Hanen woke early. The creche was so quiet that he feared the sound of his breathing would wake one sleeping brat or another. Daze was sleeping still so he did not wake her and left her in the creche. Quickly putting his work clothes on he tip toed out into the rest of the caverns. Once far enough away he slipped on his boots which he ahd been carrying in his hands.
Walking to the latrines he quickly began to clean the men's side. It was a disgusting job but he had traded with someone else so that they could sleep in and do his afternoon chore. That chore happened to be helping with the creche's laundry. First he cleaned out the area and made sure nothign was in disrepair. Then afterwards he scrubbed everything including the floors. What a menial job this was, not to mention disugusting.
Looking around the corner he started to clean the women's latrine. No one else would be up at this hour. The sun had yet to rise and most dragons were not up at night. If he were one of them he would sleep till daylight as well. Holding the mop steadily in his right hand he took another stab at cleaning a rotten stain on the cavern floor.

Zylaera went into the Creche in a huff. How come she got assigned to the nastiest chore. She did smile a little though, when she saw who her chore partner would be. "Hanen!" She whispered excitedly. She was happy to see him but the creche was so silent she felt raising her voice wasn't the greatest thing to do right now. "So...it looks like you got this too." She wrinkled her nose a little at the smell of the latrines.
She bundled her long silky hair up in a an old hankerchief and picked up a cleaning rag on the table beside her. "Let me help you with this," she said to the other Weyrbrat. She began to clean the womens latrines alongside the tall lad. She couldn't help but be extremely grossed out by this chore, however she was a competitive person, and the simple fact that Hanen was doing the chore without complaint would mean she would do the same

"Fancy meeting you here Zylaera. Actually I was not scheduled for this chore. Swutched with someone so they would take my afternoon one. I have to go work with the beasstcrafter all afternoon. I would hate to miss out. I really dislike this chore so the sooner it gets done and over with the better.
Scrubbing the floors did take a lot out of person. Hanen hated this drugery work. It really sent him thinking about leavign the Weyr. He enjoyed beastcrafting but did not think he would progress very well. He would certainly never make master level.
"Are you apprenticed at all Zylaera?" He wondered what the beautiful blonde was interested in. She seemed to be too pretty to do anything like mining, beastcrafting or smithing. Perhaps harpering or healing...well he supposed he might be bthinking too judgementally.

Zylaera pulled the collar from her old tunic up over her nose so the stnech was slightly lessened. She grinned through her top at the boy next to her, "So you switched for this chore...well you choice i guess." She couldn't, normaly she did whatever possilbe to get out of healer work, although her mentor was her mother which made a small difference. "Beastcraft, hunh? I'm in healing. I'm apprenticed to my mom actually. She's only a Journeywoman...but she knows the craft inside out."
The sandy blonde began to try he best to remove some of the worst muck of the floors with her cloth, getting down on her hands and knees to clean out the grout, but the gross yuck was being stubborn. She sighed, shaking her head as if it would rid her of this aweful task. "So Hanen, i never asked you, are you planning on standing at the next clutch?" She asked, trying to take the focus away from their current chore.

Rylene sighed as she entered the Creche thinking to herself and wondering why she braught on etra chores to herself. A bucket half way full of water and a small scrubby towel dagled from her right hand, swaying slowly as she walked.I should have just stopped daydreaming and worked. Now I have to do this disgusting chore because of my own stupid lazyness. Waling into the bathroom she picked out first, Rylene got quite a shock. It took a second before she could process what was happening. After that though Rylene grinned,maybe I won't be so lonely after all!
"Zylaera...Hanen, you guys stuck doing this chore too?" Walking over to the two she squatted on the floor putting her bucket asuide so she wouldn't knock it over accidentally.Smilling she kept talking removing the soaking cloth and scrubbing at a stain near her foot. "I forgot to do the dishes because I was daydreaming...I guess I'll never really be free of my etra chores for a while at least." Rylene shrugged her shoulders srubbing harder at the stubborn stain and the moving on to another. The faster she worked the faster she would get out of this place.

"Hey Rylene," Zylaera said brightly. With one more hand to help, they would be done in no time. "Yah, i know what you mean by extra chores. I got those last week cause I uh...well thats not important. But anyways it's sharding annoying." Zylaera had been flirting with some new male candidates all through when she was supposed to be sweeping out the barracks. She couldn't help it though, they were all right there, in front of her. Whats a girl to do.
She grinned and continued scrubbing. She had finished almost half of the floor, thankg goodness. "So Hanen. Do you get extra chores much...or are you a good boy who stays out of trouble?" She asked teasingly.

"Yes I plan on standing at the next Hatching, anything would be better than being a drudge or a mediocre crafter. Beastcrafting really is not my forte." Rylene appraoched and Hanen nodded respectfully then went back to scubbing. He listened to the girls talking about extra chores with a smile on his face. He did not get extra chores very often.
"I would say that its not that I don't get into trouble. I just don't get caught very often. Thats really what seperates the good from the bad. Daze seems to think it is her life's goal to get me into trouble. Of course I have no problem getting out of it most of the time." Hanen knew that people generally thought he was a strong willed person and he knew that they were well...partially right. "I've been known to do my share of extra chores. Lately though I've only been in trouble with the kitchen. Not only am I eating them clean, but Daze likes to fly in and take food."

