It was Shouto who found her out in the hall. She knew his voice well, and the hands gripping her elbow were familiar. And the scent. With her eyes losing their luster, Sc'let began to notice her other senses were picking up the slack - just a little, nothing crazy, but enough to be tangible. It was especially noticeable after she'd had her eyes bound with cloth for a while. Mebbe she oughta be doin' that more often?

"Innit ya be's bein' a sweetums, Shouboy! No wonder you n' 'Zuku be's doin' the hibbity bibbity." Uncouth, as always. She gave him a light ribbing and a wink with malformed eyes. "He be's havin' a good 'un in ya's, fer sure!"

And then the egg was thrust into her hands. Gently, delicately. It was warm between her fingers and wobbling just so. In an instant she found herself back on the sands, witnessing Edwyth bursting from his unusual shell. The same life thrived beneath this one. It was a shame she couldn't really tell what this egg looked like.

There were splintering cracks and chirps around her. Some were already breaking loose! Sc'let drew in a breath. "We gon' do this, Eddie! Wonder what it's gonna be?"

Shouto's cheeks colored at Sc'let's teasing and ribbing, wishing somewhat that he could just sink into the floor and disappear. Faranth, she was nice and all, but also like to embarrass him... a lot. To be honest, it was starting to become somewhat endearing to the Greenrider, even if it did make him blush. "Just, um... yeah. I'll describe it to you once it hatches." He knew she wouldn't be able to see details, but if he could describe the 'lizard's hide to her, that would help, right?

Pleased that she'd been obeyed, Mnythri chirped happily at Lau'ren. So pleased was she that the rider had listened, she pushed an egg into his hands while practically beaming with pride. She made this, and now she was giving it away out of the kindness of her heart! Wasn't that nice?

Noticing that Jacek was lacking an egg, Drivith trilled once again, leaning forward to prod him with her nose toward the basket. Silly human, you need to pick out your egg!

Another hopeful, Chuuya entered and Izuku nodded with a smile. It's fine with us, right, Shou? He said. Shouto simply nodded, busy as he was with the eggs. Still, he plucked one from the basket and passed it to the wherhandler with a sage nod. "This one's yours, take care of it."

Barca wouldn't have to wait much longer to see if she got her wish. The egg in her hands shook violently, then practically exploded into a million tiny pieces, leaving her with a handful off Blue firelizard. He shook off the goop from his hide and looked around, confused for a moment, before taking a fight stance and hissing at Barca. He didn't know what he was fighting or why, but it was fight time!

Image

Azul didn't have much time with her egg, as soon it split down the middle and allowed the firelizard inside to claw his way out. A Bronze soon took the egg's place, little head held high as he surveyed his 'kingdom', seemingly unaware of all the goop still on his body. He had servants for that, right? Like this big one, who should be feeding him now.

A blue. Barca smirked. It was a good color, not that it mattered very much for a flit. And then when he took an aggressive stance, she barked out a laugh. "Shards yeah," she told him, immediately shoving a bit of meat into his mouth. "That's the right attitude, you little bastard." She felt their bond form. It felt different from how it had with Brynth, but that made sense. The way they impressed was different, after all, so it made sense they should feel different.

The blue was surprised at Barca's lack of fear at his aggression, but he quickly forgot about it as he realized that he had food in his mouth and was ravenously hungry. Don't gorge him, Brynth reminded her as the blue started to get full but kept opening his mouth for more. It's not good for him at this age.

'I know that,' Barca snapped back irritably. She'd forgotten, though, not that she'd admit it. She dropped the bit of meat she'd been holding back into the bucket. There was still plenty left. 'So what are you calling him? I vote Little Bastard.' She smirked at the name and could almost feel the eye roll Brynth no doubt gave from where she sat.

Absolutely not, he said, though he was under no illusions that she'd probably call him that whatever Brynth decided. Ares is a good name for him, I think. I will call him that.

Barca gathered the flit up into her arms and grabbed her bucket. "Well, this has been boring as between," Barca announced to the room. "Smell ya later, losers." She sauntered out of the room, the sleepy, stuffed blue tucked into the crook of her arm. "Alright you bastard. Your real owner wants to meet you. He'll call you Ares, but you'll always just be a little bastard to me," she told the firelizard, giving him a little scratch under the chin. He'd decided this large creature was alright, and he didn't need to fight her. The brown who's mind he could feel was also probably fine. But once he'd had a nap and slept off his food coma, he was going to come back to that room and fight all the creatures in there. Probably at once. He could take 'em. Later, though.

