The thrumming had started a while ago, but N'kal still hadn't dragged him lazy arse off his bed. He could feel Torath's excitement, could hear him humming deep in his chest outside his hut where he was very impatiently waiting for his rider to move. N'kal!!, came a much more excited tone then normal. It made the older rider smirk at his dragons irritation when he refused to do something. Why are you being so stubborn!? Get up!! We are going to miss it!!, Torath practically whined like a hatchling himself and raked his claws lightly against the house, not an idle threat. He would take the roof off to get to his rider if he had to. 'Oh alright alright...I'm coming!', he answered back and he instantly heard the large dragon give a very happy bugal. "Crazy beast..", he mumbled out loud, though he was still smiling. You love me and you know it. 'From first sight.', he answered fondly and moved to get himself properly dressed.
Having finally managed to find a decently new set of clean riding gear, he wasn't about to show up to a hatching looking like some ragged holdless man, he and Torath made their way to the hatching grounds where the entire weyr was, waiting anxiously for the hatching to start. He could feel the excitement and the humming through every fiber of his being, and like with every hatching he ever attended it flooded him with memories of his own unexpected Impression. There was no feeling in the world like it, and no matter how anyone tried, you could not be prepared for it.
Torath had landed a ways away and awkwardly walked the last bit of distance to find a decent spot where he and N'kal could still easily see the candidates. Ohh!!!, Torath said excitedly to him as he let a sharp bugle out. Look N'kal!! There is Bordtai! Do you think he will Impress today? N'kal grinned and patted his neck and looked over at the boy, who looked about as unsure of himself as he probably felt. 'He has a good chance I would say, he's got it in him to be rider I think.', he replied as he watched a few eggs hatch, one with the help of a candidate, sadly the saved hatchling hadn't chosen the one who helped her, but there were still plenty of eggs to go around.
I think he will Impress. Maybe even a bronze!, N'kal chuckled as Torath shifted to sit sideways so that they could both easily see and resumed his deepening humming along with every dragon and firelizard present. 'I Don't see why he shouldn't, a bronze picked this scrawny boy out of the crowd.', N'kal answered, only to receive the excited answer of, Oh the gold hatched!! Oh..she has taken to the young girl with all the hair!, sadly Torath couldn't remember the girls name, and N'kal couldn't either, but he was happy for her just the same. Shards, the only candidates he did know was Bordtai, and that other boy Silute, who he had met briefly a while back. He supposed he was here for them today, otherwise he'd have stayed home and let Torath have the day. He leaned forward a bit to rest against Torath's neck as they both waited for the next set of eggs to hatch. Oh N'kal...the weyr is going to be in an uproar with so many greens hatching. Krypth can't be happy. N'kal snorted softly. 'There are plenty more eggs...hush." He gave Torath's neck a light flick and grinned. Waiting.
