Even with his laughing fit, R'nd was still able to dodge the rock tossed at him. That should have been enough to sober him up since his friend was actually trying to cause him harm or at least scar his face--which quite possibly was the greater sin of the two options--but it only lessened the merriment into snickering. It was hard to take Kerrin seriously when he was so riled up thanks to knowing his usual personality and only seeing his goofy expressions instead of the full blown anger. Besides, it really wasn't his fault that he withheld information so the weyrbrat would end up in an embarrassing situation, that was just a part of their relationship. They hung out together in free time, Kerrin helped tend to Ayyonth, and they played pranks on each other that usually resulted in them not talking for a sevenday. It was just his time to get revenge.
When clothing started to be removed, a task that R'nd typically liked overseeing, he knew it meant something not nearly as fun this time with Kerrin's adorable scowl in place and the words flung at him. "But being good-looking gets me out of everything!" He called back just as the younger lad took off running at him. He knew what was coming. Dodging a rock? Sure, he could do that no problem. Dodging Kerrin's flying tackle attack? That was a bit harder if he miss-timed it since Kerrin was quick to change direction and there was always that side of himself that insisted on making sure the kid didn't end up hurting himself if he went tumbling to the hard ground.
This time he didn't get the chance to make a decision on what to do as he saw Ayyonth from out of the corner of his eye stretch out his wings and seem to give a yawn as if he just woke from a nice long nap. It was just enough distraction for R'nd to turn back in time to fling out his arms and try to catch Kerrin as he came flying at him, arms tightening around the smaller body as they were both sent into the water with the bluerider fairing the worst as he had his legs knocked out from under him and a body on top of him to keep him from righting himself or surfacing.
Ayyonth didn't seem quite as concerned as he watched the humans interact. It was nothing new to see them goofing around like that and he knew Kerrin well given the time the boy spent with them since his hatching. In fact Ayyonth felt like he had Impressed two boys! So when Kerrin launched himself at R'nd, he simply chuckled, sending his amusement to both men. That was a good tackle, Kerrin!
Stupid two-timing dragon! was the only thought R'nd aimed back at Ayyonth.
