Martirae - She
The abrupt change in Remember Me startled Marty, though she didn’t jerk away in shock or anything of the sort. It was worried about such an old, raw, tattered end of a thought, of a wound? Her own mind stroked the notion as though it never had before - which it was untrue. It was like an old security blanket now, something that tethered her to some other purposeful meaning.
It is sweet that you care and that you worry. Until I can look for myself, there is nothing to do to make it feel more than numb so it doesn't hurt.
And then in another instant, the child inside of the egg was trying to hold everybody...which was a bit more alarming. Another candidate caught up in it seemed all too eager to withdraw from the egg to allow the parents to intervene. Marty wasn’t certain pulling away was the best course of action when it was trying to fix everything.
You have done plenty already. Do you want me to stay and let your parents try to fix it?
Unlikely, but she’d at least let it try.
------
Fahn - She
Mmmm! How fun! Fahn rubbed her hand back and forth on the surface of How Far I’ll Go one last time before - oh! There was all sorts of fun going on now! Remember Me had acted up in an unexpected way, and she watched it for a moment before all sorts of moving and shaking started.
Mostly Fahn moving and shaking to touch the last of the eggs in the clutch before she scrambled out of damage-control-parents-on-the-move’s way. Still, she sent a fond thought after all of eggs, as if perhaps they could hear it, then it was off to the tiers to wait with her.
-----
Kinyegele - She
Oh! Was something else happening now? Kinye fret quietly, pulling away from When You Wish Upon A Star and taking a step back in contemplative thought. She was going to go past every egg she could and give them a good warm thought to maybe keep them happy until they hatched and found happiness with theirs!
Yeah!
It wasn’t a difficult thing to do, either, as she finished with Fianth’s clutch...then made her way over to Rhianth’s that seemed a bit upset. A quick pass over them with similar thoughts full of goodness would suffice and then….
Off to wait for everybody else to finish! Tada! Hopefully...it would be enough!
-----
Kahbrohm - He
Kahbrohm was about to become absolutely intolerable for the following sevendays. That was right, he knew exactly what he wanted…..and it seemed he needed to get out of the way of all of the moving parents. Two candidates had started crying and it took only an instance for his heart to place the labels of ‘weak’ and ‘unworthy’ next to their faces. A smudge that wouldn’t budge without great effort.
However, he’d been told nice thoughts and that was something he was going to do. Nice, in this case didn’t mean much. Some of these eggs couldn’t be touched now anyways with their parents lingering over them, so he made quick work of those which were still unguarded.
Then it was a circle around Fianth’s clutch to also touch those that weren’t currently covered in parents - just in time to watch his…..to watch Dehka scramble off after one of those weak hearted idiots who was crying over upsetting an egg. If it had really been upset Rhianth and Kronoseth would have eaten the girl and been done with it. Idiot. Idiot. A quick circle around Fianth’s children, however, and then it was off to wait with him as well.
To wait and ruminate over that one. It was strong. He could feel it.

Helane
Helane was practically vibrating with excitement, nothing could dampen her spirits she was sure, not even the warnings to be QUIET, though she would try, try very hard. She had eyed both clutches, had even managed to think quietly at a few eggs in Rhianth's clutch, however when the queen removed an egg she hadn't been near yet thankfully, she decided to move to the other clutch. She watched as the blue went to go and cuddle one of the eggs and stayed there.. ok....
She kept letting out little excited squeaks as she approached each egg, trying her best to compose herself before reaching a hand out. She eyed the clutch, trying to decide where to start first, Then she spotted it, a cute little purple sparkly swirly egg. She grinned and moved to touch the You've Got a Friend In Me Egg, wondering what reaction she'd get with this clutch
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Farellen
Farellen had been entirely composed, until he'd begun touching eggs, He'd made his flits stay at his bunk but he wished he had Abloooo there to draw comfort from. The eggs he'd touched so far had swung from positive to negative ish, reactions to his touch, his outward confidence was being shaken, he'd almost been about to head towards the egg Rhianth moved and isolated, judging from reactions around it, he was pretty glad he hadn't. Instead, maybe wisely, he moved to the other clutch, in his mind, so as not to overwhelm was seemed to be a pretty emotional clutch.
He'd been about to touch another egg when the blue 'father' of Fianth's clutch got up and moved towards it. He moved away before touching it, not wanting to cause trouble, he couldn't afford to be banned, he NEEDED to Impress, he felt he had so much to prove, one eyed and scarred. He closed his eye and took a deep breath before moving towards the Let It Go Egg instead, bracing himself when he reached a hand to it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rokar
Rokar watched silently as others around him touched the eggs, he'd touched only one or two of Rhianth's clutch before moving to the other clutch at the negative feeling from the egg that was consequently moved by it's mother. He couldn't blame the egg but he was glad he hadn't touched it if that was the feeling it gave to those nearby.
He moved past the large egg to one side, seeing one girl practically enthralled by it. No, he would touch that one later, instead he moved and touched the How Far I'll Go Egg, trying to keep his mind on task.

