The bronzerider chose to make no scene nor comment on the girls twitching and flinching as he handled her face gently. Getting upset with the girl would do no one any good, and R'nya was well aware that it was neither her fault, nor him specifically that was the cause of such reactions. She couldn't help it, and getting upset with her for it would only encourage the reaction to become a part of their interactions. That would not do at all! R'nya's expression was gentle as he turned to look back up at the sky. "Good." There wasn't really anything more to say on that particular portion of the topic. The fact that it shouldn't happen in the first place, let alone happen again, was left alone for the time being. R'nya would get to that, later, and the other person in the conversation wouldn't be the young woman sitting beside him.
"My dear," R'nya turned to look at Ameris, one eyebrow arching slightly as he studied the girls face with just a hint of dark amusement. "I would never endanger you." When he sought out the brown rider, R'nya would make sure the bastard never hit anyone ever again, whether he did so by breaking the man's bones, or getting Xyreith to simply drop the man between. It wasn't all that complicated to the bronzerider, and his simple black and white emphasis was likely why he was less reluctant to work with S'kef, and the Weyrleader's often blunt methods of dealing with things - even if the Weyr at large were not yet aware of how many steps S'kef had gone to to secure his position.
Considering that part of the conversation well and done, and content for the moment that Ameris would come to him if such an event repeated itself, R'nya placed Mud on his shoulder (not really expecting the little critter to stay there) before he pulled his knees in, and stood up. Blue eyes glittering, R'nya offered Ameris his hand. "Come! Xyreith is in need of a exercise!" Winking at the girl, R'nya watched as Xyreith picked himself up lazily and slipped back into the water, submerging all but one glaring eye.
I am not a pony to take for rides!
"Nonsense," R'nya snorted, well aware that Ameris would not have heard a word of what his dragon had said. "Now come here. The girl needs some entertainment."I am not for entertainment purposes. "I am quite sure you are. You were born entertaining, you will die entertaining. Today you will entertain Ameris. Come here."
Xyreith made a great show of huffing and puffing as he sulked and climbed out of the water, eyes swirling an odd combination of entertained and annoyed as he stopped before the two humans. R'nya's eyebrows arched up, in time to have Xyreith open his jaw directly over R'nya's head, emptying rather a lot of water there. The bronzeriders expression didn't so much as twitch as he stared up at his dragon.Is she entertained, Sir? the dragon's words oozed innocence.
"Oh, I am quite sure she is." R'nya's oozed future revenge.
Xyreith doesn't talk to anyone but R'nya, but Ren tried to make sure Ameris wasn't totally in the dark xD
Lol, oops. I still had Ren taking his shoes off. I was originally going to have him demand her help bathe Xyreith, but he didn't brink dragon bath-time stuff xD