Zylaera grinned...she knew what trouble silly flits could do. "Heh! You should see Sudi. She's already risen several times...and whenever she does, all the kitchen staff hide. she is a maniac in the kitchen. She strips it almost clean." Zylaera cotinued cleaning, fore, back, fore, back. She was in a good motion now. she looked at Hanen out of the corner of her eye. "Yah. Getting out of trouble is much harder than getting in it. Luckily you have people like me to save your hide." She dodged quickly away from Hanen. She was never going to let him live it down.
"If you didn't have girls to save your life...what would you do Hanen. hunh?" She grinned and danced away from him, her long legs prancing tauntingly in circles around him.

"Thank Faranth my Daze is not even half a turn old yet. Then she would be real trouble." His eyes grwing dark at the mention of her saving his life. Watch she'd be telling people about this in twenty turns... shard it.
Watching her dance around him he grabbed her by the ankles seeing if she would topple down on top of him or try to remain standing. "Without you girls I wouldn't have been there in the first place, however the company was well worth almost dying. Now you can tell people you saved my life which makes you happy. So the question becomes, what would you do if you didn't have guys like me to save?

Rylene smiled at the antics of Zylaera and Hanen. She was more bent on her work than playing grab-the-person. Wacthing the two Rylene couldn't help but grin though, ahppy to have some friends in her life and especially for company. Thinkg about the day that Zylaera had saved Hanen, she couldn't help but shiver.
That had really freeked her out seeing Hanen nearly drown. That's over know though. Rylene thought with relief, as she kept half an ear in on Zyaera and Hanen's conversation. If that's what it sould be called, it sounded more like flirting to Rylene's ears. But what would she know about flirting anyways.
Rylene stood up and began scrubbing the walls, wrinkling her nose at the stench. "I don;'t know what we would do withput men...to rescue that is." She flashed a sly smile at the two, she blushed a little bit, but heck couldn't a girl have some fun?

Zylaera grinned at Rylene, "Very true. I don't know where i'd be if i didn't have some poor fellow in distress to save." She pouted a little at Hanen. She felt his strong handds grab her ankles and she made an exasgerated crumble to the floor. She ended up mostly in his lap. Leaning back against him she cried out, "Oh Hanen, whatever shall i do? Something has got me by the ankles. Now i play the maiden in distress. Oh do help me Hanen." She adopted a very funny, high screechy voice for this. She was a good actress, and a practiced flirt as well.
"Oh Hanen. Whatever shall i do? I just can't get up. I will be given extra chores. oh no." She then broke int o a fit of giggles. She hadn't had so much fun flirting since...well...since yesterday, but tha twas beside the point. "I gues i should get up and get to work," She said quietly, her eyes dancing, waiting for Hanen to fill in the rest.

"Don't worry, thats what Rylene's here for." He winked at Rylene. "She can save you. I on the other hand plan to keep you unsaved..." He grinned in pure mischief. "Why get up when its so comfortable right here?" His face changed to a pout as he said it.
He never really was a good flirt, seeing as he didn't know too many girls. He knew more guys. Never really had a crush on a girl before either. He was still a young teen so he had plenty of time. He would be turning 14 this turn but so far he was pretty sure that he was younger than Zylaera. He was tall for his age which was an advantage, not many 13 turn olds were 5'11".

Zylaera winked. "Your right I am quite comftorable here," She grinned wiggling down further into Hanen's lap."Maybe i'll have to yell out how comftorable i am. Then the candidate master will have to come and see, and oh no...would Hanen get extra chores?" Her face was the picture of horrified anxiety. She broke into a fit of giggles, before standing up lowly, making sure every joint in her spine stacked up one after another at a very slow pace, in a long and sensual motion.
She shook her head to the side, her long reddish blonde hair flipping back over shoulder. She liked the younger boy, only as a friend really, though. Maybe when they were older she wouldn't mind having a relationship with him, but she quest he was about 2 turns her junior. However, that wouldn't stop her from some outragiously fun flirting. She dropped her lower lip a little, and raised her eyebrows meekly, "So do you think we should be good little boys and girls and do our chores?"

He controlled himself as much as he possible could. The girl knew what she was doing and Hanen knew he must remain in control of himself. She was teasing him very easily so instead he burst out laughing and said, "The candidate master need not find out. I won't get extra chores alone mind you. If you insist we behave..." Smiling he went back to scrubbing the floor. "At least the mens side is already done." He really disliked his chores here for the most part.
Looking about him quietly he figured no one was really awake enough to catch them making noise anyway. "What are the two of you doing today after this perfectly wretched chore." Rylene seemed to be working harder than he was and he began to feel bad for not being more help.

Shrugging, Zylaera picked up her rag again. she scrubbed furiously, making quick work of the grout on the floor. She wanted to be done with this chore as soon as possible. She wiped her foorhead after a few minutes. "The floors all done. What else do we have to do?" Zylaera hoped not much. She was afraid the smells in the latrines might stick to her perminatly.
"Ugghh. Why do they give us the most disgurting chores. You know the official holdbred candidates all ge tthe pansy chores, of course? Because they're all so delicate." She stuck out her tongue to show her opinion of them. She had flirted with and kissed her share of them...but that didn't mean she had to really like them.
