Tsuen was sitting in the middle, more or less, of the Hatching Circuits, and had one looked in, they would have noted that she was in deep discussion with the irritable gold who was presently crouched over the clutch of eighteen she had laid nearly a season before. Her wings were extended and her demeanor may as well have been denoting that Tsuen was about to break the shells of the entire clutch, what with her red-swirling eyes, her lowered head, and her wings unfurled wide.
"But Nirinath, love, I'm sure Ronarth would take perfect care of the eggs. You need food; look at how grey-tinged your hide has become! And I need to do my chores, and set an example, and I don't think I'm going to be dragging wherries back to the Weyr like this." She pointed at her abdomen, though the Queen scarcely batted an eyelash at the gesture. The eggs must not be harmed. If not you or I, then no one. "Nirinath, come now. Act your age. There is nothing planned today with the candidates, so it is a perfect day to go for a flight. And it'll be good to get you off these sands for a bit." Hissing a bit, Nirinath thought it over. She knew Tsuen was right; the eggs had come this far without a glitch, and Ronarth was an attentive guardian of a mate.
Alright. We can go for a little while. But I don't want to be gone long! That ordeal done with, Tsuen asked Nirinath to meet her after a short time, during which she would request Ronarth to come and watch over the eggs and likely go over with him a dozen times or so about exactly how to care for them (despite his having had a part in her previous clutch as well, as he sired it), and, almost uncharacteristically, headed to the Candidate barracks. She had recently done paperwork on a young lady brought to the weyr who specialized in botany, and as she would not be much help to Nirinath hunting, she had planned on picking some plants for dyes while Nirinath did the dirty work. Tsuen had not spoken enough with the Candidates outside of their classes, and figured this would be the perfect chance.
Finding Breccan's door wasn't difficult, and the Weyrwoman knocked solidly at the door, then stood back to wait patiently for the girl to answer.
