Times had been rough recently. Some might even venture to say that was an understatement. With the refugees from Malvren and Benden pouring into Trine the already full Weyr was now uncomfortably stuffed. Ky't couldn't deny that things were in a miserable state, but for once she couldn't find room to care. Instead she was filled with an anxious happiness as she carefully carried the warm pot of sand down to the feeding grounds where she was supposed to meet N'var and Selene as they fed and then oiled their dragons. From somewhere above her she could hear Hermith's soft urges for her to hurry as a shared hunger began to grow in both of their stomachs. She grinned wide and did her best to pick up the pace.
Novath spiraled to the ground, barely giving N'var a chance to side to the ground before he shot upwards into a steep climb and leveled off to get a better look at the herdbeasts. He regarded them all with a critical eye before finding one to his liking and diving on it in a violent pounce. N'var simply shook his head and turned to watch for the two girls he was supposed to meet. Must you do that every time? Its not like the poor things can really escape from you. Its just cruel. Of course I do. You ought to know this by now.

Seth was up in the air watching the large blue torment the food. Seth was hungry and his rider who would normally be annoyed seemed lost in other thoughts. Seth looked for a chance as the blue climbed the sky, Mine, I'm diving. Amunet shook her head as she felt Seth dive for his chance. She leaned with him and as the Blue was above the heard Seth took himself a small one just big enough to hold him over for a few hours.
He flue to a cliff near by to watch the heard as he began to eat. Amunet looked at the blue and his rider giving a smile that was both sorry and flirtatious.

Selene moved through the crowds that now filled Trine. Ever since the Wher rebellion, riders from Bendan and Malvern had moved here. So it was more crowded than ever. She was supposed to be meeting Ky't at the feeding grounds. Something about a surprise.
Tessth followed her rider through the weyr. So Mine, did Ky't say why she wanted us at the feeding grounds? Not that I'm complaining, I am hungry.
No, she didn't. But no worries, Tessth you will be eating and oiled down soon.

N'var sucked in a sharp breath as he saw a black blur streak past Novath. As expected the blues eyes began to swirl red and orange in anger. While it may not have been his beast the black had stolen, that dive had been a clear challenge to the blue. He bellowed in anger as he curled protectively around his kill. N'var stepped forward to meet the black rider, surprised to see that he recognized her. "Amunet? Isn't it?"

Amunet nodded and looked at her Seth, "Sorry he was growing impatient. Forgive him."
She looked at the blue then N'var, "How's things been for you? I mean since the rebellion of those handlers."
Though she asked she really had her mind some where else still. Amunet was also holding a laugh back since she knew Seth didn't make many challenges but he was always bold when he did manage to anger another dragon off.

Selene and Tessth made it to the feeding grounds. She looked around and frowned lightly. "Well it doesn't seem she is here, let's get you fed while we wait." She paused as she saw the blue and black dragons and what had to be their riders. What is going on here? She felt Tessth start to nudge her her eyes red with hunger. We shall find out later I am hungry, Mine. Will you make me starve? Selene moved over to the tables of meat to feed her dragon.

Novath's temper steadily rose as he stared down the black. N'var shot a worried look toward the two dragons as he nodded only half listening to her. "Things have been alright. No worse than anyone else. You?" Novath. Enough. He's smaller than you. He's like a flit trying to be a dragon. Don't let them get to you. The blue grumbled something akin to agreement as he tore into his kill.
Hermith nudged Ky't to move faster as she saw the familiar crimson hide of Tessth. Hurry. Tessth and Selene are waiting. As are N'var and Novath. See. Ky't laughed as she approached the crimson pair and carefully set the pot of sand on the ground. "Hello Selene. Tessth. Sorry I kept you waiting."

Amunet smiled and looked at the large blue, "Again sorry Seth annoyed you." She looked back at N'var, "Well other then my mother things have been ok. More busy then I would like but at least we are still here you know."
Seth finished his meal and glanced at the blue as though he just noticed him. Amunet smiled as Seth talked to her, Mine, when did he finally make his kill? Seth just let it go and try not to piss him off any further then you have.

Selene looked up and smiled as she saw Ky't and her green Hermith, "Oh it's no problem." She was already rubbing her crimson down with sand. Hers had a sensitive hide after all she had to prevent cracks. "What do you make of that?" she asked motioning to the blue and black dragons.
Tessth looked over at Hermith her eyes whirling with joy. Good afternoon sister, how are you and Yours? Are you coping well with so many other riders and dragons here?"

