Orana nodded "We best let the Dragon sleep then." she replied cheerfully "Alright tomorrow then," she said and looked out the window as well "Well get some sleep I have a feeling something improtant is going to happen tomorrow." she said and turned to leave "Come on sweet Ithean" she called to her firelizard that was in the rafters "See you after breakfast" she turned around to face Remia and smiled, she turned back around and left. The queen flit on her neck and the Bronze flying behind.

Syleti trudged into the Dining Hall, rubbing her eyes sleepily. She blinked groggily in the light and ran a hand through short-cropped brown hair. Her nostrils twitched at the scent of food. "Gah...best thing about mornings is breakfast. Other than that, they can all go between for all I care." She grabbed some food and a cup of klah, and hunched over it at the nearest table.

Remia nodded agreeably, stifling a yawn. She'd stayed up later than she had intended... but it had been worth it. She smiled to herself as she made her way back up to her room, slipping quietly into the dark space.
By the light coming in from the moon, she checked on Trith, who was sleeping like a rock curled up around herself. Satisfied that her dragon was alright, Remia slid into bed and was asleep almost before her head hit the pillow.
(( move to the corridors for the morning RP? She has to get up very early (6am?) to care for Trith before breakfast. Hi Nel! ^_^ ))

Syleti nodded slightly as she munched on something she didn't care on expending the effort to identify just yet, all she really cared was that it was food and wasn't revolting. Her mind wandered a bit to when the next flight would be...she knew the last Hatching had happened recently but the searchrider had seemed confident that there would be yet another queenflight. Shrugging the idea off, she gulped down some of her klah. What would happen would happen...no use worrying about it too awfully much. Now if she were actually standing on the sands, watching the eggs rock back and forth to spill their precious cargo forth, then she might be nervous. But right now, what she wanted was to eat so she could get on with her chores. She had an idea for a carving, but those chores had to be done first. And she had to turn her flit egg, and... "Meh, busy busy, I guess." She shrugged to herself. "Suppose it'll be good for me."

((And now we are in the kitchens! Woot!))
Kallista followed Jessmet into the kitchens; the smells of meatrolls, breads, roasting meat tempted both her stomach and Follar's. The runner wondered how long she had before she had to report back to the stations. It would be nice to make friends.
And what was that smell? Bubbly pies? "It's smells too good..."

Jess inhaled deeply. "If there's one thing to be said about this place, they sure do know how to feed people." She waggled her eyebrows (again looking entirely too much like her brother) and skipped over to where the cooks had some klah, fruit, bread, and cheese laid out for just this kind of mid-morning snack.
"Thank you," she nodded, filling a plate to share with Az. Figuring Kallista would follow, Jessment took a seat at an unoccupied table. Az hopped down from his perch and choke-hold around her neck. Eyes whirling orange, he creeled softly, waiting remarkably patiently for Jess to break up some bread and cheese for him.

Rinfala groaned as she slid into a seat, nursing her headache with a cup of klah. "I despise watchduty..." she grumbled into her drink.

Follar had settled on the table and was walking around inspecting everything and everyone. Luckily, it seemed that flits were indulged here and his behavior was met with more chuckles than scorn.
Kallista grabbed a piece of bread from the tray and bit into it. It was nice and warm, easy to chew. Savoring each bite, Kallista hoped that she did not look foolish in front of the hold girl. "Has your family always been Holdbred? Running has been in my family for generations."
Follar, curious to the person who sat down making noises, went up and chirped cheerly even as she grimaced.

((Ehhh, quick post))
Az was clearly more interested in the food than he was in Rinfala, and nibbled daintily at a small chunk of cheese. Sipping the hot klah slowly, Jessmet nodded.
"My great-grandfather got the land, I think, so we're pretty well established. We raise herdbeasts, and tan hides and such, so I guess it's a combination of Craft and Hold. My eldest brother is heir, the middle one is a tanner, and L'mur is here at the Weyr." She followed Kallista's lead, biting into a hot piece of bread. Fanning her mouth, she continued, "That's why I'm here, on a visit."

((any post is a good post!!))
"So you have had land for a while. That is a good thing, land is precious. How long do you plan on visiting? Maybe I can ask to do more runs to your family's hold."
Kallista got shy for a moment and bit into a redfruit and looked away. It almost shamed her that she had no female friends her age. Most of the other girls were interested in becoming wives and acquiring land or materials. She merely wanted her freedom and her family's approval. "Hey, I have three brothers as well! They treat me like one of them all the time. I was always begging to run."

Jessmet herself had no particular interest in finding a husband, whether or not he could provide her with such material goods or land. "As long as my mother lets me, really. Learning to be a "lady" is awfully boring," she admitted, making a face.
"The hold itself is up north. A trading ship probably brought the message down to your runners' station. I do like getting messages though. Well, I've only ever had a few directly addressed to me, and not to my parents!"
Jess giggled. "My brother L'mur and I were always close; we're barely a Turn apart. I used to dress him up." She snickered at the memory.

"I am sixteen turns and two turns younger than Nejeran. Ceggar is the oldest at twenty-four turns and Kienal is twenty-one turns. My mother...my mother..."
Kallista stumbled as her mind came against a wall. It would go no further when it came to details about her mother...just a stark fear. Follar reacted to her emotion and squawking came back to her side. Chirping frightfully, his eyes whirled a yellow-orange. Petting her blue absent-mindly, Kallista managed to choke out-"I don't-can't talk about her...she's gone."

A worried look crossed Jessmet's usually cheerful and open face. "I.. I'm sorry," she murmered, placing a small hand on Kallista's shoulder. "No need to talk about that now, hm?" She smiled softly, and patted the runner's arm.
Jess bit her lip and decided the best approach was to distract the girl. "I've just Turned 17. L'mur is 18, and Jemmun and Lemis have 20 and 23 Turns, respectively. I never was that close with the older ones; they didn't really have time to play with a little girl." She babbled a bit, as was her habit when uncomfortable or worried.

She continued to pet Follar as her panic attack slowly calmed itself. She turned her head towards Jessmet as she spoke about her elder brothers. Slowly the wall faded and Kallista returned to normal.
"I was close to all my brothers...they let me run with them. My father, Byrad, threatened to turn their hides into skins." SHe grinned at the thought. "Ceggar and Nejeran always looked out for me. Keinal was more hide-bound about watching his little sister. I think he wants more than to be a runner... I wish him all the luck."

"What does he want to do, do you know?" Jess asked, relieved that the runner girl had calmed down some. Surrepticiously she pushed a mug of klah towards Kallista. A hot drink always helped her when she was upset.
((Short.. blehhh sorry for taking so long! gonk ))
