"Oh, I think he came from another Weyr," Johar said. "But he has blonde, blonde hair, and blue, blue eyes, and this voice that's really good at enunciation so I bet he has harper training!" That seemed exciting to her because she came from a harper background but this rider seemed older than her so he hadn't been at the Hall with her (or maybe he _wasn't_ a harper and now she _really_ wanted to know more about him) so that was a mystery. "I'll remember his name eventually, I'm sure. I'm terrible with names!"
Who are we talking about? Cimbreth asked, surfacing from the water, but only her head, making her look like some menacing beast from the depths.
No one, Johar lied. Honestly, she purposefully hadn't caught the bluerider's name, or his dragon, because she was shy. But she didn't want Cimbreth poking around and finding out! Yet.
At the mention of a Touching, Johar's eyes lit up. "Is this...this is your first Hatching as Weyrlingmaster staff, right? Oh, this'll be so exciting! You're going to be up to your ears in cuddling dragons. And I bet they'll just love playing in the sand with Niath. Are you excited? Nervous?"
While she waited for Tala to respond, Johar tugged at a strand of her hair, wrapping it around her index fingers repeatedly, an excited grin on her face.
