She sat back down gratefully, a sigh escaping her. Standing was hard when you hurt. "I...hmm. I've never really considered Standing. I mean, I know I CAN. I'm old enough as a Weyrbrat'n all." She pursed her lips, sleepily rubbing at her eyes but focusing. "But I have started to peek my head into classes," she admitted with a soft, wry grin. "My best friend Quenym wants me to Stand. I probably won't for this next clutch, but maybe down the line."
"If I were to Impress...I don't know. A lot of folks naturally think of us girls as tender flowers, and therefore we should ride Golds. I wouldn't mind a Gold, but I don't think a Gold would be able to handle someone like me. Too curious. Not enough girly flounce. Not enough care for politics or boys." She wrinkled her nose, expressing her displeasure at being one of the soft women she had heard Goldriders could be.
"I love Browns best, but girls don't ride Brown. So unless there's a Gold who can match me better, then...I dunno, I guess I'd be a green rider. Maybe blue, but prolly green. I get along with all dragons, so I wouldn't care too much what it looked like. And I don't even know that a dragon will pick me. I will probably sit in via the Stands and just see how things progress as I get older." She looked down, self conscious of how much she had said. "How'd you Impress Armath?"
