Dusting her work-cramped hands on her trousers, Aederyn studied her first bit of leather handiwork. A part of her marveled at how Cazan for the long hours spent doing such tedius, fine work. Just the little bit she’d done was going to have her hands sore for a day ,at least.
The pouch wasn’t perfect, but it was functional. She’d have to tweak a few things. The thought of starting one for her brother and his firelizard Handsome made her smile despite the sore, stiff hands. It would give her a chance to try and improve the design. Faranth knew when she’d see him again, so she’d have the time.
“Well, thank you so much, you have been a great instructor. I’ll be happy to stop by whenever I can to help cut, dye, oil…or whatever else this requires that I don’t know about yet.”
Rudi whistled and flitted around the queen once more before alighting on Aederyn’s shoulder, and with that, she saw herself to the stairs and back down to the Weyr bowl. The work had been more tiring than she’d thought, and she was glad to collapse back into her bed at the Candidates’ dorm.
Well, Cazan was nice enough. Straightforward. Helpful, and willing to teach. And Mal was a cheerful thing. Rudi certainly liked her. She wasn’t quite sure where this working partnership might go or what skills she’d be able to retain, but she was hopeful, at least. It was something. And progress was progress. She ran Rudi’s new accessory through her fingers, already thinking of how to improve and where she might be able to add little details that Alekse would appreciate. Work for another day.
