And from the void, a new person appears, Open.

[Squishie]

Thank you for the ride, and and fare well 'til next time! Zayveir took a few more steps from the blue dragon as she lowered her hand in farewell and used it to cover her eyes from the swirling dust it caused. Once everything began to settle, Zayveir reached about and opened the flap of her satchel and used both hands to pull out a furry little creature. A disgruntled squeak came from it and with it, Zayveir brought the animal up to her right shoulder and kept her hands there until the creature settled itself. Another set of squeaks emitted from it, and it wasn't until some drudges from what could've been the kitchen area was making their way toward the Journeyman, eyes adverted downwards.

As the first one approached, Zayveir nodded her head, Rhust's beady black eyes watching the two drudges with little curiosity. Thanks for your assistance. If you wouldn't mind taking these to the quarters I've been assigned, it would be much appreciated. With a friendly smile offered, Zayveir watched the two drudges take her bags and head off in the direction of where she would be staying for her term at Sebeka.

With that done, Zayveir rummaged her satchel and pulled out some dried meat, breaking off a piece and putting the rest away, she offered it up to the tunnelcat, who had been staring the drudges for the longest time, before sniffing the food and eagerly chewing it with mild contentment. Take a good look, Rhust. This will be home for the next five turns. Spinning about a couple times, Zayveir started by looking up to admire the scenery of the weyrbowl. No need to rush things. If anything, if she waited long enough, someone was bound to come over and introduce her around. If not, then it just meant that she'd have to start on her own and discover things out by herself.

Leaf was flying throughing weyrbowl... the little firelizard was not normally by herself at least in this manner, and usally had Andol following right behind her in plain view, but this was not the case. The litle green then noticed the new person whom had showed up and was now dancing around it seemed in the middle of the weyrbowl. The green firelizard circled around the girl for a little bit in circles that got smaller and smaller, and very soon she was really close. The green was trying to see if she knew this human and her little furry thing, but she realized she did not. She chirped a greeting, in what was a playful attitude, but all of a sudden that quickly changed. She hissed and the girl and then landed in front of her, spreading out her wings as she contiuned to hiss in a very ferice manner. This was obviously one angry green. Yet Leaf could tell her Andol was near and this human had to be ethier ran off, or made to wacth herself. She wanted this human thing to know what she would have to answer to if she hurt her Andol.

Andol though was wacthing he sence form the shadows, and unlike he normally would have done, he did not move in instantly to try and and stop the green form her action. He wacthed this new person as he was trying to get a read on her, but form what he could tell she seemed to be someone who might be extermally annoying. For what purpose did one have to just spin around in middle of the weyr... such a think seem quite foolish to him. Yet he was not going to verbally critize her for it... yet he would do it mentally all day long. He also noticed the tunnelcat that was sitting on her shoulder. That was insterting, becuase he had not really seen very many people who had those.

Yet he eventally diecded to approch before somthing happened and Leaf scared the girl away. Andol did want to socialize with her so he walked foward and seemed to apper form the shadows where he had been hiding and has he got closer to the new girl he said, "Alright Leaf you can calm down now sweety... I am sure she won't do anything to me." He hoped that she did not get the impression he had Leaf do that on purpose and said he said, "Sorry about that, she is very protective... a little too protective actually." The little green hopped and half flew to land on Andol's chest, and clung to it, before turning around to give another hiss to this new human... whom was not getting off that esay, "Well my name is Andol, what is yours." His demenor did seem someone cold, but that was becuase he didn't know her egough, and she didn't have any flits or was not a dragon rider, which quickly brought out his more warm and firendly side.

[Squishie]

It was the appearance of the green flit that caught Rhust's attention. Having already swallowed her bite of food, she watched as the green firelizard made its way in a happily chirping mood, so much as chirpinga form of greetings. While the tunelcat didn't do anything, other than watch disdainfully, Zayveir watched with some muse at the green's antics. Before the Journeyman could do anything, such as pull out a bit of meat for the little thing, the green flit had begun making tighter and tighter circles before going off in a hissing fit as it then landed in front of her, wings apart and a very angered look. At the sudden change of attitude, Rhust went from disgruntled to defensive as she, herself, hissed a slight warning back to the green firelizard. Let it come at her Walker, it would definitely not like the bite it would get from an angry tunnelcat.

Hush, Rhusty. I'm fine, the thing is probably being protective of something. Much like something you do. Zayveir reached about and grabbed the tunnelcat around the waist and tucked it in the left crook of her arm, stroking it calmly with her free hand, and yet watching, waiting for whomever owned the creature to call it off.

When someone did finally call of the angry firelizard, Zayveir crooked a brow at the male figure, and the firelizard that now clung to the front of his shirt. When an apology came, Zayveir shrugged it off, Nothing to be overly concerned about. She didn't attack, and I'm pretty sure any animal that's been carefully cared for would react the same. A firm nod confirmed her words as she allowed Rhust to claim her usual spot over her shoulders. And it's a pleasure to meet you, Andol. I'm Zayveir, the Journeyman Harper transfer. While Andol didn't offer it, Zayveir knew it was proper etiquette, and offered her right hand in a gesture of friendship/peace.

