Teamwork? Well that actually made sense to Bordtai… though he thought of a similar lesson by the harpers last turn about working as a team with his fellow weyrbrats and Bordtai had keenly disliked it. Mostly because his ‘teammate’ had been one of the many who enjoyed to pick on him and the day and ended with everything going horribly wrong. Even so… Bordtai couldn’t help but wonder if the riders would take the same lesson any better than some of the brat pairings had. Some had done superbly well, while others (such as his own self) had failed miserably with the unwilling partner.
“The Harpers… They taught us about team work last Turn. We had different races and exercises we did.” He said, trying to be helpful to the rider once more as he seemed pleased and even smiling while talking to the brat. How often did Bordtai get a chance to talk to someone who smiled back, even one so small as on this man’s face. “They took a small rope and tied my right foot with another boy’s left. We had to have a ‘three-legged’ race around the hut. If you don’t work together, all you do is fall over.”
