"I too would like to practice."  Sari gave K'lar a bright smile as she acknowledged, "A'drew is a wise choice for Wingleader, and also he will be strong but firm with the weyrlings."  Here Sari tilted her head a bit for a moment, then, after sending her green a mental hug,  reported with a grin, "Roni says to tell that A'drew will be great with the young, eager dragonettes as well, not to forget Zaranth."<br/><br/><br/>"Ronith and I are very pleased to be here at Western.  The space in the quarters is amazing.  I haven't had this much room to myself ever!"  Sari exclaimed, flinging her hands wide in her excitement.<br/><br/><br/>"There is much to do, and that is good when one first moves to some place new; it helps keep the mind from dwelling on the aching heart."  Sari's bright smile at that statement was belied by the rapid blinking of her eyes, and the pink tinge that spread from her throat to her cheeks.<br/><br/><br/>Sari swallowed hard and moved her gaze from K'lar's face for a moment.  She felt Roni's mindtouch,<em>"Is all well my own?"   </em><em>Sari could feel </em>the concern in Roni's tone.<br/><br/>Sending warmth to her dragon, Sari consols, "Do not fret dearheart, Just an old memory, nothing to be concerned about."<br/><br/>Sari suppressed a chuckle as Roni replied, "Oh, a memory.  Then it's not of too much import."<br/><br/>Being a creature who has very little use for what has happened in the past, the green settled back into her place in the sun.<br/><br/><br/>Returning her attention to K'lar, Sari's momentarily slip of composure now gone, Sari turns the topic to one of another serious matter.  "Rue'na's Aerith is getting proddy and will make a mating flight soon.  Do you know if she's found a secluded enough place to fly her without danger?"  Had Aerith been a green, Sari wouldn't be having this conversation with K'lar, but Aerith was a precious gold, and every egg important to the weyr.  Sari worried her bottom lip.  "I was present when Breeke and Kylara's Queens faught to the death.  It was the most horrible thing I have ever witnessed."  Sari couldn't suppress the shudder that rattled her frame.<br/><br/>Then, giving K'lar a wink, she wiggled her eyebrows and smirked, "Do you have any favorites among the dragons on whom you want to fly her?"<br/><br/>At this Roni broke in with, "<em>Oh, I think R'cas's Iantoth</em>."  Roni refused to explain further, for her, Just that it was good was reason enough.<br/>Sari couldn't help but agree.<br/>
