Saibra

N'vanik

Saibra rarely faced situations where she was nervous, but there was an
inkling of anxiety nested within the pit of her stomach as she walked
toward N'vanik's office. She was a rule follower, through and through,
and although she knew what she wanted to do wasn't technically
_against_ the rules, it could be frowned upon should people find out.
Thus, she had decided to bring up her little idea to N'vanik while
they met to discuss Jenackt's progress in his etiquette training.

**Here goes nothing.** She thought as she knocked and opened the door
to the Weyrleader's office, "N'vanik," she smiled, "good morning."

"Saibra, good to see you. So how is our sulky Candidate?"

Saibra chuckled as she sat down, "Still sulky in some ways. He has
made some improvements, I suppose, he hasn't beat anyone up at least."

"Thank Faranth." The fight had caused enough of a stir. "Does he
actually listen to you?"

She made a face at that and raised her shoulders, "Sometimes, and
sometimes not. He's a very smart young man, and learns fast. He _is_
getting really frustrated, however, with having lesson after lesson
stacked on."

"I can understand his frustration, but the boy has a lot to learn."
Overwhelming him would be counter-productive though. He didn't want to
push him too hard.

Saibra flashed a smile, "That's part of the reason I am here,
actually. I sort of have an idea for a lesson, or lessons, for him
that would probably help take out some of that stress, and still be
helpful in the long run as well."

"Oh?"

"I would like to show Jenackt some ... Bedroom etiquette, for lack of
better terms." Saibra said, crossing one leg over the other.

N'vanik's eyebrows went all the way up and he stared. "You want to
have sex with Jenackt? Shards, woman. I thought you were all prim and
proper."

Saibra gave a throaty chuckle, "I follow the rules that doesn't make
me prim by any means. We encourage young Weyrlings to seek out an
experienced partner to show them the way so I don't see how this is
very different."

"He's not a weyrling, though I hope he will be soon. What brought this
on? Do you have a little crush on our troubled Candidate?" It made him
think of Qorri with her preference for young men. That soured his mood
for a moment. Well, she wouldn't be running after them in the Hold,
would she? He hoped she'd be miserable.

The Weyrwoman's Second laughed out loud at that, "No, I don't. He
bedded my daughter during Panitath's flight and I sat with a sobbing
teenager afterwards. He needs to learn bedroom etiquette just as much as
social etiquette."

"Your daughter? Huh." Saibra didn't seem upset about it. "So, lack of
experience, and not anything..." **I'd have to kill him for.** "improper?"

"No," she shook her head, "it was nothing improper, Saidrene was
agreeable." Saibra assured N'vanik.

"Good." He nodded, relaxing a little. "So he fumbled around with your
daughter and now you want to show him how to properly handle a woman."
He shook a finger at her. "Saibra, Saibra. Even for a Weyr that's
downright scandalous. Stealing your daughter's man." Yet he couldn't help
finding it amusing.

Saibra laughed again, shaking her head this time, "I guess it _could_
be scandalous. I plan on keeping this a secret, however. He already
comes to me for lessons so there shouldn't be anything suspicious
looking to other people going on."

"More secrets." N'vanik sighed, although he didn't lose his humor. "I
won't tell anyone, don't worry. Go ahead with this crazy plan if you
want. As long as he's okay with it." Not that he expected a young man
to turn down a beautiful goldrider, but he might not be okay about
sleeping with the mother of the girl he liked. Shards, weyrlife could
be strange.
