The compliment to his dragon makes L'andro's smile widen a bit more, and his hazel eyes glow with friendly warmth. "I'm new here," he confesses quietly, "so I don't know if it's always this crowded. It wasn't earlier, but then there were so many people watching the Hatching." Very new indeed - L'andro had been in the Weyr proper for less than fifteen minutes when Marja had shoved him into a white robe and dragged him onto the Sands. He hasn't even been here half a day. "I think you can go ahead and eat now, if you can get through that crowd around the tables. Would you like me to come and help you get at the food?" He's looking down at her as he asks this, clearly comparing her thin frame and mere five-and-a-half feet to his own broad-shouldered six foot even. Helping people, especially women, is programmed into L'andro's behavior on some basic level. "Or if you like, I can wait here. I'd, ah, like to be friends also." Most people he knows don't put it that bluntly, but the young man is usually awkward about talking to women, and he can't think of any other way to agree with her. He doesn't normally talk this much to people at all, but he had invaded her space, and she seems to want to talk. It's not like it's a burden to talk to a pretty young lady, though if his skin was paler, you'd be able to see him blushing.

Humming softly in sleepy amusement, Sanoth steps to one side, just to be sure he's out of Krystan's way. The little hatchling rests his head against L'andro's hip, and his Impressed reaches down to scratch the brown's eyeridges, casting him a fond smile. Sanoth's eyes whirl slowly, the bright sapphire blue of peaceful happiness. Then he hears L'andro's stomach rumble. Eat, L'andro, he reminds the young man gently. At his young age, Sanoth hasn't yet grasped that not everyone experiences the same tearing pangs that have as yet been his only experience with hunger.