Zelaya - They/Them
A-ah. Well. They hadn't expected such...pointed questions. And to be honest, they'd never really let themselves think about it. Perhaps...but then they'd never have known their mother, probably, or their...well. They would probably be a very different person if they'd been born in the Weyr, or set to Z'tir immediately. Who could say? They were only what they were, after all, and that wasn't terribly much either. And they had to go. There were still a few eggs to reach yet. A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes seemed of similar mind. That's alright. They understand the lack of desire for attention. Hopefully it wouldn't mind jsut a brief interruption.
Falienn - He/Him
He felt like he could catch his breath here, take just a moment to relax. Thankfully nothing too chaotic had erupted behind hi with the other clutch...but still. Another egg that was very, very kind. He stroked the shell, thankful. It was...honestly...had he been wrong all along about the nature of dragons? Or maybe these clutches were just particularly nice. He...maybe he could hope, a little. But he had to move on. On a whim (and because they'd gone this far together, so why not finish it out), he snagged Orri by the arm and made his way across the clutch towards another egg that'd caught his eye. Poor Unfortunate Souls seemed kindly too...
Meztli - Any (but currently They/Them/He/Him)
Awww, well. Y'know, that was okay too. Meztli could respect the egg not having quite the time (or maybe energy) to handle all that. They were a lot to handle, baby, and they knew it. Without hesitation they just slid to the net egg, clapping a hand (gently of course) onto Dementor. What about you, buddy? Sleepy already? But the party's still going on!

Tuelarua - High Reaches Candidate [X]
Gender//Pronouns .||. Female//She
There were so many eggs to still visit, so many decisions to make. So many lovely eggs she could still introduce herself to. Yet her thoughts are interrupted by the gentle bump as another candidate bumped into her. The same candidate she had seen touching Amortentia when she’d touched Firebolt. His eyes were dark, but calming--and the dreamy look on his face had her utterly curious. What had he felt from Amortentia? She peeks back at the egg as he moved on, before looking where he might be off to.
Curiosity would gain the best of her, and she followed after him--to one of the eggs closest to the great blue dragon-dad on the sands. Someday My Prince Will Come’s egg felt warm under her palm, smiling gently at the shell. “Hello there.”
Nonami - Western Candidate [X]
Gender//Pronouns .||. Agender//They
The egg’s gentle searching was a presence they weren’t quite used to, but not bad. Only, different. Nonami took a deep breath, pulling up memories that meant more to them -- baking in the kitchens, having people try their treats--especially their siblings. Yet they swallowed a bit, trying to not be nervous as they let the egg have free roam for whatever it might be trying to find. What was Auror looking for? Hopefully they might find it.. They didn’t want to waste the gentle egg’s time.
Ielin - High Reaches Candidate [X]
Gender//Pronouns .||. Male//He
Ielin’s eyebrows raised gently, feeling the strength and closeness of Colors of the Wind. Yet the presence helps to keep the warmth that the previous egg had instilled, smiling gently. Certainly, so many special people and eggs upon these sands. But the compliment doesn’t pass him by, and the light flutter of pride at such praise. He’d never considered himself of much importance, but to hear such praise? He might just believe it..
“’M enjoying it so well.” Things were calm, apart from some minor bubbles every now and again. The eggs were wonderful, and all that he’d spoken to today were so wonderful. But there were a lot, with even more candidates milling around. A gentle rest did sound wonderful. “Thank you. I’ll just take a minute -- you got so many t’ meet, after all.”
Cavera - High Reaches Candidate [X]
Gender//Pronouns .||. Female//She
Cavera was sent into a gentle giggle, tucking her chin in gently as she lavished in Someday My Prince will Come’s excitement. She could only hope it would be eternal, even if she was far from admitting it to K’tan. She sent a warm wave of affection, for the egg was so kind. “Have a lovely day, okay?” She would spend the whole time with the egg if she could, yet she gently pulls her hand from the warm shell. She dearly cannot wait to see what a treasure this baby would be, and who they might pick.
Oh, this was utterly exciting. Stepping away, she looks around at the other eggs curiously, Where might she go next? She wanders towards the back of the clutch, a purpley egg catching her sight. She notes the candidates around another egg nearby, yet she gently touches the shell of the Friend Like Me egg. “Hello there.”

