious difficulty, still. He forced his gaze to meet Yulu's and he laughed, sheepishly and nervously.
"I'm sorry that I made you so uncomfortable," he said quietly, his eyes not leaving hers. his tone was soft and genuine, even though he had no way of knowing if it was him, personally, that made her uncomfortable- or was it just the fact anyone could have seen her? Whatever the case, C'zha had been the only pair of human eyes there, so he felt responsible. Sure, he was a bronze rider, but first and foremost C'zha was a person. Rank only went so far.

"It's fine, don't worry about it. I thought by now I wouldn't be nearly as touchy as I still am about things like this, getting seen quasi-naked by others. It looks like I'm still just a brat in those regards, and it makes me rather irritated."
Yulu finally lowered her arms down from across her chest, the blush fading from her face to be replaced by a hue that indicated she did indeed feel a bit better. Her breathing was slowing down too, mostly because of her being calm, the talking she was doing a good asset in pulling air in and out at a decent pace. She didn't fold her hands in her lap as a girl would want to do, instead and moved her arms so that they rested behind her, body propped up yet able to lean backwards. Her chest popped up with the motion as she stretched, something of a small bounce.
If Yulu was doing this on purpose, she probably had a good reason. Most likely she wasn't, she didn't even think twice about what she was doing. Stretching was good, and she need to be as open on the rock as possible to aid with cooling.
"I should be the on apologizing to you instead, for interrupting your bath time with your dragon. I'm pretty sure you guys don't get a lot of spare time to do thing, and the last thing that you wanted was some guy collapsing in the springs and ruining your day."

C'zha's face remained a mixture of confusion and sympathy. he didn't know what else to say to comfort the girl he had just saved. She didn't want to be seen in any sort of prone or naked state, but by remaining in the hot spring to prevent being seen.. she sealed the deal. She had been seen, almost-naked and vulnerable. C'zha didn't quite understand her logic, but had to shrug it off. She was a woman. He would never figure it out.
"If you don't want to be eyed, I suggest you stop doing things like that," C'zha grunted uncomfortably after Yulu leaned back, her chest popping out with a small, but eye-catching bounce. He nearly groaned. He was an adult man, with needs and desires which were very strongly coming to surface thanks to this well-endowed young lady. It took all his strength not to make some sort of vulgar, discolored comment. She would not appreciate it, nor would he appreciate the sound punch to the jaw he suspected she might give.
He was startled, then amused however when she apologized for interrupting his time. ""You're right, we don't get a lot of free time," he began with a small shrug. Today, though, C'zha had all the free time in the world! But, he would refrain from going into details with Yulu. There was no need to tell her about his... mishap with the Wingleader.
"But, I have a weird day today. Plenty of time, so no worries. I have the rest of the afternoon to resume his bath, if I wanted," he assured Yulu with a small and warm smile. "You didn't ruin my day, I promise," he grinned at her openly.

"Doing what? Bathing all together? I could try, but then I'd probably smell like a wherry."
Yulu honestly didn't have any idea of what C'zha was referring to, her mannerisms so ingrained in her head that she didn't even think twice that she may be bouncing or causing grief to someone else. In her mind she was still bound down and just sitting around with someone else and, in her defense, Yulu probably didn't even know how to sit like a proper girl.
She narrowed her eyes and frowned a bit as C'zha groaned next to her, wondering if he was really as okay as he was seeming. He'd been going all kinds of weird motions and making weird sounds, but perhaps it was because he was acting out of concern for her and how she'd gotten trapped in the hot water over a bunch of random things....? Yulu didn't know him well enough to judge.
"Weird day, hmm? I guess you could say I fall into that boat as well, shirking my duties and all. I'm tired of peeling the skins off a vegetable I don't even like eating day in and out, because it's my 'duty'."
At the grin Yulu tried to smile back, though her face moved to something more a smug/tired smirk. Ouch.
