Charm had settled in nicely in Benden and had even watched her first flight, granted it had been from a considerable distance. She'd also managed to find herself happily attached to a pretty green flit she called Emmy. Life was good and even though she missed her family she was glad for the experience.
Today's weather was nice so she and Emmy had decided to wander around and enjoy it. She kind of hoped she'd be able to actually meet some people today and possibly make a few friends. Though knowing her own tendencies she also grabbed a book just in case they sat down out of the way to read.

As Charm strolled through the Bowl she unwittingly captured the attention of a young dragon rider and his junior brown. The young dragon rider, who happened to be about her age, paused while oiling his dragon's hide and watched her for a couple of seconds. He swallowed hard.
Sensing his rider's discomfort, Stoloth lifted his head and looked in Charm's direction. T'go's heart jumped into his throat. He ducked behind the brown's massive shoulder. "Put your head down! She'll see us!" he thought sharply at his dragon.
Stoloth looked back and fourth in confusion. For a couple of seconds he looked very conspicious. "Who is she? Why do you want to be unseen?" All that Stoloth knew was that she was a girl. He could never understand why, but His always acted strangely around girls, even perfectly normal looking girls. T'go's mysterious behavior made him nervous.

Occasionally B'nas made a point of looking over the new candidates, before the candidate master got hold of them. He'd been heading right over when he saw one of the newest Riders Oiling his dragon. He smiled and strode over, full of his usual confidence. "T'go is it? how is your Dragon doing? I can see he's growing fine, you're doing a good job with him so far" he said loudly as he moved towards the junior Rider.
B'nas, he is nervous, there is a girl over there i can see. Informed the large Brown, who was hovering above, picking out his meal. behave yourself B'nas Mine.
B'nas grinned and looked over in the direction that Milnth mentally indicated, "Hello!" he called to her, she seemed to have a book or something, "Over here Miss!" he shouted over to Charm. To T'go he put a hand on the lad's shoulder "you'd better learn fast boy, it won't be long before your fine fellow is after the females himself" he chuckled, not realizing he could possibly be frightening the boy.

Charm and Emmy had wandered their way near the dragons and had be debating over the coloring of a pretty green. Emmy feeling of course that her coloring was better while Charm insisted that they both were beautiful. So it wasn't until some started shouting that she turned around and noticed to guys, she waved and started towards them. On appeared to be shy while the other seems confident, both had to be riders, she hoped she hadn't done something wrong in coming down this way. Emmy was pleased that hers was meeting people and away from those dusty books that made her sneeze. She managed to lounge lazily over Charm's shoulders as they walked within speaking distance. "Afternoon Riders. Hope we're not disrupting just had to come take a look and get used to the place. Name's Charmaine, feel free to call me Charm though. And this little gal is EmeraldSkye, but I call her Emmy."

"Shhh!" T'go urged B'nas as he crouched behind Stoloth. When B'nas started calling to the girl his large eyes nearly popped out of his skull. "W-what are you d-doing!?" he hissed as sharply as he could. With a stutter like his and a girl coming this way it was amazing he managed to say anything at all. It was all owed to the power of adreniline coursing through him. He gawked at B'nas, aghast. Why would he be so cruel?
When Charm suddenly appeared T'go leapt to his feet. He tried to stand up straight but only slouched and fidgeted. Even so, he stood much taller than Charm. Despite being eightteen he rarely worked up the courage to talk to girls. This was due almost entirely to his stutter, which became practically debilitating in front of the opposite sex. "Um-um-um... n-n-n-nice t-t-to m-m-m-me-meet y-y-y-you m-m-miss..."
His cheeks flushed bright red as something wet and sticky dribbled down his shirt. Looking down quickly, he saw that the rag he'd been using to oil Stoloth wrenched tight between his nervous hands and dripping oil down his front. He swipped his sleeve across his chest, looked at Emmy, bowed, then picked up his bucket and moved to Stoloth's other side.
As Stoloth watched the scene unfolded his wings twitched nervously. He always felt anxious when confronted with something he couldn't understand. "Mine? Why do you run? Is something wrong?"
"No!" T'go thought, rubbing the oil deep into Stoloth's hide. His face resembled a ripe tomato. "She's a girl! I can't talk to girls! They make me stutter and I can't say a word!"

"B'NAS, stop it. The boy is nervous. Behave! scolded Milnth.
B'nas blinked as his Dragon's mental yell and scolding. "Milnth, the boy has to learn, best if he gets tossed in the deep end straight away" he answered. He didn't realize how deeply the boys nerves seemed to run.
His hand left the boys shoulder as he looked down, he'd spilled oil down his shirt, instantly B'nas cringed inwardly but turned to the girl. "Charm?... well i am Charmed to meet you" he said, grinning. "pretty flit, i have a green myself, she's probably off scolding someone in the kitchens" he laughed, eyeing T'go who scrambled round to the other side of his brown. "That... is T'go, i'm guessing you're a new candidate? Im sure T'go here could tell you about his Dragon, and how hard he has to work?" he offered up, hoping that talking about his dragon would bring the lad out of himself.

Charm smiled nicely at the boy with the stutter, she'd been right he was shy, very shy. She shook her head as he hid behind his dragon oil dripping down his shirt, the poor guy. Her attention was quickly pulled towards the other as he spoke. Her grin returned as he couldn't seem to resist the age old pun of her name. "She's scolding people?!" Charm couldn't help but giggle at the thought. "Guess they are all different."
She smiled and waved over to T'go as she was introduced to him. "Yea I'm new just got in, what a week ago I think...Nice to meet ya T'go! Your brown is absolutely stunning. How old is he? Is he one of the ones during the recent flight?" B'nas had gotten her started, her drive to learn combined with her curiosity could be a deadly combination for anyone. "Though apparently they don't keep a record of green flights but the rumors that came from looking were quite interesting." She finally turns back to B'nas. "Were you there?! I'd love to hear your take on it."
