R'dal giggled and scrunched up his nose at Aederyn as she scolded him for trying to leave and then seconds later promising she wouldn't step on his toes while dancing. "I'll stay then, only because you have guaranteed my toes will be safe. I'd hate to leave them exposed and vulnerable by leaving." He stuck his tongue out at her and then slid into the last vacant seat at their little table.
Since he only knew what Aederyn had told him about the craft, R'dal didn't have much to add to the conversation but he was listening closely to it as he ate his tart. He was a bit confused by some of the talk but he did find it odd that Aleske, so fond of running and seeing the world would want to settle in one place. Aederyn kind of did the same thing but that was to avoid being forced into a life she didn't want and she fit in well at the Weyr. Any clutch now, a dragon would claim her.
"I met Aederyn on a trace. I thought she was injured and we checked on her. But I'll get her to properly show me some of the amazing ones soon. As long as cheating to get there on Edath is okay and then we can go for a stroll." That sounded nice, honestly. There was so much to see on the planet and exploring parts that a friend knew well and wanted to show off would be fun. They could pack food and have a picnic!
"But, Alekse..." he paused, biting his lower lip as he briefly hesitated asking, "it sounds like you love the run and the views. It also sounds like a master doesn't really travel anymore so why choose that path? Are you looking to settle settle down?" He was a holder and R'dal knew how important marriage was to them, especially this particular family. Maybe Alekse was being pressured to find a wife now that they couldn't marry off Aederyn.
