N'vanik

}:Orlaith, N'vanik wants to know if yours would like some company.:{

}:She is currently pouting in her bed and says I can't tell anyone:{ She
Rhosyn wanted attention, but she wasn't supposed to say that.

}:That she's pouting?:{ Loseth asked.

}:No..I'm not supposed to say why she's pouting:{ Orlaith pointed out
as if all men were stupid.

Loseth thought for a moment. }:Do you think it would be good if we came?:{

}:If you do, you better have a gift:{ the gold provided helpfully.

N'vanik wasn't the brightest glow in the basket when it came to
personal matters, but he had it figured out by the time Loseth landed
on the Weyrwoman's ledge. "Happy Birthingday, Rhosyn."

She came out of her lair to find him there. Despite herself, she was pleased. He had remembered and come. "Thanks," she said simply as she waited for him to get down so she put her hands on him.

He slipped easily from Loseth's neck and leaned down to kiss her.

She returned it, putting her arms around his waist. When she pulled back, she smiled slowly. "If you tell anyone I'm older, I'll make you disappear."

"What's the big deal about getting older? Everyone gets older."

"Yes everyone gets older, but it's different for men than women. Men get
distinguished. Women are crones." Walking into her weyr, she sat down in
an empty chair, watching him walk. Some men just had nice walks. "So what
am I getting?"

"Straight to the present, huh?" He gave her a teasing smile as he unfastened his jacket.

"It's about the only reason to have a birthingday," she fired back,
still watching him.

He chuckled and pulled a book out from under his jacket. "I thought
about getting you a sappy romance, but I figured adventure was more
your style."

"Ohhhh a story," she got up and ran to snatch it, looking at the title. Setting it down, she came back to him. "Can I unwrap you now?"

N'vanik gave her a slow smile. "Of course."
