Hello loves! While I haven't been writing, I have been working on updating some issues that have been hanging around on the layout! The Character change box is now at the bottom of the page, beside the up/down arrows! Green and Gold dragon flight dates have been shifted to the bottom of the page, where the (useless!) discord widget was located. Where the dragon flights were in the header, is now replaced by a Monthly Event box! This will be updated at the start of each month, with a fun mini-event you can take part in, if you want to! Thistle!

With Cazan confirmed pregnant, T’ryn was on another solo trip for a Hatching. Then again, other than the first Hatching where Malvayth claimed her, they had only ever been able to attend Telgar’s Hatchings together—and even that was stretching the definition of ‘together’. Out of the three golds, Cazan stood with Malvayth, he and Syrendryth stood beside Bedith, but they could sit together for Neryseth’s clutches. Everything in his life had to be complicated so he couldn’t even have simple dates with his mate.
This was potentially one of the last Hatchings at another Weyr he would be able to attend as well. If S’far wanted to watch one, T’ryn knew he would have to stay behind and have Telgar under his command until the Weyrleader returned. He had actually offered to start that now in case both S’far and K’dar wanted to watch this Hatching but S’far waved them off. T’ryn suspected it was less about letting the brothers watch their siblings take another shot at Impressing and more about avoiding Casa—something he could understand.
T’ryn looked around the cavern as he entered and Syrendryth moved up to a ledge to join the humming. He worried he would arrive late as they had just started bathing the twins after their breakfast and that could be quite the adventure in itself. But it seemed the eggs were content to keep wobbling a little longer and he moved up into the stands after spotting A’tay. He sat in the spot on Zelly’s other side so she was stuck between the brothers and kissed her cheek. “You’re looking a lot better since I last saw you. Your colour’s returning.” Zelana had been so pale and looked like death was seconds away from claiming her that first night but she was too stubborn to give up just yet and her strength showed clearly in her recovery.
After a little more chitchat to catch up with, T’ryn scanned the Candidates and spotted some of their siblings. Orgailian and Zory were missing but he knew they were Standing so likely just running late, which wasn’t unusual. But he did wonder why any of them were out there today when he took in K’tir and Ghaeth. Statistically there wouldn’t be any bronze in the clutch and there wasn’t a gold either so if anyone Impressed, they would be the trend-breaker. Being the first to Impress in their family, alongside Casa, meant he never experienced the added pressure of trying to land on a shiny hide that he knew some of the younger siblings were starting to feel.
“Do you think they’re Standing in the hopes of breaking the pattern and getting a colour of their own or because it’s the home Weyr for three of them and they have no choice?” He could possibly see Orgailian doing something like that but definitely Xendrin since he didn’t even want R’nd’s acknowledgement so he wouldn’t care if he got bronze or not to be like his siblings.
