S'kef watched with interest as the goldpair approached. Jada was a lovely girl. S'kef had his own private interests in other areas, but there was still no denying that. The ungainly gold dragonet beside her would continue to grow into something elegant and beautiful, befitting of such a graceful looking young lady. S'kef smiled a little bit.
Ah, there it was. He loved being a source of fear, even when it came from sources he wouldn't generally approve of. He didn't particularly want to intimidate Jada, but the stiffness he could see in her, the momentary hesitation...it all pointed to her knowing who he was and seeing what he'd done. It felt good. His concern over his reinstatement as Weyrsecond had been growing as of late. The Weyrleader was coming to a decision awfully slowly, and that bode ill for the brownrider. It was nice to be reminded that everyone still knew who he was.
"It's not a problem, miss Jada," he assured her. Okay, so maybe it was a bit of a hassle, but he didn't mind that. Duty came before comfort. He looked at Krypth and smiled at her crooned greeting. "She really is growing up to be quite lovely," he remarked in the smooth tone he used for business. Tyrrisath offered Krypth a silent greeting as well. He projected warm feelings, but he was, well...the strong, silent type. He waited until she spoke to him before saying anything at all.
I will. I hope you enjoy it he said pleasantly. He enjoyed hunting, and he knew that his rider did as well. Shame they couldn't fly.
S'kef turned to his dragon and prepared to mount. His assumption would be that he and Tyrrisath would transport Jada off into the woods to hunt on foot...he didn't expect Krypth to actually come along, so how he was going to have to make up his plan as he went. He'd seen what the dragonet had done to D'ren's hut when asked to leave, and to be honest, S'kef wanted to be in the best possible graces with any future potential leadership.
"Since Krypth can't fly yet, we'll have to use bows and spears for hunting...Do you have any experience, miss Jada?"
