Derek glances at the colorful eggs sparkling in the early afternoon sun... he
 seems to be gazing off again...
Fasillon pages: Good luck, Candidate!
You paged Fasillon with 'Thank you, MasterFarmer..'.
Mareth arrives from the upper entrance and perches on one of the ledges.
Mareth swoops down from one of the ledges.
Mareth has arrived.
Mareth dragon-friend of T'pek Weyrleader of Fort Weyr, the sun reflects
 slightly off of his bronze hide. His wings are strong yet somehow
 fragile-looking. He turns towards you... his eyes whirling contentedly. He
 looks at you, and as he does so T'pek reaches forward and scratches a neck
 ridge. Mareth looks back at his rider, and his eyes whirl lovingly.
Carrying:
T'pek
Rinian
Anlin
Derek looks up at Mareth, mouth agape..
Mareth smiles.
Derek says "H-Hello Mareth!"
Fimur smiles at the dragon, thinking that one might soon be one with himself..
Fimur bows deeply to Mareth.
Mareth <<Hello Derek>>
Derek says "With a little luck..."
Fimur blinks.
Derek shivers a little... "She spoke to me! Ooo.. this is a good sign."
Rinian has arrived.
Anlin has arrived.
You see a 5'6" girl with brown curly hair and green eyes. She is wearing a
 dark green tunic and brown riding leathers and boots.
Carrying:
A gitar
A flute
Fajon has arrived.
Anlin looks at you with her hazel eyes that sparkle with hidden mystery. She's
 5'8" with sandy blond, slightly wavy hair which hangs just below her
 shoulders. She's currently wearing a white Candidate's robe and looking
 slightly nervous, but very excited.. smiling even more than usual
Carrying:
Gold Bracelet
Anlin smiles at Fimur
Anlin bows to Elspeth deeply
Mareth smiles at Anlin
Fajon is a candidate, and hope to get a dragon soon. He wears a dark green
 leather shirt and breeches, and large black leather boots. His hair is
 blonde, and slightly messed up. His green eyes sparkle as he smiles at
 you...
Carrying:

Crystal
T'pek has arrived.
Mareth extends a leg so that T'pek can dismount.
T'pek sets a foot on the extended leg and drops to the ground, patting his
 friend lovingly.
Fajon says "Hello"
Rinian bows to Elspeth.
Mareth launches up onto one of the many ledges surrounding the hatching
 grounds.
Mareth has left.
You say "Hello!"
Anlin smiles and bows to everyone else. "Hello"
Derek says "Hello, T'pek."
Rinian says "Hello."
Fimur reminds the other candidates who haven't done so to don a white robe..
Fajon says "Is there where one comes for the hatching"
Derek nods.
Derek huhs? "What was that Fajon?"
Rinian wonders if she should go to the bleachers.
T'pek peers at the eggs and busies himself looking over them.
Fimur looks quite excited!!
Anlin smiles in awe at the eggs
Fajon missed the meeting yesterday and is not fully informed
Derek says "You're not the only one, buddy! Here, stick your hand out like
 this..."
Fajon nods

Derek says "I'll fill you in Fajon"
Fajon says "Thanks!"
Fajon :sees you looking at him.
Derek sees Fajon looking at him.
Sartak sighs.
Sajeev has arrived.
Fajon looks around at all the eggs...what a clutch!
Anlin smiles at Sajeev, "What happened?"
Anlin smiles at Fajon
Rinian heard there was two queen eggs?
You see an well-tanned man from one of the more southern Holds. He has a
 slightly good build: the kind you get from hard work like fishing and
 farming. He has a hopeful look in his eyes and a bit of loneliness. You see
 that he wears white candidate robes. He gives you a tight smile and looks
 away quickly
Carrying:
Candidate Robes(worn)
Fimur points to the gold eggs!
Sajeev says "I got off in the Skies over Pern.. I was so busy changing my desc
 I didn't realize"
Rinian is amazed.
Anlin nods and points at the two wonderful gold eggs for Rinian
T'pek goes out to the entrance to the west.
T'pek has left.
You see a 5'6" girl with brown curly hair and green eyes. She is wearing a
 dark green tunic and brown riding leathers and boots.

