The man's lips were so parched they looked about ready to crack. She was not about to be his water girl no matter how pathetic he looked. Her calm exterior remained broken only by nods of understanding. She hoped her little weave refreshed him slightly but it was clear that he needed more and since she had no idea about his recent healing she could only assume it was normal fatigue. At that moment she became aware of some of the eyes fixed on them. With passive impartial gaze she turned her head as if simply looking across the training grounds, all eyes quickly averted. Beautiful or otherwise, when an Aes Sedai looked in your direction you got back to work.. even if she was still just an Accepted. Only the Gaidin, Valar, and Master's would dare to continue staring. She paid no mind to them, men of a certain age would not be swayed even by the sternest Aes Sedai. "<em>All bull calves</em>," she mused thoughtfully in near whisper.<br/><br/>"If you're hungry and parched then let's see to it first. I'll join you," Ishara insisted. It was most likely improper and the cook was likely to have a heart attack seeing one of the women in his mess hall but there you have it, Ishara in a nutshell. Just one of the boys.. a long legged, pale blond, wildly dressed, in your face tomboy / would-be Aes Sedai.<br/><br/>Motioning for him to lead the way she would talk as they walked, "Why not consider that perhaps the Master meant in practicing expertise you could find courage. I mean it's better to know you are good and understand your limitations then to be blindly courageous. Is it not?" That sounded like a question but she had a way of making it come out as more or less a statement of fact. "Hurry along with whatever you have to do. If you take any longer they'll feed the leftovers to the pigs before you get there."
