"Meara?" Who was that? Jada didn't know of any women in the Weyr by the name of Meara, though it was possible that there was one. The Harper hadn't been in as much of a position to meet everyone just yet, but she was working on it! She'd been brought here at the very end of spring, and it had been halfway to mid-summer before she had reconciled herself enough to leave Candidate Isle; it was mid-autumn now. "Who is Mea- oof!" she had just gripped the empty container when a butt landed right against her own, knocking her into the leaves.
She fell forward, sprawling against the ground. Something landed- he was sitting on her arm! Her eyes widened in pain and the woman bit her lip in an attempt not to cry out in pain. "How about we- okay, ow! Get off me, Far, and we'll go talk about Meara in the barracks. We can pick up something to drink on the way." What a bribe! Jada managed to wriggle her hand free with some effort and gripped the Benden container with the other. As she rose to her feet, she could feel leaves falling. Great- she probably looked a fine mess now!
Glaring down at the man, who looked like a pitiful shadow in the dark, she sighed. It just wasn't in her to leave him here like this, even if it were to be to her advantage. "Come on, Far. Lets go get drunk."
