"Harper. An entire family of them, actually. Father, mother, one of my brothers." Jada's smile was wry. "Mum was too busy to tell me about the goings on, so I thought I was dying and ran away.

I am getting starved!" on cue her stomach rumbled, and she sighed, flopping forward dramatically.
She shifted a hair to make room for Ellaira, averting her eyes out of modesty, sliding off the rock to get some of her own sand, scrubbing vigorously at her arms and legs. She did rather want to get clean before they wandered back. She hadn't gotten naked just to sunbathe! She tried to be hasty and thorough, rubbing the sand through her hair and over her skin, even daring to spread a little over her forehead to get at some of the dry patches there.
"Being clean is wonderful." She was 100% in agreement with the other woman on that! "If I was able to Between yet, we could sneak back to the Weyr and get a bath tonight, not tell anyone." Against the rules? Yes. Did she care? Not exactly. "They don't want to risk her yet. But soon, hopefully, she'll be allowed to have some lessons."
