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.

When Searchriders Play [Thoia]; Summer 1264, Early Evening

It was difficult to tell who snorted first. Luca's came shortly after Thoia called her "caring." Gale's was roughly at the same time. It was as if he had understood the candidate, though there was no way that he could have gotten all of her words. Luca gave him a quick over-the-shoulder glare before ducking her head. She gazed at Hope, stroking the little green's head with the index finger of her free hand. "All right," she muttered. "Enough with the sweet talk. That's my job." She shifted in her seat, clearing her throat. It wasn't that she minded compliments. She just...didn't always accept them with grace.

You are funny, Mine. Emmeth was far more awake now. It seemed that he was interested in this conversation, even though he had complained about her flirtations earlier.

I am, aren't I? Luca retorted, scratching under Hope's chin. She looked over at Thoia, gaze momentarily flickering to the other woman's lips. She was, after all, only human. Her smile was less sarcastic and flirtatious as Thoia introduced herself. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Thoia and Hope." Again, she glanced down at Hope, only briefly this time, and chuckled. "She's cute. What can I say?" She couldn't deny it, not when Hope chirped like that!

Content, for now, to just remain in this close proximity to her new acquaintance, Luca shrugged one shoulder. A mischievous grin flickered across her face. "I like to visit my spawn."

Thoia raised an eyebrow, trying very hard not to laugh, and included Gale in the look. Well, if nothing else, this would be quite interesting. She might have to see if she could find someone among the Candidates who knew more about this Blue Rider. Really, all Thoia knew was that she was a Search Rider who frequently came to the Candidate Barracks.

"She is. She's at that stage where I almost don't want her to finish growing up. Not that full grown flits aren't also cute and can't be sweet. But she's just so small and adorable. Of course, she also spends a lot of time sleeping, eats like she's going to double her size in a single day, and needs constant oiling. But she's so cute. And," before Hope could pout her, "totally worth it."

She had seen the flick of eyes to her lips and tried not to become too conscious of them. Which was really hard to do. Which was why she was every so slightly wetting her lips before she realized what she was doing. Ugh, great. Not what she had meant to do, shards it.

"Your spawn? Wouldn't any spawn of yours be in the creche?"

Hope sounds a lot like you, Mine!

Luca forced herself to look away from Thoia's amused face and rolled her eyes towards the ceiling, projecting an image of a very vulgar hand gesture towards her blue. While what he said wasn't necessarily wrong--though she did not sleep nearly as often as she would have liked--she refused to agree that she was cute in any way. That idea was just utterly ridiculous. Settling her gaze back to Thoia, she arched an eyebrow in turn. "You think she's a lazy, needy, cute glutton? Wait 'til you Impress to your dragon." Of course, Impressing wasn't a guarantee, but she wasn't about to suggest that Thoia wouldn't Impress. That would be poor... What is that word, Emmy?

Emmeth rifled through her mind, taking several seconds to figure out what she was trying to think. Tact? he finally suggested.

Luca shrugged internally. I don't know. Maybe. Excuse me a moment. Thoia had just asked her the most interesting question. "The creche?" she repeated dumbly, a perplexed look on her face. Luckily for her, she was so confused that she missed Thoia's wetting her lips. That would have been terribly distracting. "Why would my spawn be in the creche?" I don't remember any of them getting in trouble recently... She liked to think that she did a good job of keeping tabs on all of their lives, but had she forgotten one's punishment chores?

Don't baby humans live in the creche? Maybe she thinks you have hatchlings, Emmeth reasoned, promptly causing Luca to inhale saliva down her windpipe.

Coughing, she hunched over, trying to be mindful of the little firelizard in her palm. "Shells, did you think...children?" she gasped when she could speak again. Her nose scrunched up at the very thought. She loved children, more than she would ever care to admit. But the idea of making one...with a man... "Shells. No, doll. I meant my candidates. And the weyrlings, too." She let out another cough, leaning against Thoia's side.

Thoia laughed warmly. "I'm pretty sure all babies are like that. With the cute part just being a trap to make up for the lazy, needy part." It was nice when someone else just assumed she'd Impress, even if it was just courtesy. Most of the time she believed that, that it was a given. That it would happen, but sometimes...

Luca's confusion confused her. Was she old enough for her children to be Candidates? If so, she'd certainly age well, but Thoia didn't think she was that far off in her guess. And then the woman started choking, and Thoia worried, though she was careful with Hope and Hope felt safe if worried for this strange person. She chirped, but not in distress but a questioning chirp.

And then Luca started to explain and Thoia rolled her eyes. "You call your Searchies your spawn?" She shook her head and managed not to grin when the woman leaned against her. "Pretty sure that's not what the word actually means, woman. Confusing people. You're a cute, caring idiot, you know that?"

Well, seems like I've found a like-minded soul, Emmy. Luca snickered. She'd had her suspicions about babies since her first encounter with one, and had come to the same conclusion as Thoia had. Babies were definitely cute to ensnare their caretakers into...taking care of them. It only made sense, after all. Luca had vowed as an adolescent to never fall into that trap. Emmeth, Marvel, and even Gale excepted, of course. They were different. They didn't carry excrement in their underwear. Nor did they drool and smell. Most of the time.

