Author: X'thrall and Golgith
Subject: Any moment, everything can change...

((I dissapear for about THREE DAYS and this is what happens?!?! My rider's Weyrmate goes and CLUTCHES?!?!))

Feel the wind on your shoulder...

Golgith appeared from between about seconds after everyone else. The dark blue hide was clearly seen against the sky, and Golgith landed gently on the Hatching Grounds, keeping a fair distance from his mate.

X'thrall was shaking on his blue's back.

(Golgith, what's going on?!)

~My Grenith! She is clutching!~

That took about five minutes for the rider ot comprehend.

(Where's G'rein? I need to see him!)

~Down there.~

X'thrall hastily slung himself off the blue's back, and gazed disbelivingly at G'rein and Grenith. THen the nine eggs.

"G'REIN!" he yelled, stumbling over towards his weyrmate, careful not to upset Grenith. "G'rein, what's going on? Did she really clutch? How?"

X'thrall knew in the back of his mind that he'd probably just make it all worse, but at the moment he didn't care. He wanted to get to G'rein, wanted this whole thing explained... and maybe even comfort G'rein, if the need be.

For a minute, all the world can wait...

Golgith crooned to Grenith, letting her know they had arrived.

~Love? Oh, Grenith! It's true, sin't it? You mean, you've actually clutched? I'm a father?~

Golgith's eyes whirled with the excitement of the moment, though whether this excitement was good or bad not even Golgith could tell. He knew that his love probably needed room; a clutching mother can never have too much space!

X'thrall continued to run over to G'rein, and finally reached him, panting furiously. He bowed his head to the Weyrwoman, and stood up straiter as soon as he could. His blonde hair was swept about messily from the frantic flight to the sands, and his sea green eyes shone with pure confusion as the 18-turn-old finally grasped what was going on; Grenith had clutched 9, seemingly healthy eggs.

Let go of your yesterday...

((Heh. I'll never dissapear for over a day again. I feel like I've just come out of a hangover or something. Not that I know what that feels like... just trying to find some comparison...))
