New here? Oh, in the North. That made more sense than... R'dal didn't know--the planet? He bit his lip to keep from giggling at the idea that he was a visitor from space, maybe sent ahead before the Red Star to scope out the land. That would be a fun story to write! He'd have to remember the idea for later, for now, he had Aederyn whom seemed just as curious about him as he was about her.
"Yep! Well, kind of. It's been about five years since we returned but I don't get out of the Weyr much and it's usually only to the major Holds for a gather or something." He paused, glancing up as he thought about runners and just Northern things in general, then gave a little shrug. "I guess I could have seen a runner before, within a Hold, before they took off but never out in the wild like this. So it's pretty exciting."
R'dal paused in his babbling to watch Edath--the blue seeming to be just as interested in Aederyn as he was, tilting his head this way and that as he watched her. It reminded him oddly of... oh! Do you think she could be a good Candidate? R'dal asked, his thoughts just as excited at the prospect as he currently was speaking with the woman. Perhaps, but I don't think it's what she would want just yet. She's very dedicated to her craft. R'dal gave a nod of understanding to Edath and decided it was best not to tell Aederyn about their conversation, especially since they weren't out on an official Search.
So he focused back on her answer that strongly affirmed she was not a Lady. "Oh good! I've been told I should be careful when meeting new people and sometimes Lords and Ladies can be really mean or sneaky and use you. So I had to make sure." R'dal heard Edath sigh through their bond but ignored the dragon that didn't comment further. He was just doing what F'drel told him to do by being careful!
"Is it against the rules if we offer you a ride to wherever station...to where you're going? I don't want to make you late and we can get something to eat after." R'dal smiled brightly at the idea, hoping she would accept. She was friendly, super cool, and not evil, so he wanted to know more about her.
