Verity sat down on one of the benches, pondering what the standing would be like. She could hardly wait. After Impressing her two blue flits, which were seated on her shoulder chirping at each other, she was excited about the standing. Her feline, Binsley, jumped into her lap and settled down. Petting him softly, Verity was lost completely in thought. What will happen if I don't Impress? Or, what if I Impress a queen? I don't think I'm ready to take on that responsiblility. Hopefully I just impress a green. Hopefully. Hmmm, I wonder how Orfinion is. I haven't seen him around lately. What do you think, Laertes? Laertes and Noamis started chattering even louder, and flashes of the sea wend through Verity's mind. Well, she thought , maybe I'll go for a swim. But, she didn't feel like moving quite then. Secretly she was hoping that Orfinion would walk into the common room and talk to her.

((I'm guessing it's open...))
Kistanal hurried to the Candidate barracks from the Kitchens. Anotehr not-so-good chore. They had been, so far, unlucky for her. Looking at the barracks quickly, Kistanal decided the Commons Area would be the best place to go. It was fairly empty when she came in, the only person that stood out being a girl practically covered in pets. Kistanal, dropping her meek act now that most she had gotten to know were gone, flopped down in a chair opposite the girl, grinning at her.
"Hi. I'm Kistanal, Candidate. What about you? Well, you're obviously a candidate, but what's your name?" She smiled a bit disdainfully. A cocky smile, her shoulders set in a way that made her look like she was trying to be superior--and as a obvious candidate, not doing a good job.

"Oh, nice to meet you, Kistanal. I'm Verity." Naomis and Laertes quickly flitted off of her shoulders to flutter around the new girl, chirping happily. "Those two are Laertes and Noamis, my flits. They're quite....full of themselves. This is Binsley, my first friend." Verity smiled. She was getting pretty good at making friends, even though she had always been very shy. She didn't blush now, as she used to. "I'm a candidate as well. Aren't you excited about the soon coming standing?"

Orfinion walked into the commons and smiled happily when he noticed Verity. He had been so busy lately, he had barely had time to talk to her. "Hey Verity." He smiled and hugged her gently. He remembered the other girl from before. "Hi Kistanal. I see you've met Verity," He put an arm protectively about the girl, "So how are the little blues doing?"

Kistanal gave a little giggle as the flits flittered around. "They're sweet." SHe said softly, looking at them happily. When Orfinion came to the Commons Area, Kistanal smiled at him to, nodding her head at his question-slash-comment. Adjusting herself in her seat so she didn't look too bored, Kistanal kept her ear alert. She didn't want to misinterpret anything, and she didn't want to miss anythin either. "They are sweet little things." She commented in a even tone, her eye's once more following the flits. Then Kistanal abruptly dove into conversation, using Verity's questions so she didn't sound to desperate for friends.
"Well, I'm terribly excited about being able to stand, but I'm a bit afraid that I'll cause a scene somehow and not be allowed this time. I heard thatit shouldn't be too long before we get our chance. If... If the.. You know... The Thread ever comes again, my Foster Mother said we'd have Dragon's up to our ears. I'm not sure what she meant... But..." Kistanal shrugged, remembering what she had promised herself in the Kitchens.
"I mean... Yeah, I'm glad and excited about standing." She repeated in a meeker voice, picturing a baby Herdbeast frolicking as she muttered her words in a sweet and innocent tone.

"Orfinion! Well, my flits are doing just fine. As you can see, they like to pester newcomers, but oh well. How is your bronze?" Verity was extremely happy to see Orfinion. "Oh, so you know my new friend already. That's good. Kristanal, I'm sure you won't cause a scene."
Laertes and Noamis returned to Verity's shoulder, chirping away happily. "Aparantly, they approve of you." She smiled sweetly at the girl, hoping she hadn't frightened her by her pets.
Binsley carefully got down out of her lap and wandered away. He didn't like a lot of people being around and knew it would be safer in the bunks.
"So, what have you been up to Orfinion?" She looked at him questioningly, wondering why it seemed that she had not spoken to him in so long.

Orfinion smiled before giving Verity a light peck, "Well I'm glad the little flits are doing well. Veryt is as wonderful as his namesake. Although, i must admit he is a bit of a runt." The little bronzling gave an indignant squak before Orfinion crooned to him in reassurance.
Orfinion gave a smile to Kistanal, she wasn't his favorite candidate, but if Verity liked her he would to. "Its good to see you again Kistanal," he nodded politely. He really wanted to talk to Verity however, and turned back to her.
"Oh You know Verity...here and there," he gave her a teasing glance. Still smiling he explained, "My sister has been a bit ill so i have had to take care of her on top of chores and everything. With the clutching coming close they are drving us to exhaustion with lessons and duties and such. I can't wait till the hatching myself." He gave her a sly glance, "Well i haven't seen you around much either. What have you been up to?" He winked at her.

Kistanal gave Orfinion a tight-lipped smile, before offering Verity a much warmer one. Then, with a nod of understanding--even if her head moved barely one or two minisule inches--, Kistanal stood. With a pushed yawn and a subtle smile at Orfinion and Verity, Kistanal waved her hand dramatically. "Well, I'd best be off. More chores to be done. Well, soon anyway." She looked momentarily sullen, then put on a meek little face, trying to look as innocent and positive as possible. Smiling to herself, she hurridly walked out of the Commons area, not wanting to intrude on what could possibly be important.

Orfinion looked guilitly at Kistana. He hadn't meant to drive her away. "Wait! I'm sorry you don't have to go..." He trailed off as he saw her figure fleeting out of the common's area. He sighe but quickly smiled again as he saw Verity. His eyes danced as he looked at her small figure, "Well...at least we are alone now. So what would you like to do now that we finally have some time together. Go for a walk, a swim?" Anything with Verity would be good for him.

"Bye, Kristanal, nice meeting you..." She trailed off as she watched the girl go. Noamis and Laertes fluttered back to her, making some very chirpy noises at Orfinion's Veryt. "They are a little opinionated, sorry Orfinion." She began petting them, trying to get them to calm down.
"What was that all about?" Smiling at Orfinion, she reached over and gave him a small kiss. "I have been....adjusting. Wait, where are we supposed to go for our lessons?" Verity was very frazzled, thinking she had missed something very important. She had been doing her chores, in the kitchen and on the beach. She hadn't found time to go to the Infirmary, but she would soon. "Let's go for a swim. I haven't been down there to go swimming since I was recruited."

Orfinion smiled with good humor, "Thats ok. veryt is pretty laid back. Laertes and Noamis are probably just excited that they are the size of a bronze for once." Veryt gave an annoyed shirp before Orfinion skritched his little had appeasing him for the moment.
He smiled at her, rubbing her shoulder soothingly, "Don't worry Verity. Lessons don't start for almost two candlemarks. We have plenty of time. Swimming it is than." he grinned, swimming would haev been his top choice as well. "Shall we go then?"
((switch to the beach/sea?))

((yeah.....))
Verity smiled....good, then, they were going swimming. It was one of her favourite pasttimes. Noamis would love her even more for it....he loved the sea.
She stood up, nudging Orfinion to get up as well. "Let's go then..."
