T'thia gave a chuckle at the girl's enthusiasm
"well, i'm just a senior wyreling so i can't decide who stays and who goes, that's up to wyrewomen Rayi. but i'm sure the head women could keep you busy until Rayi can come to her desicion."
she noticed the girl's gaze was on Arizath who gleamed with fresh oil in the sunlight. she grinned as she turned half way to stare proudley at her dragon as well.
"he's only about two turns old. comming up on three at the end of this turn i believe. only known bronze to bond to a female."
she was still filled with pride at the knowledge of being the only female bronze rider on all of pern.
"well, come on. i'll give you a lift to the lower caverns. i have my own deuties to attend to today and can't spend the whole afternoon out on the open road"
she smiled warmley at the girl before heading back towards arizath
"you don't mind carrieing two for a short flight do you love?"
i can do it, you're both small and easy to carry, it'll be fun to see how she takes to flight anyways
T'thia chuckled at her dragon's comment before waiting to help the girl up to Arizath's neck ridges.

Her eyes gleamed and almost bulged out of her head. She would actually get a chance to ride a dragon? Oh her dreams were slowly comeing true at last! She made no time in dilly dally and walked up to the glistening beast. Then she turned and faced T'thia eyes wide with excitement.
"I can't believe this is happening! Your actually going to let me... he's actually going to let me ride him!?" She was bouncing up and down on her toes, grinning widely, hair bounceing over her face as well.
Ath just seemed to slip between and was gone. More likely to see if he could get something to eat. Treyla didn't mind, he'd show up eventually...

T'thia grinned a tthe girl's enthusiasm and gave a reassuring nod. she knelt and offered the girl a leg up.
"just swing your leg over his neck and settle between the ridges"
she glanced at Arizath
"Riz love, croutch just a little more dear"
the great bronze complied and lowered his shoulder and neck a little further so the girl had an easier time mounting

Tikal slowly eased into consciousness as a soft crooning reached her ears. And then the mind shattering head ache manifested itself. Her brown eyes opened...big mistake. She managed to catch a glimpse of Lapis before the light from a nearby glow basket blinded her.
"Shards!" she growled shielding her eyes and blindly reaching for the cover. When the intensity finally diminished she sat up and let her head flop forward. "Lapis...go get me some felis juice will you?" The little blue chirped, a noise which felt like a dagger in her temples, before winking out. In the dimmed light she saw three discarded wineskins. I need to get rid of the evidence...right after my brain stops pounding on my skull... Tikal heard drudges and weylings hurrying about in the corridor. If only for today, she was greatful to be ignored. Lapis appeared clutching a half filled cup of the desired juice.
As she took sips from the cup Lapis burbled and sent her a question feeling. I think a bath before anything else today... she mentally informed him. Where's Glint? Looking. For what? Lira. "That boy is obsessed..."

Treyla was exstatic. She placed her foot on the pro-offered hand and hoisted herself up on the great bronze's neck and between his ridges. She softly stroked along the beasts neck in thanks as she waited for the rider to start them off. She flashed a wide grin and her eyes shown brightly.

Entering the Weyr, Terlan looked about, taking in every detail with wide eyes. This place was huge! How was he supposed to find anything? Finally spotting what he hoped was the Candidate barracks, he started forward.

T'thia agily lept to Arizath's neck, setteling almost immediatley from countless lessons of mounting and remounting her dragon. she looked over her shoulder
"hold on tight"
she gave Arizatha pat on the shoulder
"careful now love, we're riding with no straps remember"
i remember mine, i won't launch so roughly
T'thia grinned. the bronze launched itself with a break neck leap into the air
"I said go easy Riz!"
I am, that wasn't as hard as i usually launch
T'thia sighed in annoyance. Arizath circled once to gain hight before heading off towards the wyre.
"land next to the lake, it'll put us between the candidate barracks and the lower caverns"
yes mine....mine, Dawneth sais this is a good one
"a good one what?"
a good candidate
"is he on search team this round?"
yes. he is a blue
T'thia chuckled as she found her dragon was now descending to the lake side. she was proud as he set down softley, not a single jolt. she glanced around, the wyre was again filling with candidates. she saw one boy heading towards the barracks, and another getting down off of a blue(NPC) obviousley just being braught from search. Arizath politley crouched low. T'thia slid down his shoulder to the ground, and Arizath reached back and offered a for arm to help the girl down as well

She held tight around T'thia's waist. The rush of adrenaline shot right through her as she felt the wind in her hair, the ground growing smaller yet bigger at the same time. The joy she felt was unbelieveablt and her heart was racing.
She hardly noticed when they touched back down inside the Weyr. She was full of energy and couldn't wait till the next time she could fly. She dismounted without T'thia's help and bounced up and down on the ground beside her on her toes.
"That was Amazing! Oh your so lucky to fly with them!" She beamed.

Nikomas Torren Rider-mine, all the weyrlings from our Hatching have to go to the weaving place, thing, so you guys aren't overwhelmed by, umm, emotional stuff, they said...Niko laughs softly. The Loom room? Alright then, I'll tell R'nek. She smiles again. "R'nek, we have to go to the loom room, 'cause Wrath's rising. Something about emotional overwash..." She shrugs uselessly. R'nek smiled brightly. "Yes, so I've heard." He stuck out his arm for her to take, a light sparkle in his eye. "Shall we?" -- [later, in the loom room...] R'nek sighed, eyeing the door. "Think it's safe to go out yet?" Mine, the flight has been over for hours...What? Roth, why didn't you... oh, nevermind.Because, you wanted......Shut it.

T'thia grinned at the girl
"well perhaps you will impress, My good friendT'orn's blue Dawneth thinks you will. and i will be right there in the stands, or perhaps on the sands again"
she chuckled
"it was my duty to escort the wyrelings off the sands at the last hatching, i believe it was at fort. but either way i'll be there"
she sent Arizath back to his sunny ledge
"now, we can either settle you into the wyreling barracks or send you off with the head women, what would you like?"
she smiled brightly at the girl

Glint appeared beside T'thia chirping a greeting at Lira and her brothers. With gentle motions he perched delicately atop the bronze rider's shoulder. At the mention of the barracks he crooned a warning and sent the flits a wary feeling. He studied the new girl upon which the little queen was perched. She smelled of caravans. Glint's eyes whirled green with pleasure. The little bronze liked her...she smelled like home. He cheeped a greeting.

"Well erm..." She was kinda shocked at actually being able to get Searched much less to Impress a dragon. She stuttered a little and stoped bouncing on her toes.
"Well... Just to be certain I think I should see the Headwoman?" She wasn't too sure of herself when she said that. This was quite new to her.

P'las chuckled and, with one last stretch, rolled out of the bed, his feet hitting the floor. Standing, he gave a quick glance about before finding his clothes. "Some food sounds good, my dear lady."
As soon as he was dressed, he strode across the weyr, lightly kissing Ray on her forehead. Smiling, he offered her an arm. "Shall we?"

T'thia chuckled at Glint, Lira crooned at the bronze. Oneth and Huntu however gave the bronze an inquisitive warble wondering why they shouldn't go to the barracks. T;thia shrugged their odd behavior off and grinned softley and reassuringly at the girl
"well perhaps we should get you fed first come on, all of you could use some food yes?"
she looked at the flits inquiringly

"No doubt thats where Ath disappeared to..." Her stomach growled a little too loudly and she blushed from embarassment. She hid her face behind her hands and looked down.
