T’ryn wasn’t sure what surprised him more—that Casa didn’t laugh at him or that she admitted that she was also lacking in the flight count. He wouldn’t have said it aloud, but he would have bet she wasn’t a virgin. She was pretty and got along with everyone, so it stood to reason that she had had at least one boyfriend and got a bit intimate with him. Then again, maybe she had had boyfriends but just didn’t see the interest in flights.
Syrendryth sighed and replied dryly to T’ryn’s internal babbling,I don’t know… I think she’s still flighty. T’ryn bit his lower lip to keep from laughing and drawing attention to the judgemental comments of his dragon.
Thankfully, Casa didn’t seem to notice and took an interest in his aunt, which T’ryn gladly latched onto in a bid to help change the subject. “I do! She’s R’nd’s older sister and she’s amazing. She’s so cool and I can see why my dad idolizes her and I think even B’jin does too,” T’ryn laughed softly as he thought about the way the greenrider seemed to hang onto her every word and indulged her with stories and well-timed questions. “I have some cousins through her as well but I’m not as fond of them. It’s also where my youngest half-brother lives. R’nd arranged for Benden and his mom to stay with Aunt Eridella. Volfetti never took to the Weyr life,” and apparently her family from before being kidnapped to the South had moved on without her and she had nowhere else to go. He was so proud of the family he came from with their desire to always help everyone they could.
Then again, “I also have an uncle. He’s the lord of the family sea hold now. We don’t see him much since he’s not a fan of dragonriders and dad doesn’t seem to be a huge fan of his either. It’s a gorgeous place though! It must have been hard for dad to give it up but I can totally understand the allure of dragons.” A wistful look appeared as T’ryn thought about the seaside home, and wondered, not for the first time, what it would have been like to grow up in such a place.
“Maybe I can take you to both sometime! My aunt would love to meet you and we could just fly over my uncle’s, since I think it’s prettier from above anyway.”
