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!

B’jin was in one of those not particularly rare, but certainly eye-catching, fantastic moods. The type where he was bouncing on the balls of his feet when he walked, was constantly smiling, and seemed incapable of realising how ridiculous he appeared, bouncing along like a tall, blonde Z’ia. It was one of those days R’nd hated – at least at first – because B’jin woke up in that great mood, and was bouncing around as soon as his eyes were open. He could not help it, and even the dank weather and the constant rain could not keep him down! It was a glorious day, and it was full of glorious opportunities and soon – so soon! – there would be more babies on the Sands and B’jin would have a whole new class to guide through Weyrlinghood and into adulthood and help them get sorted into the best wing for each of them.
And he was so freaking happy about it all, the greenrider was just about bursting at the seams with joy as he splished and splashed from R’nd’s hut to the dining hall, where he made a quick stop in order to pick up something to eat (he’d slept in. Well. Sort of…) before bouncing his way towards the Hatching Sands. Not having bothered to get up herself, Larrikith was quite content to remain curled up in the murky light by R’nd’s hut, her wing extended just enough that she could hide her nose under it. Her tail was less prettily curled up; instead, the green length was flicked casually across Ayyonth, twitching just slightly, almost in time with the green’s deep and definitely asleep breaths.
If B’jin was bothered by the lack of his dragon’s attendance, he gave no such thing away as he paused in the entrance of the Hatching Circuit and looked around for a moment. The majority of the area had flooded not a few days ago, and it had taken a lot of work and effort in order to clear out the water and keep the eggs safe from harm. It had been achieved, though! B’jin was ever so glad about that, too, since his previous class had graduated on the fifteenth – after a long day of helping with flooded buildings. B’jin grimaced for a moment, but the expression vanished swiftly when he spotted Okalinath and Kahleena on the other end of the Sands.
Lifting his right hand after a slight hesitation in which the left was almost raised then froze, B’jin waved excitedly to the enthusiastic goldpair, before bouncing across the sands towards the clutch, grinning excitedly. “Hello ladies!” B’jin smiled cheerfully as he came to a stop, and rocked from heels to balls of his feet and back again. The crook of his left arm, which had been held against his chest the entire process from R’nd’s hut to the final destination of the Sands, was the where the tiny gold firelizard he’d (very accidentally) Impressed ten days ago was curled up, completely asleep and apparently unaware of her surroundings.
“The kids should be here soon!” Which was probably a bit rich, considering the stolen crafters were just about all reaching for thirty, these days, but B’jin had also noticed he had a lot of Weyrbrats that had just aged in filling his ranks, too. It would certainly be and interesting clutch! Flashing another grin at the pair as they settled off to the side, B’jin turned and strode a short distance away from the clutch, and waited quietly for the first group of candidates to arrive.
Hi ho! Off we go!
For OOC purposes, all PC and LPC characters being played at the Touching will have been shuffled into group #1.
Touchings at Second Pass can be a little different to those at other sites. As a reminder, or an informer to those that haven’t participated here before, here are the rules!:
IC Tidbits
+ Bowing to the gold doesn’t happen in our canon; please don’t!
+ Firelizards ARE allowed on the Sands for Krypth and Okalinath’s clutches, given they are under control at all times. Any rowdy flits will be removed.
+ Individuals should be fully dressed, including shoes, but sans excess additives such as jewellery (a rarity) or scarves, flowy tops, and women are encouraged to wear pants for the Touching for safety.
Posting Wise:
+ A candidate may touch ANY egg he desires, and any number, but must touch at least one.
+ A gold candidate may only touch the gold egg.
+ You may only touch One egg per post. (The post should conclude with them placing a hand upon the egg)
+ At the bottom of your post, indicate which egg it is your character Touched.
+ A member of the Team will post a response, after which your character can react and then move off to find a new egg.
Responses:
+ The team will do their best to come up with unique Touching responses for each and every character that Touches an egg. However, please remember there are almost 30 eggs in this clutch, and there are only four of us. We can only guarantee a maximum of 2 completely unique responses for each egg, but again – we’ll do our best to make sure everyone gets one.
Any questions? As at the bottom of your post, or PM Honey Love!
