T'kala hung around after the class, trying to be noticed by the staff. He wanted to talk to Notce but wasn't sure what to say. After all rules where rules but she was cute. Nocte was talking to a couple of the new weyrlings and smiled at their questions. She remebered when she had asked such questions. She waved them off to their dragons adn turned to see if the room had cleared out. She cocked her head to the side and placed her hands on her pert little hips.
"T'kala, why are you still here? You should be back with that handsome young dragon of yours." she said with mock severity.

T'kala jumped with a gulity look. "He's asleep."

Nocte smiled, "You do know I was teasing." She shook her head as she walked over and sat on a table near him, "So, what do you need." she cocked her head.

"Well, I've been asking around, trying to figure out this whole bluerider thaing, I thought if I asked some green riders, another perspective you know."

She smiled, "What about it do you want to know?" She looked him over. he was cute in his own special way, but she told herself 'his dragons to young'. she ran a hand through her curly black hair and then placed both hands in her lap to a wait his answer.

"What the girls who ride greens think about blueriders."

"Hmmm... Depends on the bluerider I guess. I know several cute ones. But, just because your cute doesn't mean your good. It also depends on teh greenrider. Some girls like bad boys and some don't. Why do you have a certian lady you are curious about?" She smiled sweetly, as she drew her knees to her chest. Of, course she was sure he had one of his fellow weyrling's in mind. She had very little belief in her own looks. Not after Vykor... She took a breath to steady herself. then turned and smiled again.

"Well kind of ... no, I mean I don't know. Dag's so young and I know the rules and all."

"There is a fine line with that. You can like someone but can't do anything till he is older. Don't worry it will seem quick if you don't think about it. Just remember to keep your feelings in check. Just remember, it's okay to like someone you just can't kiss, or anything like that." She ran a hand through her hair. "But how do I make sure I don't hurt him, I mean he'll know if I _really_ like someone. Won't that bother him?"

"You just have to keep your emotions in check. I mean you can care for someone and all, you just can't do much more than hold hands and talk to each other. No kissing, no intimacy. If you are really worried, you could always tell yourself that it won't be long and you can have a relationship when you are a seniour weyrling."

"And he'll be ok? I just don't want to hurt him in any way."

"WHy don't we just say, you can like someone for now but anything more waits for that time when it is alright to feel it. For now worry yourself with your handsome blue and nothing else. he is your most pressing concern.
All else can wait till he is old enough to deal with it." She smiled and reached over to pat him on the arm. T'kala jumped at teh contact. It wouldn't do to let her know _she_ was the one he liked. "Ok, I will."

His reaction did not go unnoticed, but Nocte firgured it had to do with his worry over his dragon. she stood and patted him on the back. "Why don't we go and see your handsome little guy."

"OK." he grinned, anything to do with Dagreth made him smile.
