If Ty'bar so much as possessed the capacity to be afraid of large groups of people he might actually have been terrified at the thought of a bunch of teenagers and young adults gathering in his small ground floor Weyr. As time had passed in his lifetime he rather enjoyed being around that many humans, it was a chance for him to keep his mind from slipping into a dangerous place that even Asilaeth could fail to bring him out of. Luckily those days were slowly starting to disappear, filled with new faces rather than the absence of old wing mates to drag him up from the depression that had settled full over him in the wake of his accident. Eyes lighting up he laughed brightly at the thought of so many people crammed in that tiny weyr, for he was certain she had many to call friend among her fellow Candidates. Far be it for the rider to offer the chance to her and deny her friends!
"As I said, the more the merrier! Though you'll have to keep an eye on how full you make it, Asilaeth might be quiet and monotone but she by no means is one to take any pushing or bumping." he winked one rosey brown eye at her to show he was kidding and was nearly knocked forwards to the sand for his ribbing.
I do not make a habit of chastising any but you dear rider, though you are by far enough to keep in check with your amusement. If you can stomach him Rinis I will gladly let you know where his Marks fall in the future. If one had to hazard a guess, your day to shine is coming.
Leaning her head into the brow scratches, even if they were not her favorite place to receive them she would hardly tell the hard working Candidate that, Asilaeth gave a content grumble. Contact was lovely, it reminded her of being surrounded by her siblings. No matter how she felt about High Reaches Weyr and the treatment her rider withstood for her choice, the little green admitted her fondness for her hatch siblings. However she was much happier here in Western, where a dragon could fly their hardest and be rewarded for skill and experience rather than color.
"Not seeing the sun is like not seeing either of the moons, though come to think on it they were usually obscured by clouds..." ruminating on his words for a bit with his fingers tapping one of his scarred cheeks, Ty'bar finally offered, "I never had much experience with hobbies. I worked as a drudge for much of my life as I waited and then transferred those energies to riding. But if there was one thing I have to say I like it would be swimming. I managed to get 'laeth in the water when we first transferred here and she loved it as much as me!"
Just the memory of swimming for the first time had him grinning again, Asilaeth had responded to water like one of the dolphins he'd seen when they flew to Western. For once she had been laughing and all but dancing in the water, one of the first times heed even seen her loosen up.
"I don't know how much free time you have, but what are your hobbies?"

"Oooohhhh." Stretching it out with the same length she had, Ty'bar felt his grin grow a little wider but really how could he help but let it? Rinis had feelings towards a rider, but the way she claimed 'just friends' made him a little sad as he remembered his owl past with riders and Candidates. "Why just friends? It sounds as though someone wants it to be a little more personal than that."
A lady never tells.
Wrapping her tail around his mouth so that he couldn't speak another word or make Rinis uncomfortable, the green dragon turned her blue eyes on the younger girl and tried to get a handle on her. It was new, this was their first meeting and she didn't want her overly blunt rider to scare this possible friend away. Age difference being what it was that wasn't the actual concern, she didn't want his own heart to touch on hers and scare her away, she seemed nice and Asilaeth had met some that weren't when they met the mess that was her rider. Some day she would manage to convince him that appearance actually mattered even if he was a rider. Slowly she lifted her wing that showed signs of old scars across the delicate skin between her phalanges.
Do not let this one fool you, he wasn't always so scarred. This was actually the result of the first day of Threadfall, though he was not the only one that received them. Most of those past 'glories' of his were before he and I met all those Turns ago when he was still a young thing. It's those men's own fault for leaving him though, this one is friendly and sweet when he's not being so blunt.
A look of irritation passed over Ty'bar's face when he realized that he couldn't pull the tail covering his mouth off, she'd constricted it so that he could breath but not speak. If Rinis spoke he at least could read her lips and know what she was saying but he could no longer respond, at least not until Asilaeth was finished speaking with her.

It all depends on what you decide you can handle, though I've no experience with either in regards to love myself. This one has caused me all the heartache I could possibly stand, he's more than enough.
Asilaeth inclined her head to her rider as if to state that all his issues were not enough to have her angry or ready to flee from him. Quite the opposite, it was something that had her loving him all the more. But it was not romantic as Rinis was dealing with and the green dragon had found no male or female dragons that even held a candle to her, at least in her opinion. So why should she ever bother even showing the least bit of worry about love?
Her own inability to love romantically did not mean that her rider hadn't experienced it though, strong enough that it had left lasting physical and mental scars on him. Reaching out before he even realized that it might be unwanted, Ty'bar pulled Rinis into a tight hug and patted her back warmly. Love was something that nearly all humans would experience in their lives, some stronger than others, and no one should have to fight back tears as they made a decision whether to fly or love. He'd been there many times, loved deeply and lost so fully that it had seemed to break anything in his heart that could even have him love again. And yet...
"Someday the time will be right, someday you'll know what you have to do. Until then you have every right to make your own decisions and forge your own path." Pulling back to offer her a wide smile and a nod, the smile widened a bit, "If you're heading back there we might as well too. It's time for some training. Would you like a ride on a fast little green?"

Several heartbeats seemed to go by without an answer from the green. Rinis held her breath until the green moved to let them onto her back. She smiled, "thank you Asilaeth." Candidate she might be, but she was well practiced at riding second. With a hand, a hop, and a swing, she was up and seated behind Ty'bar. "And thank you Ty'bar! This sure beats walking." Honestly, who didn't love a dragon ride?
Quickly settled, Rinis set a firm grip on the rider in front of her. It would only be a short ride, not like those L'saen took her on, so she'd enjoy every moment of it. At least, she could tell the candidatemaster she'd done her job well. Asilaeth she couldn't tell, but Ty'bar seemed to be in better spirits. Too bad she couldn't watch them train too. She bet the green could just own the air.
