Ayyonth, being the dragon that he was, purposely let the girl sweat it out and fret over why he wasn’t answering right away. He liked her, which was why he was lightly teasing her in some way. R’nd would always be his favourite to pick on and B’jin was coming in as a close second nowadays but Casa had earned her place, at least for the day, on his list. Once he felt her nervousness, the blue finally gave in and nodded at her. I wouldn’t have taken such a liking to you if I thought you wouldn’t get along with a dragon or Impress one. He felt that was pretty obvious but shared the tidbit of information all the same before doing another circular lap around their play area.
R’nd eyed his towel on the rock not too far away from where he was wading in the water but decided he had some more time to spend at the lake. It wasn’t often Ayyonth got to spend time with the younger weyrbrats and this one seemed to be of particular interest. Naturally R’nd could only hope that meant Ayyonth had some searcher in him after all. “Ayyonth knew since Impressing me that Kerrin would Impress as well,” he added to the conversation. Given the way his blue and his friend got along, they always joked Ayyonth Impressed R’nd to gain access to Kerrin who wasn’t allowed to Stand at that hatching. “When he didn’t Impress at the last couple of clutches, Ayyonth assured him it was because the dragons weren’t good enough for Kerrin but he’d have his dragon soon. He recently Impressed Ajaaskath, remember.”
It was kind of adorable to see the younger ‘brats getting nervous over the prospect of Standing and maybe having their own dragon. R’nd had seen it as a chance to escape a life in the seacraft and earn more freedom and he loved every minute of it, even if they were in seclusion, hidden away from everyone they knew. So many Casa’s age saw it as their birthright or a natural fact of life but there was still a lot of fear in them. Whether it was not being good enough to Impress or to take care of the dragonet was hard to say. But the girl seemed bright and willing to learn so she’d do just fine.
