Thinking about the past (Open)

[Yamamoto]

Bamre sat there in weyrbowl and looked around wacthing the people. His fair sat near and him, and where all gathered close so that they could be cuddled up to there pet. For them it had really not seemed that long, but they still shared the man's mind and so they new the ture length of time that he had been away. They could feel it, and did not want him to go away form them like that again. Bamre smiled softly and held Diamond who somtimes like to take the spot on his chest close. He had indeeded missed them, even if he had had all the wild firelizards to keep him company... it really had not been the same.

For a moment he began to think about that time, and what had happened. It had been a sound plan really, though risky becuase they could have been found. Yet it had worked out, becuase not only had they been able to raise Karlyn... but he had figured out some things about himself, and his relationship with Trylinna had been strengthened. As did the weyr becuase of some things he had found that he knew that they could use. So in all the weyrwomens final plan had worked out prefectly, and in a way he was just gald to be back here in his own time. A little older... and a little wiser.

The sound of dragon wings might well impinge on Bamre's consciousness. Familiar dragon wings, for that matter, the oldest of Pern's rainbows landing nearby and folding her wings.

"Eighth mark for them?" Tirlynna called, surprisingly cheerfully. Of course, she was not a woman to stay down for long...especially as she had now dodged the bullet of ending up Weyrwoman herself.

She did wonder...wish...about certain things. Ten years with only Bamre and Karlyn and the dragons...well. Theirs was one weyrmating that would be ended only by the death of one of them. She even thought she could survive losing Reinth...although she didn't want to think about it...if she still had Bamre.

[Yamamoto]

Bamre heard the noise of dragons wings as he heard someone land nearby, and not only that, but he heard the croon of his own dragon as he spoted his favorite dragon. The white approched the rainbow quickly and nuzzled his head aginst her with a loving croon. There own relationship had been strengthed while they had been with there riders in the past. The two dragons had only had each other to keep company and so things just developed like that. Purth still couldn't fly Reinth, but becuase she didn't fly hardly at all, the white dragon had started to think of her as his weyrmate... sense in terms of number of time that they had flown... she was the closest any dragon would come to macthing him.

Of course Bamre knew that with Reinth being here that ment that Trylinna was here, and it was a big smile that beamed across his face when he saw his weyrmate. Of course he was always very happy to see her. Though he thought for a moment about how to answer... what was he supposed to say really... I want to have a baby together! Somthing like that take seemed rediculous to just be said out right, even though he did have this desire to be a dad for the first time in his life. He diecded instead to just talk about the past and maybe it would lead up to that.

"Oh nothing much really... I was just thinking about the past ten years, and just how much it seemed we have changed, yet the weyr itself looks like we never left. It is just so strange, plus it almost explains where the muatations came form..." He was talking about Jasper and Iron of course... sowing there wild oats in the past..., "Just everything that has happened, just made me think about a lot of things... what happened... what could have happened... just everything really." He didn't even know where to began.

[shadowreine]

Tirlynna considered that. "Maybe, maybe not. No explanation on the dragon mutations." She glanced at the two together, the smallest dragons in the Weyr.

"Reinth will likely fly again soon, I'm afraid." Bamre, she knew, would be less than happy. Maybe they could lock themselves in their weyr and leave the rider of whichever male won to his or her own devices. If Purth could fly Reinth, they could do a closed flight...she doubted the color of the male would make any difference to whether and what Reinth would clutch.

A pause. "So do I, but after ten years in the past together...I worry a little that we might not be able to." Soft that, a little sad. It was a legitimate concern...a woman who took that long to conceive was often barren. Or at the very least, of reduced fertility.

Sometimes it was, of course, the guy's fault...but THAT she wasn't going to voice.

[Yamamoto]

That was certianly ture, but maybe it was just a odd effect that was brought out becuase of the dragons. Maybe there had always been the potential of muatation, but the only one that had been ever seen was the white dragon that came before Purth. He spoke about his idea, "Maybe it is just a new thing... I mean creatures grow and evovle to survive all the time. Maybe that is what this is, sinice if you look at it most of the new mutations are females... so that adds more of them to the dragon population." It made sense, though it was really only the ebony and rainbow that clucthed. It still seemed that was not a muatation... but an evolution of the dragons was the way the liked to think about the whole thing.

That was when he noticed where Trylinna was looking and he said with a somber voice, "Yeah... it has been awhile and I wouldn't be supirsed..." Bamre was not happy about it, but he wasn't like his brother ethier, he didn't let it bother him to much, then again he was not on the receieving end like And'l and Trylinna. Yet still his mood picked up as he said, "Maybe we should just lock ourselves in our weyr this time... I am sure someone would happily be a stand in for us... Ethier that or I am starting to wonder if by now Purth would instrested in chases Reinth with as close as they have gotten in the last ten years, I mean I know nothing would come of it, but the flight could be a closed one...." He wasn't really sure, but he knew finding a silutation to this problem would be nice... if it where possiable.

Bamre's eyes seemed to sombre up as he said in agreement, "Yeah you might be right, for all we know intellagence and good looks might not be the only things me and Purth share..." Trylinna was the only person he would admit that to, though he didn't think that was the case, becuase in the past they really had not had much time to try at all becuase of taking care of Karlyn, though still ten years... the idea that he wouldn't be a dad did make the white rider sad, but he tried to look on the postive, "Maybe it has just been bad luck, I mean we really didn't try to, plus we did a lot of bettewenning in the past, so we don't really know if maybe that caused it... I am sure that if we tried it would happen." Yep... Bamre's desire to be a dad was more out of the bag now than ever, but it did show a bit of the growth in the white rider who would have never wanted to have kids about 11 years ago.

