Jada glanced back at the other girl, blinking owlishly at Indivara. "I can only imagine the personalities on that one in the center then," she said finally. "It was loud and noisy, unrelenting sound. Like a naughty child, beating on drums and simply not stopping. Rather like some of your classmates." Jada grinned, tapping her hand on a desk as she went by. "The other one was just lovely! So warm and it just seemed so gentle. I can't imagine that the ones I Touched could get much more distinct." Watching the younger girl was like trying to guess what her older sister had been thinking. Some of her expressions were classic, easy to guess at, but others... Not so easy. It made the girl a challenge, and Jada didn't mind that at all. So long as it was a pleasant challenge!
Indivara's story piqued her interest, and Jada took a seat on the edge of one of the crude wooden desks, giving her full attention to the younger woman. "Who is your mother?" she asked, interested. With no father and a Rider's duties, Indivara and her mother must have an interesting relationship. Families didn't seem quite the same as back in the North, but from what she understood, the Weyr had always been a little different. Something else that the girl said clicked just then, and amber eyes widened. "Wait- your mother is how old? And live to a hundred turns?!" That was incredible! Jada leaned in towards the girl. "That is super neat. Who is the oldest person here? Do you know?"
She had never thought about it, before, but there were people here who were older and healthier than their Northern peers. It could be diet, or the hard work? But she had never even dreamed that it could be the dragons!
"What do I want to Impress?" It was a surprising question, one that Jada hadn't much thought about. "I hadn't thought my wants would have to much to do with it." her lips twitched. "Don't the dragons pick what they want to Impress?"
