Looking out across the sands honestly made Ticene tired. So much movement, so much action. The adrenaline from her wounding had now shaken off and she was left with a fatigue that was very intent on dragging her down. Would anyone mind if she just slumped down and went to sleep? That probably wasn't allowed. Still she couldn't imagine being out on the sands. There were a green and blue just zooming around and... was that dragon riding on the dad dragon's head? There was a little white out there too. Ticene was sure that at any other time this would all be very exciting.
What was she thinking? This was exciting. Sitting up a bit straighter she gave herself a gentle smack on the cheek to shake off the fatigue. Hatchlings impressed left and right. White, brown, blue, blue. Seemed like a green was due next. Especially with all the running about. So many babies in one place. As Ticene watched she felt the excitement coming back, though it felt like more now. She felt bizarrely energetic. Giddy even. In fact without even noticing her feet started to tap against the sand as she eagerly peeked around candidates to keep an eye on what was going on in the sands.
Are we playing, mine? What game is this? Ticene almost didn't catch the words, her head tilting slightly to the side. It had sounded far away, yet still so in focus. The candidate glanced around, unconsciously twisting her fingers in her lap. The growing energy in her had taken on a nervous edge, but persisted. She felt suddenly uncomfortably aware that she shouldn't move with her injuries. It wasn't that bad, surely. She would be fine. Ticene wasn't sure where she felt like she now needed to be, but boy was it imperative that she get there. The jumping of her legs and twisting of her legs intensified. Looking around she didn't actually see anything. She wasn't even registering what she was looking for.
A startling hwonk jerked her out of her thoughts and the candidate turned to see the speedy green had just burst into the area. She was beautiful the way she stood there. The concerned look on her face did nothing to hide how gorgeous she was. Her worried looks at the other candidates tore at Ticene's heart. What if the worst had happened? She hated to think it. Watching the green pace about she was transfixed by the quick and sleek way she moved. It was almost impossible to believe that she had only been out of her shell a short while. The green moved with more grace than most people Tic had met. As the dragon came close and looked up into her eyes, the young woman's heart nearly stopped. The moment the gorgeous creature's head touched her lap every movement stilled, all the anxiety fell away from her. Those wonderful eyes. Even as her hands traced every perfect line of the green's face, she couldn't look away from those eyes. The orange and white in them broke her heart. That this sweet, perfect, creature had worried for her.
I put on a show for you to see! Could you see it from here, myTicene? Your Metlath promises she can put on many more for you to watch if you didn't. Metlath... It was perfect. She was perfect. In every single way anyone ever could be. The green's eyes slipped shut and she hummed as Ticene continued to to stroke her face, before they slowly reopened to stare once more, clearly wanting an answer. Ticene felt a stab of guilt. That she had been taken of the sands. That she had missed even one second of the show that Metlath had put on. Opening her mouth to apologise, Ticene struggled to think what she even could say, but before she could form anything, the most beautiful laugh rippled through her mind. It's alright. I was very fast. We just need to find you a better place to watch next time. The green purred, nuzzling her face into Ticene's hand.
The young woman didn't know how to respond. It was like she had been living in a room and someone had finally opened the door. Metlath, had opened the door. With her, all things were possible. They could go anywhere, be whoever they wanted to be. Looking into the swirling blues and greens of her perfect dragon's eyes was like looking over of the ocean horizon for the first time. It was limitless. They were limitless. It was all Ticene could to do just keep touching Metlath, to insure that this wonderful mind wasn't some cruel illusion. The green purred even more, pushing her body even closer. I am real, Mine, so very real. You're right you know. We are limitless. We'll go everywhere, you and I. Metlath lifted her head from the young woman's lap, stretching her neck out she stopped and inch from Ticene's face, staring into her eyes. Ticene could hardly think to breath. A heartbeat passed. A second. The green moved slowly forward. Booping her nose against her rider's and letting out a soft hwonk. Promptly causing the woman to fall apart laughing.

Things were getting exciting now, but this was not the place for chatting - as much as he would have liked to. His had barely given him another look - too busy looking off at another blue. Yellow and Green Freckled Blue (Mystery Egg 8 ) gave a flick of his tail, having remained laying in the sand to bask up it's warmth - and hopefully a certain boys attention. Unfortunately it hadn't been meant to be.
Farinalgo. The dragon spoke in a smooth, flowing tone of voice, reaching out to the boy directly. There is no harm at looking at a blue in hope, as long as you have the right one. I've been waiting for you to notice me, and your Yudokhath is quite tired of waiting. Can we not eat now?
While the boy was not right there, the rainbows in the blue's eyes would linger until Farin made it to him - and hopefully he wouldn't be waiting much longer.

