((Just don't bother with the colours! Makes it harder to read, anyway...))

“Tippa, get back here!” The green’s reluctance was obvious as she returned to her human’s shoulder, having taken great delight in flying round Skyi a few times to both tease and investigate the queen. Elly stroked her head affectionately for a few moments, before turning to her brother when the golden flit had disappeared between. [That was F-A-I-N-I-S fire-lizard. The others are probably at the Hatching Feast.] It was more of a statement of “come along, we’re going” than anything else. After all, she hadn’t seen Shadow in a while, and she missed him. It was nice having someone else who could sign.

Her brother nodded, pulling himself to his feet and offering her a hand up. [You just want to show off your uniform to S-H-A-D-O-W.] He signed when he was also standing, a small smirk on his face. Elly, to her credit, didn’t blush at this ribbing – she merely swatted him on the arm. Not that it wasn’t true – she did want to show her friend that she had become a Trainee Healer, because they had been wondering what a person could do in a Weyr if they weren’t going to be a dragonrider – but not in the way Salty meant it. Even if Elly did fancy Shadow, she would never make it obvious enough that her brother would pick up on it.

Elly herself was wearing dusty-brown trousers and her new long-sleeved tunic of healer-green, a dark-green leather belt at the waist. She liked training – it was nice to have something useful to do. Maybe she could even make it to Master, eventually. And she would take lessons in dragon-healing from Martan – she had asked him the other day. He seemed to approve of her. It was relatively simple – just pour as much numbweed on the Threadscore as you could. Salty’s blue shirt and brown trousers were mud-and-dust stained, but he didn’t care. The two made their way to the Lower Caverns (Tippa deserting them halfway through for something more amusing) and seated themselves at Faini’s and Cara’s table with warm smiles. “Where are the others?” Elly asked, the words, as ever, strangely pronounced compared to others.
