The towel was being abused as much as he was, R'nd thought absently as he chucked it to a rock, uncaring of how it ended up after still getting whacked in the face by it despite his hand intercepting most of the material. Then again, the towel wasn't judging him and throwing around crazy accusations like being lovestruck or giddy over someone. It's your own fault, you know. You made him explain his interest in your colourful collection of bruises. R'nd watched Ayyonth continue his lazy swim around the lake, looking utterly unconcerned with the situation his rider had landed himself in. It wasn't like he needed an ever so helpful dragon pointing that out and R'nd barely contained a huff of annoyance for how well he trapped himself.
As bold as it was given Kerrin's unpredictable mood, R'nd turned his back to the younger man and moved away several paces where he stopped and stared, unfocused, at their surroundings. He did not want to talk about feelings. He didn't even understand his own feelings so how could he attempt explaining them to someone else? Maybe he could ignore replying and offer to give Kerrin that lift back to his hut and they could go about their usual routine of ignoring each other for a sevenday before the next prank took place. If Kerrin truly wishes to leave, I'll take him but it's better if you both talk for a change. With a sigh, R'nd glanced over his shoulder at Kerrin, "sometimes how much Ayyonth likes you is a real pain."
He fell silent again and R'nd knew he had to say something soon or Kerrin would come up with his own theories and once that happened, it would pretty much become truth to the weyrbrat and nothing would change his stubborn mind. "That was the one flight I have always wanted to win even before Impressing Ayyonth. He's unattainable outside of flights." He spoke quietly but R'nd was pleased that his voice was still strong and didn't warble as he attempted to explain why he was a little out of sorts every time B'jin was mentioned.
Kerrin was treated with the crooked smile that R'nd didn't always like popping up since it made him look younger and innocent, or in this case, embarrassed as he slowly worked his way to stand before his friend. "Shocking, I know, that even I can end up a little infatuated with someone."
