He wasn’t too surprised to see Rhaedalyn had Impressed the little gold since she seemed to be exactly the type Those That Knew thought was perfect for such a delicate creature. It had still been a bet he wasn’t willing to place with D’hys though since Jisralna and even Mevrit at times seemed to be a good match as well. Then again, Jisralna just had a baby so maybe the dragonets sensed she wasn’t mentally prepared for the task of raising another creature just yet and went for the other pretty girl that seemed far too sweet to be real. Once, he had thought she was playing up the cutesy the attitude but he had quickly learned she was entirely genuine.
With the last shell left behind, Ryvian couldn’t believe he had called it and the clutch, minus the adorable gold, was made up of green. That meant they hadn’t missed out on much, right? “There’s always next time!” He said with his usual chipper voice several minutes later though Ryvian knew his brother would be the only one to know how forced it was. Another Hatching had come to a close and while it produced eight greens and a gold which he honestly had no desire to Impress with, it was still disappointing to not even be looked at again. The one that came racing between Nyvian and him had lifted his hopes for a brief shining moment but it was over before it really began and Nyvian was still Nyvian and he was still Ryvian and neither had to share their head with anyone else. It was horrible to say but he was glad he didn’t Impress alone and Nyvian was with him empty-handed.
Son of a bitch, Kerrin wasn’t though! Ryvian couldn’t believe he had missed that Impression given Kerrin was part of their little weyrbrat crew and they had grown up together. He was as outspoken as Indivara when they left a Hatching solo but there the bastard was with a green dancing around him and… Ryvian tensed as he saw Indivara run toward their friend and practically throw herself at Kerrin for a kiss. Ryvian wasn’t foolish enough to believe he had real feelings for Indivara and knew that while she was one of his closest friends and he was attracted to her, it was only a little crush. He also knew he didn’t have a chance with her but still he tried here and there in case the day of miracles happened and she wanted to sleep with him.
Psh appearing before his face, squealing her outrage at everything that was happening blocked Ryvian’s view of what happened to send Kerrin to the Sands and Indivara running. Did he reject her? Friend or not, he might have to kill Kerrin for that. He reached out and scooped up Psh, cradling her close for a moment as he tracked Indivara’s movements across the Sands for an exit. The gold flitter started squirming around in distress once Indivara was out of sight and Tryst appeared though Ryvian had no idea if Psh summoned him or if his emotions had been too strong for the blue to ignore. Either way, he now had two agitated flitters to contend with, a brother that hadn’t Impressed, a friend that had that seemed overcome with joy and had a bluerider assistant, and another friend that seemed upset. Who did he deal with first? His own disappointment and desire to nap after the long day and to hide away for a little way didn’t even factor into his plans as Ryvian put those of importance before him.
“Ny, you know I’m not abandoning you, right? I’ll be home soon for our traditional drink but I gotta check on Indivara. Congratulate Ker for me, okay?” He was close to hugging his twin but refrained, mostly because Psh was fidgeting and Tryst was encouraging him to hurry up as well. “And… I was foolish earlier. You’re destined for something greater.” Ryvian gave a secretive grin and took off after Indivara. Nyvian was his rock; steady and constant. He, on the other hand, was a bit wild despite his friendliness to nearly everyone. His brother was certain to get a brown, even a bronze! A green could never make the most out of Nyvian’s potential so it was clear now that this clutch wasn’t for either of them and nothing was truly lost.
Now, to find out what sent Indivara running and Ryvian had a good idea about where she might be – though the flitter escort certainly didn’t hurt either.
