Graduation [October 20th, 2001]
Graduation Day! The Wildfire Wing Weyrlings become full riders.
G'deon has idly been lounging off to the side, quite happy to just lean against the stony wall of the central bowl and watch as people begin milling about. At last, however, he shifts the satchel slung over a shoulder against his back and peeks inside, perhaps doing one last mental count. Satisfied, he gives one fleeting roguish smile and begins heading towards the young group of leatherclad riders. "Wildfire wing!" he calls out, baritone carrying quite easily. "Front and center! Let's make a nice, neat line now..."
::Between::!! [September 6th, 2001]
Finally got to go between!
:::BETWEEN!:::
You hang, senseless, in the dark nothingness of ::between::... absolute darkness surrounds you, and the profound cold stings you... you wait, and count...

Blacker...

Formation Flying [September 2nd, 2001]
Best laid out plans for Mneoth and Khena to have an entire morning to have the entire morning to themselves are disrupted by a lesson in formation flying.
R'sli stands in the middle of the muddy Training Grounds, tugging at the straps on Zaqith's hide. "Is this everyone?" he asks, not turning around. "Right. Everyone check their straps for wear and make sure that they're good and snug. You've done short flights before, but this lesson is going to be a bit of turning and things that will be new to you." He turns, and leans against his lifemate. "Now, to review. Who can tell me the three most-used formations?"
Mounted Flight [September 1st, 2001]
An early morning lesson in mounted flight.
"Well, if you're ready, mount up and strap in." Grin lolls lazily on Ilare's features, even as Khena is beckoned to join them. "Good morn, Necha. Get Mneoth strapped up and you strapped on - we're flying." Or rather, the weyrlings sit and the dragons take off. Simple, yes?
Advanced Anatomy and Dragon-only Flight [August 28th, 2001]
A class in Advanced Anatomy turns into the dragons' first flight. Alone, without their riders..
G'deon watches the Weyrlings closely before grinning up at his lifemate. That's not a roguish grin in anyway. Noooo. "All right, very good," he says, walking among the weyrlings and dragons slowly. "Especially concentrate on those stretches today. Your 'mates will need them since they're all on the go-list for flying today."
ChantiDance?! [August 24th, 2001]
Khena finds out, to her utter dread, that her lifemate has been spending time with a certain older brown..
Mneoth emits a quiet bugle, eyes now dancing merrily as he gives Khena an adoring look. The brown suddenly hunkers down on all fours before leaping forward, folded wings flashing past his rider's shoulders before he repeats the earlier maneuver and stands on his hind legs again.
Dragaerobics.. and such [August 17th, 2001]
A few 'lings encountered P'rru and brown Dsalth one early morning in the Training Grounds..
[...]"Right. If Cerdith was to be any fruit. What would he be?" don't laugh for Purr looks completely serious. Even Dsalth is silent, as if holding his breath in bellow lungs for the response.[...]
Ground Formations [August 17th, 2001]
The 'lings get their first lesson in formation flying. On the ground, that is.
Reiko just... tries to pay attention. The questions go by her like so much noise, she's only listening for the answers. Mount. Okay. She passes a silent thought to Cerdith, who lifts a forelimb to assist her.
Making Straps [August 10th, 2001]
One early morning, Khena was awakened by her lifemate, telling her something was amiss in the Barrack. Turns out it was 'just' R'sli teaching a couple of weyrlings how to make straps.
R'sli laughs, and holds up his hands. "All right, all right," he says, and stands up. "So, you want to know how to color the leather, do you? Well, I think more than a couple of you are familiar with the dye buckets over there." He crosses, and drags one forward.[...]
Basic Anatomy [August 7th, 2001]
The weyrlings get their first lesson in how to care for their lifemates, how to purge them if they eat too much, etc.
Reiko makes a face, having learned this one from experience, but a smirk curls her lips as she answers. "For when nature needs a little /help/." A plaintive croon from Cerdith softens her expression, and she shoots her dragon an apologetic glance. "It's not your fault, dear."
Exploration [August 3rd, 2001]
"Into the great wide open..." Mneoth convinces Khena that /now/ is the time to go find out what the World looks like.
You sense Mneoth brings himself to his feet quickly, quite eager to be off now that a new mission has been given him. >> Yes, I do not mind being in this place, since you are here. But fresh air would be so good right now << he comments patiently, waiting for your lead. After all, he has no clue where they'll be going.
Weyrlings in the Morning [July 30th, 2001]
Getting accustomed to a new presence in your life isn't always easy. The dragonets have to be fed, washed and oiled. /All/ the time!
One last dismembered pillow goes flying out of the couch, landing with a thud in the pool, stuffing flying everyone. Hiza suddenly awakens with a start, and looks around, calling, "Raevs?" before realizing where she is.
Post Hatching [July 29th, 2001]
Candidates Impressed and became Weyrlings with lifemates attached to them. After the Hatching some of them came together in the barracks to talk.
X'ner squirms and prods at bronzed hide. "Nez! Wakeuuuup. Get off!" Nez just snores louder. "Oh quit it, I know you're awake." He bounces a little. "C'mon I'm gonna lose feeling in my legs or something." A growl comes from the dragonet. "Yeah yeah. So?" Thbbbbt. Dragon moves, sitting up on his haunches, and glowers at his lifemate. Snort.