Niika - EGG BETTING TRACKING
A blue had hatched that a particular bet had been made about, and Niika looked at him fondly for what he represented on a piece of paper. How funny was that, to like a blue for something she had no power over and what could possibly never come to pass?
Of course, a lot of other dragons had just spilled out all over, and Niika found it almost overwhelming to keep track of them all. Still, she would imagine his face right now, wondering how many more were going to come.

Fianth The gold dragon watched as the eggs hatched, and almost all in a flurry. She was still working tenderly on the Poor Unfortunate Souls Egg within her claws, scratching at the inside tenderly. Her mood was greatly improved now that things seemed to be... moving along more smoothly than before.
She leaned down to give a small nuzzle to the little gold that had hatched before her, but then stretched out and fondly nuzzled the little counting blue. Thirteen...Fourteen...Fifteen....Sixteen....Seventeen....Eighteen....Nineteen...Twenty! She gave a little croon, eyes whirling a bright blue. And there are many more besides. Do any of them look like Yours? Or should we count higher? If she needed to number every Candidate and every person in the Stands, she would, for her precious darling.

In the Stands, Ryah was not loving the odds on her bet. "C'mon, ladies..." she murmured, shooting some passive aggressive daggers at the girls who better hurry up and Impress already to tip the bet in her favor.

Oh! Mama was so very helpful! Someday My Prince Will Come gave a pleased burble and booped his mama lovingly. There was someone that he'd noticed just then! Twenty and one! That was the one! That was His!
CallaMine, what comes after twenty? Are you twenty and one? the little dragonet asked, coming ambling up to his new best friend. He placed a delicate paw upon her knee, peering up into her eyes with rainbows of his very own.
Would she be his love? His twenty and one?

Siv
AAAAHHH SWEET FARANTH WHY! Siv still felt somewhat self concious after Fianth's look earlir, and when she saw the gold looking out ovber the hatchlings, Siv did an about-face to try excaping the gold's watchful gaze. Nope, nuh uh, whatever was going on she was suitably intimidated to do what the gold asked please don't look at her so again she didn't want to die!
No, instead she decided to try moving for a thicker group...
And insyead of making it five steps she fell into the sand, culminating into a fifth splut for the day and dignity thuroughly trashed once more despite trying to be dignified.
No, you know what? This was fine, she could burn her knees a while tioll she recovered, see? This. This was fine nobody look okay.

Where. He had been looking so ardently, and yet it was so HARD to find His in the throng of all the people! The brown huffed irritably as he traced between people, snuffling and then moving to sit in front of all the candidates. Ignore his siblings, look at Gryffindor! When that didn't work, he let out a loud bugle to get attention, and then called out to His, My Sylyas! I am getting terribly hungry. Come to your Leoniath so that we might both go eat! Onwards to victory! Come on, come on!
Haelwen & Hyseren For the love of Faranth! Suddenly there was an explosion of activity and there were dragonets causing harm, and was that boy -dead-? Neither twin could tell from their places on the Sands as they did their best to protect themselves and those beside them.
Haelwen was knocked to the ground in the fray and after things had settled she sat up with the help of her brother who had made his way towards her once he noticed she was down. "Don't move too fast, you have some pretty nasty looking cuts." Hyseren waited until his sister was trying to push herself up from the ground before lifting her into his arms and taking her towards the healers for mending. There they waited, he stood where he could keep tabs on the happenings with the clutches and relay the information to her as she grit her teeth while the healers worked their magic.
Some more excitement took place, dragonets playing games amongst the candidates, but then it settled down again, just in time for the healers to release Haelwen from their care with a warning not to get too rowdy lest she rip open some of the deeper wounds again. At least she could continue standing, as long as she could bear the pain. With her brother at her side helping support her weight the woman made her way back towards the front of the candidates, nearly in the same spot she had been in originally, though not quite, avoiding the puddles of blood and ichor that had soaked into the Sands.
Alright now, where were they? Look at all the hatchlings! The twins cast fond looks across each and every hatchling and egg that remained unImpressed on the Sands sending fond thoughts towards them. They were all so beautiful and unique and it was lovely to meet them. If Haelwen leaned a little more heavily against her brother as time drew on he didn't say anything.

