When the Weyrleader agreed with her, not even putting up a protest about her compromise, Jada nearly fell out of her chair. What?! She'd- she'd done it? It wasn't everything that she might have wanted, but it was a compromise within a compromise, and he didn't seem upset about it, but more thoughtful?
"I would love to be one of the people involved in the interviews." It was an immediate answer, and her face lit up at the thought of being involved in something so... important.
She bent her head back to her food as D'ren stretched, and when she heard a crack, she almost jumped. Her head dipped, and she gave him a long glance. "Nothing to pardon you for, Weyrleader. It's sharding hot out there. It makes me miss the North. There was a lake, not far from my station in Ruatha, that was just crisp and cool. I always thought it was too cool, except in the summer. The lake is too far from the Weyr, here. Krypth and I haven't quite made it all the way out there, yet, for a swim."
There was certainly a closer body of water, but Jada much preferred the lake... but a 5 hour walk? Hah!
