Welcome to Gaia! ::

Awena wasn't the only one watching. A ways off amber eyes lay trained on the startled looking girl sizing her up. She was a frightened looking thing, how was she expected to survive in the Weyr if she was afraid of every little tiny thing? Or perhaps Hekate was merely reading too much into the girl's actions as the bright red haired girl rose to her own feet striding with confidence over to Awena and staring down at her.

"You're one of the other candidates correct?" She asked with a silky smile.

A bright green blur raced over the heads of those walking through the courtyard. The creature’s fast movements and sudden turns weren't enough to cause much attention, it was a Weyr the creature was hardly a novel thing to be seen and so by most was ignored or dismissed after a glance. This suited the blur just fine, it was not interested in them it was looking and they were only obstacles currently. The blur halt in mid-air, snapping wings open and flicking backwards with a speed that was enough to convince viewers they had heard bones snap. The green arrow plummeted downwards at a worrying rate, it needed to pull out of its death plummet, it would surely collide with to ground in seconds.

The was a slight flick of movement and then the creature was soaring upwards again, a small cloud of dust and a miniscule groove the only signs of any disturbance. The blur ceased it's darting and instead moved directly to a tree, jumping through the branches to rest on one at the bottom; finally holding still enough for a clear sight to be had. The green firelizard even when stationary was constantly in motion; her wings flicked, her tail swung back and forth as it hung over a branch and her head was constantly turning this way and that as she examined her prize clutched in her claws.

The medium-sized, near fluorescent green, by the name of Playmate, turned a small object over in her claws with as much dexterity as one could expect from a firelizard. The prize her death drop had been for was simply a smooth and somewhat shiny pebble. One the green was now thoroughly inspecting, she turned it over, looked at it from first one angle and then another. Finally she gave a tiny snort of dissatisfaction and simply let go of the pebble. Unthinking for the welfare of the two unprotected heads beneath the branch that the pebble was no heading for.

Playmate had just begun to preen herself when she was interrupted. She was far too irritated by the pebble and it not living up to expectation to go flying about again, she had been perfectly content to stay right there and check she was her usual pretty self. It seemed though others were less content to let her be. Hearing a shout the green raised her head a looked about a few times before looking down over the side of the branch at the two people below her.

The firelizard chirruped her confusion quietly to herself, what were they making a fuss about? Playmate was only a green and as such not the most intelligent creature around; she could be cunning at times and seemed very good at finding things, but only when she wanted too. The rider to whom she was bonded had come to the conclusion without the bond with the firelizard he would never be able to get her to do anything; she only did what he wanted some of the time anyway.

Deciding that whatever they had found so interesting was worth the interruption to her preening for just a while Playmate picked herself up and scurried down the side of the tree. Small claws gripping the bark and stopping her from falling rather unceremoniously to the ground. She stopped partway down the tree's trunk and lifted her head to peer at the two-legged things before here, eyes whirling quickly as she tilted her head from side to side to examine them. Even from this level she couldn't tell what had caused an outburst like that.
