Changeable, was she? She chewed the idea of being changeable over in her head for a moment, thinking of the different ways such a thing might be true. It was certainly true she was always trying new things, and going about poking her nose where it didn't belong. She also was learning to adjust to ideas as they were presented, and she tried to be open minded.
But other parts of her were not so changeable. She had a mischievous streak a mile wide, and she didn't think that would be going anywhere anytime soon. She was also incredibly stubborn, and wouldn't back down on something she believed in. She also tried to be kind as a constant, but that one was hard sometimes...like with bullies. Ugh, bullies.
"Yeah, I guess I am kinda changeable, at least sometimes." A note of pride crept into her voice, and she laughed softly. Changeable. As soon as he mentioned cliffs, she perked back up. "Psh, cliffs! Before you showed up, I jumped off that big rock up there." She pointed to the large boulder behind her, somewhat proud of the achievement. "I mean, its no actual cliff - did you mean an actual cliff? - but it wouldn't be too smart for me to jump from a cliff. There's no way to land safely." She shrugged it off matter-of-factly, but the idea niggled in the back of her mind. Maybe there was a way to do it that she simply hadn't thought of! She'd have to review this new activity later.
As he asked about sitting and talking, she gave him a blunt, appraising sort of look. Other things she should be getting up to? Involving pants? He was probably talking about sex. She still hadn't found the right person to ask for experimentation yet...the idea of sex had come on rather quickly in the last couple of months. She was sure she would find someone patient and willing to teach sooner or later. But it simply hadn't become relevant yet.
"Maybe I like to talk before I go throwing myself at someone," she stated, a blunt grin on her face. "I get into plenty of trouble on my own, I'll have you know. Taking the time to sit down and not get into trouble with the leaders of the weyr once in a while is supposedly good for me."
