“I’m seen only when I want to be seen,” J’ver countered casually as he sank a bit further into the hot water until his shoulders were covered. A good soak always made him feel better. Depending on the company while soaking could often make it even better. Having played his games for as long as he had, J’ver already had a sense of the young man in that he was holder-bred and would hold certain views but it didn’t hurt to still feel him out for more political angles that could come in handy down the line.
“I’m J’ver. While I may not be the Weyrsecond, I hold far more sway than him with S’kef, our current Weyrleader.” In other words, J’ver mentally added, it was best to stay on his good side. He straightened up once again to lean his forearms back on the pool’s edge, affecting a casual stance with the weyrling that showed he was both relaxed and meant no harm; nor did he perceive any from the other man. “I came down to check on the wing left in charge here and to see how our new dragonriders are settling in after Impressing.”
He watched for a moment the way the man attentively scrubbed at his dragonet and nodded in approval. “I see you are taking to it rather well. Your bronze seems rather content.”
