If you aren't enjoying it, why are you there? Sobeth cut straight to the chase over her beloved Nua's choice to be part of the Turn's End festivities. She wasn't enjoying the dancing, she wasn't partaking in the drinks, and overall she mostly looked to be keeping an eye out on her wingmates. Because if I'm not, who will keep an eye on everybody? she inquired. Sobeth offered only silent, mild, judgement to her rider for such a bland train of thought.
Really, Sobeth was guilty of much of the same. Herding some of the smaller Weyrlings about (though truly, only one was smaller than her anymore, that beach clutch from so long ago was so big!) to keep them out of trouble, then turning such attentions to hers.
It had set a certain tone for their evening at least. While some familiar faces would stay later into the night than Nua was willing to, those who left earlier did catch Sobeth's attention, the mamagator singling out one in particular who looked to be having a bit of a time on his own. Nua, Sobeth summoned her rider to send her after the young man.
She'd barely reached out to put a hand on the larger man's shoulder when he fumbled, sending Nua scrambling to make sure he didn't simply find the floor without any trouble. "Woah! Woah!" shifting so she could plant a supporting hand on each of Dhawson's shoulders, Nua frowned. "You alright there?" He didn't look it.

And from somewhere deep in Nua it came rumbling - the fussy mother. Of course, it would have more aptly described someone who was actually a mother, but it was as close as she could get. "Really?" the greenrider gave him a serious look over, frowning the whole time. No, no, no. That wouldn't do.
Shooting a look off towards Sobeth, the green strode in no real rush across the Weyrbowl, settling into the sands and stretching her legs out in front of her. Truly the image of a makeshift seat, which Nua ushered the man to sit in. "Stay," she said firmly, making her retreat once she was certain he would. With her rider gone, Sobeth turned one whirling eye down at Dhawsn. I cannot see the fun in it, she didn't clarify what she meant, but there was some amusement at the expense of the mostly out of it young man.
Is it merely a flavor, or do you enjoy being like this? it was a genuine inquiry as she waited for her beloved to fetch the water the man had managed to communicate a desire for - as well as whatever else she was up to.

As he bent forward, Sobeth leaned in to rest her snout against the back of his neck, exhaling warm breath over it as though somehow it would help in the moment. Enjoying the festivities, then. Would it not have felt better to take it slower? she thrummed, a low noise that vibrated her chest slightly. Certainly, it wasn't unusual behavior for a get together like this and she'd seen many stumbling off in their own right over the turns.
But being a dragon, she'd never really understood the appeal. Perhaps it was because Nua had no such enjoyment of alcohol.
Any further prying and questioning would be interrupted by Nua's hasty return, a canteen - Nua's threadfall canteen, Sobeth noted - in one hand, and a compress in the other. She offered both readily. "When you've drank enough, put the compress over your nose," Nua gestured with her own hand to the area she meant on her face, "and it should uh..help."
She'd clearly taken note of the mouth breathing.

Warm dragon breath did not help, but he didn't have the energy to tell her no. At least Dhawsn had something to sit against, as the bulk of his body felt like it would rather ooze into the nearest drainage opening than deal with his churning innards. He moaned along with the green's thrumming and closed his eyes. "Pro'bly," he mumbled.
Blindly groping for the offered items, Dhawsn slowly dribbled water down, afraid that going too fast would be the trigger for an awful night. "Tanks," he told the woman a few moments later, one eye creaking open. He felt chastised, like a boy caught in the middle of his mistake. It was a strange feeling. He was used to fussing, not being fussed over, but he couldn't say he didn't like it. It was definitely helping. The compress on his nose made his eyes burn briefly as a stinging ripple went through his nose, but it was soothed soon enough. "Gawsh, thid ain' a good frisd impression...Not dis bumblin' normally."

Dhawsn chuckled, which turned into a cough, as Sobeth mussed his hair. "Yeah, I guess. Turn's End wadn' so great, heck, last few months weren', so...figured a pick-me-up would help."
It wasn't the kindness that surprised him so much as the lack of judgement--well, from the rider anyway. He must have looked really pitiful.
"You, uh, won' tell the candidatemasters r' seconds r' anyone, will ya?" he asked.

Could he just die of embarrassment? Please? Maybe ooze into ground this time? Dhawsn's stomach rolled at the idea of having anything else go down his throat, even as he knew he needed to keep water nearby. It took him almost five minutes of closed-eyed, short breathed existence before he felt it was safe enough to sit up. At least his nostrils were partially opened now? That was cool. Now he could smell his disgrace if he wanted.
"Naw, thanks," he said, voice low and rough and apologetic. "Water's fine, jus'...gimme a bit." He almost wanted to cry, he felt so stupid. Instead, he sniffled and rubbed at his nose and mouth with the back of his sleeve. Screw being hygienic at this point. "Sawry I'm makin' ya deal with this, ma'am. Never was a smart man."