[shadowreine]

Tirlynna shook her head. "We can't do that, Bamre. Even if Purth managed to chase...what do you think would happen, or rather not happen, if he caught? We still need more dragons. Locking ourselves in our weyr, though...we could probably get away with."

Reinth might lay only one egg on her rare flights, but it was still one more dragon. Purth...was not likely to be fertile.

"As to the other. That might be it. Or we might just be unlucky, but it does seem like a long time with no success." Tirlynna was not really fully aware that there were women out there who had taken fifteen years, even more, to conceive and still birthed healthy offspring.

[Yamamoto]

Bamre nodded his head in agreement, "Yeah that is ture, we need all the dragons we can get at this point really, though if Purth for whatever reason deicdes to chase after his favorite dragon." He knew the chances where slim, but it still could happen, "I really don't think that there would be any way we could stop him, I mean you can't exactlly stop any dragon form flying or chasing when they want to. So I guess we should really go with the locking ourselves in our weyr plan, it really seems to be the best soluation and I am sure that someone would be happy to be a stand in for us if we where to ask." Plus at the same time... Bamre didn't want to risk someone else causing Trylinna to have child... wouldn't that be silly....

The white rider simply shurgged his shoulders, "It is probably just that we have been unlucky. I mean there have to be others out there that have taken a long time before they where ever able to have a child. We will probably just need to keep trying and hope for the best.... I mean maybe we just haven't been trying egough...." The last part he said jokeingly, to say the truth though Bamre's mating drive seemed to be only a bit more than Purth's.

[shadowreine]

Tirlynna laughed. "Maybe we do need to try more often. And now we don't have a teenaged girl with a habit of poking her head in at the most inconvenient times."

And stop Purth from chasing, no, but Tirlynna knew Reinth had more sense than to let the white *win*. It wasn't like she was likely to get much out of it, in terms of eggs or in terms of mating pleasure. "Of course, we'd also likely have to get Purth to distract the firelizards. You know how they are..."

[Yamamoto]

(Why wouldn't Renith get any mating pleasure out of a flight with Purth of curiousness... is he missing a certian piece of dragon anatomy.... )

Bamre laughed a little at that fact... Tyrlinna was certianly right about that... they had mostly been luckily about not being caught in the past, but it had made it quite inconveniate having Karlyn around had made things harder on that front, "Yeah maybe should, plus we now have our weyr back and won't have to really worry about that anymore." He spoke in teasing voice as he said, "Heck we could even start tonight if you wanted..." He winked as he said this. The teasing was somthing that was a bit out of a charater for Bamre, so he hoped that it would cacth Trylinna a little off gaurd sense the teasing normally came form her.

Bamre nodded his head in agreement, though he feel kinda bad that there was almost no chance that the white would win if he tried... a good rider always cheered for his dragon, so he did find the idea of the white being dissapointed sad. Or the idea of accidently making another male dragon jealous scary, "I am sure that he would do that... if he doesn't deicde to take the sky, but so far Diamond has been keeping them in check... plus they would be good at making sure we are not bothered when the flight happens....."

[shadowreine]

Tirlynna laughed. "Eager, are we? And between Diamond and Dawn, we can keep them in check." Diamond, though, definitely acted as the senior queen.

"And I think we may have to find a good place to hide with a solid door if we're going to do that." They had time to think about it...Reinth certainly wasn't glowing *yet*. It was rather sad that Purth couldn't fly her, but...Tirlynna could think of no way around that.

[Yamamoto]

Bamre blushed when she asked him if he was egear.... now that was something he had not done in a long time and in a way it looked kinda cute. The white rider agian had been the one who was caught in the teasing, and it took him a moment to recover and say somthing, but all he could say was, "Yes.... really egear actually..." For the first time in awhile really. Which is why he sounded nervous when he said it and he didn't say much about the firelizard thing becuase of the fact he had been caught a little off gaurd, at not having Trylinna off gaurd, "Yeah, I think those two can handle it esaily."

The white rider at that moment thought for a bit about a place that they could possiably go and he realized that the only place that he could think of would be there own weyr, "Couldn't we stay in our own weyr, becuase I am not really sure of anywhere that we could hide. I don't know of any rooms, unless maybe you have an idea of a room with a nice thick door." Techically if they where able to pull it off it would be Bamre's first dragon flight... though Purth wouldn't be chasing... it would probably still have some of the same feelings... at least he hoped it would as long as he ended up with Trylinna he really didn't care what happened.

[shadowreine]

Tirlynna laughed. "I think Reinth would be quite willing to take us up to our Weyr so we can start...practicing."

She was often the more forward of the two, although never excessively so. Likely, Bamre would not have done well with a woman who expected a lot of time in the furs. And Reinth, of course, was emphatically *not* green.

[Yamamoto]

The young man found himself blushing even more at the suggestion that could go back to there weyr and start practicing... Trylinna was diffently the more forward of the two, sinice Bamre was normally not the one to suggest such things. Maybe on certian occasions he was, but not normally. He stood up form where he was sitting and looked over at his weyrmate, with a smile on his face. Him sitting down had allowed his pants to hide exactlly how egear he was... now that he was standing up, though a certian shape in the fabric made it quite obvious.

He started walking over in Renith's directon with that nervous smile of his and said, "Of course I would love to start 'practicing anytime you want..." He smiled as he said these words, and came up next to Trylinna so that he could clasp his hand in hers. For some reason this action, took away most his nervousness. Being close his weyr mate usally did that... she had that kind a of calming affect on him.

OOC: I have a feeling this is about to rapidly violate the Proboards TOS and should maybe be faded out?

[Yamamoto]

(..... sure or maybe put in PMs...... Yet anyway maybe you could put in another post about them flying up to the weyr and then fade to black in your post and then in mine.... maybe doing a morning after thing....)
