Eating lightly as M'gnum spoke she avoided his gaze in favor of looking down at her plate. She had no issue with seeing the older bronzerider and being somewhat affectionate with him even in public. But to acknowledge they were seeing eachother by going as a couple to dinner with another couple? She had thought that M'gnum would be uneasy with it - after all she was just a greenrider and he was aspiring to be Weyrleader. Not to mention the pair had not really defined their relationship just yet - they got along well enough (most of the time) and she did like him...
Are you ashamed I am no Gold? Do you feel less worthy of Higginth's because you are not a Goldrider? Higginth's does not seem to mind it, as much as he is around.
An inward groan, Of course I am not ashamed, you are the loveliest Green. I just know typically Bronzes and Golds go together...
To mate and clutch, yes. Higginith and I will never clutch but that does not mean you and Higginith's cannot, 'elle-mine.
Her face was quick to turn a lovely shade of crimson at her Green's blunt suggestion she and M'gnum should have a child. Finally she decided she was being ridiculous and looked up at the bronzerider, "That sounds lovely, as long as you are alright with it of course."

Whatever reaction he had expected from his outburst of anger - it was not this. He winced as she gripped his fingers and pushed them backwards, forcing him to relinquish his grip on her arm. Then she was in his face spitting words at him in such a hateful tone part of him wanted to shrink away, but he managed to stand still.
The other bluerider said her piece and was walking off again. T'vis could think of a million things to say in response to her claim that you could only be a rider or have a life but could not do both. In the back of his mind he wanted to scream at her and tell her that because of her attitude it was unlikely ANYONE in the Weyr would truly ever watch her back - if they did it would be due to duty. Friendships and loyalty could speak volumes more than mere duty - friends fought with a fierceness duty could never inspire in them when another friend was in danger. Didn't she know that? Didn't she see that she was ultimately just hurting herself in the long run? And to claim that no one in the Weyr cared apart from her! Ugh!
Brooding over the inner storm her words had forced to the forefront of his mind he kicked a rock in the direction she had stalked off in. Detrith circled about in the sky before coming to land not far off. Despite not having his riding leathers on or his riding gear, T'vis approached his blue and used the offered foreleg to boost himself up. A leg slid over his dragon's back in practiced grace as he settled his body as close to the blue as possible. Detrith's wings made a powerful stroke and pushed the pair into the air, Helios stayed sitting on the fence nearly purring at the green who held his attention.

Pan ripped apart the meatroll before beginning to devour it, while Roselle was content to just pick apart her plate little by little. A meatroll here. Some more greens. Some of the sweet tart that M'gnum had been kind enough to get for her. Another sip of klah. She was in no hurry to eat, unlike Pan.
After taking another sip of her klah she looked at the bronzerider and shook her head, "I'm not sure. Women are crazy creatures, that's for sure. Are you going to spend all afternoon talking about her? I thought once I chased her off you would be mine." There was a slight hint of harshness in the greenrider's voice, perhaps some annoyance as well. She didn't like knowing his thoughts were lingering on the young blonde - nor did she like acknowledging the fact that the girl was attractive. And young, which while Roselle was not old she definitely no longer considered herself 'young' anymore either.

The other bluerider gave literally no readable reaction to his rejection. She didn't even question it, leaving T'vis standing there rather infuriated as she turned on her heel to walk away. He stood there for awhile before he broke into a sprint after her, grabbing her shoulder once he had caught up to her and turning her to face him.
"So then are you going to offer up your services to every member in the Wing then? Is that all you're good for? Fighting and fucking? You know why you make me uneasy? It isn't because I am distractingly attracted to you. It is because you have no personality. You have nothing that makes you you. People rush away when you approach or get that look in their eye, you know the one I am talking about, because you are such a sharding bore. The world isn't at war anymore Lilu, and Thread does not fall every day. People aren't made to be mindless fighting machines. You have no emotion in you unless you are not getting your way. That is why you make me uneasy. If you had any kind of a personality then I would have said yes to the offer of sleeping with you in a second! But you don't. You are hardly even a person."
He wasn't sure what exactly had caused the outburst - perhaps it was the fact that Detrith had a strong disliking of Venideth and it was fueling his already present annoyance. Perhaps it was Apima's jealousy of T'vis' attention towards Lilu. Perhaps it was the fact that Helios was so good with the other gender and he absolutely failed with them - the conversation with Lilu had been the closest he'd gotten to a woman since he came to the Weyr, Apima's run not withstanding. Whatever it was that had caused it, he wasn't exactly sorry - though he fully expected a violent outburst from the other rider.

