The unexpected voice had Nerreh spinning around to face the speaker, arms immediately raising to a defensive position. The presence of an unknown person had anxiety spiking for a moment before calming back down as she realized who it was.
"Hey, Ra-R'dare," Nerreh said, carefully using the bluerider's new name instead of his old nickname - just in case, though she didn't figure R'dare would care too much. Having grown up with him, Nerreh knew how laid-back he could be about things. Hopefully childhood nicknames were still allowed. Nerreh loved using nicknames for people, and a few of the weyrbrats they'd grown up with insisted on their honorific names only now. Boring. She grinned widely at her childhood friend. "Fancy seeing you in Telgar again. What're you doing here?" She asked, replaying his greeting in her head.
"You're headed to the kitchen too, then? Care to team up? I bet we can get more deserts with the 'R'dare's visiting and likes the food here better than at Fort, let him taste some real food for an evening' ploy than I could alone. You in?" She asked, making her eyes widen in feigned innocence as she mimicked the story for the kitchen workers. Not that she couldn't sidle in by herself and snatch a treat or two, but this way had the possibility of being even more profitable. Plus, she got to spend time with R'dare, who she hadn't seen in ages. Nerreh looked at him hopefully, keeping a touch of that feigned innocence in her eyes.