Derek says "Fimur, hold your hand out like this..."
Rinian laughs at Sajeev.
Sartak has left.
Derek's hand shakes with anxiety
Fimur holds his hand out.
Rinian says "Was that a little nerve racking Sajeev?"
Fimur 's trembles too.
Anlin has connected.
Fajon nods

Derek sees Rinian looking at him.
Derek whispers "use ;"
Anlin eeps quietly
Fimur looks at his hand with a bit of amusement.
You whisper "I remembered, yes.." to Derek.
Derek whispers "Just checking :)"
Sajeev notes that the eggs are truly wonderful. "Yes, Rinian, it was. I guess
 a dragon must have saved me after I fainted
Fimur chuckles nervously.
Anlin smiles at Derek
Mareth swoops down from one of the ledges.
Mareth has arrived.
Rinian smiles. "Poor Sajeev."
Mareth dragon-friend of T'pek Weyrleader of Fort Weyr, the sun reflects
 slightly off of his bronze hide. His wings are strong yet somehow
 fragile-looking. He turns towards you... his eyes whirling contentedly. He
 looks at you, and as he does so T'pek reaches forward and scratches a neck
 ridge. Mareth looks back at his rider, and his eyes whirl lovingly.
Mareth launches up onto one of the many ledges surrounding the hatching
 grounds.
Mareth has left.
Chedris shouts "ALl Candidates to the waiting room! #3220!"
You say "Dragons are marvelous creatures.."
Fimur oopses!
Candidates' Waiting Room(#3220RJ)
This is a small room where Candidates wait prior to the Hatching. White robes
 hang from pegs on the wall. There are various benches here and a few
 scattered tables; on one of the tables are several pitchers of water,
 goblets, a large loaf of bread, and a crock of soft, spreadable, sharp
 cheddar cheese. An archway leads back out onto the sands.
Obvious exits:
Sands  
Anlin has arrived.
Sajeev has arrived.
Derek steps off the sands into the room.
Derek has arrived.

 I'll munch on it"
Anlin smiles at Fajon, "Exciting, isn't it?"
Fajon nods
Sajeev :sees you looking at him.
Derek sees Sajeev looking at him.
Fimur goes over and spreads a bit of cheese on a cracker. He then crunches
 down on it.

Sajeev does the same. And swallows it whole.
Fimur then notices there are no crackers. :)
Kovin has arrived.
A bright young man that can tie his own shoes on a good day. His simple, white
 Candidate's robe fits nicely, and his skill at riding runners is legendary.
 Runners can't talk to you, unfortunately, so he is looking forward to
 impressing a dragon and friend for life.
Carrying:
Hatching - April 6, Sat., 2:30pm.
Sajeev says "Bread will have to do."

Chedris steps off the sands into the room.
Chedris has arrived.
Derek says "Sajeev, from which hold are you from? I'm from Southern Boll
 myself."
Chedris says "Hello, all."
Derek sighs.
Anlin bows to Chedris, "Hello!"
Sajeev says "Ayh. I'm nervous. Hello!"
Fajon greets Chedris
Dragonet grows ears and can now hear.
Fimur bows to Chedris.
I don't see that here.
I don't see that here.
The Fort Weyrwoman is a tall, lithe woman with long brown hair plaited
 carefully out of her way. She prefers to be dressed in the colors of her
 weyr, but enjoys varying the hues and shades in an effort to make a black and
 brown outfit look a little less drab.  Chedris carries herself easily and
 smiles often; she possesses the calm and assurance neccessary for doing her
 job, but the Fort Weyrwoman isn't above the occassional snow-noogie. Looking
 closer, you are startled by the unique color of her eyes, a beautiful pale
 green.

