Samodith's moodiness over the past several days had been nothing especially noticable: ever fickle in her affections, it was quite common for the young green to turn from cuddling someone to pushing them away for no outwardly discernible reason. A few of her siblings and cousins had always been less likely to be on the receiving end of such temperamental behavior, however, so when she'd started snapping at those, it had become clear that something was up. But oh, she still very much wanted affection and closeness, and right after hissing at one friend, would sweetly approach another for boops and snuggles...right up until she was tired of that one. Back and forth and in circles she went, until she'd exhausted all of her cuddle partners. The last day had been the worst, since by that point, soft glow or not, few were brave or tolerant enough to risk the inevitable mood swing, leaving her wanting and deeply annoyed.
Finally, half a candlemark after dinner, with Hers - the only one who had no need to worry that she would be rumbled at - leaning up against her as she studied, Samodith raised purple eyes to the darkening sky and shifted. The evening air is most pleasant. ...Yes, I think this will do quite nicely. A nuzzle for Akaris, and she nudged her rider to her feet and inside so that she would have the space she needed to unfurl her bright wings and push herself from the ledge. She let herself fall for a few moments before she caught the air, bugling sweetly to the Weyr.
Oh, won't anyone come and keep me company? I cannot bear the thought of being alone on such a perfect night.
She wasted no time on a blooding, as she had energy enough on her own from the anticipation that had been building within her for some time. It wasn't that she wanted to be first, it was just that she happened to be ready. That others weren't, or wouldn't be for some time, was no concern of hers. Not even fond feelings for any of her classmates would keep her on the ground - she was ready now, and not waiting for anyone. They would have their chance another time.

About Akaris:
Confident, charming, 100% aware that she is gorgeous and willing to use that to her advantage; more vulnerable than she lets on, and highly dependent on the positive relationships in her life; romantic, but also a gossip.

- Rules/Info:
There will be 3 rounds of rolling, and then Samodith will choose a winner.
The first round will begin in about 36 hours (6:45 PM EST on Tuesday), and each round will last approximately 48 hours (or sooner if everyone has posted), maybe slightly more depending on my own schedule.
If you roll for your entry for the round, but don't fill your post, your points for that round will be halved.
Please keep track of your own score and be honest! The rolling and scores, however, are ultimately more for flavor than anything. If Samodith develops a hard preference, which may be influenced by score, that's who she will choose. The highest score or a suitor who matches her total are not guaranteed to win. If she is indecisive, I may roll between suitors.
Akaris will for sure be spending the Flight with R'lyr, so riders will have to find their own company!
This Flight is open to High Reaches residents only.
NPCs are fine, if you have no one eligible to chase.