Orri
Yes, yes, he understood! Just bringing up Herg'r made Orri swell with pride. His dad was a bronze rider, right, so...
As he regaled the egg with tales of his father, something tugged at his arm. Orri blinked in confusion as he turned to Falienn, but he didn't dig in his heels. His heart did jump at the sudden motion, though. Man, being around eggs meant being in your head so much, it was incredible! And it was nice to know that the other man didn't think of him as an annoyance hovering around this whole time.
"See? Lots've good eggs," he said cheerfully as he went with, taking Falienn's actions as a good sign.
Poor Unfortunate Souls seemed almost lonely all the way on the other side. Maybe that's why Falienn chose it? Orri decided to touch it as well, still brimming with happiness. Overall, things were going well for them! How were things with the egg now that it had seen some candidates?

This egg had yet another alluring feel to it—each one he had touched was enthralling, yet in a different way. “I’ve been all over Nabol,” Grumioll said. “And some of Bitra.” He would have stayed silent, had another human asked him about his travels. But for more of what the egg offered, he’d tell it almost anything.
Then, there she was again, her pale arm a tiny parallel of his own. Was she following him? He wanted to be suspicious of the small girl, but he was suddenly distracted by the color of her hair. It was so red, and it shimmered with a golden sheen in the warm light of the sands. He tilted his head, trying to picture what its texture might feel like. But it was the egg that he was truly drawn to. He looked back down at Someday My Prince Will Come, trying to call up the images he’d shown the other eggs, of Iria and his time with her… but the image no longer depicted a flaxen-haired Iria. Instead, she had flowing, fiery red hair.

They will be the best of all of us, Rixth said, his puffed up posture and the shade of his eyes clearly broadcasting the pleasure he gleaned from Fianth's compliment. The bronze settled into an attentive silence for a time, especially once Krah had moved to soothe the little pink egg's distress. It was still quite strange to watch the blue with the eggs he might have fought harder to parent, his gratitude and regret ever present sensations that vacillated outside of his control.
Rixth was jolted from his thoughts by another hatchling's call, one that he had always felt welcomed by despite his awkward circumstances. He very nearly remained where he was, a loving mental touch brushing Remember Me as he pondered an excuse as to why he could not intrude, but then he saw the Candidates and the tears and in that moment he decided to do more. There was certainly nothing inappropriate about comforting the two-legged children, and with a whuffling chuckle, he moved carefully after the gold. |

Soui she/her - western candidate
She felt her breath catch in her throat as more words flooded her mind, the same voice from before - the one who'd given the warning. The words were kinder this time, almost loving and gentle, and Soui softly lifted her head just in time to find herself being nuzzled. The surprise of that pushed whatever tears she had away, same with the crying, and she simply remained wide-eyed and mouth faintly agape at the love being shown to her. Was it love or reassurance? Honestly it didn't matter, but the motion was given to her and it helped ease some of the fears she was bringing to herself. The dragons were okay with her being on the sands, they'd said as much, and the nuzzle and the continued comfort made her feel a little ashamed.
Gathering herself, Soui softly rose to her feet with the care not to knock into the kindness of Rhianth that had been freely given to her. She was embarrassed but honored, and she'd carry that with her from this point on. Small hands roughly pushed away the tears and snot that had gathered on her face, and though her lip quivered she bit into it in order to silence any further protest her mind may have been calling her to give. No more excuses, no more blame - to continue on would be outright rude and a true mistake. Instead she softly nodded her head, her hair bobbing with the motion, before making a deep bow to the Queen. Her hands had been moved to rest against her, and the bow remained. "Th...thank you. I'll....do so, with your words in mind."]
She wasn't a mistake for being here, and the Queen had told her she had a good and kind heart. Yudueth and Tsuyat had said it often enough she had no reason to believe, but sometimes hearing something from an unexpected source could shift a perspective. The bow ended and she raised her head, eyes determined, and with a small swivel on her feet she bowed to the massive brown as well. "Thank you, for the offer of your words and your wing as well." Manners, manners, and maturity. Admit you went overboard, continue on. "And....it's....please let your egg know I'm okay, and I'm sorry, and I would like to meet when they hatch so we can smile instead of cry and panic." Her face blanched. "Un...unless that's a demand, in which case please don't mind me."
Soui'd been doing so well, but then she had to go and say that! Cheeks pale, she quickly bobbed her head in yet another bow before shuffling off to touch the others eggs. She'd been given leave to do so and she wanted to do so much more now than before. She wasn't a mistake being here, this choice to follow her wants was the right one. With that in mind she made her way towards a colorful egg, one mottled with a pattern that brought a faint smile to her already weary expression.
"Hi there. It's nice to meet you." Her heart was still heavy from everything and so she apologized, letting the dragonet within the egg know it was not its fault and she truly was happy to be able to touch and greet the Felix Felicis Egg.