Jacek gave a bit of a chuckle as he was nudged by Drivith, smiling gently, "Alright, alright, I'll go and get an egg!"

He just moved to pick up a random egg, wondering how Rinisath would react to a firelizard. He didn't own one- hell, did Edsel even own one, now that he thought about it-, but he always had an interest in them. They always looked so smart.

He smiled gently at Drivith, "There, is that better?" He said it a bit teasingly.

More splintering shells and differing reactions. There was that Barca fellow, kinda being an ass. She scrunched up her nose in her direction. "Smell you, bozo. Go be's takin' a bath or somethin', ya reek and not in a smexy way!"

Dude was gone though. Whatever. There was a little egg in her hands and Sc'let found herself straining not to tighten her grip, fearful that she might shatter the precious thingamabob with too brute a force. She had the mind to set her meat bucket on the floor and she kind of ... waved the egg back and forth over it, enticingly cooing at the same time.

"C'mon, widdle babes. Be's smellin' that scrumptious, yummy liver n' ribs, yea?" Liver! She'd definitely made sure to grab some from the scraps. plenty of nutrition there! And she was suddenly intensely hungry for liver and onions. And steak, cooked just enough to stop mooing. Sc'let licked her lips. "Eddy's wantin' ta meetcha, ya knows. Big ol boyo been really down n' out - "

She knew that trill anywhere! Drivith is here!

That is the weyr of her rider, yes. From where he sauntered, Edwyth cocked his head sideways. But he sent a flurry of affectionate emotions towards his clutchmate from afar. Make sure she doesn't hurt herself will you, sister?

"I be's thinkin' of settin' ol' Eddy up on a blind date!" And she guffawed at the self-deprecating pun. "Big ol' softy! Ain't known a draggie to want somethin' to go steady with! But he's like 'I want true love' an' it's so sweet it makes me barf!"

M'da might've bypassed Xistanorth's call had she not recognized his voice, pausing in her tracks to listen. Firelizard eggs? As far as she was aware, Izuku wasn't bonded to a firelizard, unless it was damn good at hiding. Perhaps he was announcing on behalf of someone who couldn't broadcast such news via telepathy? Well, firelizard eggs were firelizard eggs, regardless of who had them. Oi, Morduuth! M'da touched her dragon's mind, to which he answered in wordless awareness. Tell Xistanorth to get Izuku to save me an egg, would you? Morduuth grunted annoyance, though he did as she asked. Firelizards are annoying creatures, and more trouble than value, he added. I don't see why you'd willingly attach yourself to such inconvenience. It's a crime to be curious, is it? she answered testily. Morduuth said nothing more, but it was a quiet that spoke volumes; he'd let her learn her lesson.

M'da made her way to Izuku's weyr, surprised to find herself needing to weave her way through a bit of a crowd to get close to her prize. A dragonrider, a green dragon, and a gold firelizard were all present, as were Izuku and Xistanorth, but it was clear where these eggs had come from once she'd spotted that brilliant gold coat. Regardless, she pressed forward as soon as she found enough space, nodding to those in her path before bypassing them; best to get clear as soon as possible, given how much of a crowd there was. Once she was close enough, she grinned at Shouto, but still nodded a hello to both Drivith and Mnythri; she was well aware to pay respects to a clutchmother, regardless of species or color. "Still got an egg or two left?" M'da asked, brushing a swathe of unruly orange hair behind an ear. "Caught wind from Xistanorth about firelizard eggs hatching. Right, me. M'da of bronze Morduuth. Izuku and I are wingmates together in Firestorm, in case you're wondering why I decided to show up, once I'd heard about these eggs of yours."

Smoke screeched impatiently, the grumpy little flit’s voice arrowing straight into L’ana’s ear. The brownrider huffed gustily, wrestling with the ties of a message scroll around a tiny draconic leg. “Yeah yeah yeah, y’know the drill, Mister Impatient. SETTLE, or you ain’t getting a delivery treat!” She’d had the smokey-patterned white for all of SEVEN Turns, and honestly, you’d think the grumpy-pants would’ve learned some actual, proper, patience, but no. He was just as impatient and grumpy as ever..

