Children in riding gear were frankly ridiculous, Helyna thought as she stuffed her son into a thick jacket for the quick trip to Telgar. ‘He looks like an obese wherry fattened up for a gather.’ She felt a ripple of amusement from Iliyith at the thought and smiled as she fastened the last toggle and picked the boy up. At least the outfit was good for one thing, she mused--it restricted his range of motion and made it harder for him to squirm or kick loose and make mischief. Though all the padding leant an alarming air of invincibility to the 2-turn-old scamp.

“Sit still or you won’t get to see Auntie Tala today after all,” the goldrider chided, checking their riding straps again. It was a toothless threat, but it worked, by some miracle. He quieted just long enough to take off and wink between, giggling with delight as the cold faded and the watchdragon called a welcome. Iliyith angled towards Tala’s weyr, greeting Niath as she landed delicately on the green’s ledge.

“Good morning, Tala, Ryvala. How are you ladies today?” Helyna slipped down off Iliyith’s neck, stroking the gold’s skin, then lifting Vondlyn down. She helped him off with his jacket and further into the room to see their friends. “Just finishing breakfast?” She stole a piece of fruit off Tala’s plate with a smile, taking a bite and offering the other half to Vondlyn who ignored it in favor of babbling hello to Niath. Rolling her eyes with a smirk of amusement, she finished the bite herself.

Tala laughed at Helyna’s theft of the fruit, shooting her a grin as she helped Ryvala down off her stool when the girl shrieked in excitement at Vondlyn’s presence. She let Ryvala rush off to her friend and start talking excitedly at him - she was almost a full turn older than Vondlyn, and could talk circles around him, but neither seemed to mind much, especially not when there were dragons around for added entertainment. Tala watched them for a moment before turning back to Helyna and giving her an amused look.

“I suppose breakfast must be finished, since you just had the last fruit slice,” she teased, not at all bothered by it. There were still bread and things, and neither she nor Ryvala had been eating anymore by the time Iliyith showed up on their ledge. “Vala’s certainly done with the meal,” Tala noted, as Ryvala and Vondlyn both clambered around Niath, who put up with it good naturedly. Did Tala ever luck out with Niath, since the big green girl - and wow, had she bulked up as she neared adulthood! - seemed to have an endless tolerance for children. Made her life easier, certainly, since Niath was perfectly happy to babysit (At least in so far as a dragon can keep an eye on a human child).

“Now, Lyna, sit, Niath will watch them, and we can have our own fun,” Tala said cheerfully, gesturing to one of the adult sized chairs Tala kept for guests.

A flicker of embarrassment crossed her face as Tala revealed it had been the last of the fruit, but it passed quickly enough as she wasn’t rebuked for the thievery. She turned and watched the two children playing with the patient green, smiling. “How have you been since I saw you last?” The goldrider asked as she took the offered chair. “Niath is looking quite well; she’s big for a green, but she’s well proportioned.”

They chatted for a while about this and that while the kids entertained themselves. Between Iliyith and Niath stretched out along the weyr ledge it would be difficult for the children to get too close without an alarm being raised by one of the dragons, so she wasn’t terribly concerned about leaving them to their own devices. The gold pretended to be above such silliness as babysitting human children, but her rider could see her eyes barely slit open, watching and whirling an amused blue as she “idly” swished her tail and the children chased it.

Helyna had pulled their chairs closer together, sipping a cup of klah absently. She glanced over at Tala with a smile. “I’ve missed chatting with someone like this. Chatting with you. We had hardly any time together as Candidates it seems like.”

The compliment Helyna gave Niath brought a flush of pride to Tala’s face. It was always nice to hear someone else praise her dragon, because while Tala knew she was right, she was also a little biased when it came to Niath. Other people saying it proved beyond doubt that it was true.

It had been a while since Tala had been able to spend much time with Helyna, and she was greatly enjoying the chance to do so again. They’d met as Candidates, shortly after Helyna had been Searched, but it hadn’t been too long until Helyna had Impressed, and then Tala Impressed a couple turns later, and both of them had had babies in between. Hard to find time for friends in other Weyrs, especially when one or the other of you couldn’t go between.

“Our timing was rather poor,” she said with a giggle when Helyna voiced much of what Tala had been thinking. “We’ll just have to make up for lost time, won’t we? How tragic, having to see each other more often.” Tala smiled at her, reaching forward to gently take Helyna’s hand. “I’ll be graduated in under three months, so we’ll have plenty of time to see each other.”

“You know… I’ve spent a long time wondering, ever since I got to the weyr. I grew up in the crafthall, and well, certain things are frowned on.” She laced their fingers together, looking down at their hands contemplatively. “I’ve told you about Vondal; the man I named Vondlyn for. He was the one person who knew all my secrets.”

Helyna smiled a little at the memory. “We married to hide ourselves. Neither of us could have dreamed that coming to a weyr could have solved all our problems. Plenty of handsome men for him…” her eyes darted up to Tala’s, “and lovely ladies for me.”

She paused and bit her lip before continuing. “We’ve lost so much time. Would it be alright if I kissed you, Tala?”

“It would be more than alright,” Tala smiled, tilting her head invitingly and leaning closer. She didn’t try to press her mouth to Helyna’s, wanting to let her choose the moment. She had asked to kiss Tala after all, and Tala planned to give her what she wanted.

