Kyrel glared at the brownrider's response, thoroughly unimpressed by his attitude. Aru had assigned him a simple task - show the man to a cot - and he had been prepared to do so without complaint,

Kassia's eyes roved over the beautiful selection. A candidate could only have so much, but her collection was still impressive. And the dragon-shaped piece was eye-catching. She wanted a closer look.

"He's adorable. A regular bronze in miniature." I'des responded. "Hi there." He paused. "I'm I'des, by the way. Of bronze Sunstreath." -- Sent from my phone!

Ysolde watched, resisting the urge to burst out. Maybe the person, whoever they were, was just looking. There was no harm in looking. But the non-descript clothing made the hairs on the back of her

"You left-- ah, crap." Cremsden grimaced. "Come on, and let's be a bit quick about it. I don't like leaving him alone with kids." And the fact that Aru wasn't that much older than Kyrel herself

Teyra chuckled a little and held her arm out more. Lali studied the large bronze for a long moment before deciding he was okay, and turning to the man with a curious cheep. "Yea he is. He's usually

Some days Kassia just wanted to be less noticeable. Or to try to be. This was one of those days as she wore simple riding leathers and had a guard standing outside the Candidate Barracks instead of

((Igen is where we came from. Before mine got...retired.)) The old brown snorted in disgust at the idea, and settled into the shallow water with a slosh. ((You...look like someone. Someone mine

"Shut the feck up you little wherry shit," Z'go snapped back at the kid as soon as he heard the remark. He was not in the mood to deal with some little teenager's judgemental remarks. He would've

Surprise, surprise, Nayari was in her office. Doing paperwork. Again. Sometimes it seemed like there was a never ending stream of paperwork to do. Unfortunately with a new clutch on the sands, that

Kyrel felt like his brain might begin to ooze out of his skull if he learned one more folding method that morning, so he was grateful for the interruption. Aru's warning regarding the rider that

Lerian watched all the others running around, talking and tossing debris about. He was glad that Sandy was helping, but amused at the little gold's scolding of Star. He turned to Devika with a smile

It had been years (though not as many as he liked to think) since R'bor had been in the candidate barracks but he still knew his way around them. A couple of candidates spotted the bronzerider knots

Coming back from the bathing pool, Ysolde ran a towel through her hair as she walked. The exercise drills this morning had been tough but sinking into the hot water afterwards had been beyond

Kassia stepped out of T'rifoshe's office. She was making her weekly rounds checking on the Candidates and visiting her uncle at the same time. As she passed through towards the exit, she spotted a

"Well, it's not a Fall so that narrows down the possibilities," Cremsden said lightly, though he was already standing and reaching for his bag. "Where'd you put him?" -- Blackadder: I mean, what

"So you fold this one this way because it's easier to pull out of this bin, and those other bigger ones you fold the other way I showed you because they usually go into storage," Aruithil concluded,

"Ah hah! So you're to blame! You know, when I first came up a few days ago, I couldn't even get the door open because stuff had fallen down behind it. Now I know I can blame someone for it." There was
