Hello loves! While I haven't been writing, I have been working on updating some issues that have been hanging around on the layout! The Character change box is now at the bottom of the page, beside the up/down arrows! Green and Gold dragon flight dates have been shifted to the bottom of the page, where the (useless!) discord widget was located. Where the dragon flights were in the header, is now replaced by a Monthly Event box! This will be updated at the start of each month, with a fun mini-event you can take part in, if you want to! Thistle!

It was, without question, the second most event which had candidates either excited, or ruffling unhappy feathers. B’jin was a little on both sides of the fence about the whole thing, but in the end, the Hatching was literally days away, and a lot of his candidates were still far too skitterish about the upcoming event. Oh, there were some – such as those who were weyr bred – that were looking forward to it with the self-assured confidence of those positive they were going to Impress. But most of them, notably those that had been stolen, where far less than pleased, and even as B’jin waited for them together on the edge of the Hatching grounds, could see them shifting uncomfortably. It could have been the heat of the sands, but they hadn’t made it onto them yet.
“Alright, guys.” B’jin called their attention, watching with a slight frown as eyes turned to him and firelizards settled. He still didn’t like the little beasts, it was quite probable he never would since he never had, but the advancement of the class as far as taking care of the little creatures had made them well worth the occasional hassle they could cause. Most of them were even coming along decently with their training. Cracked hides were minimal, and happy green eyes were at a maximum. B’jin was pleased, even if he would always remain slightly stiff and standoffish when dealing with them. “You are the first group on the Sands. Jada has allowed your Firelizards to accompany you, so long as you keep them under control.”
A pause as he eyed those with the little beasts meaningfully, before nodding. “You are all adults, so have a little dignity and respect for each other and the eggs. Be gentle, and don’t fight. You are all required to Touch one egg. Those that are so interested can do two, three or all of them. You have however long this will take. Ignore your classmates that are skulking around, and focus on your task.” B’jin had already seen several of the gold candidates join Jada, and those not put in the first group had been hovering around too. They’d get their turn in the following couple of days, but there were too many candidates to shove them all on at once.
“In you go,” B’jin waves his hand, stepping aside and watching them file in. Sighing, the greenrider strode in after them, crossing his arms over his chest and watching mildly. Hopefully some of the eggs would result in interesting effects on the kids. Please? Larrikith laughed.
