Kytara sat on the end of her bed in the candidate barracks between chores and lessons, a small journal open on her lap and one hand absently caressing a crimson flit curled next to her. Occasionally she glanced up to check that she was alone in the room before leaning down to start scribbling something into the journal. She let out a sigh and reached up to brush her hair from her face as she smiled down at the flit. "What do you think of Brakiath's clutch Tinlet? Think this might be my time? I sure hope so..."

Selene walked into the Canidate barracks and plopped onto her cot with a slow sigh. After the Touching she had grabbed a bit to eat before finishing her last chore. Movement caused her gaze to shift from the ceiling to see someone with a crimson flit next to them. Selene sat up and smiled lightly, "The Touching was a little more nerve racking this time, wasn't it?"

She jumped, yanking her pen away from the page with practiced ease so as not to ruin the page. She hesitated as she looked up to see the tall red-head lounging on her cot. Slowly she nodded and closed the journal to give the girl her full attention. "It always is. For me at least. Exciting too though." The flit lifted her head and trilled happily and with a burst of her wings lifted up off the cot and darted across the room to investigate the other girl. "Tinlet. Don't!" She frowned and began to untangle herself from where she had been perched to retrieve the little beast.

Selene smiled, "Touchings are always exciting." She laughed as the flit came to inspect her. "Oh, it's fine. They haven't hurt me. I'm Selene. What's your name?"

Kytara reached out to pull the crimson back into her chest and sat down on the very edge of the other girl's cot. "Kytara. Its nice to meet you." She ran a finger tip across the crimson's tender eye ridge and smiled as she was rewarded with a flood of happy thoughts from the flit. She stayed quiet for a little longer as she tried to come up with something interesting to say. Eventually she settled for motioning down to the crimson. "This is Tinlet."
She glanced around the room and frowned. "I have more, but they're...." She was interrupted by the noisy appearance of a rather irritated black flit. He seemed to peer at Selene before hissing and chattering at her threateningly. The blonde laughed as she looked to the black. "That's Tetheus. He thinks you're here to hurt me." She sent images of calm and peace toward the flit, who eventually -and rather grudgingly- stopped his threats to curl around Kytara's neck protectively.

"Well it's nice to meet both of you, too." She looked around as Kytara did eager to see more flits. Then the black showed itself and began to fuss. She blinked and stared at it a bit even when the girl explained. Soon she smiled as it settled on Kytara's neck. "I don't want to hurt anyone, Tetheus. It is good that he is protective of you." She looked at the girl for a moment. "How many turns have you been trying to find Yours?"

"This makes my third turn. I know others have taken longer, but the hurt is the same." She stroked Tetheus as Tinlet snorted at him disdainfully and moved to perch on the edge of Selene's knee, preening for her attention. "He's always been protective. I think he knows that I need someone who cares and understands." She trailed off and blushed a bit. "I'm not very social you see."

Selene nodded then, failing to Impress always stung. She paused and looked at her, "Three turns? So... how old are you? I don't want to assume your age." She giggled slightly as she looked down at Tinlet and began to stroke the firelizard. "You're a quiet person, there is nothing wrong with that. Which is probably the opposite of me. I like talking to other people, I thimk that is what keeps me sane right now."

"Eighteen. You?" She smiled at the warm sound of her giggle. "How old did you think? I'm truly curious." She watched as Tinlet leaned into Selene and trilled happily at the attention. She got the impression that the girl was really a sweet person, which relaxed her to some extent. No one else had told her that it was fine to be a quiet person. It was a nice feeling to know that someone accepted that without question.

"I'm eighteen too. I wanted to say about sixteen or fifteen, but that was based on height... I should better than that. I get mistaken for a boy more often than not."

She smiled lightly at the underlying compliment. Or at least what she took as a compliment. Her height was something that had never really bothered her. "If it helps, I didn't think you were a boy." She brushed some hair back behind her ear and went back to caressing Tetheus as he hissed at Tinlet. The crimson snorted at him and fanned her wings. She giggled and lifted the black up to rest on her shoulders.

Selene grinned as she watched the display before her. "It does, a bit. Normally I don't really care, but it's nice not to have to turn around and have the awkward conversation afterwards." She leaned against the wall slightly. "Everyone is really worried about this clutch, I can't blame them."
