Welcome to Gaia! ::

F'ren smiled knowingly "heh, you had better hope she keeps this temperment, Zevra was all sweet as a hatchling too" he said a little grimly.

His smile grew broader as she giggled at his wherry comment "a bit, is an understatement" he said, recalling the, surely, hundreds of times he'd had to find something the silver had hidden for the 'fun' of it.

"i can't wait to be up there on Toulonth, she is excited too, i just hope i can remember things when i need to" he said, a frown tugging at his features. "Mine, everything will be alright, i will help you to remember, you just need to stay calm if you do forget" she sounded sure, confident in her belief.

F'ren was surprised at her comment, "i'd say V'al just has to get used to flits, there are enough around the Weyr" he said "though i'm sure she'll stay sweet, the greens often do" he said, not sure if it was true but hoping for her sake, since she'd seemed worried when she'd looked to him. "if the little one misbehaves, Optheli could just ask Dynith to speak to her, it sometimes works with the silver one when he is bad" F'ren relayed his dragon's comment to Optheli. He had to stifle a chuckle though "yes you could say that life isn't dull with Zevra around.

He thought about the training they'd been getting "heh, maybe you're right, but i suppose it's the best way to learn" he offered up.

F'ren thought a moment "maybe you could teach V'al thay flits CAN be more than pests?" he offered up. "i mean, there can't be many worse than Zevra" he chuckled again, leaning forwards a little as he noted the sleepy green "i would suggest making yourself comfy before she falls alsleep fully, or you're going to end up with a numb arm"

"yeah, but when Thread falls i'm sure that the heavy training will prove to be more helpful than annoying" he said "after all, even though they were bred to fight Thread, we still need to teach them how to do it."

He got up, "wait there, i'll get you some Klah and maybe some sweetrolls?" he said gently, "that flit is likely going to keep you up as much as Dynith likely did throughout her first few nights."

F'ren shrugged "i dont know V'al very well, but he's going to have to learn very fast to get along with flits" he said, yeah he thought they were pests but they weren't all that bad, even Zevra had his better moments when he was actually affectionate, usually when his stomach was full and he wanted to snuggle at night.

F'ren thought for a moment, "well, even if it doesn't, we have to train to, there's always games and mock thread to chase, i'm not sure if it will Fall in our time, but we must be ready in case it does" he said, unnaturally serious for the moment. "Don't be afraid Optheli, even if we're scored our dragons will take us between so it will freeze off before we're injured too much" he said grinning his assurance of Dragon abilities.

He nodded and went to fetch Klah, he didn't find any sweetrolls, but he did find some cold met cuts, grabbing some bread he took them out to Optheli. Once back to where Optheli was, with a now decidedly sleepy looking Ismay he poured her a cup of Klah. "there, and i suggest getting a leather brace or something of the sort made if she's going to travel around with you, flit claws are sharp, and can ruin your clothes if they're not leather" he smiled.

F'ren shrugged slightly "you're right, maybe he just hasn't met the right flit" he said smiling gently, "i'm sure he'll get used to Ismay in time Optheli, don't worry" he laid a gentle hand on her shoulder to reassure her.

"Exactly! if we slack off then what are we teaching the next lot" he affirmed. Taking note of her wide eyes at his mention of scoring. "not that our clever greens would let us get scored" he blushed, after being scolded mentally by Toulonth.

Mine you should be making friends, not scaring them she rumbled, to F'ren, Mine will not get scored either! she'd reassured the other green

He smiled again though as she started to eat, "i'm sure some of the leatherworkers can make you one for a few marks" he nodded, he sat on a chair near to the other greenrider ""no problem Optheli, it was my pleasure" he cooed a little, he didn't find her the most attractive he'd seen around the Weyr but she was really nice to talk to, and sometimes, that mattered more than personal preferences.

F'ren smiled at Optheli, she seemed to be calmer about the flit and her bunkmate now, at least, her face had lost that concerned look whenever she looked down at the sleeping fire lizard. He grabbed some food himself "Hey! don't eat it all" he laughed.

"I've been practicing mostly, going over the same patterns over and over, trying to remember them" he replied. "It's hard to fly when you're looking a drawings of the patterns" he admitted, he wished his memory would improve, even with Toulonth helping him remember it was sometimes difficult to get the patterns right, and if he couldn't remember them perfectly, he didn't think he'd be any good flying in a wing. His face only showed this concern lightly.

"we will be the best greens" affirmed Toulonth, with a mental smile and a pleased rumble that echoed a little. "F'renmine, don't worry so much, we will remember...together and we will fly and fight!" she said gently to him, to reassure him.

F'ren gave a fake glare at Optheli as she ate the last of the sandwich, "mean" he said smiling at her, his own eyes full of mischief.

F'ren laughed "That's the problem, i spend more time trying to keep the page from flying away than i do memorising it" he said with a shrug. "in bits? hmm" he mused for a minute "If i manage to remember the first part you might have a smart plan there Optheli" he said, eyes shining. He leaned over and gave her a big hug, glad to have possibly found a better way to remember.

"if it helps us and Ours to remember it is worth trying, that's a good idea Dynith"
