Erisi was one of the last people that one would expect to be dragged out on some Candidate bonding expedition. Whatever. Valerian had decided to go on this camping trip, and Erisi was personally hoping for some woodsy rendezvous. Naked rendezvous. Plural now, because he was in a miserable mood. Charath had spent the first day following Valerian around like an over-sized puppy, and today she had gotten over her infatuation with his fellow Weyrling long enough to pick a victim out of the Candidates. Erisi didn't even pity them, because the attention she paid them was the attention he liked to avoid. Charath was perfectly fine when she wasn't in a mischievous mood. However, when she was... well, that poor Candidate probably knew by now.
His Green had spent the morning harassing the unfortunate soul. Well, not literally harassing them. The Green kept some distance between herself and the smaller human, mostly because she didn't like them. Still, wherever the Candidate went, Charath followed. When they'd look up from their breakfast, they'd see Erisi's Green staring at them from across the tents, perfectly motionless, eyes unblinking. Later when they went swimming in the lake, Charath was there again at the edge of the water, staring the poor soul down. It was a trick that she had mastered during her hatchling days - a classic, and she so loved it! The Green was likely waiting for the Candidate to break their composure, and she was going to keep it up until they did just that.
Which meant Erisi was alone. Talian was off somewhere probably doing Candidate 'bonding' without the fun. He sat at the lake's edge, a distance away from the tents, because most of the people here annoyed him. He had seen B'jin off somewhere, and I'shan was lurking around like the bastard he was. All the fun people were ignoring him. R'nd was tied down by B'jin, which was disgusting to begin with! So, he was out of the entertaining equation. Z'ia would have been some fun, but he had no idea where the bluerider was.
He was just bored, and he hated this trip. He was not the outdoorsy type. As a Harper he had spent a lot of time in taverns - there was no need to go trucking through the sharding wilderness. The Weyrling was beginning to realize that he had done this out of the good of his heart for nothing. There was no special perk besides getting Charath to shut up. Valerian certainly wasn't rewarding him with what he wanted... and Talian would likely not want to.
Not that he thought Talian would say no, because Talian was a confusing individual at times. He just knew that the Healer was probably sidling up to his disgusting 'father' and ugh.
I think I am finally getting to them! Charath hissed into his mind with delight.
'UGH.'
...What's your problem?
'Every-fucking-thing.'
How... unsurprising. A mental sigh quickly followed the droll comment.
