Daze began to preen again. If she had a mirror she would be posing for it. Just wait till she is older, Hanen thought, I'll have to get rid of all her little suitors. "Yes, they are special. Daze thinks herself very important..." The little green peered down at him. She wanted to sit on his shoulder. "Daze what did mother say? Exactly. You can't come down, you have caused too much of a rucuous in here, previously. Its your own fault the cooks don't like you."
He smiled at Verity. Trying to remember what time he was supposed to be at the beastcrafters. "I actually think I had better be going. Can't be late for training." Hava took over HAnen's jobs. Letting Verity help Orfinion, without complaint. She had not expected so much help. Daze flew from her perch landing beautifully on Hanen's right shoulder.

Monara watched as another Candidate came in to work, and then a Hanen left. MOnara reached down into the barrel but came up empty. She stared down into the barrel slightly astonished the three girls had finished so fast.
"We're done." Monara stated as she searched for her flit. "I beeter be going, I want to bathe before I go to the beach." Monara smiled at Rylene and Zylaera and then with a sigh called for Kye. "KYE!!" She shrieked. With a chirp he was hoverig over her head, looking the part of a hastily woken and annoyed flit. Kye hissed at Monara before landing on her right shoulder, she just smiled nd with a wave to every one n th kitchens left. _____________________ "Bye Hanen" Rylenewaved to him and Daze and then turned back to her chore.
Rylene had just finished her last tuber when Monara spoke. "Alright then, I guess the chores over. Bye Monara." She watched as the dark haired girl left the kitchnes with her grumpy flit. An interesting pair for sure. Rylene took the bin of scraps and dumped them for a Drudge to throw out later.
"Well I guess I'm gonna go and....well I don' really have anything to do for once. What are you doing after this Zylaera?" Rylene looked questioningly at Zylarea trying to think what she would have to do later on.

Verity blushed as she was pulled into a very strong hug. "Ok, what do you want me to do?" Having never really worked in the kitchens before, she was completely lost. Now, if they were in the Infirmary, she would know exactly what to do. However, that was not the case. "So many flits....Do you think Noamis and Laertes could go sit with Veryt?" She felt out of place in the kitchen....everyone else seemed to know what was going on.

Zylaera shrugged, she really didn't think much farther ahead than five minutes. "I dunno...maybe go get a bubbly pie or something. My parents want to have some family time so i might be tieid up in torture." She threw her hands up in exasperation. Zylaera finished the last of her roots and put them in the pot. "I'm done as well. I'll be out in a second but first i'm gonna feed Sudi. The smells in here are making her hungry." She got a little bowl and filled it with meat chunks letting Sudi eat. She wave to her friends as they left.

Orfinion loosened his hold but kept his arm drapd loosely around her waist. "Of course. Veryt always likes company." He motioned towards the little Bronze sleeping soundly by the hearth. Seeing the confusion in her eyes he gave her a reassuring look. The kitchens were overwhelming to newcomers. Without words he demonstarted whta he was doing; chop off the course and umsattisfactory ends of the stems, pat the herbs dry and fasten them by their ends to the herb rack. "There you go. Not to hard." He grinned at her. She looked so cute he just couldn't stop smiling.

Verity started to copy what Orfinion was doing, going extremely slow to make sure she was doing it right. "I think I have it...." She trailed off, concentrating on what she was doing. She blushed; she could only do half as many herbs as Orfinion could in the same amount of time. He's going to laugh at me when we leave here. A girl who has never been in the kitchens before, what will he think?
Laertes and Noamis, her two very social flits went over to Veryt and tried to wake him up. Verity knew they were having fun, picking on the bronze, but she also knew that they were going to get her into trouble. "No, lay down and go to sleep. If you're good, I will get you some meat scraps, including some finsh for you, Noamis." After their scolding, the two settled down. Slowly but surely, their eyes closed and they fell asleep.

Veryt let out a squak when the two blues woke him from his nap. They may be his ewual in size but he was still a Bronze. However, he quickly fell back asleep. He was extremely laid back and was never fazed for long. He felt the two blue bodies sleeping soundly near him and let out a happy, fire lizardy sigh.
Orfinion laughed at his little flits behabior before turning back to Verity. "You are doing a great job. Don't worry if you are kind of slow at it. You are doing better then i did at first. You are a natural," He praised her. She looked so cute fumbling with the herbs. The fact that she couldn't cook seemed to turn him on even more. Hormones work in strange ways.

"Are you sure? I can't quite....get the......GAH!" Verity let out a small yelp when she cut herself. Quickly and efficiently, she closed the wound, ceasing the blood flow. Tearing off a piece of her shirt, she tied it around the cut. "Alright, I think I'll try again, maybe I'll get it this time." Verity continued to cut and wash the herbs, this time even slower so that she wouldn't cut herself.
Laertes and Noamis were sleeping peacefully untill they heard the small cry. Flying over to Verity to see if she was alright, they managed to brush Orfinion's head with their wings. "You two can go lay back down. I'm fine......I may not be very good at cooking, but I do know how to take care of myself." The two flew back next to Veryt, doing what they were told. Laertes chirped at Verity, scolding her for not being careful.
Flashes went through her mind of a night long ago. For some unknown reason, the words she had spoken, and the cut she had inflicted upon herself brought back a horrible memory. She tried to push the thought from her mind, but a look of grief and pain showed clearly on her face.

Orfinion immediatly stopped his work at Verity's yell. He noticed the red blood blossoming fro ma sliced finger. Oh no! He immediatly leaned over to help her even though she seemed to be coping fine on her own, "Oh Verity! Are you all right?" He asked in a worried tone. When she began working again he lade hia hand on her arm telling her to stop. "I can finish this up later. You should get that to a healer to make sure it doesn't get infected.
His attention was taken when he felt wings brushinghis head. They didn't phase him though. He looked carefully into the girls face and could see the pain there. It sickened him to see it and he wanted it to stop. He pulled at her motionng her to stop. "C'mon Verity. You've done enough. Lets go." He looked at her pelasingly. The kitchen obviously wasn't the right place for her right now.

Verity let a single tear run down her cheek. "Alright."
She let Orfinion finish the work and she headed out to "the healers." Since she knew what she was doing, she would just go to get it checked.
"I'm sorry I couldn't be more helpful in the kitchen."
She walked away, hoping someday she would be able to put a memory behind her.

Orfinion put a protective arm around her and brushed the tear from her eye. "You were a great help Verity. Now lets go get it checked out and then we'll relax a bit." He smiled, as if reading her thoughts. Something had bothered her in the kitchens and he didn't want it on her mind for the rest of the day. He gave her a reassuring smile and walked her out of the kitchens.
