Casa was reassured by the warmth of T’ryn’s hand holding hers; it was firm and secure and real when the world around her felt as stable as smoke and as real as dragon’s eggs at the base of a rainbow. Casa smiled slightly, amused and endeared, when T’ryn had her hover back so he could check that the room was safe before inviting her in. Stepping into the office after T’ryn, Casa looked around as far as her glow stone would let her see – she’d picked it up after dropping it when Thallyath cried out – and she blinked when T’ryn took it and placed it on the desk before taking her hands.
Studying T’ryn’s face in the limited light, Casa sighed softly and smiled at him. Leaning forward, she placed a soft kiss on T’ryn’s cheek. “I like exploring the old Weyrs with you,” she said honestly, smiling gently and settling back into her own personal space. “I feel really jumpy,” Casa admitted, “and Thally wants to go home, but this is fun!” Lifting her gaze from T’ryn’s face, Casa looked around and gestured to the room they were in with their linked hands. “This is exciting, and interesting and I don’t want us to stop just because Thallyath stuck her nose where she shouldn’t have,” Casa grinned, eyes bright with cheek. Thallyath grumbled to herself but didn’t speak out to her rider.
“Do you want to go?” Casa asked, looking at T’ryn intently. “We can, but I don’t want you to think I’m anxious to leave.” She smiled softly, expression gentle and not at all judging her friend if he decided he had had enough of their current adventure. “To be honest,” she said, scrunching her nose up at herself, “I kind of sort of want to see the dragon bones…” She shook her head. “I don’t want to risk it, in case I somehow get Thallyath sick, but T’ryn!” She gasped, leaning forward. “A dragon skeleton!” She didn’t think anyone who hadn’t been alive for the plague or part of the ‘clean up crew’ would have ever seen a dragon’s skeleton before! Not when they vanished between at the end of their time.
“It’s a pity we can’t tell anyone we came here,” she continued, letting go of his hands to pick up her glow stone. “I bet the dragon healer’s could learn a lot from actually seeing a dragon’s skeleton.” Picking up her stone, and T’ryn’s, she handed her friend back his. “What do you want to do?” She asked, leaving the decision in his hands; After all, it had been his idea!
