Kel gave Beckitt a small smile and leaned on him for a moment as he spoke. She frowned a bit at that but nodded. "You're right of course. Everyone has been speaking ill of the flight, of Faxxonth, of Nerreh and Casa too I am sure. Why wouldn't the hatchlings be upset?", she said quietly, agreeing with his words. It made sense, of course. She knew that if people were talking badly about her parents, she would respond with anger too. But dragons, from all she knew, didn't quite think like humans did, so was it really all the negativity that was driving the intense bitterness coming from that little clutch? She couldn't know, and likely never would, but t plagued her thoughts regardless.
She made a little face at him then gave a nod and a smile. "True enough, I suppose. I guess we shall have to wait and see how they behave when they hatch, but I am a little afraid to stand for them. To his question of her father and brother being riders she nodded. "They are, but I have not spoken to either of them about it. I would hate to bother my father and L'ton is likely to tease me about being afraid of hatchlings.", she said the last with a roll of her eyes and a smirk. She turned in her seat a little since he had dropped his arm from her shoulders so that she could face him more as they talked. "I may ask my father tomorrow if he is not busy. It would give me an excuse to see his Ironth." That made her smile. She loved both her father's and brother's dragons, but Ironth was just the sweetest brown dragon and always let her scratch his eye ridges and sit on his paw.
Her smile faded quickly as Beck told her about his experience with the eggs. She placed a gentle hand on his shoulder, a small frown of concern for her friend. "You are right, it isn't their fault. You are right about that though. Unexpected things do happen all the time." They knew all too well about unexpected things happening, considering where they grew up. "I am not angry. I am just very worried and scared, for my friends and for those hatchlings too." She took a deep breath and let it out slowly. "I hope you are right, Beck. I hope they hatch differently. I hope their reactions do not overpower the love they could give and receive."