Dragonet grows ears and can now hear.
Fimur perks up. Dragonet?
Kovin says "hi."
Anlin asks politely, "Will the Hatching be delayed a bit for those who may
 have forgotten about Daylight savings?"
Dragonet grows ears and can now hear.
Derek bows to Chedris as well.
Sajeev says "Hmmm."
Sajeev bows to Chedris.
Chedris says "We're going to see what we can do. It doesn't look like we have
 a choice..."
Kovin says "Ha, they should have woken up and figured it out by now!"
Kovin grins.
Sajeev says "Hopefully. :-)"
Anlin almost didn't remember!! :/
Derek is willing to wait another hour, if someone will give him a little
 fellis juice... "I'm nervous as hell."
Chedris says "ANd purdue and IU don't run on daylight savings time at all."
Derek says "What?"
Chedris says "They aren't...."
Anlin woke up and almost killed herself in the 3 feet from her bed to her
 computer. :)
Derek laughs.
Sajeev says "THe MasterHealer might be around for fellis lace fruit juice."
Derek almost killed himself from the other room to the computer.
Chedris says "Half the year, they're on EST, half the year, they're on
 CST...:)"
Anlin smiles
Fimur perks up. "The MasterHealer will be here?"
Derek nods. "Thank you Sajeev.. I didn't know that."
Fimur would like to meet him!
Derek says "Right... that's what is supposed to happen."
Derek says "That's what daylight savings time is."
Fimur munches on more bread and cheese.
Sajeev says "Oh wait..I'm not one hundred percent."
Shadow has arrived.
Sajeev looks at Chedris
Derek says "Right now, I guess they've just switched to EST, if you think
 about it that way."
Chedris says "It's not supposed to work like *that* tho, Derek...:)"
Chedris says "100 what, Sajeev? :)"
Derek says "Well, if your'e at CST, and you push ahead an hour, then you're at
 EST, and the folks in EST are in EDT, etc..."
Derek says "Isn't that right? I mean, everyone but Arizona pushes their clocks
 ahead, right?"
Chedris says "But then you are no longer on the same time with the northern
 Indiana people, Derek..."
Sajeev says "Sorry Weyrwoman. It is a term I picked up from a wherhide scroll.
 Sounded fun"
Derek ergs.
T'gerey shouts "Candidates, hang tight! Have your white robes ready!"
Chedris laughs. "ANyways..."
Derek says "Indiana pushes ahead an hour too, thouh, right?"
Sajeev smiles
Anlin says "That's because of the time line.."
Chedris says "Not the whole state, Derek."
Anlin says "The whole state pushes ahead an hour.."
Derek says "That's very strange... Far as I know, Arizona is the ONLY state
 that doesn't comply fully."
Derek nods.
Fimur adjusts his robe nervously.
Chedris says "No, it doesn't Anlin..."
Sajeev :sees you looking at him.
Derek sees Sajeev looking at him.
Anlin says "it's just that the time line cuts the state in a weird way.."
Chedris says "Trust me; I live there,"
Derek says "Begging your pardon, Chedris.. but... oh."
Fimur knows nothing of these strange lands people are mentioning.
Derek ohs!
Anlin smiles at Sajeev
Fajon sits in California, where it is 11:27 PDT
Anlin says "Half the state goes to EST, the other half goes to EDT"
Sajeev smiles back at Anlin.
Derek says "Well then half the state is still an hour behind the other state..
 jsut in different timezones."
Derek whews.

Tabbifli has left.
Derek says "Ouch!"
Chedris says "Ok, time for the talk...."
Sajeev says "Hi Nena. You sure are a cutey"

Nena is a fiesty little green fire lizard. She looks to Master Harper
 Tabbifli.

Sajeev sort of shivers at the idea of waiting.

Anlin has disconnected.
Derek RL rocks back and forth in his chair...

