O'wain loved rain, especially the warm rains of the south which broke a heatwave. Despite his light colored hair, quite bleached from the sun, his skin handled sun quite well. He would burn time to time but most times he just maintained a nice light golden tan.
After a hearty lunch he was taking his time striding across the way completely unconcerned with being totally drenched. He was also only wearing a pair of shorts and simple sandals. Flipping his wet bangs out of his face he looked up at the rain coming down.
"Beautiful day!" He called out to the sky then opened his mouth to catch the rain.
You really are a wherrybrain. The brown observed. He didn't like the rain and was trying to shelter himself from it as wel as he could under some trees. Unfortunately the usually quite broad and sheltering leaves were heavy with water and every few minutes the weight caused the leaves to bend and dump water all over him. He hissed in irritation each time it happened.
Why are you complaining? You love swimming, it's raining hard enough it's no different than being in the water. O'wain chuckled, taking his attention away from the sky to resume walking.
Before Nishkath could answer a deep vibrating humming started up and the weyr burst into frenzied activity.
It is time, Krypth's clutch begins to hatch! The large brown suddenly pushed his way out of the jungle and sat back on his haunches to add his own humming along with the golds and bronzes.
"A hatching! What a wonderful time for it," O'wain beamed and took a light jog towards the hatching circuit. He then saw a young woman slip in the mud and go skidding along on her rump for a few minutes and laughed. With barely a pause in his own stride he scooped her up and helped her the rest of the way to the hatching grounds. He really didn't care she got mud all over him, the rain will wash it off quick enough.
Once on the grounds he set her down and gave her a wink and made his way over where the spectators were gathering.
"Good luck Candidates!" O'wain called out and winked at the girls and a few of the boys. Many he remembered standing for past clutches, hopefully the longest waiting had their chance. It wasn't a huge clutch but a decent size.