When the voice sounded in her head, for a brief moment Calla had looked confused. Where was... what was...? The little counting blue, who she hadn't even been one to respond to, was staring at her with the most wonderful rainbow of love in its eyes. The weight of his little paw was nothing compared to the weight that landed in her heart, sturdy and alive. Something solidified in her, and it felt nothing like she imagined. Because how could you imagine this sort of euphoria?
Her mouth fell open softly, head cocking gently to one side to observe this little one, this Mine of her own. Callamine? Florianth repeated, giving her hand a cat-like nudge with his face. Calla let her arm be lifted as he brought his head up to match her height. Carefully, the girl lifted her other hand and gently caressed the side of his face wordlessly. The dragonet let out of a purr of warmth and let the weight of his chin settle against her palm. The Sands that had held such anxiety and pressure for her melted away, and all that remained was this magical little creature, sending her waves of love and lifting her.
Her entire life, she had missed her father. And though she had always suspected it, it was in this moment that she realized she had been missing Florianth too. He was a piece of her that she simply had taken 16 Turns to discover. And she had known, had felt that this had to be the place for her, that these steps her father had trod were for her too. She was on the same Sands, Impressing like he had, and she would be a weyrling, a rider-to-be, just as he had.
Just, hopefully... no, definitely, without the same tragic result. She would curb her headstrong tendencies that had ruled her father; she would curb it in herself and in Florian.
I knew I'd find you, he said, closing his eyes and enjoying a gentle scratch along his eye ridge.
I knew you'd come, she said at last, feeling a connection as real and immediate as the blood in her veins, as solid as her bones.
The little blue placed his other paw on her leg, and with a definite sense of up, up! Calla did as commanded and brought Florian into her arms. He snaked his neck around hers, resting a chin on her opposite shoulder. It wasn't as dignified as either Calla or Florianth would typically prefer, but they had just found each other for the first time. A little mushiness would be accepted -- and, for both, secretly adored.
As Calla crossed to exit the Stands and join the other new pairs who had already begun feeding and oiling their dragons, she felt a sudden cool gaze on her. Florianth felt it too and lifted his head. There, in one of the first rows, apparently having entered not too long ago, stood her mother. (Her grandfather, too, but a few steps behind, looking shameful and distraught.) Calla stilled; she didn't want a scene.
"Mom," she said cautiously.
Tears slicked her mother's cheeks. She stared flat and broken at Calla, and then with marked hate and disgust, allowed herself a dragging glare at the blue dragon in her daughter's arms. A low rumble spilled out of Florianth's throat. "Mimsynna is dying," she began sharply, throat tight from crying. "I came to see her -- the old woman delivered you, you know. Loved you. She didn't even know you were here, did you know that? Did you know she was dying? Probably not, of course. If it isn't about you and what you want, why would you care?" Her arms folded across her chest, and Calla said nothing.
"It was going to be a surprise, me coming to see you. And it was. A surprise that you were not preparing to train as a harper, but were instead this." Her mother waved a dismissive hand and tossed something soft and knitted on the bench behind her. It looked like a gift from home, no doubt for Calla. "I hope you're happy."
Calla wasn't sure what she expected when her mom learned the truth. It had been hidden on purpose, but for good reason. She loved her mother. She just also believed that this was the path for her. And she had been right, hadn't she? "Mom, please... I wanted to tell you. I did. I just knew you wouldn't--" Her voice sounded thin, even before her mother cut her off.
"Wouldn't what, Calla? Be happy that my only daughter was returning to the place that took her father from us? I know you idolize the man -- easy, isn't it? To idolize the one who wasn't there to disappoint you. Because he was dead. Much easier to resent the one who took care of you, loved you, wanted you to live long and safe." An exasperated sigh tore from her mother, and Calla looked cautiously around. Please don't let the Candidatemaster hear this, or anyone really. They were speaking low, but body language alone made it clear the conversation was unpleasant. "This forsaken place. This obsession that your father had, that you have, is a sickness."
At this, Calla straightened and quieted the bubbles of defense from Florianth popping in her mind. "No, it isn't. Mom, it isn't. I was right that this was meant for me. And now I can be part of what keeps Pern safe -- what keeps you and all the other people I love safe. I am a part of something so much greater. Nothing has changed, not really. I'm still your daughter." Slowly, she eased Florianth back onto the Sands. He wrapped his tail around her and put his body between her and her mother, almost defensively.
A pregnant pause hung in the air between them. Calla started to reach out, to try something, to give comfort, but her mother took a step backward. "I had a daughter," she said with finality, an old sadness hanging heavy in each word. "But the Weyr has another disposable rider instead. It's taken everything from me now. Might as well let the Thread have me; it would be quicker." A sob caught in her throat, and she turned abruptly, stalking out of the cavernous Hatching Grounds without another glance.
It was the most wonderful moment in Calla's young life, finding her life's partner. And now... it felt ruined. She stood still, watching as her grandfather chased her mother out. Wordlessly, she reached out to pluck what her mother had brought from the bench. She'd look at it later. Her teeth worked her lip so hard to hold back the tears that she tasted blood. Florianth, for his part, was sending tidal waves of love and support (and subtle threats of willingness to maim) her way, but Calla's mind was quiet, far away.
Her only action was to lift the dragonet back into her arms, press her face into his warm hide, and stalk solemnly toward the other pairs. Let's get you fed, she said as warmly as she could manage to Hers. Her life's ballot had been cast, and it belonged to this blue. The choice was made. She would not allow herself to regret it.

