He was about to comment on the odd emphasis that T'ryn placed on his name but stopped short to just stare at him for a moment then at Mylo to make sure her brother wasn't joking, and then down at Oncaeth who steadily stared right back at him. The bronze hatchling was hungry but patient, and somehow he knew that just as much as he realized he'd known Oncaeth's name without an introduction. "So... I'm L'ri now huh? I guess that's fine. I've certainly been called much worse."
L'ri was still studying the little bronze, trying to sort out the odd sensations he was feeling when he heard Mylorah's gold speak and turned in surprise. Was he one of the people that she claimed Mylo needed? It seemed so as she went on to compliment Oncaeth who returned her chirp and nodded. Of course I have good taste. Gangleri couldn't help but marvel at how much self confidence something so young could have. He was very quickly distracted by the hug from Mylorah and eagerly returned it though he frowned as she apologized. "Why are you sorry? Sure Quil will be a little surprised but..."
He pulled away from the hug to stare down at Oncaeth again, then peered around to get a look at Geric who was definitely not taking things well. "How long... how long until I'm allowed to go home?" His head was spinning again as he barely heard someone give him an answer. "But my wife... she's having... I need to be there when she's giving birth. I need-" To feed me. Your stomach already hurts and it's making mine hurt more and I'm hungry. Oncaeth huffed and gave his bonded an insistent nudge. Gangleri blinked as he took a bucket of meat that was handed to him to hold for the bronze. This wasn't a good time to panic. He had to just think and he'd figure something out, he was sure. You will figure something out, it's part of why I picked you, the bronze said confidently, You get things done.
There was something about the way that the bronze said it, or maybe some other feelings he picked up around the words, that made L'ri almost suspicious. But the dragon, his dragon, was right. He'd figure it out. He just had to remember that. He turned his gaze to T'ryn. "I'll want to speak to Weyrleader S'far as soon as he can meet with me." He didn't expect that it would be an immediate meeting, but he had a feeling he wouldn't have to wait too long either.
Oncaeth let out a chirp as he finished his frantic and sloppy first feeding and L'ri looked down at him. "So... until that meeting happens... Mylo what am I supposed to do now? I'll give you some extra music lessons if you just give me a primer here."
