S'kef took a few moments to soak up the implications. Ravana was horrified because her fire lizard had been playing with Flit, huh? That was spectacular. Not only was it entertaining, but it might even prove useful, at least if he ever got around to nailing down Flit's training. She wasn't as smart as Vixen or even some of the other smaller fire lizards around the Weyr, so training her up to be a little spy was a slow process. She was coming along and was very eager to learn, but it would be a while before she would be the threat that Ravana already seemed to think she was.
The brownrider laughed cruelly. He had a nice smile when he laughed.
"Her name is Flit, and you're not in trouble," he said with amusement. Any passer-by would have thought he was having a friendly laugh with the woman. Flit let out a happy chirp, sensing her bonded's unexpected approval and darting off, nudging Stubborn and chirping, eager to play. S'kef watched her for a moment, his smirk lingering, before he turned his eyes back on the greenrider.
"Just don't overfeed her," he warned. "Of teach her bad manners." He didn't have to add in 'don't hurt her'. It would take a fool to try and hurt his little girl. He hadn't been sure about Flit at first, but now she was safely situated just beneath Tyrrisath and J'ver on S'kef's list of people (and critters) not to fuck with. Ravana seemed vulnerable to sentimentality anyhow, and just look how much the little gold liked Flit! How could anyone not like Flit? Even S'kef liked her.
