"I don't understand why I have to wear a dress out there, even if it is tradition. Just because I happen to be biologically female doesn't mean I need to dress like one while we're all standing for Impressions, right?"

Yulu stared down the Candidatemaster as she held her robes in her hand, her displeasure evident over the fact that she was not holding any pants and instead had something of a dress. After the incident with Jada and the dining hall she had sworn up and down she would never be caught in such attire ever again, yet when it came time for her to try on robes again to make sure they still fit . . . she was disappointingly given a dress.

"Dragons aren't stupid enough to mistake someone's gender just because of their clothing, so why must I wear this? Please explain it to me using words other than 'because I said so' or 'It's tradition'."

She didn't get an answer she wanted right away, the man telling her she'd best shut up and simply walk away before they took away her right to Stand, and Yulu cursed mildly under her breath as she stomped off to a corner to look at the gown in her hands. No way was she going to wear something like this, not without pants underneath anyway.

Lelia was having a good day. She had a lot of good days; why wouldn't she? Life was good, there were eggs on the sands, and she was happy. She hummed a song under her breath, and even danced a little as she walked. She was heading in the -relative- direction of the kitchens, where she was going to help prepare food, but she'd gotten sidetracked with something, and was running a little late. It wasn't a big deal though, she would get there before too long, and things would work out. Lelia wasn't prone to worrying.

As she walked, she couldn't help but frown, just a tad, at just how drab and boring the Weyr was. Stone was necessary for threadfall, yes, but...it was so boring! Lelia would have loved to play the part of interior decorator. Wouldn't that be grand? Entranced in this thought, it was then that she noticed Yulu. Lelia didn't know her well, it was difficult to know everyone, but what bothered Lelia more than her unfamiliarity with a fellow candidate was the way she looked. She didn't look very happy, and the way she was looking at that dress of hers...was something wrong?

Lelia discarded temporarily her task of getting to the kitchens and siddled over to where Yulu was, careful not to get too close; it was hard to tell where people's personal space bubbles ended and began sometimes. "You're Yulu, right?" Lelia asked, holding out a hand for shaking. "I'm Lelia," that part was added so that, in the instance that Yulu didn't recognize her, Yulu wouldn't feel awkward about not knowing her name. "Pardon my intrusion, but you look a little peeved. Is there something I could help you with?"

Yulu had no idea who this person was who just addressed her by name, both options presented to her completely blank from her memory. It wasn't that surprising at all that she didn't know who this woman was, Yulu not the social butterfly type at all despite how many people she actually did know in the Weyr, so to hear a stranger call her name so casually unnerved her a bit. Did she have a reputation that was preceding her or something? It wouldn't be all that surprising considering how she was, but Yulu didn't want to think on that.

"Unless you can make it so I'm suddenly genetically a man then there's nothing you can do for me. Tradition states that if I want to be standing on those Sands then I have to toss myself into a dress and shut up. I have half a mind to just pin this sharding thing together when I get out there and making it into makeshift pants."

Yulu looked at the white object on her arm as if it were a form of the plague itself, her lips pursed in an unhappy frown that only seemed to grow larger on her face.
