“I suspected,” R’nd replied casually, doing his best to keep the smug arrogance out of his voice at being right and over B’jin not seeming to truly mind. There was no point in denying it though later he would explain that he didn’t know until they arrived at the beach. Even that was only partially true. He always had a vague idea of when Larrikith would rise since Impressing and seeing her flights as the only chance to be with B’jin, and since winning that first flight and forming a friendship with the greenrider, he may have paid a little extra attention but so did Ayyonth. His dragon was smitten with the spunky green which amused R’nd more than terrified him; now anyway. It was a bit of shock to find out the dragons liked each other so much after losing Grith’s flight. His mind was most certainly not in any state to process that information!
Soon after Larrikith took off, Ayyonth was hot on her tail but R’nd’s gaze stayed on B’jin. He swore his friend had seemed frightened seconds before Larrikith flew but he couldn’t figure out why, or if he had even seen that emotion. Given the reaction Valerian was having – and R’nd couldn’t stifle the laugh at all the protests and begging – it was chalked up to a mutual fear of Veeth winning. So long as Ayyonth and Larrikith hadn’t planned some grand game to mess with them all, R’nd was confident his dragon wouldn’t let that happen. With his usual jovial smile that hadn’t been affected by the flightlust just yet, R’nd reached for B’jin as the greenrider moved closer. Confidence radiated from him, as it did Ayyonth, and as R’nd moved forward, Ayyonth took the chance of Larrikith being distracted to make a move for a catch.
Her anger didn’t deter him as their bodies tangled and brushed softly against her mind, Next time, sweet Larrikith. R’nd likes the idea of B’jin and the beach too much for me to let the Little One have his fun this time.
R’nd was momentarily shocked that the flight was over before it really began but grinned as he grabbed B’jin’s hand and pulled the greenrider to him for a celebratory kiss. There was a definite advantage to flights at the beach, he decided moments later when fingers danced down to the waist; far less clothes to worry about.