Though, at least she had successfully made some progress with training Smoke over the Turns, despite that. The difficult flit stilled under L’ana’s practiced handling, occasionally radiating pure grumpiness in his posture and his glittering glare as she tugged at the ties, until the message scroll finally fell free of his leg. “Aha, there we go. Thanks, Smokey-boy.” She tossed him the promised treat—a chunky piece of firelizard-approved jerky wrapped within some softer strips leftover from breakfast—and went to read her mail.

Or she would have, had she not been interrupted by a certain announcement involving firelizard eggs.

Oh? L’ana’s green eyes gleamed thoughtfully as she put aside the rolled letter for the moment. Perhaps it was time for Smoke to have a friend, hopefully one who could put up with his, ah, winning personality. She snorted, and briefly glanced over at Jomuroreth, the big graceful brown comfortably stretched out in a patch of morning sunlight. Yeah, they’d all need to get along with each other; though, if she could handle Smoke for seven Turns and countin’, then she probably could handle just about anything another flit might toss at her!

Plus, flit babies were always pretty stinkin’ cute.

Hey, Jo-Jo. Whaddya think of pickin’ up a second flit?

A large faceted eye lazily blinked open, its softly swirling depths following his dark-haired rider as she rose and began to beeline for the door. …Hm? Ah…a flit. Yes. Perhaps…another will do Smoke good. And you.
Heh! Thanks for the vote of confidence, Jo. I think. Can ya keep an eye on Smoke, please? I’ll be back in a bit!
She grinned back at the dragon, the tall woman waggling her already-slightly-ink-stained fingers in tacit farewell as she left their weyr.

And so off she skedaddled to the weyr in question; unconsciously hurrying through the enclosed hallway in an attempt to somewhat quell her mild claustrophobia. Granted, the stone hallways weren’t exactly small, given the spaciousness of the Weyr overall, but when one was about six foot eight inches tall with a fear of being trapped in small spaces… yeah, that doesn't help.

Anyhow.

She found the right room, promptly entering almost right upon M’da’s heels, only to discover just how much of a crowd had already begun gathering. A premature sigh of relief quickly turned into a quietly strangled gulp in her throat, but L’ana nevertheless managed to forge on in until she was at least within direct sight of both the weyrledge entrance—with its open glimpse of spring skies and sunlit stone ridges—and of course the riders hovering over a basket of what must be the clutch of lil’ firelizard eggs that had brought everyone here. Four of them had already hatched, clearly, and ooh, what a lovely quartet of beauties they were!

Determinedly swallowing down her irrationally half-formed panic, the brownrider smiled at those she recognised from her wing, among them Izuku. “..Hi! L’ana of Brown Jomuroreth, here, also of Firestorm. I’d love an egg please, if there’s any left?”

Lau'ren of Blue Cedrateth - Reacting to Mnythri
--

Lau'ren let the firelizard tug him along as she saw fit, finding terrible amusement in the event. The Gold was clearly a very demanding little thing, but he supposed that was to be expected. She was a Queen in her own right, and was most likely treated as such by her owner. One didn't always get to the top without the right attitude, or so he reasoned to himself.

Once near the ever shrinking group of eggs, Lau'ren set the items from under her arm to the floor. Important as they were, what was being presented to him now was clearly the most prioritized. Cupping his hands, the Bluerider offered his palms as a temporary nest of sort, for the egg Mnythri had specifically chosen for him. His smile grew as he watched the proud flit puff her tiny chest and turn her snout high to the ceiling. Clearly very pleased and very confident in her decisions. There would be no doubting or questioning permitted!

“Is this the one you'll gift to me then?” Lau'ren asked, despite knowing the answer. “I'm very honored,” he told her, even if there was doubt she understood his words. “I can tell it's a fine egg – perhaps your finest in craftsmanship alone~ I endeavor to only give it the best of care and attention.”