Roselle couldn't help but smile as she saw the bronzerider approach once more and set down her plate of food before her. Picking up a meatroll she was about to offer it to Pan when M'gnum noticed him and offered a greeting. Pan tilted his head first one way then the other before promptly giving a light bite to the man's finger. Then his attention was on Roselle and she chuckled as she gave him the meatroll.
"No hard feelings, but he was waiting for food. You weren't food." Her amusement was clear in her voice as she spoke before nodding to the plate in front of her, "Thank you."
With that she dug in, using her fork to stab at some of the greens before taking a bite.

"Well perhaps then, I do not wish to know." Two could play at this little game of his, and she gave a shrug as her face fell into that of disinterest. Only her eyes gave her away as the corners of them crinkled just slightly and seemed to laugh.
After a few moments of being as serious as she could muster the practiced stoic face broke back into a smile as she leans forward to kiss him again gently. "If they are up to no good and you know all about it, doesn't that make you an accessory to their naughtiness? Doesn't that mean you'll be in just as much trouble when we get home?" Her voice was low, lips just inches from his as she ran her hand from his hip down his thigh slowly then back up again.
She gave no thought to the fact they were out in the open where any one could happen upon them acting like giggling teenagers. She paid no mind to the herdbeasts on the other side of the fence as they milled about, most of them settling down for the evening. She hardly noticed that the light had all but faded from the sky. She was with M'ta, and he was all that mattered. She was with M'ta and could drop the serious face she often wore, because with him there were no walls or masks to hide behind. Leaning into his arms she felt Azrain nudge at her leg, "I think we should head home, it seems someone is ready for a late dinner."

T'vis watched with little to no reaction as she caught the shell then launched it at a tree. Just like a girl to toss away a gift, even if it was something silly and meaningless. Geez. His gaze had followed the shell and stayed lingering on the tree longer than necessary, if only to avoid Lilu's gaze. He was fine with the lull in conversation and was about to dismiss himself as Detrith had finished his meal and taken to the skies once more - when Lilu spoke up.
Every muscle in his body froze. He was certain even that his heart may have stopped for a brief second or two. Had she - did she -... The bluerider was having a hard time bringing his mind to wrap around the words she had just said. A part of him understood how she had come to such a conclusion where offering to sleep with him made sense. Another part of him was eager to say 'yes' - even if she was a detached hard ass she was still hot. Yet another part of him reminded him that it was not uncommon, they were riders. No one expected him to keep it in his pants all the time.
"N-No... No thank you." The words stammered from his mouth even before he managed to come to a conscious decision on how he was going to react. A war of conflicting thoughts and emotions waged through him and the color of his cheeks probably paled a few shades as he stood there very taken aback.

"Some meatrolls would be nice. I'd also welcome some greenery." Lips curl in a light smile at the kiss to her hand. "Something sweet would be nice too. Just bring me a little of everything?"
She would normally insist that she could get her own food, she wasn't a cripple after all, but sometimes she enjoyed the pampering that the bronzerider insisted on providing. Sometimes she was content to sit back and let him treat her like a lady - even if she didn't see herself as one. It was... nice. Still she hoped he didn't get too used to it as she was far from being a delicate little flower for him to nuture.
Releasing M'gnum's hand she watched as he stood and headed to fetch them food, just as Pan circled into view in the rafters. Narrowing her eyes she made a clicking noise and the razorclaw dove down to land on the table's ledge. Reaching out she pet the avian lightly, watching as he ruffled his feathers before standing straight and tilting his head at her. "I'll have food for you in a moment, little piggy."

The shell fell into his palm as he felt Lilu's cold eyes came to rest upon him and once again T'vis shifted around uneasily. Looking at the other bluerider he sighed softly, "Helios intended me to give it to you. Apparently he thinks you're as easy to win over as a firelizard or 'mandyr is." He tossed the shell to the girl, who he assumed would catch it - after all she trained all the time and was likely to have quick reflexes due to it.
"I have no such delusions, however." He was quick to let that be known, least she get overly offended - as women tend to do - and overreact. "Not, that I am in the mind to attempt to win you over."
Even Detrith cringed inside his mind as His spoke. Helios chittered at T'vis then turned all of his attention back on the green, nuzzling her and churring softly of his admiration for her great beauty and grace.

