Indivara watched with jealousy and determination as the first few Hatchlings made their way onto the Sands, and the first one Impressed - to a girl no less! Indivara's chin jutted out stubbornly and she threw a smug look in the direction she knew D'ren had ended up in for the viewing. That would show him and his silly decrees! Feeling incredibly smug, the girl looked around with a narrowing gaze as she realised how dark it was getting. Some idiot had forgotten to bring along glows and torches. As a result, the growing lateness of hour and the dying season meant it was growing dark quickly. Indivara suddenly smirked widely, white teeth flashing in the faint light. Perfect!
She didn't move, as she heard murmurs that another Impression had been made, and she gazed towards the entrance way where another young woman was tending to a green. The sight did nothing but solidify her determination; there was a dragonet here for her, and D'ren would see how much the young greens favoured women over men! Pushing her hair out of her face, the child tugged out the leather thong that had been falling away and quickly retied it, keeping it out of her face as two young men were Impressed to blue dragons.
She waited quietly for several minutes, her small body shifting from side to side as she swayed on the hot sands. Fifteen minutes later, and very little was happening as she heard the new Weyrlings chatting and feeding their babies. It was darker now, Indivara realised, and she had to seriously squint in order to see what was going on on the Sands. Pursing her lips, she inched along the wall, angling along until she was even with the closest batch of Candidates.
Becoming even with them, the child slipped away from the wall, and with swift steps joined them quietly. They were mumbling to themselves as they swayed anxiously. Not recognising any of the voices or faces on closer inspection, Indivara slipped quietly away, weaving through the spaced young men and women until she finally spotted a familiar face. Her lips twisted into a smirk as the slinked along in the sand to pop up suddenly behind Kerrin, her hand touching the older boy gently on the waist.
"Hello," the girl whispered, her voice bright with eager anticipation as she joined her friend, standing close as she gazed up with bright blue eyes. "Bet I Impress first." Her voice was low pitched, and her smirk teasing; she ignored the other three. Valerian had claimed open friendship with Larrikith (there couldn't be a worse sin) and the girl only had mild knowledge on the other two. She was there to be with a friend, and, in all likely hood, out Impress him!
