Z'rin felt a bit guilty.
He thought he was a good friend, always there when he was needed and did his best to be fun and a good sport when hanging out with someone. But since moving to Ista and becoming mates with N'mor, he had a feeling he had neglected some people as he basked in how lucky he was to have such a wonderful man love him. To be fair, one of the friends he hadn't seen in a while had gone into labour early and while he wanted to rush there and see Indivara, he also knew everyone else would have and she'd be overwhelmed and fed up with people.
So he had waited a few weeks to give her time to recover from everything. R'vi hadn't spared any details on the pain and blood but promised Indivara was still just as prickly as she always was, even more so now. She either had already gone back to her weyrling class or would be soon; he couldn't remember the timeframe R'vi had mentioned, but Z'rin felt it was a safe time for a visit, a quick one if nothing else.
After convincing N'mor he wouldn't drown in a bath alone and without helpful wandering hands to keep him above water, Z'rin bathed, dressed, kissed his mate a bit longer than was needed, and mounted up for a trip to Telgar. He stopped at the Hold first, wanting to find a gift for Indivara. He ended up with a boquet of flowers he didn't know the name of reminded him of Indivara. They were a bit wild looking but also somehow tamed with their subdued colours. That was a good start but he wanted something else to show he missed her and was glad she was safe. A vendor from some small Hold in the area had travelled to the major Hold to sell the chocolates he made and Z'rin knew that was what he wanted to get her and a small box of bite-sized pieces was purchased. He then purchased a second one to bring back to N'mor as a treat for them that night.
Veeth and Venseth were both out on their ledge when Varralath appeared above the Weyr. A quick exchange between the dragons confirmed both of their riders were home and Veeth moved inside to give the larger blue more space to land and join them. He let the dragons to mingle and do whatever it was pestering blues did when they got together and he made his way inside. He waited a moment to let his eyes adjust to the slightly darker interior and waited just on the edge of the room to make his presence fully known, though a dragon likely already spilled the beans.
"Hey! Look who's back from his own self-absorbed bubble to check in on his favourite non-mama!" Z'rin grinned as he mocked them both. It wasn't the first time he called Indivara that and had explained it was because she'd given birth but didn't raise the child in any way that resembled being a mother. It hadn't really been an insult, just an odd nickname he'd come up with on the spot for his friend. He wasn't going to judge; just because he had claimed his daughter and did his best trying to raise her didn't mean everyone was cut out for that job. He was actually glad Indivara did give her daughters to Rhaedalyn. The Weyrwoman was always glowing when she had her kids near her so the gesture benefited multiple people.
