What was with all that humming? At first Katiryn thought her dream had shifted to a Hatching which meant a possible nightmare was incoming but this one didn’t feel the same. It felt much more real. Until she realised it was real.
“Shit! Oh shit!” She sat up with a start, frantically looking around the unfamiliar room she was in and then recalling she had decided to help R’dare keep his bed warm that night. She smacked him on the arm to help get him moving since he seemed to be doing a better job of ignoring the hums. Once he seemed to be awake, Katiryn bolted from the bed and started tossing her clothes back on.
“I have to go change! What if I’m late?” Would they keep her from entering if she didn’t get there along with everyone else? Stupid R’dare and his stupid smile and his stupidly hot body and his stupidly up high weyr… Still, she gave him a kiss on his cheek once she was dressed and then ran out the door.
She kept up that pace all the way down to the Candidate dorms and somehow managed to not die from the exertion as she went flying into her little shared room. She stripped and tossed on the ugly and uncomfortable robe in record time but her hair was a bit of a wild mess and that took longer than she wanted to spend on it as she fought some tangles. Eventually she won and her hair was braided back and she gave her robe a quick smoothing down of her hands before finally taking a deep breath to relax.
She wasn’t late and she looked as presentable as the robe would allow her to be. Smile in place, Katiryn left the area with a group of girls and she fell into an easy conversation of excitement and gossip over why the eggs were already wiggling away and who would Impress first or at all. It helped steady her nerves, as did her temporary roommate asking her where she had been all night. Katiryn only smiled and played up being innocent as she sauntered away with a grin to go join the other girls that were as set on gold as she was.