A low gasp sounds from the greenrider as his teeth come down on her neck, her body shivering from the attention. Her hand slides back from his cheek to his hair and her fingers tease through those locks as she tries to ignore the butterflies in her stomach. He was the only man who had ever made her feel such a way, her whole body was tingling. Gently biting on her bottom lip she watched as he made a show of being thoughtful, smiling as he finally spoke.
"I am an amazing actress, I'll have you know!" Her free hand squeezed at his hip as she fake scowled for a mere moment. "Besides, what is it they have planned that 'outraged' would be a proper response?" There was worry in her voice, but just a tinge.

"Embarrassed? No, though I thought you might be. I know how prim and proper you are, m'lord." The last bit was said in mocking tone as she grinned to him. Relaxing in her seat she sipped her klah and looked across the Hall, "Something tells me this S'rring fellow doesn't even know what he has gotten in to."
Roselle wasn't buying the fact the Candidate was seeing the mentioned brownrider, not with the way she'd been clinging on to M'gnum. Still she didn't feel as though mentioning such suspicions to M'gnum was warranted. After all, he may think he had broken the girl's psyche and needed to go fix her. Roselle was fine keeping him to herself, the girl could figure out how to graciously take rejection on her own.
Reaching across the table she laid her hand on one of his, "I have time for all of that, I have no plans today." She was lying of course, she had Wing training but she was fine missing it to spend time with the bronzerider - she needed the escape.

T'vis saw something drop at his feet and glanced to Helios, who was busy once again showering the green in attention. Rolling his eyes he bent down and picked the object up, it was a shiny shell. Standing up he turns it over in his hand a few times before arching a brow back at Helios, but the brown was not going to offer any other advice it seemed.
The brown-thing means for you to give it to Venideth's. Though I cannot see why. She is no Goldrider. Detrith offered some help, though even that was not very helpful. Tossing it in the air and catching it a few times he chanced a glance at Lilu, who had seemingly dismissed his existence.

"I'm sure she was, and if I know women it seems she is trying to steal you still. With jealousy." Roselle offers a cold smirk up at the Bronzerider before slipping her arm around his waist. Then she thought better of it, he was so proper and might not enjoy being overly affectionate with a mere Greenrider - at least not in public. Pulling her arm back she looks up at him once more, "Can't say I see what she sees in you..."
There was a teasing note to her voice as she began to walk them towards the far corner of the Hall - away from the direction Cami had gone. "How long do I have you before duty takes you again?" She asks as she sits down and takes an offered mug of klah from one of the drudges who was milling about with a platter full of them.

Fingers tighten against his hips as he pulls her in closer, one hand moving up to cup against his left cheek as they kiss. His grip loosens as the kiss ends but she keeps herself pressed closely against him, her face speaking volumes of the adoration she had for him. His hot breath against her eat made the greenrider shiver and she gave a very quiet sound of approval at the nip to her earlobe. "Behave..." She breathed out, though there was no scolding or real conviction to her tone.
Closing her eyes for a moment she relaxed as he spoke, "Evil, you say? What sort of evil? And I think it is best not to let on - let them have their fun. We don't want them to know we always know what they are up to, now do we?" She gave a soft chuckle before opening her eyes once more to gaze into his.

The small clutch of two managed to catch the attention of both riders and 'mandyrs as the eggs twitched and shook. One toppled over and soon in a flurry of movement they both cracked open to reveal the tender prizes inside...
Tunnelsnakes!!!
The two snakes twined about inside the makeshift nest before finally catching sight of the people. Though they were mere hatchlings they both hissed and one of them lunged towards Cairenn - only to be quickly dispatched by the blur of green that was Nymeria. The 'mandyr hissed out, frill flared as she quickly snapped the first snake's neck and rounded back to go after the second. Fear was an emotion apparently even tunnelsnakes could feel as the second turned quickly and fled the 'nest', managing to disappear into a crack in the Weyrbowl's wall before the 'mandyr brought its life to and end. Satisfied Nymeria moved to perch on Her's shoulder once more, Foolishness! Such foolishness this day. Lovey-voice should better heed the words spoken to him.
A low groan came from C'vin after everything had settled down, great, now his 'mandyr had something to gloat about for a few more days. Picking up the dead tunnelsnake he tossed it aside and looked at Cairenn with a sheepish grin, "Ya alrigh' there miss? I uh, guess it weren' a razorclaw nest I stumbled upon... Real sorry abou' that."
