C'lor had gotten to see the hatching from a different view than he had previously and had enjoyed it. He had been assigned to work at the edge of the sands where the new weyrlings brought their hatchlings to feed for the first time. It brought back memories of the first time he and Hayreith had attempted a feeding. His bronze was flirting with the greens while he was feeding himself this time. He had found Jyramikah and congratulated her on a successful hatching. He met her harper friend and thought that they made a very nice couple.

He was trying to ignore the drunken greenriders that kept approaching him asking if he'd like to keep them company that evening. As he was disengaging from a particularly persistant greenrider, he spotted his fellow bronzerider. "Good evening, Br'nick!" he called as he made his way towards the Wingsecond.

"Good evening, C'lor. Are you fending them off as well?" he asked referring to the greenrider who was still following the young bronzerider.

"Yes. I might take them up on their offer later, but I'm not tired yet. How was the hatching?"

"Did you not get to see it?"

"I was helping get the new hatchlings fed and into the barracks, so not really. I got to meet all the new weyrlings, though. Only two bronzes in the lot, but there were a few nice looking green weyrlings. I heard that one of the young ladies Impressed from the Stands. I missed that one as I was in between the barracks and the Sands."

Br'nick nodded. "I've done that in my youth. Not quite as exciting as watching the hatching, but it has to be done. You didn't have to cut the meat did you?"

"No thankfully, not. There were a few misbehaving weyrlings who got that job. Makes me glad that Hayreith can hunt on his own, though. I always had meat and blood all over my tunic by the time I was done cutting up enough meat to satisfy his seemingly never ending appetite." he replied.

"That was always the best part of becoming a senior weyrling in my mind. They could hunt for themselves and go /between/ to relieve themselves. Are you feeling better?"

"Much. I can move a lot more easily now, but I won't be flying for awhile yet. I'm not quite limber enough to stay astride Hayreith for too long of a time. How's Cendarnth?"

"He's fine. Probably sitting in the bowl chatting up a pretty green or two. Hayreith?"

"No doubt doing the same thing. Have you seen S'ric lately?" C'lor asked as he wanted a chance to catch up with his favorite green weyrling. If anyone had seen him Br'nick would have being the boy's father.

"Not since the hatching. Perhaps he was tired and left already? It is getting rather late and I've got drills tomorrow." Br'nick said as he stifled a yawn.

"It is late, isn't it? Perhaps I'll go find that pretty greenrider who was flirting with me and see if she has any plans for tonight. I'll see you later, Br'nick."

The bronzerider laughed, "Good luck with your endeavor and have a good night, C'lor." he said as he caught sight of another friend and wandered off in that direction.

C'lor watched his friend head off and glanced around for the greenrider from earlier. Hayreith informed him that a pretty green was willing to send her rider to their weyr. The bronzerider chuckled and headed off to wait for the greenrider.
