"How could you have kept her a secret from me!" Belamick howled as he jumped on his friend as he caught up with him in the dining cavern. "Who?" Ioporol asked, generally confused. He hadn't been keeping any secrets from Belamick, well as far as Belamick knew.

Belamick scoffed as he released the fellow candidate.
"Why your _girl_, you rascal! I met her this morning, and how could you not tell me about her!" "Who?" Ioporol knew a lot of girls, and each and every one of them were appealing to a guy in their own way. "You need to be specific."

"Shards man! How many women do you _have_?" he laughed, "Why Honalyse of course!"

"Oh," Ioporol looked at his friend. "Honalyse. She and I have been friends forever. I could never date her." **I don't think I could date _any_ girls.**

Belamick stopped and just looked at his friend. Was he pulling his leg? How could anyone _not_ want to have Honalyse as his girl? "Oh come on, you can tell me... she's one of _those_ type of friends right?"

"Faranth No!" **I only have _one_ of those.** And he wasn't about to tell _anyone_ about F'rian... "She's not my type."

"Not your type?" Belamick was appalled, how could she not be his type... she was near perfect! "What, do you prefer the ugly stupid ones now or something?" "No," **I more prefer the type that have deep voices, flat chests and a bit more in the pants. Kind of like you.** Ioporol shoved that thought deep down in his head, he couldn't let himself get hurt. By Belamick's reaction to meeting Honalyse, he was obviously not into that. "She's just not what I'm looking for."

Belamick gave his best friend one more long look then shrugged, giving up. "Okay then, mind if I give her a go? I think she's _exactly_ what I'm looking for!" "Um, I think she's seeing someone." **Like half the weyr.**

He frowned, but he wasn't really surprised, a beauty like her wouldn't go unnoticed for long. "Figures. Oh well, it can't last forever. I'll get a chance eventually... I have patience!"

"Yes, because your reaction is the essence of patience." Ioporol grinned as he shot the sarcastic remark.

Belamick thumped Ioporol on the shoulder and laughed, "Patience comes in many levels my friend, many levels!"