Derek thinks maybe Anlin suffered net death? "What about that Chedris? Some of
 us may lag something fierce, me in particular..."
Sajeev says "What happened Anlin?"
Chedris says "HUSH! All of you..."
Fimur paces circles around Derek and Talak.
Chedris says "Hush."
Chedris says "Now, when the dragons come out, if you impress, they will let
 you know fFOR SURE<"
Fajon smiles
Derek nods.
Talak smiles.
Talak nods.
Chedris says "Then Emote all you want and pick the little guy up."
Derek grins.
Kovin takes notes.
Quasar has connected.
Talak types notes.
Derek says "Everyone wearing your white robes?"
Fimur is!
Derek looks at Quasar with a philosophical look.
Quasar says "Am I too late??"
Talak says "YEAH!!!"
Quasar ranks among the finest and bravest of Pern; he is always wise and
 reasonable and is renowned for his courtesy and gallantry. He is somewhat of
 the Homeric vision of the perfect young nobleman.
Derek says "Just about to start, quasar..."
Chedris says "Nope. What happened?"
You say "No, not too late...put your robe on.."
Talak says "ARE WE PSYCHED!!!"
Talak says "???"
Quasar says "I told T'pek I wasn't going tobe here, but I just got back in
 town."
Derek says "You a Candidate Quasar?"
Anlin takes a deep breath and wipes her palms on her robe for a minute.
Derek nods to Talak.
Sorry that player is not connected.
Chedris says "So, pick up the dragon, and you can either step back into this
 room with them or wait and watch the show."
Derek nods... "Don't we have to feed them right away?"
Sajeev says "What about name changing?"
Derek says "That can wait, I suppose..."
Sajeev nods
Chedris says "You can do that whenever you wish to afterwards."
Quasar says "I'm not too sure what to do, but I'll figure it out I suppose."
Derek walks over to Anlin, and tries to comfort her, but he isn't doing too
 good of a job, as he is in need a well.
Fajon smiles
Derek says "I'll fill you in Quasar"
Quasar says "Thanks."
Anlin smiles and comforts Derek as well.
Kovin :sees you looking at him.
Derek sees Kovin looking at him.
Miranda steps off the sands into the room.
Miranda has arrived.
A young girl, about 19 Turns or so, clad in the white robes of a Candidate.
 She seems eager, as do all the candidates, as well as worried. Anticipation
 of today's events is written all over her face. Rinhale, her gold fire-lizard
 perches on her shoulder, chirrupping encouragement and occasionally leaping
 up to fly in circles around Miranda's head.
Carrying:
Rinhale
flower
Miranda smiles, sheepishly.
Talak says "Hurry up!!"
Fajon greets Mirnda
Chedris says "BRB. Relax folks."
Miranda says "hurry up?"
Chedris goes out onto the sands.
Chedris has left.
Quasar looks at Quasar with a philosophical look.
Derek relaxes a bit, and holds Anlin's hand, though it still shakes.
Anlin :sees you looking at him.
Derek sees Anlin looking at him.
Anlin smiles at Miranda
Anlin smiles at Derek
Anlin smiles at Talak
Derek grins.
Talak :sees you looking at him.
Derek sees Talak looking at him.
SMILE SMILE SMILE
Derek laughs.
Miranda dropped Rinhale.
Anlin blushes slightly as everyone looks at her.
Rinhale flies in circles around Miranda's head.
Quasar looks at Quasar with a philosophical look.
LOVE LOVE LOVE
Derek smiles at everyone, but then grins... he stares off, looking dazed...
IMPRESS IMPRESS IMPRESS
Fimur starts to pace again.
Anlin grins
Anlin smiles at Fajon
Nena is being called to her Mistress.
Sajeev says "Bye Nena"
Shadow has left.
Quasar sweats a little.
Derek says "Don't let her drop you, Nena. :)"
Miranda says "Shadow???"
Anlin nods farewell to Nena
Derek laughs.
Miranda says "What?!"
Natol has connected.
Fimur smils.
Derek says "Someone spoofet it."
Nena has left.
Fimur smiles, too.
Derek ergs.