You love babies, Mine. Do not lie.

Yes, yes. Shut up, now. Luca cleared her throat, feeling the post-choking tickle there. It was threatening to make her cough again, and so she swallowed it back. She was pleased when Thoia didn't push her away, though the woman's eye rolling made her snicker. "Don't roll your eyes at me, candidate," she teased, her voice raspy from coughing. "Spawn is a perfectly acceptable term for my Searchees. It's not my fault people get confused so easily." Her lopsided grin grew as she resumed petting Hope. "You can't tell me what I am. I could be a murderer for all you know. Or a creep."

If she had access to your mind, she would know that you are a creep.

"Ah, no eye rolling...then how about..." Thoia grinned and then stuck her tongue out at Luca.

Hope was completely confused, both by her person and by this person her person was trusting her with at the moment. However, her person felt amused, so she chirruped her own laugh and attempted to mimic the tongue sticking out. She succeeded and without biting her tongue!

"Well, I would imagine if you were a murderer you would not be trusted to go on Searches or allowed in the Candidate barracks. So, I believe I can safely rule that one out." Thoia grinned as she winked at Hope and scratched her head without taking her from Luca's hands. "And what if I like certain kinds of creeps?"

"You are a child," Luca snorted, reaching up with her free hand to grab at Thoia's tongue. Her jaw dropped again when Hope tried to mimic her owner's gesture. Thoia forgotten for the moment, she hunched her shoulders and bent down to stick her own tongue out, right in the flit's face. "Two can play at that game, little one!" Gale was unimpressed. He had turned around to watch the trio, as surly as ever, and his snort was one of disdain. Luca rolled her eyes, completely disregarding the fact that she had teased Thoia for doing the exact same thing.

Straightening up, she raised her eyebrows at Thoia. For a brief moment, her expression faltered into something darker. P'tal. It had been a long time since she had thought of the greenpair. Suppose I set myself up for that one. Emmeth crooned uncertainly in her mind, but she brushed him off. Bumping Thoia's shoulder with her own, the bluerider shrugged with a slight smile. It was easy to not think about them when she was in such close proximity with this woman and her adorable firelizard. "I suppose you have a point," she allowed, snickering. "But really, doll, if you like 'certain kinds of creeps,' I am mildly concerned for your sanity. I might need to stick around just to protect you from your own odd tastes." She winked.

Fortunately her tongue had not been held long so she did not have to try to lisp a request for Luca to release it. And Hope was quite happy to take center attention again. She chirruped a laugh and as carefully as a baby flit could, tried to lunge for and catch the tongue in her face without actually biting Luca.

"Hope!" Fortunately the flit stopped at Thoia's sharp call.

Thoia was grimacing. There was no way that Hope would have had that much control yet, and that would have been bad. Very bad.

Sensing her person's distress, Hope attempted to chirrup an apology and that she was just trying to play. And would not have hurt the other person, and also that Gale was boring boring adult of boringness and icky.

Thoia sucked in her lips to keep from laughing and so missed the shadow that passed over Luca's expression briefly. "Pretty sure that would be the most counter productive attempt at protection ever." She grinned. "Since you'd by definition be keeping me exposed to said creep."

Luca jerked back, astonishment written across her face, when Hope lunged for her tongue. She quickly returned said organ to the safety of her mouth, shuddering. Experience with two of her own pestering hatchlings had taught her all about the sharpness of baby teeth. And while she could deal with a bite here and there, she wasn't quite sure what she would do if the victim was her tongue. But, no harm had been done, and she winced when Thoia chastised the adorable little one. "It's all right," she assured both woman and flit, sticking her tongue out for Hope to view from a distance. "No 'arm dun."

Gale hopped onto his bonded's shoulder, ignoring her disgusted glare. He sat down, regal as ever, and glowered at Hope. No one attacked his food-warmth-source. No one. He hissed for good measure, and Luca smacked her face into the palm of her free hand. Only Gale could be such a prick even when attempting to do something decent for her. "Calm down, you overgrown crawler. She's just a baby." Besides, you've bitten me plenty of times. The bronze huffed, dutifully ignoring her, but ceasing in his bullying.

"Sorry. Have I mentioned that he's a prick?" Luca asked in a helpful tone. Then she actually processed what Thoia had said during her moment of mentally yelling at Gale. "Oi! I'm only a creep on rest days!"

Thoia gently scritched Hope, who leaned into her person's hand even while still held in Luca's. "I don't think she meant to actually catch and bite your tongue. Though I do think she over estimates her own control just yet."

Hope nodded and sent the sensation of apology to both as she chirruped again, and then, safe in Luca's hand with her person scritching her, she hissed back at Gale. And sent an inquiry to Thoia of whether she'd ever be so intolerable when she was an adult.

Giggling, Thoia smiled to Luca. "Oh, of course, only on rest days. I'll remember that." She winked playfully, "And Hope wants to know if all flits grow up to be pricks because she doesn't want to. I think she's mostly in danger of growing up to be spoiled."

"So...tell me more about you on rest days?"
