Quayleth let out a pleased rumble when the brownrider expressed his gratitude, it was always nice when the riders were cooperative and not letting silly drivel get in the way of things which were actually important. As soon as K'tir mentioned his son, Ojassa immediately tried to scan the candidates looking for him. The gold quietly asked Ghaeth to confirm which one was the boy before directing her rider's attention. Over there, yes that one.
"He's a fine looking boy," she said softly to K'tir. "You must be quite proud of him. I'm sure he's also proud that Ghaeth managed to win." It would be nice if the young man managed to Impress one of his father's dragons progeny, but Ojassa wasn't sure if K'tir was the superstitious sort and would take mentioning it as a sure way to bring bad luck. So she kept the thought to herself for the moment before idly chatting with him about the prospects for the eggs and lunch plans after the Hatching.
A particularly violent wobble sent an egg pitching forward to land sideways in the hot sand, and she went silent as she intently watched to see what would come out of it. Ojassa would have missed the other egg hatching entirely ifBrown 1 hadn't walked right up to the fallen egg to give it a curious sniff. "Oh!" A bit more softly she added, "Well look at that, a lovely little brown."
The egg he sniffed at suddenly exploded in his face and made him hiss asGreen 1 hatched with a squawk, sending her startled brother hopping backwards to bump into another egg which tipped over and began to crack and then split open to reveal Green 2 . Looking a bit embarrassed by all the commotion, Brown 1 scurried off to an older male candidate who seemed like he was close to aging out, shoving his head into the man to try and hide his face.
While he was being led off, the green sisters set off to find their own boys, each heading in a slightly different direction.Green 1 managed to choose her boy rather quickly, but Green 2 seemed almost wobbly and disoriented, her pace was slow and stilted, her path meandering, and once she reached finally reached her destination she fell heavily against a candidate sending them both falling down. She began to mewl pitifully while he desperately tried to soothe her.
Ojassa frowned, wondering if somehow the hatchling had been hurt when her egg had been knocked over. It seemed someone was helping him move the hatchling to the sidelines, but she didn't have time to watch as there were other cracks, and in rapid succession three eggs hatched, producingBlue 1 , Blue 2 , and Green 3 . After a moment of quiet chattering, the group of hatchlings set off together and seemed to almost confer with each other for a moment before splitting off to Impress their boys in separate little clumps of candidates.
"I hope that little green is okay," Ojassa said quietly, frowning as she gave the pair another worried glance before turning her attention to the rest of the eggs.