Derek hmms...
Quasar whistles the tune to Mr. Ed.
Derek thinks the Hatching Song is more approrpiate...
Miranda says "talak, i think you might want to reset some flags..."
Derek laughs in his mind, but the tune goes on.
Talak sings horribly..."I had a woman Boom Ba DOOM, she was real nice.."
Derek laughs.
Anlin grins, remembering a small piece of a song the dragons were humming at
 Tiglath's last Hatching
Fimur doesn't argue with Talak.
Derek says "Woa! Talak is rich for a Candidate! :)"

Hatching Ground Sands(#1422RHJ)
The floor of the Hatching Grounds is covered with a deep layer of very hot
 sands. It is here that queen dragons come to lay their eggs to harden and
 mature. Along the southern wall are the bleachers for spectators, and broad
 steps lead up into them. The lower entrance is to the west and above it, you
 notice a larger entrance for dragons. Ledges are scattered along the walls.

 reflects the light back. Its shade is almost black, and its surface is

 as he sends them onto the sands.
Sajeev bows to Elspeth
Chedris says "Candidates, step forward when called please...."
Chedris says "Taysia."

A few eggs rock gently.
The large gold egg shjudders violently.
The ochre egg rocks violently!
Quasar gasps!
Lynna takes a few deep breaths to calm herself.
Sajeev looks startled
Miranda takes a deep breath.
Fajon stands entranced
Fimur peers up into the stands, and then his attention is drawn back to the
 eggs, where his eyes remain rivited.
Derek seems in deep meditaion, but snaps out of it as he hears the eggs.
Lynna looks around at the other Candidates, and glances up to the stands, then
 returns her gaze to the eggs, biting her lip gently.
Taysia watches the eggs intently, wondering which one will hatch first.
The light tan egg begins to wobble!
Miranda maintains her watch on any egg that moves, awe-struck.
The purpilish egg rocks, and nearly rolls over.
Miranda says "oh!"
Amberyl grows ears and can now hear.
Fimur watches in nervous silence..
Anlin watches the excitement with calm eyes, though she really is nervous
T'gerey has arrived.
Fajon smiles
Derek simply looks at them all at once, his focus on all and none.
Cyinth pages: *warble*
Fajon hopes the little ones are ok
Barney has arrived.
Sorry that player is not connected.
Derek smirks at Amberyl
Figron wonders why his name hasn't been called.
You see nothing special.
Amberyl returns Talak's glance with a smile.
T'gerey scowls. "Barney! Back in the stands!"
Figron is an average sized man with long brown hair and a neatly trimmed
 moustache and beard. His eyes glitter when they catch the sun, and he is
 dressed in a gray wher tunic and yellow trousers. There is a fire lizard on
 his shoulder.
Carrying:
Bright
Chedris says "Sorry."
Chedris says "Natol."
Barney says "where are the concessions please?"
Barney ascends into the bleachers.
Barney has left.
Quasar gasps at Barney!
Lynna clenches her hands against her skirt to relieve the dampness, and shifts
 from foot to foot on the hot sands.
Kiaryn is focused, seeing only the eggs
T'gerey says "Candidates! Is there a Healer among you?"
Fimur wipes his own hands on his robe.
Lynna looks up.
Lynna says "I'm a healer!"
Chedris says "Lladriel."
Derek nods.
Tabbifli pages: Volunteer?
Fimur nervously steps forward. "I am, sir.."
Derek says "Lynna is."
Chedris says "Elisa"
Kiaryn looks in cocern
Chedris says "Figron."
Elisa says "here"
Figron steps forward timidly. "I am here."
Lynna looks concerned.
Kiaryn says "is someone hurt?"
Lynna says "Does someone need help?"
Derek wonders what is wrong that needs a healer so urgently.
Fimur fingers his pouch of healing herbs nervously, and looks from the eggs to
 T'gerey.
Barney has arrived.
Barney announces his candidacy.
Barney ascends into the bleachers.
Barney has left.
Derek says "That was quick... and odd..."
Fimur args at Barney.
T'gerey says "Something is seriously amiss with the Tiglath Weyrwoman in the
 stands."
Kath croons expectantly.
Derek oh nos!
