Welcome to Vaioa,

a desert triumvirate of Hold, Weyr, and Mine. Thread's return and bandit raiding brought strife between weyr and hold, but the bandits' recent defeat has returned the region to an uneasy peace. Now, a shipwreck on a forgotten continent and the decision to settle this rediscovered land has opened up a world of opportunity to Vaioa, if only they can handle the dangers.

What The Feck Was I Thinking?!; {{Tag Lesley}}

Wine was bad. Wine was really bad.

Hanalei knew the moment that she woke up that wine was the worst thing that had ever happened to her. It was the reason for her aching head, her painfully dry throat, that sore feeling that radiated through her entire body. She tried to shift away from the constraining arm around her waist and buried her face in a pillow, groaning. The arm held her tightly in place. "Les...you're too hot, let go..." The candidate pushed back against her friend with cold feet and he grunted in sleepy protest and complied.

"Fecckkk, my head..." Hana didn't bother rolling over to look at Lesley. It wasn't the first time she'd slept in the same bed with him for comfort and it probably wouldn't be the last. Their relationship was strictly platonic but very close. She trusted the boy completely.

Fred fluttered down to her pillow and chirped urgently at her. His eyes were whirling alarming reds and yellows and his mind had a very unhappy feel to it. The candidate frowned at her fire lizard, wondering what his problem was. He wasn't hungry. He wasn't hurt. She wasn't hurt. She'd been hungover before and he hadn't fussed this much. But it was when the bronze climbed over her and onto the man behind her that she realized the cause of his alarm.

That wasn't Lesley.

Hana reacted on instinct; she shrieked and scrambled out of the bed so fast it sent her head reeling and her stomach emptying onto the strange man's floor. He sat up and looked at her blearily, just as confused about the situation as she was but Hana was already scrambling for her clothes and hissing self-deprecating curses under her breath. Stupid! Stupidstupidstupid girl! How did you lose Lesley? What happened?!

"Ah...I don't think we um..."

"Shut up! I don't care if we "um"'d." She hoped that they hadn't. If this man had gotten her pregnant she'd be out of candidacy. She'd never Impress and she'd be stuck with some brat she didn't want. She glared up at him. "What the feck did you do to me?" She didn't feel like she'd had sex. Not that she'd know what that felt like but...

"What did I do to you?" The man rubbed his face in sleepy, pained irritation. "You were drunk. I was drunk. You kissed me and told me to help you forget about the hatching." She cringed. Had she done that? Oh shaffit, what about Lesley? Had she just left him at the sharding banquet by himself and run off with some stranger? He'd never forgive her! Hana buried her face in her hands and groaned again. "We got back here and..." He shrugged nonchalantly and she hated him instantly. "We didn't have sex. We did...other things."

"Fantastic." Fred attached himself to her shoulder after she'd pulled her shirt on and wrapped his bronze tail around her neck. The striking little fire lizard hissed darkly at the man, weaved back and forth on his perch and flexed his claws threateningly. He seemed unimpressed by the display. Hana wondered absently if he was a rider, a candidate, or just general weyrfolk. She supposed it didn't matter. Humiliation burned her face, roiled in her gut along with general nausea. I screwed everything up. Lesley is gonna hate me now and now I'm no better than some...some cheap floozy!

"You don't have to look so disgusted you know. I'm sorry if that's not what you wanted. We were both pretty wasted." He had propped himself up on one elbow and was watching her carefully like she was some kind of dangerous wild animal that fascinated him. Hana noticed that he really was quite handsome, wondered how she'd managed to convince him to share a bed with her, and simultaneously hated herself for thinking such things. Her face fell into utter devastation. What would her parents say if they knew about this?!

"Do you have a name?"

"It's Hanalei," she muttered. She didn't know why she'd bothered telling him. She'd never see him again. Before he could ask her any more questions or offer his own name, she fled. She sent Fred ahead of her to attach himself to Lesley and made a beeline for her best friend's room. She must have looked a mess, ruffled hair, bloodshot eyes, her shirt on backwards and her socks missing, but she only cared about one person's opinion right now. She knocked frantically on his door. "Les? Les are you in there?"

Lesley had just finished straightening his bed furs when Fred suddenly popped into being in front of him. The bronze attached himself to Les's shirt front, creeling and looking up at the boy with red and yellow eyes. Aghast, Lesley tried in vain to pry the creature off and hold it properly so that he might console it. He wished desperately that he could communicate with Fred; something had to be horribly wrong with Hana for him to be this upset. Scow chittered at his brother, but whatever they may have said to each other was beyond Lesley.

The young scholar gave up on pulling Fred off and moved toward the door. He had to get to the Candidate Barrack immediately. But before he reached the door, someone knocked. Exasperated, Lesley pulled the door open.

He boggled at Hanalei - the backwards shirt not escaping his notice. She looked terrible. He shuddered to imagine what she'd been through after he'd lost her at the banquet last night.