Nodding eagerly at Jacek, Drivith trilled happily and sat again, resuming her casual watch over the few eggs that remained. There weren't many left now, and hopefully they would all be claimed before they hatched. They needed their own people to take care of, after all! She perked suddenly and trilled again; it was Edwyth! On it! You can count on us! She was including Shouto in this, as he was already keeping an eye on Sc'let. They'd keep her safe, no problem!

Once he'd made sure Sc'let was set, Shouto returned to sit next to the basket, leaning on Drivith's leg for support. Who knew giving out firelizards could be so much work? His brief rest was interrupted by another rider, bronze by her knots, his eyebrow slowly creeping toward his hairline as M'da spoke. "Oh, right. Izuku's mentioned you," he replied without giving further context as to the mention. Instead, he reached in to the basket and extracted an egg to hand over. "Lucky, this is one of the last ones," He said. "It's your lucky day."

Another latecomer arrived, and Izuku's face broke into another grin at L'ana. "Hey, you made it! It looks like there's one left, so why don't you go over and Shou can get you acquainted?" How exciting, the whole clutch would have new homes!

Mnythri trilled her approval at Lau'ren's flattery, drinking in every word to soak her little ego in. Her eggs were the finest in all of Pern, and this human seemed to understand that. She was most worthy of one of her children indeed!

It seemed as though Sc'let was next to give a flitt a home as her egg began to crack, one little egg emerging, then two, before the whole thing collapsed into a pile of shards. A little brown sat where the egg had once been, looking up at Sc'let with all the benevolence his little body could hold. His eyes whirled with happy rainbows, even as his tummy grumbled. He creeled sweetly; hatching was hard work, could he have some food, please?

Image

Melosa's egg followed in rapid succession, a horizontal crack forming in the middle to allow a rather eager little blue to simply pop the top of the egg off. He seemed confused by this, taking a minute to decide that yes, that shell wasn't supposed to be there, and shook it off with an eager peep. Hello! Food please!

The egg in her hand split quite neatly down the middle, and oh - he was so very cute! A small blue, he had the same speckles as his brothers and sisters so far; however, they seemed a little less like snowflakes on him, and more like ... flowers, maybe? They reminded her of snowdrops, tiny flowers on a field of blue.

He peeped at her, and Melosa laughed. Hungry! Of course he was hungry. She offered him the jerky she'd dug out of her pocket, hesitating just long enough to make sure there was no pocket lint stuck to it before letting him eat. His eyes swirled in rainbows and she felt their bond form; she almost fancied it was nestled alongside Berry's bond, like the two of them were warm little eggs of love in her head.

The little blue tried to cuddle in against Melosa even as he ate every bit of jerky she offered him.

"Aren't you just the darling?" she asked warmly, her voice quiet, for the firelizard alone. "I'm going to call you Snowdrop, baby boy, and here in a few minutes I'm going to take you home and introduce you to your new big sister, Berry Bandit. She'll help me teach you everything you need to know."

Sorey gave Shouto a beaming grin, cradling the egg in his hands as it was pushed into them. "Oh, thanks!" Not exactly what he was expecting, but he wasn't complaining! The little one inside seemed particularly eager to greet him, as not long after the first came forth, the shell tumbled away from the little garnet in a crumbly flurry. He laughed as she started to groom herself, carefully tilting her onto one hand so he could reach with his other into his pocket and pull out some of the little dried meat chunks he'd nipped from the kitchens. It was a little difficult to break them into bite-sized pieces with one hand, but he didn't exactly want to risk squashing her in trying. "Aren't you a cute little thing," he told her as she began to gobble up the little pieces he was able to tear off for her.

He looked over at Shouto and Izuku, giving them a wave with the hand not occupied by a baby firelizard. "I'll get outta your hair before the party gets too big! Thanks again!" Sorey stepped out into the hall to reduce some of the crowding in the other riders' weyr, though didn't walk off just yet. He'd have to get them something nice at the next Gather as thanks. Maybe a nice mastercraft dagger? Or a nice set of riding goggles. Riders always needed extra riding goggles. Or maybe that was just him.

"Thank you, Shouto," Azul said politely to Izuku's weyrmate, who seemed to be a very nice young man, with fairly definite opinions of who should get which egg. In her experience, many firelizard eggs were simply claimed from a bucket, but these were Shouto's firelizards eggs and, as such, he was entitled to administer as he wished.