[Yamamoto]

Andol stood there and contiuned his examination of the girl... his eyes where moving up and down her body to size her up, in the most unashamed manner possiable... there had been a few cases where he had been mistaken for actually 'checking out' a female rather that just simply sizing her up based on apperance. It was not what he ment to look like he was doing, it was simply the way that he came across somtimes. He looked at the little creature on her shoulder and immedantly became instersting in it, becuase he had never had much experiance with tunnelcats and it just looked so fluffy and cute that he wanted to cuddle it. So without much pause he asked her curiously, "You don't your tunnelcat would mind if I held it do you, or at least pet it. I have never really had much of a chance to be close to one, and I would like to get a better look at it if you don't mind." He was extermaly polite in the manner of his speaking and it was a stark contrast form before... she had a pet that he found insterting, so he his side that prefered these creatures to humans was starting to show it self.

Leaf heard this, and moved up to her pet's shoulder, just incase he was allowed to do what he had asked to do. She still didn't trust this girl, but if she allow Andol to hold the furry thing, and that made him happy, she was not going to do anymore hissing that might make the furry thing angry. She did not want spoil Andol's chances. The green might have been very overprotective, but there where times when she seemed to cacth the hint that she should stop. Of course that was usally during the times that Andol was trying to get close to somthing that was not human.

Andol's eyebrows raised though when he heard that the other was a Journymen harper... just like himself. For the first time in the conversation a very small smile appered on his face, though it dissapered just has quickly has it had come. Andol was never one to smile much for those he did not know, "Well well that certianly is intresting, becuase you see I too am a Jounrymen Harper. May I ask when it was that you walked the tables, becuase I hate to say it that I don't remember you." He obviously didn't mean it has a insult, he just did not. Then again Andol did not know alot of people so there where plenty of people whose faces that he could say that he indeed could not remember. Looking at her he awaited an answer, and the fact that she had gained a lot of respect form him, becuase he now thought better of her, sinice she was a educated person such as himself. So the preformace form before that he had disliked seeing was slowly being forgotten.

[Squishie]

While Zayveir kept calm about the pair, she remained cool and collected. When asked that Andol wanted to hold Rhust, she almost held her breath. She knew that Rhust didn't bode well with other people, let alone people who had firelizards. So the answer was obviously, but Zayveir could think of a way around. Picking up her tunnelcat with care, she then looked over at the other person. You have to be very careful when handling her. She doesn't really like to be touched by other people, and she definitely doesn't like firelizards.. Zayveir apologetically looked to the green firelizard still perched upon the boy's shoulder. If you wouldn't mind having your friend leave your side for a bit, Rhust shouldn't be as bad to handle. She held the tunnelcat with support of both hands, ready to hand her over when the firelizard took to the air. Surely he wouldn't hold her for that long, as she wasn't sure how Rhust would react. Another thing, keep her close to your body. She won't take a liking to you should she fall.

It was interesting that the green flitter remained slightly calmer at the request of Andol for holding Rhust. But Zayveir was somewhat unsure that she should allow another person to hold her beloved pet. But, from one Harper to another, she was willing to risk it. Be good. She whispered as she finally offered the creature over. She was interested, as well, that she was in contact of another fellow Journeyman. I walked three turns ago. At the age of eighteen. I was mostly taking instrumentation as well as leadership skills. She didn't want to admit that she wasn't exactly talented in the singer area, where most Harpers were, but what she lacked vocally, she made up instrumentally.

[Yamamoto]

The way Andol's eyes seemed to light up at her answer to wethier or not he could hold the creature was actually quite cute. It was obvious he was very excited about being able to do so.... and his eyes shifted in the direction of his firelizard, and Leaf quickly flew up and dissapered, only to reapper out of sigh, but where she could wacth her human pet, and make sure he was still going to be ok. She understood the fact that it was best to leave, becuase she did not want to distrub the little furry thing and ruin her bonded's chances at being able to hold this creature which she could tell he found quite intersting. Andol waited until Leaf was out of sight, before his eyes turned back to look at the creature in wonder, "Please don't worry, I promise that I will be very very gentle with her. I have always had a way with creatures... I will be careful." He was not going to do anything that would hurt Rhust, espcially sinice he wanted the creature to like him and maybe let him hold it again in the very near future, if he found Zayveir to be good friend material.

Reaching out he took the little creature into his arms and held it close to his body making sure to give her pently of support. He did not want it to fall. A soft and extermaly affectionate smile crossed his face as he looked at Rhust and he seemed to become lost in his own little world. He found the creature to just be so darn cute, though not at cute as Leaf, but still really really cute. He began to pet the the tunnelcat, and gently began to scrath it's head. He had completely forgotten that the owner was standing across form him for a moment, and he hoped that the creature which he was holding in his arms actually enjoyed him holding it. Everytime he thought about the idea of this very sweet creature falling he held her closer, though did not squezze at all. He just did not want to see such a bad thing happen, even if it did not hurt the creature all that much.

