OOC: Getting to know all abooout yooouu... Sorry, couldn't resist. :-p
IC: Tayrin looked around the barracks at the several other beds situated there. There were bags and belongings on some of them, including his own, but he had not seen the faces of those who stayed there. He sat on the bed looking through the long letters his fostered mother had given him, with all sorts of advice and babblings, some of which was completely useless. He knew that much of it was his fostered mother, Brina, trying to seem like she cared. He picked out the important things, wrote them on a piece of hide, and put the other hides aside to be scraped and reused. Even though she might want to look caring, he did not have any wish to appear how he was not.
As he finished that task, he started to sort through the items in his pack.
(OOC: This is for all of us with candidate characters to socialize them. I thought it might lead to interesting things.)

Kadan walked into the candidate barracks and noticed another candidate. "Hi my name is Kadan. G'han told me there was another male candidate here. I just recently came here. What is your name", he said to Tayrin. Sharan flew around Tayrin curious of the candidate and flew to Kadan's bed and fell asleep. "That would be Sharan, my bronze firelizard", he said.

Kia dragged her feet tiredly into the area where all the barracks for candidates were. She had spent most of the day training and was very tired. Kia looked up and saw Tayrin and Kadan. "Hey," she said quietly. She streached her back and struggled to stand straight. She looked to the washroom and decided she would take a quick bath. She grabbed a change of clothes, a comb, etc. She sat in the spring but stayed for only a little, rubbing sweet sand quickly aloung her arms and legs. She got out and twisted her hair, listening to the water hit the ground. She got dressed in a large white shirt and men's blue pants. She then struggled to comb her hair.

Kadan looked up and noticed Kia. He waved at her and flashed a smile. "That was Kia, she is a candidate here as well. Have you met her yet?", he asked. Kadan liked making new friends, he didn't have many here. Most nothing more than aquaintances.

Miya walked in muttering under her breath. "I can't wait to become a dragonrider." She said as she sipped a cup of Klah. She heard the conversation. "I am Miya." she added quickly not really caring. She sat in a chair and looked at the others slowly swallowing the warm liquid. Miya would probably drink it more often now that the winter was approaching. She sighed. Though Miya lived in the Northern continent she hated snow.

Kadan hesitated for a moment, from what little he knew about the girl he gathered she was a rather rude individual, but being friendly and social was dug too far in his nature. "I am Kadan", he said nodding his head.

"I know who you are." she said simply. She took another gulp of the Klah enjoying the refreshing taste. She looked at Tayrin. That was the boy she hadn't met yet. "Who are you?" she asked, her eyes pointing at the candidate name Tayrin.

Kadan raised an eyebrow but he wouldn't comment. He could only hope her attitude would settle over time. She seemed like she could be a nice enough person if she tried but she apparently liked being rude and obnoxious.
He walked over to his bed. Sharan was already there resting. He picked up the little bronze and placed him by his bed and lay in his bed thinking about what his dragon would be like.

Kia walked from the shower, her hair finally tamed. She lloked at Kadan who had went to his bed. She knew everyone there, maybe not well, but she knew them. Kia sat in her bed and whistled. Tokagae came in. He made sure to spin around each person several times. Kia could tell he wanted to play. She took a quill and brushed the feather in his face. Tokagae flew around, trying to catch it.

Tayrin's lips curved slightly. Miya intrigued him; she was simple with her words, didn't seem to care how others might scold her for "bad manners", and was very direct. She was honest, like him, though he usually was careful with what he said.
"I am Tayrin, as you've probably already heard." His navy eyes looked up to the ceiling in annoyance. "Word always travels fast here, I've heard." He grinned at himself, not sure of anyone else would get what he was smiling about. "I'm not from anywhere important, but I'm here, at least. It's better than back at the hold."
He ran his hand through his unruly black hair with a hand attached to a muscular arm. He stood and leaned his stocky frame against the cool stone wall. "What about you, Miya?"

"No I didn't know you." Miya said but continued to listen. "And here is better then the hold but I still don't like it. My parents were harpers and wanted me to be one too. But I did not want to be one so I was glad to be searched." She said watching the others.

As he listened, Tayrin narrowed his dark eyebrows slightly. "If you don't like it here, where would you like to be?" he asked carefully.

Miya took a sip of Klah as she thought about the question. "I don't know." she said. She stood up and left to get to her room.(I am just trying to get my character in the same spot.)

R’dan was finishing showing a new candidate around the weyr and he stood outside the candidate’s barracks. “And finally this is the candidate’s barracks. There are several other candidates here already, and I think I hear a few of them inside there now.”
“Thanks,” replied the new candidate. Breckin was his name. He brushed his dark brown hair from his eyes before shouldering his pack and entering the barracks. As soon as he walked through the door it seemed as if Breckin was struck with shyness, strange because he usually wasn’t shy. He set his bag down on one of the empty beds and said, “Um… hi. I’m Breckin.”

Kia looked up when she heard Breckin. She gently put Tokagae to her side and stood up. "Hello, Breckin," she said, "I am kia, candidate as well. Though, that is obvious because I am in the candidates barracks." She shook his hand and took a step back to see what he would say.

Kadan got up from his bed and walked over to the new candidate. "Hi my name is Kadan", he said shaking his hand.

“Hi Kia, hi Kadan” Breckin replied when the two other candidates introduced themselves. He glanced about the candidates’ barracks, “How long have you guys been here? I just got here as you can probably tell…”

"I came here not too long ago myself. So who showed you around? G'han was the one to show me around. I came at the same time a caravan arrived so there weren't many who could spare the time to show me around. Maybe you will get the chance to meet him later", he said.

“R’dan showed me around the weyr, I didn't really see any of the other dragon riders. He showed me everywhere including the hatching sands… but there weren’t any eggs on it. Do you know how long until the queen clutches?” Breckin asked as he sat down.

Kia smiled at Breckin. "I got here a bit before Kadan," she said, "Oh, and Kaith, the Gold, flew recently. She should clutch in about a sevenday and then I think it will take about two sevendays for them to harden."