As soon as the doorway was clear she flung herself at him, sending Fred fluttering off to the side, and pulled him into a tight hug. She started rapidly mumbling something but Les couldn't make out a word. He clung to her, terrified.

"Shards, Hana! What on Pern happened to you!?"

Hana flinched at his tone, mistaking it for accusation and betrayal rather than genuine concern. Fred attached himself to her head as soon as she was within reached and crooned frantically, trying to calm his chosen person. The candidate tried not to cry, after all she was at fault here and that would only upset Lesley. Instead, she kept her face buried against his shoulder and took deep, calming breaths. "I'm so sorry Les! I am! I didn't mean to run off last night!"

Or do any of that other stuff I apparently did. She was never drinking wine again. Ever.

"I had too much to drink and I ran into this...this guy and ...things happened and I'm so sorry please don't be mad!" Shards she was babbling. Hana wouldn't blame Lesley for looking down on her after running off like an empty-headed little pillowcrafter with some fardling stranger. "I don't even remember it. He says we didn't...didn't..." she waved her hand in a vauge gesture, "yeah. I feel like such an idiot."

Lesley listened to Hana's rambling apology-explanation hybrid, rapidly becoming confused and ever more alarmed. He didn't like her tone, or that she seemed to thing she'd mistreated him somehow. Exasperated, he held her at arms' length and looked her in the eyes.

"Hana, I don't really know what you're talking about, but I'm not upset with you." His mind raced over what she had said for a moment and he added, "Are you saying some strange man took advantage of you?"

Deep concern colored his features and he relaxed his grip on her, gently herding her over to a chair. He sat next to her, curling his fingers absently around Scow's tail where it curved in front of his neck. The young man frowned and took her hand. "Are you alright? Is there anything I can do for you?"

A knot of guilt began to grow in his gut. He had been clear-headed last night. He'd known how much she'd been drinking. And yet he hadn't managed to pay enough attention to keep track of her. He'd lost her, and as a result....He sighed softly, studying her face.

Fred's warmth pressed against the side of her face comforted her as she sat. Lesley didn't appear to be irritated at her for leaving him at the party. The candidate took a deep breath and let it out in a long, gusty sigh. As long as Lesley wasn't mad at her, things weren't too bad. Sure the rest of her classmates would think she was some kind of easy pillowcrafter if they got word of this but she didn't intend to let that piece of information get out. "Shh now, Fred. You're making it hard to think."

"He claims it was my idea and it may well have been, I don't know. I barely remember anything. I just woke up next to him this morning and got out of there as fast as I could." She chose not to mention that a very large part of her had been surprised and pleased at how handsome he'd been - how the fardles had she managed to fall into bed with someone like that? - and instead she said, "I think he was a dragonrider. There were knots on the nightstand and the pants on the floor looked like riding pants."

She put her head in her hands as a sudden realization hit her. "Oh shards, Les. What if he's lying? What if we did have sex and he got me pregnant? I'll never be able to stand again! Jays, I'm such an idiot! I should never have left your side."

Lesley listened quietly as his friend spoke, holding her hand. He watched her face, his heart going out to her. He couldn't imagine going through something like this...it sounded horrible.

He frown sympathetically as she voiced her worries and squeezed her hand. He didn't know the man. Les couldn't judge whether it was likely he had lied. He shook his head and pulled her into a gentle hug.

"Stop that. You're not an idiot. You just made a mistake. It happens. And it's how we grow." He paused for a moment, thinking. He remembered something he's read as part of his studies of anatomy, but hesitated to broach the topic. He gathered his strength and straightened up; this was too important not to ask.

"Im sorry, this is personal, but...did you bleed? ....down there? I remember reading that when a woman loses her virginity, she bleeds a little..."

He studied her face with a wry expression, disliking that he'd had to ask and hoping she wouldn't mind. They were very close, but they'd never really talked about things like this before.

This kind of thing probably happens all the time in the Weyr, Hanalei thought to herself. It was a disconcerting thought really. Weyrfolk were so much more open about sex than holderfolk because of their dragons and she didn't know if she could get used to that sort of mentality so easily. If this sorrt of thing had happened back home, that man would have been just as scandalized as she.

Here...he hadn't seemed to care at all that he didn't know this girl he was bedding.

She pulled Fred into her lap and pet him quietly as she listened to her best friend. When Lesley asked her his question, her hands stilled and her face turned scarlet. Shards! Les was her friend but she'd never expected or wanted to hear something like that come out of his mouth! Hana turned away from him and stared down at the floor, wishing she could sink into it.

"Um...no. I didn't know that happened actually." And now she never wanted to know for sure.

Les frowned, Hana's obvious embarrassment only making him feel worse. He rubbed his hands slowly over his knees, looking toward the floor.

"I'm sorry...but at least we know you're ok...and you won't lose your candidacy."

He looked at her warily, afraid she was upset with him. He pet his firelizard, who nuzzled him in return, and sighed softly. He couldn't think of anything else to say. This was so awkward.