Perhaps if he had handled the eggs often enough, he had felt their faint echoes, as the rider or handler of a mother dragon or wher often did.

Her egg was warm and smooth, the shell already hard. She could not feel any whispers, but tried not to take offense, when the egg was likely occupied with hatching.

The first to hatch, two blues and a garnet, looked like healthy, well-tended hatchlings- with no shortage of spirit.

And then hers started to split- an olivey nose sticking out.

Green or bronze? Azul wondered to herself, as she looked at the firelizard, who stared back at her with a glimmer of impatience and an imperious cheep, when she waited too long. He barely budged, despite the sound of protest, waiting for her to bring the first bite of meat straight to his lips.

Bronze, definitely bronze, she concluded, as the sparks of his mind brushed hers, sprawling through the territory of her mind, like a conquering king.

"Think you're king of the mountain, huh?" Azul said, with a gentle scritch to his eyelids, as he reclined and cheeped an order for more food, "You'll learn the world won't come to if you don't seek it. It's better this way- to make your own destiny."

She's right, young Ozymandias, Claarisath's voice rumbled through both of their minds.

Kind of a long name, for such a little firelizard. I think I'll call him Oz.

The egg in L'ana's hands, having been mostly still to this point, began to shake violently for a moment, then stopped completely. Cracks began to appear on the surface, then a little snout burst from the top of the egg, nostrils flaring as the little firelizard took his first breath in the outside world. That seemed to spur him on, and before anyone knew it. L'ana was holding a stunning little Blue. He yawned and stretched his wings, but made no other noises as his eyes whirled in rainbows- that was, until his tummy grumbled for food.

Not to be left out, apparently, Jacek's egg practically exploded almost immediately after and the little Green left behind flopped in a goopy heap in his hands. She trilled softly at him, but didn't seem all that inclined to actually get up and do anything, content with her tailforks twitching to a song only she could hear.

Chuuya of Blue Yask and White Chusk

The redhead offered Izuku a grateful smile as he was handed an egg and instructed to take good care of the little creature within. “Of course,” he responded, cradling the egg carefully and stepping a bit more to the side to let others past. No sense in crowding near everyone else in the already-confined space. Several eggs hatched in quick succession after he was handed his own, the hatchlings all seeming energetic and healthy enough. Inwardly, he hoped that the hatchling he received wouldn’t be easily bullied by Yask. Yask was always scheming, and Chuuya couldn’t always make sense of his blue’s plans.

Chuuya very carefully did not take his hands off the egg he was cradling for anything, waiting patiently for it to hatch. He did watch the others and their new flits, though, wondering what would come from his own egg. Almost every color of flit had hatched at least once already, and he was at least somewhat curious to see what the last few would be. Though the priority, of course, was the egg in his own hands.

What
was
this
sweet BABBEH?!

She could see little patterns of browns and ... well, more browns! Circular things, nothing really detailed because it was all stupid blurry but AWWWEEEE the way it pleaded and chirped and was so warm and soft to the touch she just couldn't -

Well?

"Izza widdle brown booooiii!" She could not help the poking and prodding of her own hands, exploring every bit of him without being improper, just to get an idea of his proportions and, honestly, character! The little guy was very patient with the whole ordeal, although the cheep that rang from his throat gave quite the 'Uhhh ... can we ... move on?' tone. "Innitcha so kewt!"

I can feel his hunger pangs from here, Sc'let, Edwyth nudged into hia rider's mind, reminding her of her duty. You've a scrap bucket handy to feed him, not to sit there on the floor for no purpose. Perhaps ... you know ... give him food?

"Oh you know what, yea. My bad, my bad!" It was an amusing thing to see a half-blind woman struggling to cradle the critter and find the meat as well. She'd no deterrence to picking the flesh up with her own fingers - and the brown accepted without hesitation. Sc'let, true to character, even sucked the residual red from her fingers before grabbing more. After the third mouthful she gave the thing another little prod and giggled at the plush of his newborn tummy. "Aww, you're such a Squishy thang! And thazzit! You be's a Squishy, and you be's my Squishy! Eddy's too - he's gunna be your big bro, yep, you'll be's seein' him soon!"
