"Anath's looking lovley." F'lian sliped into the seat next to Cortana. He had friends among the boys but sometimes he wanted to be around other greenriders.
"As does your Gramth. She's getting so large." Cortana turned to her fellow greenrider. She had spent her entire life in a Hold and was still a little nervous with what male greenriders had to do.
But she wouldn't let Holdbound ways bog her down. "How are you standing training?"
"We're alive at least." he laughed. "I can't burn myself training with the weyrlings."
"That's true. Which part have you found most difficult? I cant' seem to do the sewing, though I've had help." Cortana replied pleased she sounded so calm.
"Cutting the hide for straps, I bake, not sew."
"Well we'll both have to cross that hurdle won't we?" Cortana replied sarcastically, when her green flit Trill returned from one of her secret escapades. With an indignant squak she settled on Cortana's shoulder.
"Hey take it easy little one." He held out a hand pretending to ward of the annoyed firelizard. "You don't like sewing eaither?"
"Oh,no. This is Trill." Cortana coaxed the large green onto her forarm. "And she is overly protective." They both jumped when a smaller brown firelizard appeared in between them.
"And this is Royal. Who like Trill," Cortana told F'lain, holding her other arm out for the little brown to alight upon. "Is overly protective."
"Cute." F'lian eyed the firelizard. He'd not have much to do with firelizard's before.
"Would you like to pet him?" She held Royal forward, who gave a large yawn.
Reaching out he lightly storked the brown lizards eyeridge. "Do they talk like dragons?"
"Oh, no." Cortana shook her head, smiling. "I thought they were every bit as smart as dragons, but that was before I Impressed my glowing Anath." Cortana looked over at the stretching green who was finally becoming active during the day.
"But they are smart. I can get both of them to run messages for me, but usually Royal's a little more reliable." As if she new she was being insulted, Trill chirped and nudged Cortana's cheek.
"Not that your not smart pet." Cortana assured the green. Which caused Royal to demand more attention.
Soon both greenriders were carressing and petting the two flits.
"Feel better now?" F'lian asked the brown flit.
Royal gave a quiet chirrup of content and leaned into the carressing.
"Well it was nice getting to know you F'lian. I hope we can talk again." Cortana said standing up. "Now if you'll excuse me, It would seem I've become forgetful of my firelizards. These two are in for a good scrubbing and oiling. See you around?"
"Sure, nice to meet them."