Shaddaling Colors of the WindWhren, are you having fun? Have you met anyone special to you? The egg sighs into the young man, warm relaxing comfort rising up like a stream to weave around his ankles. If things have been too busy, as they seem to be with its siblings and cousins, he is welcome to stay put and recover himself before going on. Everyone deserves a bit of peace. Felix FelicisRylyrr! There you are! Ol' Felix was getting bored without so many visitors, but now here you are! The egg's presence crashes over the boy like a wave, glittering and bubbling with glee. Some of its siblings have been a bit down lately, but Felix doesn't really get that. Why would anyone not want to get lots of attention? It's nearly vibrating with happiness just for the attention, but! Hey!! He should go see more eggs too! Maybe he can give them some happiness too, cause it was sure happy to see him!
houllow When You Wish Upon A StarOh, thanks for not tripping over it, Yurastar. The egg understands, though. It's easy to get lost in your thoughts and distracted. Why, if it had legs, it probably would be tripping over itself while lost in a daze too. And hey, no one got hurt. So it was all fine in the end, wasn't it? The egg nudged up against the boy in camaraderie.
magnadearel Felix FelicisYou sure bet your boots, Makimton! Not that the egg knew what boots were. But the eager welcome it sang to the boy certainly brought the feeling of luck with it! This egg's sure you can do anything! It was so nice of you to be kind to its sibling, and and and!! A tiny firework went off between the egg and candidate, glittery sparks of excitement just for him.
Meepfur Be PreparedWell, there was some grit in Talis, wasn't there? The egg shuddered below her hand as it ground over what made her her. What made her so sure she had the right mindset, the right ideas on how to do things? It wasn't so sure she did...and the egg lurched away after a moment more, huffing as it turned its proverbial back. Felix FelicisOh!! Oh WOW! Were Akaris and Rylyrr friends?? THAT WAS AMAZING!! The egg shook violently below the girl's hand, the wobbling sending the sand piled around it sliding down away fro the shell. THAT WAS SO COOL! Wowowowow! Akaris, that's really neat that you have a friend here too! Oh! Felix just LOVES friends! And now it knows you do too!! Unable to contain its delight, the egg poured it into the candidate in the form of a hundred hundred warm hugs, and the feel of sunshine, and the harpers playing your favorite song, and just the right person asking you to dance. Today! Was! INCREDIBLE!!
medigel Forbidden ForestA cool, almost chilly stillness met Arcadin's hand as it touched the egg. Silence, for a long moment, before the presence within at last shifted. With the sound of something distant through the brush suddenly stopping to notice you, the feeling of goosebumps and hair raising on the back of his neck, that slight presence came rushing up to crash against and loom over the boy. Why seek out danger? What pleasure was there in fear? The egg demanded to know.
Akina Tokuwa Felix FelicisDon't worry Calla! Ol' Felix is here to say you're great! So what if you've only touched one egg so far? Now you've touched two! The egg shivers in its wallow, boundless energy only just contained. But the egg is sure she can touch them all, if she tries! It pulses approval, radiates assurance. You've got this! You can do it! Touch ALL the eggs, Calla, touch them all, woohoo!!
Prism Shine Colors of the WindThe concern from Ielin was very kind, but the egg simply hummed contentedly. It knew its own limits (or so it thought) and would be just fine. It would be much happier too knowing that anyone needing aid had gotten it. It never hurt to care about others, after all, and it did rather enjoy having a candidate or two nearby to quietly assess. |

Talis
Well then. Talis disagreed with the latter part of Be Prepared's assessment, of course, but didn't protest or push the issue. The young woman simply took her hand from the shell and moved on. There were no few eggs left to be touched, so she got down to it, and when she finished, would go up into the tiers to wait and watch. And if she kept an eye on any figures in particular, well, it would be hard for anyone else to know, with so very many things to look at.
And, more importantly, to think about.
