Rhaedalyn knew R’nya spoke the truth. She had seen such reactions in the Weyr herself over the turns. After all, she loved gossip and was almost ashamed to say how deep her nose could be in the business of others when she was caught up in some of the juicier tales. It was only a matter of time before everyone found something else to talk about and if she didn’t feed them anything else with the way she acted, she’d be left alone all the quicker. In the end, the event hadn’t been too horrible either. R’nya was her friend and he had been wonderful and considerate of her. He didn’t demand anything of her then and he wasn’t now either. They were still friends and belonged to themselves and not each other. She could go back to courtship – which was how she saw her time with the bluerider – with Z’ia and the guilt wouldn’t be there as a roadblock.
The young lady looked up with a smile but suddenly frowned in confusion when she saw eyebrows furrowing. The chance to ask what was wrong or to wonder if all of her thoughts were wrong was never given as words were whispered and a kiss given. “Odd,” Rhaedalyn commented on the breath of a whisper as she watched R’nya nearly run away. What had gotten into the bronzerider to leave him so out of sorts? He never spoke in contradictions or slang, and she had never heard R’nya give Xyreith a nickname before. It was truly odd to hear all of those words out of his mouth.
It was tempting to go after him and see what was wrong and find out if she could help but Rhaedalyn stayed where she was. There was the chance that she had done something wrong and seeking him out wouldn’t help but if she gave chase, it’d only make for more rumours spreading about them. She had just decided not to assist those! So she didn’t give chase but smiled at the bronzerider. She’d definitely ask him about it later or at least lightly tease him about the words. Did he always speak like that when he was alone and he put on an act of proper speech when near his Golden Girls? It was a mystery and Rhaedalyn knew she’d think about it a lot during the coming days, making up theories and having a giggle with Aradissicath.
For now, she wanted to find Z’ia and satisfy her curiosity that he wasn’t mad over the flight. It was something they would have to deal with if they were to have a relationship. As much as she loved Aveleth, he was still blue and didn’t stand much a chance in winning Aradissicath’s flights. It wouldn’t matter; R’nya may have won her in a flight but Z’ia owned her heart.
