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.

C'mir's idea of a good time was vastly different from Cara's. He'd heard of the blind dates in passing, but he had expressed no interest in them whatsoever. Why would he care to be paired off with a total stranger and forced to spend the day pretending like he didn't wish he was somewhere else? No, thank you. That was not fun at all. You couldn't pay him to sign up for such an event.

So when he happened to be passing the crowd on his way to dinner only to hear his name read aloud, he had frozen in his tracks. Only to hunt Cara down and proceed to inform her how very displeased he was that she had signed him up without his knowledge. And that she had signed him up at all. He was inclined to ignore it, pretend he'd never even heard his name paired with a... Saralyn, was it? He could just feign ignorance.

Except Morueth caught wind (no doubt thanks to Oortyth) and sent a wave of disapproval crashing into him. When he made it back to his room, having bypassed dinner in favor of avoiding the gathering couples, he found the Garnet had somehow learned to channel his foster mother in the most disappointed look he had ever seen on a dragon's face.

It was her fault, then, that he tracked Cara down again while she was preparing for her own date and demanded (with a very red face) she point out just who this Saralyn girl was. Another half candlemark later found him hovering near the lower caverns where he had seen people gathered before, dressed grudgingly in a nice tunic and one of his favored vests, looking like a wherry with its feathers ruffled. He did not want to be here.

He did, however, make an effort to wipe the scowl off his face when he spotted the girl Cara had identified for him. Tugging his vest straight, glad he'd opted not to wear his knots and hoping she didn't know who he was, he approached. Something close to a smile touched his face, although he wasn't fully confident it didn't come off more like a grimace, and he paused a respectable distance from her. "Hi Saralyn. I'm C'mir."

Saralyn hadn’t attended the original annoucing of the pairs; instead she’d taken her sweet time and gone down to the dining hall to read the list nearly half a candlemark later. She’d decided to opt for the strategy of being a little more than fashionably late, hoping this C’mir would get tired of waiting for her and she could get her brother off her back.

So she dawdled and procrastinated until the time she had set, making herself look presentable but certainly not anything more. She wore wide-legged pants and a simple tunic, foregoing her knots in hopes her date wouldn’t recognize her. Her hair was also pulled back in a simple runner-tail, perhaps hiding its bright distinctiveness just a little.

With a sigh and a nudge from Eparenth, the copperrider made her way down to the dining hall once more. She crossed her arms over her chest and left a scowl on her face, yet another stroke against approachability and recognition.

So when C’mir spotted her near-instantly, a look of surprise broke through her disinterested mask. While a part of her wanted to say ‘sorry, who? Oh, Saralyn, she just left for High Reaches to get away from her meddling brother,’ instead she regarded him with a cool, “Good evening.”

Saralyn looked him up and down for a moment, curious as to how he’d recognized her so quickly. Hmm, hadn’t Cara mentioned a Casimir? Perhaps he’d gone to her former classmate for a hint. Maybe he actually wanted to be on this date.

No, looking at him, he didn’t either. Might as well come clean, maybe they could go home without even bothering with this whole date. “My brother signed me up,” she said bluntly. “I’m not here through my own choice.” And judging by that look on your face, you’re not either.

It was very clear from the look on Saralyn's face that she didn't want to be there any more than Cas did. In fact, he would argue that she wanted to be there less than him. He was somewhat open o the idea of dating, he just didn't like the underhanded method Cara had used to force him into it. He had even been willing to give this date a try, see if he couldn't make it at least enjoyable.

The scowl Saralyn cast the room changed his mind on that.

Her icy greeting sealed the deal and he had just opened his mouth to point out this wasn't his idea and he certainly wasn't making her be there when she spoke. Ah. So she was also a victim of the involuntary date. He felt a twinge of something and confusion briefly clouded his thoughts as he realized it was disappointment.

Had he actually wanted to do the stupid date?

"Cara signed me up," he responded blankly. He let the silence stretch for a moment and then forced a wry smile. "And my dragon guilted me into coming. Guess they both think I need to get--" Whoa, no, not a good thing to say to a girl he'd just met! "--more friends." Yes, that was the safer way to end that sentence.

He cast a glance around the dining hall, stuffing his hands in his pockets. "Well um... Nice meeting you, I guess?" He started to extend his hand to shake, thought better of it, and then turned toward the tables. Hunger was starting to catch up with him, but he realized as he looked around that everyone else in there was in couples. He paused and then slowly turned back to Saralyn.

"Hey uh... If you haven't eaten..." He trailed off, wondering how best to phrase this without making it sound like a date. Because it wasn't. Definitely. "I skipped dinner to avoid this crowd, but now I'm hungry and I'm worried if they see me sitting alone they'll try and set me up again," he finished lamely, shrugging.

For a brief moment a flicker of hope lit in her chest—maybe she could just be done with this stupid thing in a few minutes. S’von wouldn’t be happy with her, but it would serve him right for trying to set her up like this. She was her own woman now, she could make her own choices about dating and anything else. That flicker though, was not at all quashed by a layer of disappointment. Not one bit.

Okay, maybe a bit.

“Sounds like Cara,” she said dryly. “She was my classmate, if she didn’t tell you.” The copperrider quirked an eyebrow at C’mir as his sentence seemed to change in midstream, then gave a noncommittal hum in response. “Well, my brother has a weyrmate that he’s sickeningly happy with and he seems to think I must just live in this cloud of loneliness and depression since I don’t have one.”

Saralyn nodded her acknowledgment. “Yeah. Same.” She glanced between the dining hall and the exit, trying to decide if food or peace and quiet was more important right now. She was hungry, but with all these couples around...

“Huh?” she said aloud as C’mir spoke, mind registering the fact that he had spoken before she actually processed the words. “Oh. No, I haven’t. But I don’t think they’d really try to set you up again,” she said flatly. After another moment, she said, “Ah, what the feck, why not. We’re already here anyways.” It would never go down as the most romantic ‘date’ in history, but it wouldn’t hurt to just talk.
