Mohitani and Urmeerdouloth run into Dredos on the lake shore; he apologizes and the two (three?) come to a truce and agree to be friends.

( 'I was pretty much an ass after the hatching.' )

Mohitani runs into Il'ad again in the living caverns. This time, the two get a little more personal; Mo offers to teach him how to fish and the greenrider accepts.

( High Reaches has such beautiful cups. With interesting marks. Like little stains. And speckles. Fascinating. )

Mohitani and Nu leave S'lo and head to the caverns to get a warm drink. Unfortunately, Urmeerdouloth sees it as a perfect opportunity to set one of his grand plans into motion: Get them companions. And his first target? Il'ad, baby maker extraordinaire.

( /Kiss him/? No, Nu, no, no! I can't do that. )

Poking around in the barracks while going after a lost fishhook, Mohitani stumbles upon a conversation between Nu'ra and S'lo - and they chat of anything but that.

( Not listening. La-la-la! )

S'ton and Mo talk about Seacliffs, fellow weyrlings and dragons who borrow their riders' memories.

( Highlighting their mistakes and working harder will pay off, he says. )

Starving weyrlings snatch up a late dinner, Palia's entertaining, and Tosiekoth invents a new game for his clutchmates. Stolen, once again, from nulerak_ht.

( Bonding? Wing pride? Whazzat? )

Mohitani ruined Frusha's hatching with aplomb, all thanks to four limericks and the Impression of one blue dragon. She even gets a ring-shaped cut to show for it. Thank yoooou nulerak_ht!

( Why yes, that would be blood. )

Eggs hatch, candidates Impress and Mohitani unleashes the full force of her defiant unhappiness against Frusha, determined to leave immediately afterward. Unfortunately, Urmeerdouloth has other ideas!

( Hatching, complete with The Frusha Verses! )

Ending up on duty together to watch Kippy, Mohitani and Winston pass the time by fiddling with a pair of dice and asking one another questions, sometimes loaded ones. And they find out way more than they wanted to know about each other. Goinked from ht_winston

( I thought you were just some snotty upstart boy. )

Mo and Winston end up in the baths at approximately the same time. So, they chat. And Mo has to concede that maybe Winston isn't as bad as she initially thought. At least they see eye to eye in one matter. Log snitched from ht_winston.

( At least at home, I didn't have to stare at that abomination. )

Mohitani has her first encounter with High Reaches' personable Weyrwoman and gets insulted. A lot.
Thanks again to nulerak_ht for the log.

( Ew, formalities. )

Candidates chatter in the barracks and Mo discovers that Winston was brought in, too. Cue the disbelief. Log stolen and edited from nulerak_ht.

( Well, I'll be a fish's aunt. )

After Veriameth drags Mo to High Reaches Weyr to stand for the double clutch on the sands, the fisher meets Nulerak and some others in the caverns. Thanks to nulerak_ht for the log!

( Most folks just call me Mo. )

Mohitani meets Winston and doesn't think much of his airs. At all. Thanks to ht_winston for the log!

( Your boots are too shiny. )