Varinia
The rest of the hatching was going fairly okay. Most seemed content to start finding theirs instead of fighting amongst themselves or with the candidates. Varinia was so happy to see so many finally move off the sands though more eggs began to hatch and it seemed full once more with newly hatched dragons. She watched with a laugh as some hatched to announce their presence and then as two bronzes were hatched from the same egg! Wow! Shortly after them, was another gold, who hatched with her back towards the rest of the sands and the candidates which Vari thought was adorable. She wished them all luck silently at finding theirs without any mishaps.

Rahmi Ra’mi | He/Him | HR - IMPRESSION POST
The lanky teen has rejoined his friends and had been intently watching some of the various roaming dragonets finding theirs. He breathed a sigh of relief when Crucio called to Hers. He had been beginning to worry she wouldn’t make it. An amused titter escaped him at Expecto Patronum’s grand entrance and subsequent initiation of play with his dad. Another white has hatched and made quick work of finding theirs. The antics of mischievous You Can Fly has his grinning, though he did keep alert lest he need to deal with the playful baby. Imperio found his too! A flashy blue hatched not long after. The intermittent shifting of Wish Upon a Star has him wondering if the dragonets within was biding their time or needing to wait for something in particular. They’d hatch in time. Turning his head to peek around, Rahmi missed seeing the dragonet sit up out of his eggshell like one would their bed. Until...
’What a dream...Wow!’
Rahmi blinked owlishly and peered around. Had someone nodded off and was only just now waking up? Here?! At a Hatching as eventful as this one? Turning on the spot, he saw the Wish Upon A Star blue stretch and flap his wings gently free of his shell.
I dreamed we were flying, my Rahmi! You and me together, and oh! You told me such lovely things about all your dreams, and I told you about mine, and together, you, you and your Zidoleth made them all come true! But you know...I think doing it awake will be a lot more fun. Probably there will be less monsters to fight, all big and hairy, but even if there are, I know we can do it again, just like I dreamed we did!
As the dark starry blue trotted over to stand in front of him, the rush of adoration, delight at such vivid dreams, the love brought a blush to his face, and the teen laughed, very briefly hiding his face behind his hands before dropping into a squat in front of his dragon. His wonderful Zidoleth. Reaching out to cup his hands on either side of the blue’s face and kissed his long snoot. “Those sound like wild and wonderful dreams, Zidoleth, though I definitely look forward to sharing our dreams going forward. We’ll face whatever comes our way!”
Rising back up to his full height again, he looked to Rhiyn and Ionan, excitedly and vaguely gestured between himself and the blue next to him. “Good luck, you guys. I’ll catch up with you at the feast!” He reached out to brush his hand long his blue’s soft hide. “I know you’re feeling hungry, but I’d like to check on a friend of mine, okay, Zidoleth? I can introduce you real quick if she’s up for it.”
’A friend? We can go see! I am staaaarving, but we can take a moment.’
Quickly making their way off the sands, the pair made a brief detour to the healers to where Tizenia was laid up. The boy held a hand up to let Zidoleth know to let him approach first. “Tizzy, feeling okay? I’d like you to meet someone.” Looking back and gesturing the small blue to join him, he continued. “This is Zidoleth. He’s mine.”
The blue sniffed curiously at the girl. ’She’s wearing funny clothes, RahmiMine. Why?’
The odd observation made the boy clear his throat. ’Tizzy is wearing the same robes I am, she’s also been hurt and has been bandaged. She doesn’t normally look that way.’
Ra’mi sighed. “We can’t be too long. He’s hungry and we need to go join the others, but I still wanted to swing by to see if you were doing okay.”

