Oenthi let out a chuckle when he mentioned escaping. He sounded just like her, although she got luckier today than him. She just happened to not be needed for anything. "Well, the water is always a great place to escape to. Its so quiet and peaceful here," she trailed as she watched a small breeze create ripples in the water. She then thought of weyrlings and chuckled again, "At least while there are no young weyrlings using it to bathe." Bathing Verchaylth was always a pain, she's so big that it takes forever to scrub and rinse her off. It'd be so much easier if the gold actually just took a dip in the lake instead of giving her a fight about getting wet.
Watching R'nya's expression change was interesting to see for Oenthi. Back at Telgar, she didn't interact with the Weyrleaders in a casual manner so to be able to do so in Fort was different. She was still wondering how to react and go about the conversation she was having with him right now. Her smile turned down a little when he commented about his younger daughter being sick. "Sick again?" she offhandedly asked, knowing that their youngest was frailer in health than her older sister. It reminded Oenthi of her own family, her father was still alive but her mother had passed away because of the plague. She also had an older half brother and younger sister. After being kidnapped and taken to Katlia, she didn't have time to reflect back on her previous life.
You were not meant to be a farm's worker for the rest of your life
This I know Vera, but I do wonder about my siblings now that things have settled for me...
Her thoughts trailed off and returned to R'nya where she found his gaze studying Verchaylth. Her right eye slightly twitched when he asked about her rising, though she wasn't sure if it was a question or more of a statement. "No, and I am glad for it. I'd like to see us settled in more before she decides to rise," she answered and sighed lightly. Honestly, if anything scared her right now, it was Verchaylth rising to mate. She had yet to experience being in the sheets with someone. "Though with her coloring, it might be challenging to see the differences when she's showing signs." she commented, trying to picture Verchaylth even paler than she is now.