He looked over at her when she spoke about her being Harper and said, "I walked the tables about two years ago. It wasn't really long after I turned eighteen. I mostly studied history, and anything I could about our dragonic friends.... plus I compose balleds, well I was trained to anyway. My singing or insterment playing was just never very good." He chuckled at this thought, "Of course they wanted me to stick around and keep moving up the ladder, but I much rather be here anyway, around the creatures I am so intersted anyway.... So any particular reason for you being here anyway." He was curious, becusae it seemed to be somthing that one could refuse, but he did not see why anyone would, but still that was how it was. Therefore people had to have movtivations for being here.

[Squishie]

As Rhust was carefully transferred to Andol's care, Zayveir couldn't help but feel slightly bad about having had to send the little green firelizard away, but such was the what had to happen if Andol wanted to hold the tunnelcat. As she watched how carefully the other person gave to Rhust, she couldn't help but smile. She trusted Rhust enough that she wouldn't cause any harm, especially when she took precautions with the 'lizard. Though, it wouldn't be long until the tunnelcat would start to fidget a bit due to being held too long by a stranger. But surprisingly enough, Rhust merely remained still, absorbing the heat being generated through her own fur being held closely to the boy's chest. An occasional squeak would be emitted, though everytime that did happen, it would normally be loud enough to where her sides heaved about Andol's very hands.

I think she likes you enough, but don't think too much on that.. Zayveir quietly told Andol, her eyes remaining slightly cautious on the tunnelcat should he do something that Rhust might not like. Such a good girl! She finally said to the held tunnelcat, as she reached to give the creature a good scratching between her ears. At that, the tunnelcat couldn't help but set off a series of squeaks as eyes closed and it dug happily some toward Andol's chest.

After giving some positive reinforcement for being so good, Zayveir looked toward Andol after he had finished his statements of when he walked, as well as what he studied. She nodded her head once finished, but had scrunched her nose a bit when asked why she was here. Well, with Sebeka being a just growing Weyr, I thought I could expand my knowledge and make my way here. I've been told some stories of previous Harpers that came this way since it's creation, and wanted to come see it for myself. That and why not come to a just starting out Weyr? Zayveir straightened up and glanced at the weyrbowl with interest showing in her shining eyes before turning them once more back at Andol and Rhust. If you don't mind, I think Rhust would like to take a nap in her sack. She didn't know if Andol wanted to put the tunnelcat in her satchel, or if he was going to give her back, but whichever the case, Zayveir opened up the main flat, revealing a fur-lined inner pouch big enough for the tunnelcat to curl up in a peaceful manner.

So, I take it your a candidate here? Changing the subject, Zayveir's tone brightened. She knew that there were only a handful of the apprentices and occasionally Journeymen who were Searched out in the Harper Hall, but she never expected one to be living at Sebeka.

The young man was now in his own little world holding the creature. He looked into it's cute little eyes and just smiled, all the while wondering if maybe he needed to get himself a tunnel cat. Andol had always wanted a family, but his idea of a family was a dragon, a weyrmate, and a whole bunch of firelizards. Yet maybe he could also add to that list, a tunnel cat. It was just so cute and he quitelly wishpered, "You are just the cutest thing ever." He smile at the little creature who looked up at him, and just continued to scarth it's head. He looked up at the girl who was across form him and said to her in a matter of fact manenr, "Your very lucky... she is the cutest thing. Though I am not so sure, she seems like she likes me egough." He hoped that the tunnelcat did, becuase the young man enjoyed it when the little creatures like this liked him. To him they where more improtant has friends than any person was.

He found that they would never lie to you, or be jugdemental. They ethier liked you or they didn't. When they did though he found them to be the most loyal friends that he had. Which was the reason that he loved Leaf so much and that was the reason she was the center of his world and always would be. He looked up towards the girl and nodded his head in agreement, "You could say that I am here for the same reason. I just wanted to get away form harper hall really... becuase there where just to many people there who trying to make me in into a Master Harper, or grooming me to be one as I would like to say it. Of course I didn't want that so I came here and hopefully I can become a rider and won't have to worry about that anymore." He just shrugged his shoulders as he let out a sigh hoping that she would indeed understand his reasoning for doing it. He did not like being made into somthing that he did not wish to be.

When he realized that he would have to give the little creature back he pouted a bit, becuase of his relucants to do so. Yet he care more about Rhust comfort than anything else, "Ok then just hold still so I can make sure I get her in there." The young man moved closer and gently reached out and slipped the creature into the bag with a soft smile, "Rest well little Rhust." She was just so darn cute. Yet he found her question on wethier or not he was a candidate to be a redundent one, but he did not say anything and went ahead and answered her, "Yes indeed I am. I have been here for a couple of sevenweeks, and the place sure is nice, and I like it better becuase there are not has many people as there would be at a larger weyr. Yet that means less dragons to." He sounded sad as he spoke the last part, becuase Andol really enjoyed being around the dragons....... alot.
