J'ren saw the form moving through the hall and his feet spurred to a faster
trot. His smile grew larger as he came up alongside of the Weyrwoman.
"Rhosyn." He greeted, his smile warm for her. "Good day."

"Good day, Wingsecond," she gave the customary greeting and kept walking,
though she did slow down, waiting to see just what he wanted.

"J'ren, please." The bronzerider encouraged as he fell into step easily
beside her. "I hope the day finds you well."

"So far. Have to get my tank cleaned and filled as well as pick up my
boots." Her mind was going down several tracks so she wished he would get to the point. "Did you ride sweeps today?"

"Yes." J'ren nodded, eyes roaming over her features. "I was hoping you
would join me for dinner tonight." He finally stated, perhaps sensing her
impatience.

"You're more than welcome to sit at the head table with me if you'd like."
Rhosyn liked her chair. It had thicker cushions than the others and her seat made it so she got served first.

"That sounds pleasant." He supposed, not quite what J'ren had in mind.
"I was kind of hoping for something...a little more intimate, to be honest."

**Well there it is**

**The things I do for my Weyr and for bronzeriders' egos**

"Like what?" If he expected her to just go along, he was mistaken. He'd have to prove it worth her time. No one messed with Rhosyn's meals.

"Thought maybe I could put something together, grab a blanket. We could
head out to the beach and enjoy the sunset." Certainly a lot more intimate
than sitting at the head table in the Weyr. "You could tell me some of your favorite foods, make sure I bring those along."

It wasn't exactly what she would have suggested, but he was trying. Figuring it would be better to just agree, she turned a corner with him. "Fingerroots in butter, baked tubers with cream, wherry steak, or whatever else Solieira knows I like."

"I'll speak with her on it." Wherry steak? The woman had good taste, that
was for certain. "And for dessert?" Might as well go all out, right?

There were so many choices when it came to that. Rhosyn went to the old
standby. "Cheesecake..with redfruit slices and syrup."

"You're making my mouth water." J'ren meant in more ways than one. He
nodded. "I'll see to it that your requests are met, Weyrwoman. And shall we meet at seven? In the bowl, or elsewhere if you prefer."

"The bowl is fine," she replied, wondering what else she was going to have
to do before the night was over.

"Good. I look forward to it." More than Rhosyn probably realized. J'ren
stopped and gave her a bow. "I shall go to make the arrangements and see
you then." Without waiting for an answer, he turned and began to make his
way back the way he had come.