Hearing about the sorts of things that were ‘frowned upon’ in the Halls and Holds always made Tala a little sad. She had a number of holdbred friends, and they all had so many hang ups about all sorts of things that Tala just thought of as how things were. As long as she’d been aware of kissing as a thing she could do, Tala had known she wanted to kiss girls (and boys, usually) and as soon as she’d had the opportunity she’d done so and not thought overly much about it. But people like Helyna weren’t able to be so casual about such things - at all, and much less so with people of their own gender. That Helyna and her husband had married so they didn’t have to marry anyone else… it was a little heartbreaking, Tala felt. And poor Vondal never got the chance to realize things could be better.

Not Helyna, though. She had the chance to live a proper life at a Weyr, and Tala would help her, though hardly solely out of the goodness of her heart - Helyna was very pretty, and clever, and fun to be around, and Tala was weak when it came to headstrong women. It was a flaw she was perfectly aware of and had little motivation to change. Letting Helyna kiss her as much as she liked was much more enjoyable than needlessly denying herself the pleasure.

Helyna had stolen kisses (and quite a bit more) before, back in the crafthall, and occasionally since coming to the Weyr, but this was different. Those early kisses had been clandestine, the experimentations just that--experiments. And none of those girls had been quite as pretty as Tala, or as good a friend.

Resting a hand on her cheek, Lyna brushed a thumb lightly over Tala's bottom lip before closing the distance between them. The kiss started almost hesitantly, pulling back slightly before one of them made a greedy whine and suddenly all thought of moving slowly vanished. Her hands tangled in Tala's hair, pulling her closer as she kissed her again eagerly.

They kissed until Helyna felt dizzy with excitement, thrilled at the way Tala responded. Weyrlinghood be damned, why had she had to wait so long for this?

This, Tala decided, was the best way Helyna’s visit could have gone. She let Lyna lead the kiss, making encouraging noises all the while. Somehow - Tala didn’t really remember how it happened - she ended up in Helyna’s lap, one hand on the back of her head and the other at her waist, playing with the hem of her shirt. It had been a while since Tala had properly kissed anyone, with Niath and Ryvala taking up most of her time, and especially since she’d kissed anyone she liked quite as much as Helyna, and Tala didn’t want to waste any more time.

Soon she’d moved her hand from playing with the hem of Lyna’s shirt to sliding under it, still kissing her until Tala absolutely had to pause to take a breath. She wanted to say something to Helyna - tell her how beautiful she was, how much fun to be around, how fun to kiss - but couldn’t decide what to go with, so just leaned in to kiss her again, until once again they had to break for air. This time Tala wanted to try something new, and she temporarily left Lyna’s lips alone to start kissing and nibbling along her neck, the hand under her shirt having reached one of Helyna’s breasts during the last round of kissing. Tala was just considering removing Lyna’s shirt entirely when laughter came echoing in from the other room and Helyna seemed to freeze up. Right, children. Whatever, the dragons were watching them, they didn’t need to stop. But Helyna didn’t seem like she quite agreed. Tala whined softly at her, nosing at the soft skin behind Lyna’s ear, trying to encourage her to ignore the kids laughing.

Helyna forgot everything beyond the taste of Tala’s lips; the kisses were intoxicating. She felt her breath hitch as a hand slid under her shirt, and pulled Tala closer, nipping at her lip as they broke for breath again.

Gasping as fingers brushed her breasts, her grip on Tala’s hips tightened. She tried chasing after Tala’s lips as she drew away, but Tala surprised her with a series of delightful kisses and nips to her neck. Her hands roamed her back and thighs and she let her head tip back with a moan. “Tala…” She wasn’t asking for anything, but also asking for everything.

The children’s laughter startled her, bringing her back fully to where they were. “The kids… Should we…? We should…” but Tala was doing something distracting to her ear or the skin behind it. It was hard to think. Iliyith?

The children are fine. She got an image of the kids playing with Niath, well away from the ledge. We will tell you if anything happens. They’re just happy. You should be too. You’ve been thinking about her for weeks. Her gold seemed amused at her conflict and Helyna shot a glare at the wall, then pulled Tala back in for another kiss.

Tala gave a pleased hum when Helyna seemed to resolve her hesitance and move in for another kiss, which Tala returned with enthusiasm. The kids were fine, and they’d remain fine while their mothers had some fun of their own. Niath would get her attention if they were needed, and Tala knew her green and her daughter could hang out for ages before Ryvala got restless or hungry and went looking for her mother. No, she had Lyna all to herself for a while yet and Tala planned to take full advantage of that time.

She had stilled her hand on Helyna’s breast when the other woman had paused to worry about the children being too close or something, but with the clear invitation to keep going Tala moved her remaining hand to Lyna’s other breast, and began to gently play with both of them. There was still a layer of clothing between her hands and skin, but that could be dealt with soon enough. Tala didn’t want to start stripping her if Helyna was worried about the kids walking in, so she figured it was about time to move things to the bedroom. Still, she couldn’t resist teasing a little more before they changed locations, so Tala moved to ground down on Helyna’s lap, breaking the kiss as she gasped at the contact.

“Bed?” she asked breathlessly, biting her kiss-swollen lips in what she hoped was an enticing way.
