Though she's not particularly skilled at reading other people, Talla can recognize this particular sore spot, and actually winces at Tr'ln's palpable discomfort. Silence falls for a long moment as she scrabbles frantically for a new subject. Then little Verse, still asleep, slides slowly but inexorably down her new owner's shoulder, Talla noticing too late to catch her, and lands sprawled on top of Chapter. Both hatchlings immediately wake and set up a unison wail, struggling to seperate themselves and only managing to deal each other blows with tails and talons. Stanza looks on in obvious disgust, as if refusing to believe she's actually related to these clumsy creatures. Torn between cringing and giggling, Talla untangles them, setting each on a different leg, and strokes them gently to soothe them back to silence. When they're sleeping again and she looks back up, her initial discomfort is gone, though Tr'ln's might not be; she's still not sensitive enough to moods to tell. "So, what's Latroth like?" she asks, deciding that the brownrider's dragon is certainly a safe enough subject. She hasn't met a rider yet who doesn't like to rhapsodize about their draconic partner, herself included. "Mylanith's a vain creature, which probably says something about me," she admits with a self-deprecating quirk of her mouth. "Like rider, like dragon, after all, though I have trouble believing I'm that stuck-up. Most queens are arrogant, I guess. Although that's sort of like saying that all browns are lazy, and I haven't met enough yet to know." She lets that line fall away as an open invitation to respond to her first question, smiling expectantly.

((Meh, short posts tonight. Sorry. >_<))