The greenrider smiled as Selene brushed away her being late. We are fine sister. Mine seems to be coping well enough with all of the other pairs. It is a bit uncomfortable though. Though there is not enough time to be alone with our thoughts. As she prepared to begin oiling Hermith, another angry bellow from the blue combined with Selene's question drew her attention to the other pair. She frowned and watched the scene for a bit trying to discern what was going on.
N'var's attention fell solely on Novath as she continued to speak. The blue flared his wings as he began to reach his boiling point. With a resounding crack he slammed his tail to the ground -nearly hitting N'var- and knocking those nearby off balance. With a roar that left ears ringing he began to advance on the black. Say it again small one. I have had too much patience with you so far. I will not again.
NOVATH! Calm down. I know he is an insulting little pest, but now is not the time to fight amongst ourselves. Still riding the anger of his dragon he turned to Amunet, doing his best to keep calm and be an example for Novath. "If your black can't keep his tongue in his head than maybe you should hurry to feed him and leave."
Ky't turned to Selene with a worried expression. "I don't know really. But the blue pair is my brother and his Novath. Maybe we should go investigate. Novath seems really angry, and I know that his temper is hard to control." Hermith watched the arguing dragons for a while before nudging Ky't toward them. We should help mediate.

Amunet nodded and looked from the rider to the blue, "If his angry is so violent then we will leave." She looked down at the movement below them; she remembered the young one with her new dragon. Seth looked at Amunet and then the blue standing up, Just cause there is a flood of dragons here does not mean you can take your sweet time to eat. Others are hungry too. I even took one the smallest because I do not need to be a show off, but if your anger and selfishness harms Mine I will not stand for it. Seth's eyes began to sparkle a vivid red.
Amunet felt his anger and concern but instead she choose to place her hand on Seth's arm, "Seth back down please. I don't need you hurt." She looked back at N'var, "Sorry for being here. Just needed to feed him; also I believe that's your younger sibling down there."

Selene had been rubbing Tessth down, she had to make sure that Hers was well taken care of. She looked over to the male standing next to a rapidly angry blue that Ky't had pointed. "That's your brother huh? Do you know the woman with him?"
Mine, we should help them, or at least offer to. It wouldn't be right for them to fight in the feeding grounds. Besides, it wouldn't be right to expect only Hermith and Hers to go over there on their own. The crimson began nudging Selene alongside Ky't and Hermith.

Ky't shook her head by way of answering. "Not really. We met once before, but only briefly." They seem to be bickering over a few ill-worded remarks. I think it is rather petty, but some people take things like that to heart. Novath is one of those types. I hope N'var can keep him controlled.
N'var struggled with himself for a moment before his face softened and he held his hands up as a gesture of peace. "Sorry. I let a Novath's anger slip through. I didn't mean to be so rude and snippy. Its just difficult if they're both going to continue to throw insults at each other. Take as long as you need Amunet. Really." He sighed and glared up at Novath. ENOUGH! "I'm glad I ran into you again! Ky't and I have something for you, but this probably isn't the best time now."
Novath held his glare steadily on Seth. Older though he might have been, Novath had had enough. As he spoke his voice was even but low and obviously full of deep-rooted anger. I did not 'take my sweet time to eat'. I chose my beast and I killed it. You could not keep patient and it was you who was acting like a show off diving right in front of my nose. It was you who was acting like a wher-brained weyrling and it is your smart mouth that started this. Unlike you I am not the kind to bring harm to anyone unless it is to knock some obviously much needed sense into your tiny flit-brain. SO BACK OFF! His last words were emphasized with a bellow that shook N'var's chest.
I SAID ENOUGH! THAT MEANS BOTH OF YOU! Now control yourselves. Novath. Once more and I'll send you back to the weyr! Conduct yourself accordingly. How would Plexith react to see you now? Would you really like to represent the wing with your actions?

Amunet nodded slightly looking to Seth, "Please stop it."
Seth scowled at Novath holding his tongue but letting his anger still simmer.
Amunet sighed looking at N'var, "It's been very trying on us this year and both me and Seth have grown tired of the younger riders. Please forgive him for being so ill patient. If you and your sis have something for me then I shall wait, it is rude to turn down any gifts let alone do so because of pride."

Selene paused as she reached the older riders. Was the female rider truly that selfish? Everyone in the weyr worked their hands to the bone to become a rider and those who do not find theirs work in the harper and craft halls. Her hands balled into fists as she straight. She looked like a young man in the way she held herself. "Excuse me, but I do not think it is fair for you to blame the younger riders for your issues. This time has been trying for everyone, especially after the Wher Rebellion. You were once a young rider too, even though that must have been a long time ago if you have forgotten that."
Tessth moved more in front of Hers feeling Selene's frustrations, her eyes whirling white. Calm yourself, Mine. There is nothing you can do when someone feels that they are entitled to special treatment...
