Now that they were close Arddra could see just how athletic his body was. It occurred to her he was a fine specimen of man and a bronze dragonrider in general was considered a higher rank. A Weyrleader of course was the top position for any dragonrider but that rarely fell to one who wasn't a bronze rider. Twice here a brown dragon caught the senior queen, if she was remembering correctly. Yet even though he was bronze Arddra had a feeling V'riy wasn't looking to be Weyrleader.
"I rather expected I will be getting well and thoroughly wet and it most certainly wouldn't be proper to do so in public without clothing." Arddra remembered the carefree days of her childhood where she and many of Fort's children swam in the lake together sans clothing. But they were children well before the first urges of puberty and their only thought was to have fun swimming and socializing. "It's almost always great weather to be in the water here, except during the storms."
"Why would Ce'lie take away your breakfast?" Arddra frowned. She was one of the very few dragonriders Arddra didn't mind talking to. Yet a part of her was always bothered by the thought Ceilidhe was a dragonrider. Women weren't suppose to Impress any but Gold but apparently some dragonets picked the girls anyway. What Arddra did know bout the greenrider was she wouldn't have stolen somebody's breakfast without good reason. "We could go into the kitchen and grab something to eat, if you are hungry?"
"We best not keep Morith waiting," Arddra smiled and fell in step beside V'riy as they walked to the river. "I am really looking forward to this lesson and having the chance to become closer to you and Morith. I think it would be good to have more dragonriders allowing Candidates, male and female to help them wash their dragons and teach that basic skill."
