Turning as T'ryn introduced the giggly Zelly, Kaya found herself smiling as well. These folks were far better at humor than most Holdfolk. Perhaps she should have been born in a Weyr. But with healing brought up, the woman considered the younger with an appraising eye. She had the constitution to make a good one! And it didn't take a lot to see that spark of intelligence in her gaze.
Before Kaya could make any comment on it, more eggs were bursting open.
Hatchings were so exciting! The healer thought it was a shame she'd never had the opportunity to witness one before. The way one of the little boys raged over being mistaken for a girl had her hiding her grin behind her hand. Oh, goodness. She couldn't claim to know one way or another, not at all versed in dragon colors to know it signaled their genders until she overheard others in the Stands talking about it. How interesting! They were a bit like birds then, weren't they? At least some of them. Male birds tended to be quite flashy compared to the females, but dragons seemed to play by a different set of rules considering they were all quite beautiful.
During the next lull, Kaya returned her attention to Zelly. "Oh, I'd be more than happy to write down some information for you!" Undoubtedly, Brax would be rolling his eyes. She was meant to be here on vacation away from her work, yet she was back at it again at the earliest opportunity.
Kaya knocked her shoulder against the man she accompanied. "You won't mind, will you? I'm betting you can fetch a spare journal for me before you wander off on your escapades this evening," she said with a smile, knowing well his appetites didn't stop with her. Kaya didn't mind in the slightest; Brax wasn't hers. They simply scratched each other's itches from time to time.
When more eggs began to hatch, her eyebrows winged up in surprise. Who knew even babies could be so aggressive? Upon seeing a candidate caught up in all of the trouble, Kaya tensed to stand. Instinct called for her to rise to help, her hands clenching tight when she reminded herself this was not her place to do so. Thankfully, other healers were quick to assist the newly Impressed young man, but Kaya found herself watching with worry.
Leaning against Brax, Kaya frowned. "It's not easy to not rush in to help," she admitted, her hands now fiddling with the colorful fabric of her clothes.
