She wasn't normally shy, usually got right into the middle of everything, but August was still feeling out the weyr. At home, she'd dive right in and push people out of the way but there was a certain amount of reverence that was necessary at a touching she'd found. Being rough and rowdy around the eggs was a good way to get banned or even harmed. This was the first clutch she was going to be standing for at Fort, the rest had been at the other weyrs and decidedly different. This one was home, for all that she'd been born at a hold, but this was Fort and it was the weyrwoman's gold. Aradissicath was a little intimidating and August studied her for a moment. The gold was large, much larger than a couple of the others she'd seen but she stood a little straighter as she made her way towards the eggs.
She'd been told she needed to touch the gold egg while she was at Telgar and leave the others alone but she already knew she'd sneak a touch or two of the other ones. She'd seen the girls that impressed green and already had ideas and thoughts. Why shouldn't she impress a green? It was foolish to waste a girl on only the golds when there would be twice as many greens as golds. What would happen if she ignored a green egg and the baby betweened because it could find her? That would be silly and she was glad Fort and Ista didn't think the way Telgar did.
She sniffed quietly as she moved towards the eggs.
Two was interesting and from what she understood the first for Aradissicath. She always thought golds only had one gold egg, but she really didn't know. She'd never been told much of anything about dragons until she came to Fort for the first time. Scarred and slender hand reached out to touch the gold closest to her, eye watching out for Aradissicath and was slightly embarrassed at the terrible sight of her hands. Nicks and cuts and even now a bandage on the finger she'd cut the other day. She grimaced slightly but didn't remove her hand.