Halvor
What was happening out on the sands? Just as he had asked the girl if she was ready and able to face the dragonets once more he found the sands erupt with dragons. So many eggs hatched at once! There was also a mass impression happening too. Halvor’s eyes widened slightly, which was quite the sight considering his scowling face remained in tact. Were those twins on the sands? Halvor wasn’t sure he’d ever heard of such a thing happening. Obviously it was possible but. . . Halvor latched onto the pair with rapt attention. There was also the newly emerged gold who seemed to be smitten with the candidates who briefly stole his attention before he once more focused on the twins.

arlie and smol alegriath
What seemed like a small wave of more weyrlings came in like the tide, and Alegriath was happy to babble about each as she nibbled on her cuts of meat; the noise seemed to be easing Arlie's anxiety some, anyway. Of course those three were sitting with each other, those (not so) little schemers! And this green sister, and that green sister, and her cousins, and another white! Oh, look at her sparkle like jewels!
Brother Aviforth, I was wondering when you would come! I'm so sorry I missed your grand entrance. Were they dazzled? Why, she was sure each clutch could be two wings at this rate! And wouldn't flying be so much fun? And on and one the white went like a happy burbling brook.
Why don't you invite the other whiterider over? Alegriath suggested.
Arlie made a soft, uncertain sound, and focused solely on cutting each piece of meat into identical pieces. The noise of conversation and human and dragon presences alike made her feel even smaller.
Well, that was okay! Let Hers do the talking for her until she felt better. Cousin Museth, Cousin, Faloth, hello! Alegriath chirped from atop Arlie's head, like some small, living, glittering crown. Would you and yours like to sit here? We're small and don't take up so much room. She saw another pair moving in and extended a warm thought to both. Hello, Cousin...
Alegriath paused, caught by how stately the woman and blue looked, and sighed dreamily at the latter. Cousin Florianth, she quickly picked up. Sit with us! Mine is shy, but she would love to meet you all!

Tarnaria let out a little hum, her eyes traveling to the... There was no way around it, that was definitely a corpse. "Less damage than that bronze did, that's for certain..." She watched for a moment as a few hatchlings Impressed, even one drawing the strange lady she'd noticed with white hair down from the stands. "She must be rich." Finally, a smile played across Tarnaria's face. "I haven't worked with V'mel yet, but I'm sure that lady's in for a real fun time."
At the question of standing, Tarnaria let out another hum. "I... Think I can?" She took a deep breath, preparing herself. "I'll have to try, won't I?" And hopefully, a baby didn't come barreling though to knock her back down! Shifting, she carefully began to rise, wobbling a bit.

Brushing her hands lovingly over the hatchling, Grey chanced a look at the sands. Oh, more had paired off, but they were of little concern to her... Though the pair of bronzes out of one egg was a curiosity. The white babies were certainly adorable, but they weren't nearly as gorgeous as her Canicheth.
Hers. Her own. Her dragon... And now her entire world.
And then Canicheth gave a snort.
"Did blood get in your nose, dearest?"
No, my sister is just being fashionably late.
Grey let out an amused sound, "My dearest one, you'll need to be more specific than that, you have MANY sisters."
Canicheth gave a sniff, eyes momentarily flashing red as she looked at the sands. I do mean, of course, HER. She's hard to miss amid my sisters. Her gaze turned to her dearest Mimusa, momentarily shifting red. I am far more beautiful than her, right?
For a moment, Grey looked at the newly-hatched dragon, a tiny little gold, then looked back at her dear little green. "Oh, my love... My sweet little Canicheth..." She sank down to hug the little dragon, "You are far more beautiful than ANY gold, and you are the single best Green on ALL of Pern because you are my beloved Canicheth."
The dragonet's eyes whirled from yellow back into an adoring violet, mixed with shades of green and blue. She gave a happy chirp, nuzzling into her Mimusa.

If anybody wishes to interract with Grey and Canicheth, they're open! Just know that only Canicheth and Pekoe, her loyal assistant, would know her name is actually Mimusa... Right now ninja
