Welcome to Gaia! ::

At the end of the far hall on the Ground Level of the Weyr lie the Weyrling rooms. There are two doors opposite each other. The one on the right leads to the girl's chambers and the one of the left leads to the boy's. If one looks into either the girl's or the boy's they will see the first two weyrling rooms, one on each side or the door. Each one hold a bed, piled with hides, a chest and a table and chair. Also is a large open area with straw and hides for the growing dragons. Each room is separated with a wall of stone. There are 25 rooms in both the girl's and boy's area.

A piece of hide it on the wall at the end of the corridor, were it is obvious that notices are there often. It reads:

Welcome new Weyrlings!! The door to the right is the for the girl's and the left is for the boy's. If I find out that there has been any fights over sleeping areas, I'll come down and knock some heads together. Weyrling Training starts tomorrow! It's The Developmental Needs of Dragons. It starts at 7 sharp and if any of you are a moment late, I'm going to have your hide, you dragon is to important to have his/her hide. My Danarth will give you a thirty minute warning, so you have no reason to be late!!

~V'nar

Also, I have left you a Weyrling handbook on everyone's bed, I expect you to have at least skimmed over it before we meet for the first time.

((Ug. I'm an idiot sweatdrop ...this isn't soposed to be an OOTL thread...sorry Ninniach_Wen, you can edit your post.))

Ailene entered the Weyrlings Barracks and headed for the door on the right, where she had left Lith sometime before. Pausing t read the note that now hung off to the side, Ailene snorted. What kind of WeyrlingMaster do we have anyway!? No one schedules classes that early on the morning after Hatching. And we have to read the book! Talk about a slave driver.

And rolled her eyes as she entered the barracks and contimplated just ignoring it all. But then, garented V'nor would be asking her all the questions tomorrow. Singling her out, just as he had tonight. She had two years to deal with him, and already seemed to be on bad footing.

Pushing V'nor out of her mind, she started looking into the different weyrs trying to see if Faris was in one of them.

Ailene turned from the room she was looking in to see Faris standing outside of one of the rooms a little bit further down. Ailene smiled at her and took a few more steps her way, trying not to come too close as Faris seemed nerveous. "Hi, Faris. How are you doing? I just wanted to see how you were doing. Make sure you got everything taken care of with the Weyrwoman, and all that." Ailene paused for a moment, running her fingers through her hair.

"Shards. I'm just nosey is all," she stated, looking slightly embrassed. "And I wanted to congradulate you on Impressing. A green, right?"

"Then I should be really glad I'm not frm there." Ailene said leaning against one doorway. Then, turning serious, Ailene looked Faris in eyes, "You don't have to worry about things like that anymore. Though the fact that people actually live with those kinds of worries turns my stomach."

Ailene left her eyes locked with Faris just long enough to hopefully get the girl to understand how truely angery she was of people like that before lowering her gaze and looking around the room. Spotting on of the manuals on a nearby bed, Ailene changed the subject. "Whatcha' think about V'nar making us read the Weyrling manual tonight?"

K'lian sat half up, heavily lidded eyes betraying the fact that he just came out of a light sleep. He had a good vantage point from his alcove in the back of the boys' barracks.

Shells and shards, now there's a bunch of fools in here. Ugh, living with all of these guys is going to kill me. He flopped back down behind the still sleeping, faintly snoring Lillith.

Ailene was really suprised by the tone in Faris's voice. She hadn't done any thing to warrant it, or at least she didn't think she did. And it seemed clear to her that Faris really didn't understand what position she was in now that she had impressed.

"Look, I didn't mean to make you mad or anything. All I was trying to say was that I was sorry for what you used to have to go through. That's all. Though I don't think you should worry about them coming and taking you, or anything. They can't." Ailene leaned forward as she stessed the word. "You have.... I'm sorry, I don't know her name yet, but you have your dragon now. And I really doubt she'd let anything happen to you. She might not look like much now, but in a few months she'll be something to strike fear into anyone that would try to hurt you. And you always have the Weyr to back you. You aren't alone anymore."

Ailene stopped, realizing she may have pushed this too far. She hadn't planned to come in here and preach at her. She had just wanted to make sure that everything had worked out, and all.

"You know what? Forget it." She said as she turned slowly to move down the hall to the weyr that Lith had taken. "You don't have to listen to me. You probably just think I'm full of hot air anyways. Maybe if I walk away now, we can forget this happened and I wouldn't have completely ruined any chance of being your friend."

((I know that most people are walking softly around Faris's feelings, but Ailene just isn't that kind of person. Sorry. *shrugs*))

((Sorry It's taking me so long to post. And acctuly Faris will resond more to you bossing and being mean then if you were nice anyway.))

Faris looked after the girl and facepalmed herself. I'm an idiot. I can't belive I just did that. She's right. The dragonriders with protect me, at least they will try. Faris shook her head and walked over to the 'room' the girl had walked in. She leaned against the opening. "Graneth." she said, not sure weather she should leave or not.

((Don't worry about it, I'm just terribly impatient. xd ))

Looking up from the manual at the sound of Faris's voice,, "Uh?? What??" Ailene was somewhat confused at what seemed to be an almost random comment from Faris. Then she remebered that Faris was answering her round about question of what her green's name was.

"Graneth." Ailene repeated, moving to sit up on her bed, a smile starting to grow on her face. "That's a good strong name." Ailene closed her manual, grateful to have found an excuse as to not be reading it right now. "Well, Faris, Rider of green Graneth, welcome to Xavern Weyr."

Ailene held her hand out for the girl to shake, ready to drop it if the moment became too akward.
