She was a little disappointed when Casa didn't put up much of a fight. She sighed inwardly, maybe she shouldn't have wanted Casa to fight with her weyrleaders. It was bad practice for such things, but Ameris knew Casa wasn't much of a fighter and she wanted the girl to learn how to speak up when she didn't want to do something. Thallyath would help her, Ameris knew, but she couldn't always lean on her dragon as a crutch. Showing a little backbone was good for you. Gave one character where they might have missed it otherwise. Oh give over Ameris. Maybe she just likes babies, her dragon commented in her mind and Ameris mentally scoffed. She doubted it.
She glanced at M'ris to gauge his reaction before looking back at Casa. She pursed her lips as she thought about her answer. Now would be lovely, but neither of them were ready for a visit to Telgar and while Eris was well with the creche workers, Ameris had a hard time leaving her alone for long. A hold over from her years caring for Rislan alone she had no doubt. An hour should do. "Are you willing to take her in an hour? Hour and a half at the latest?" she asked, perhaps a bit mischievously. Maybe now Casa would refuse. Demand a new time. It was difficult to keep the look of triumph off her face, Ameris thought she had this in the bag.
"What do you say, M'ris?" she turned to ask the bronzerider, "Wanna go to Telgar in an hour?"
