Katiryn strode with purpose into the Hatching grounds, her head held high and a smile on her face. Nothing was going to keep her down that day, damn it! Yes, she still vividly recalled the horrible Touching and the horrible Hatchings but they were behind her and this was a new year and new clutch. She was determined to keep her attitude positive and to help others with theirs. Nothing good came from holding onto the bad for too long.
But she stopped suddenly as she saw Rhaedalyn and Aradissicath. Oh, how she adored the pair! She almost wished they had moved to Fort so she could be around her role model more regularly. Rhaedalyn was a holder but had adapted so well in Katila and even in her dorkier times, she still had a grace to her that young Katiryn wished to have. Now, she was a strong and beautiful woman that was Weyrwoman to boot! How could she not want to be Rhaedalyn? Not to mention the woman had her perfect mate and a cute family. Katiryn didn’t think she was ready for all of that just yet but it was a dream for down the line.
Someone elbowed her gently and Katiryn stumbled a little and glared at the culprit only to see Dareji smiling back and Katiryn rolled her eyes and smiled in return. Yeah, so she had been gawking and practically drooling over Rhaedalyn, but who wouldn’t be? With a sigh, she moved along with the group and waited as the Weyrwoman addressed them, showing her kindness.
When they were allowed to go to the eggs, Katiryn bolted right for the golds. She saw some of the girls go to the other eggs first, and she was glad they had the chance to now, but she only had eyes on gold. Nothing against green or blue! But gold just matched her dream and ambitions so she had to stack her chances where she could.
She didn’t have long to wait for one of the eggs, but when it was her turn, Katiryn took a moment, took a few breaths, thought of all her goals and happy thoughts in general, and placed a hand on the smooth surface.
Gold 2.
