It was funny how quickly she'd gotten used to being clean, after a turn of not, but the second she was finished with her chores, Talis wanted out of her dirty, sweaty clothes. Cleaning the stables wasn't the dirtiest job in the Weyr, but as hot as it was, any task turned quickly to gross and unpleasantly sticky. Still, even the worst job here was a massive step up from the mines, and so she voiced no complaints. The dirt and heat were easily tolerated, fading away into little more than something like background noise, for the duration of the task, but once it was done? She was done.
Once she'd finished and been dismissed, she made a beeline for the lake and wasted no time in stripping off her light outer layer once she'd reached the shore. She was far from the only one looking for respite from the sweltering summer weather, but if she'd ever had any sense of body-shyness, she'd long since lost it, even with the lacework of scars she'd gained.
For the moment, all that mattered that she was hot, dirty, and more than a little aggravated. Chores had provided the perfect opportunity to brood over the previous night's Flight. She'd gone with it, because shells, why not? She was in a Weyr now, might as well do what most weyrfolk did...but it hadn't exactly been all it was talked up to be.
Frustrating. At least there was Rhianth's clutch to look forward to.
Tsunake and half an age later, here is a start

Hot, dirty, and eager to be out of her sweaty clothes and into the water, Talis hadn't paid anything more than peripheral attention to who else was already in the water. Her shoes were off, her shirt was on the ground, and her trousers were half-shed when she registered that she was being hailed, and rather than pause, finished shucking them off before responding.
"I'd be worried if it didn't," the young woman quipped, taking a moment to assess her fellow candidate - definitely a fellow candidate, not one she was properly acquainted with, but the hair was hard to miss. She untied her own and stepped into the shallows. "And what chore are you washing off?"

"That's the truth. It should start cooling off soon, right?" Shards, but it better! Of course, they'd all be whining about the cold soon enough, but that was later! At least doing chores in the winter meant you'd warm up faster. He considered her question for a moment. He'd been receiving training in how to move and act like a young lord... and honestly, he'd taken to his lessons with ease. Nothing wrong with admitting to having dealings in beastcraft, however.
"A bit of A, a bit of B. I worked with runners some before coming here." Dynz said lightly, lifting one shoulder in a shrug. "The basics aren't much different among other animals. Even a dragon... well, they're obviously far more than just a beast, but when they're young? Same old, as far as clean-up is concerned..."
