Time to See the Meadow?

[Sparrow]

Tirasha was gradually coming to the decision that she didn't really want there to be a next time. "You should start thinking then," she said softly. Willow chirped his own stern affirmative to her statement.

Tirasha sighed and looked around. Such a pretty place and she was too stiff to enjoy it. Worse, she was probably hurting V'ire. Shards. Wasn't she supposed to be a Healer? But wandering a flower meadow with a weyrling she was already getting made fun of about wasn't her forte, apparently.

Tianthe stopped rolling as Elisth did, but didn't follow in taking a nap. Sleep? She wanted to sleep? Tianthe didn't. She hopped after Kiyo, chirping to him and wondering why he was gathering all those flowers in his mouth. They weren't very good tasting anyways, there wasn't much to do with them.

V'ire sighed. " I should. For now though, you should be enjoying this meadow. It's lovely isn't it? Pick some flowers Tirasha...the sun will set soon. Perhaps you would like to watch it this once?"

He was concentrating on not saying anything that would embarrass him or make her feel uncomfortable. He reached down and picked a yellow flower, and a few pink and orange ones. He enjoyed having some fresh flowers near his bed.

[Sparrow]

Tirasha managed at grudging "Yes" when V'ire mentioned on how pretty the meadow was. It was... but she still felt awkward. Willow chirped and nudged Tirasha at the weyrling's next question... he would like to stay and watch. And it looked like Tianthe wasn't planning on leaving just yet either.

"I suppose I could." Tirasha watched V'ire pick flowers, wondering what he planned to do with them now. She figured she had plenty in her room right now after their three fire-lizards going on a little adventure though, and didn't do the same.

" Well, I'm stuck here until Elisth wakes up anyway...so I usually stay and watch. It'll be nice to have someone here to watch it with for a change." V'ire gave her a smile and tucked the flowers into the side of his pants.

Kiyo had also finished picking flowers, but waddled up to Tirasha with his big mouthful of little posies. He chirped over the flowers to her and sat the flowers down at her feet.

[Sparrow]

"Maybe." Tirasha smiled slightly and glanced in the direction of the sun. It wouldn't be much longer til it was down. Hopefully the infirmary wasn't missing her. "What do you plan to do with those?" She beckoned vaguely towards V'ire's flowers.

Tianthe followed Kiyo at a happy trot and gurgled as he dropped the flowers at Tirasha's feet. Hers didn't want more, she hadn't wanted the ones they brought earlier. And she could believe it- you couldn't do anything with flowers. But the woman bent over and picked them up anyways.

"Apparently Kiyo thinks I don't have enough," she commented drily, running her fingers over the velvety petals. Her room would smell strong enough to kill soon, with all the flowers she was getting.

[Nick]

V'ire looked down at the flowers and laughed. " I need some more to put next to my bed. Figured I might as well pick them now." He gave a smirk and pointed to the sky, sitting down in a clearing of flowers.

He took them out of his pants and sat down to watch the sun set. " Sit down here Tirasha, this is like the perfect place to watch it set. You can see all the colors it throws on the sky from down here."

Elisth even opened one eye to watch the beginning of the sun's last decent.

[Sparrow]

"I suppose..." Tirasha didn't know men collected flowers too. Of course... V'ire was a Greenrider. That could explain it. She glanced upwards when he pointed, then sat where he mentioned, brows contractng thoughtfully. "You can usually see that from a lot of places..." But this was a much nicer background.

Tianthe and Willow bounded over to her, the Green taking her usual spot on her head and the Bronze settling on her shoulder. What was Theirs looking at? They saw the sunset all the time and didn't quite get why humans seemed to find it so fascinating.

[Nick]

The sun was setting, everything was bathed in it's light. It was always a great time to just look at the world.

V'ire looked over at Tirasha and gave a smile. " Tirasha....I..." He couldn't help himself as he leaned closer and, brushing some hair out of her face, kissed her. What was he thinking! She was going to slap him!

As the kiss continued though, V'ire figured that it was worth a slap. He hadn't expected her lips, or her cheek, to be this soft.

[Sparrow]

Willow probably would have hissed, but Tirasha jerked backwards so fast he had to concentrate more on just staying the Healer's shoulder than getting after V'ire for touching His. Tianthe gurgled and fell happily off Tirasha's head, crumpling in the flowers and looking around for Kiyo.

"Shards V'ire!" Anger made her cheeks red this time. Tirasha really couldn't think of anything else to say, so she glowered at V'ire for a long moment and then stood. She didn't want to hang around for his 'I wasn't thinking' excuse this time. Twisting briskly around, Tirasha started walking stiffly off.

She wanted to run back to her chambers and not come out, throw away that sharding mound of flowers the fire-lizards had brought her, hide. The last thing she wanted was a weyrling after her, and now it seemed that was happening. Willow crooned softly and nuzzled her chin before turning his head to glare backwards at V'ire as they left his secret meadow. Stupid human.

Tianthe wanted to find Kiyo though, so she remained.

[Nick]

V'ire wasn't surprised when she stormed off...he was an idiot. He put his face in his hands and sighed. He would just wait for Elisth to wake up and go...nothing to do about Tirasha now.

Kiyo chirped and popped his head up out of a bunch of flowers by where Tianthe had landed. The Green was here..but where was Hers? He poked at her with his snout and gurgled.
