How much of an effect does a Firelizard Mating Flight have on the owner?

A firelizard's mating flight is not nearly as powerful or overwhelming as a dragon mating flight. Though the participants are aware of what is happening, they are not one with their flit. They can go about life as normal with only a relatively small reaction that can either be embraced or ignored by the participants. The winners of the flights do not fall into bed with each other, nor do the participants have a powerful need to relieve their lust.

Some may point to the mating flight between Menolly and Sebell's flits, but keep in mind that they had feelings for each other before the flight, and they were both in a position where they could indulge in the feeling (alone on a boat with no one around to see them).

Also, for those who do chose to embrace the effects of the flight, keep in mind they are not granted the same allowances as a dragon's flight. Hold and Hall still have rules of propriety, and even Weyrs would not excuse a person from duty just because they had a firelizard rise to mate. Keep in mind that since the owner's participation in a firelizard flight is completely voluntary, the excuse "But my firelizard rose to mate!" will not cut it. The owner will suffer any consequences their choice may bring.
