Nerreh nodded thoughtfully. “Camping’s a good idea. And I don’t think anyone would begrudge the newly graduated dragonriders a few days off to celebrate. Especially if they know you won’t be planning this camping trip,” she said with a grin. “Which, by the way, you are required to invite me to if you ever have another. I won’t have a month old hatchling next time.” Not that Nerreh had really cared at the time. Baby Faxxonth was much more important than some camping trip, but in the months that followed, all the stories and gossip that came out of it had Nerreh wishing she could have been there. Even if just to, you know, be able to say she had been there.
No matter. Chances were good Casa (or someone else, Nerreh knew plenty of people who, if prompted, would be eager to organize their own, similar event) would have another camping trip. If the Weyrleader let her, but, well, they weren’t hurting anyone. Just young people getting better acquainted. On several levels.
“Still, I’d have to, what, get permission from M’ris? Ameris? The Weyrlingmaster? I suppose not him, if we’re graduated we’re not his problem anymore. Should prolly give New Katila a heads up that a potentially large group of dragonriders will be around, shouldn’t we? Wouldn’t want to give all the old people heart problems from the surprise.” Nerreh let out a short laugh before trailing off, thinking of all the other things she might need to work out to have the most awesome non-sexy camping trip in the history of Pern.
