To the north the ocean is hard to miss. To the south is the entrance to the hatching grounds, and the candidate quarters lie to the southeast. Slightly apart from everything and to the southwest are the weyrling barracks.

Obvious exits:
Candidate Quarters Hatching Grounds Temp Weyr Water Weyrling Barracks

Miranda has arrived.
Miranda stomps in muttering something under her breath that polite holder girls wouldn't know.

Jerekan is settled lazily in the sand, peering idly sky-ward. His ears perk up at the sound of the stomping, grumbling bluerider. "Very polite." He announces, absently.

Miranda hehs. "Like YOU can talk you horrible boy!"

Jerekan props himself up on his elbows, /peering/ at Miranda. Cobalt eyes roll, as he notes, "I /am/ older than you... And I'm no boy. And unlike you, I do have /some/ manners." Kind of. So there!

Miranda hehs. "Right! ha! You didn't even thank me!" So there.

Jerekan blinks in surprise, looking sincerely.. confused, at that. "Thank you?

Miranda yeahs. "About my firelizard." Heh.

Jerekan just...blinks. "Firelizard?" He asks, flatly.

Miranda folds her arms. "The one I named after you, you big wherryhead."

Jerekan /peers/ skeptically at that bluerider. "Named after me?" Echo, echo, echo..

Miranda nods. "Yes, so now you should thank me!" so there!

Jerekan blinks more. "Why would you do that? Why would I thank you?" Not rude, just.. confused.

Jerekan's eyes flash suddenly. "Ah. I see." Griiiin.

Miranda narrows her eyes. "What?"

Jerekan just grins crookedly, announcing, "You're infatuated with me." Beam.

Miranda stamps her foot. "I am NOT!"

Jerekan rolls his eyes mightily. "Why else would you name a pet after me if you didn't wish for my affection?" He smiles sweetly, pausing to idly buff at his fingernails.

Miranda narrows her eyes. "Same reason you KISSED me you wherry headed porcine!"

Jerekan rolls his eyes, announcing. "A moment of unexpected kindness. Besides, you kissed back, and I didn't even /enjoy/ it.." He beams, announcing, "I'm flattered that you're still in love with me. Honest." Smirk.

Miranda rolls those eyes of hers. "Right. Why did you kiss me again if you didn't like it? I know who's in love with who here. And I have better taste! I'm in love with KARIEN!" now why can't she make that sound convincing?

Jerekan peers at her. "Karien? Is he that steward?" Blinkblink. He grins again, announcing, "Does that brownrider know?" Smirk. "I couldn't care less,anyway." He's a bit more believable, at least.

Miranda stomps, attempting to stomp his foot. "HE'S NOT MY BROWNRIDER!"

Jerekan rolls his eyes, pointing out, "Then you're his bluerider, at least..."

Miranda goes for another stamp. "I am NOT his bluerider! I'm not ANYONE's bluerider!" oh, did she just admit she wasn't Karien's? Must have been a slip of the tongue.

Jerekan winces as her foot hits his. "You /nut/! That bloody hurt!" He shouts, irritably, rubbing at his foot. "I'll tell the Weyrleaders about you... Immature little /girl/..." Grumble.

Miranda hehs. "I'll show YOU girl, you wherryheaded herdbeast, and she goes for a great big kiss on the mouth. Mwah!

Jerekan blinks at that. He /almost/ kisses back, but pulls away rather quickly. "See? In. Love. WIth. Me." He emphasizes every syllable, smirking all self-satisfied like.

Miranda does a strange thing. She bursts into tears.

Jerekan blinks at that. "You wherrybrain. What in Faranth' s name are you sobbing about?" After a moment he rolls his eyes, snorts, and announces, "Child."

Miranda stamps on his foot hard. "That's the last time I name a firelizard after you, you rotten creep!"

Jerekan yelps, hopping to his feet. "You evil, /rotten/ female!" He shouts, all angry-like. "Besides, I never asked you to!" He snaps. Hmph. After a moment he stops hopping and wonders idly, "Why did you, anyway?"

Miranda sniffles. "Because he was cute like y...." whoops. She almost said it.

Jerekan blinks at that. "Cute?" Smiiiiiirk. That was the /wrong/ thing to say.

Miranda glares. "I didn't mean YOU. Who could think YOU'RE cute?"

We all believe her right?

Jerekan smirks more. "You, apparently." Teeheeee...

Miranda narrows her eyes. "No I don't!"

Jerekan rolls his eyes. "Sure you don't.. I /knew/ you were in love with me." Beam.

Miranda stamps. "How could I possibly be in love with YOU wherryhead?"

Jerekan shrugs. " Oh, I don't know... How could you be? Is it my stunning personality? My unimaginable good looks?"

Miranda hehs "Your incredibly big head? Your really bad attitude?"

Jerekan ignores her and continues, buffing his fingernails some more. "...My intelligence? The charm that oozes from every pore like a disease?"

Miranda's eyes get bigger and bigger at all these claims. "You have the brains of a muddle-headed tunnelsnake, you stupid wherry!"

Jerekan catches that and narrows his eyes at Miranda. "You're one to talk.. Besides, I'd rather have the brains of a tunnelsnake than have no brains at all, like you." Hmph.

Miranda hehs. "I do too have brains! Sinjon said Litreth was very smart!" Which is a.not what he said at all and b.proves nothing about her intelligence.

Jerekan's shoulders rise in an indifferent shrug. "I never said /Litreth/ wasn't.. The only strike he has against him is that he Impressed you.. And besides, Sinjon was probably just being too nice for his own good."

Miranda hehs. "Sinjon is NEVER nice, which shows what YOU know, /candidate/!"

Jerekan shrugs more. "Then I suppose he's just /really/ nasty and was lying to you.. You may think I'm mean, but at least I'm honest..." Pbbbbt.

Miranda narrows her eyes. "/If/ you were honest, you wherryhead, you'd admit you LIKED kissing me!"

Jerekan rolls his eyes. "What makes you think I enjoyed it? You obviously did. You /just/ kissed me." He reminds, smirking.

Miranda balls up a fist. "That was to prove I wasn't a child, you glow-for-brains!"

Jerekan's eyes roll. "It proved the obvious." He points out, drolly.

Miranda hehs. "It proved you were a lousy kisser is what it proved!"

Jerekan points out, "/I/ didn't kiss you, /you/ kissed me.. So, of course it would make you think I was bad." He looks completely serious as he says, "HEre, I'll show you." And reaches forward, grabs her shoulders, and smooches. Well.

Miranda's eyes nearly pop out of her head. Heyyyyyyyyyyy. She kisses him back of course, but after a while, she sees what's wrong with this picture, and stamps down on his foot. Hard.

Jerekan blinks at that, and falls on his behind, immediately rubbing at his foot. "Ow! Wherryheaded female!" He snaps . "I was only proving a point. Not like I enjoyed it or anything.. Not like /you/ did, anyway." Smirk.

Miranda hehs. "I HATED it. You are the WORST kisser in the entire weyr!"

Jerekan rolls his eyes. "Don't be ridiculous. The entire weyr wouldn't want to kiss you.. And if you hated it so much, why would you kiss back, or at all?" Smirk.

Miranda has! "JUST because YOU stink at kissing, doesn't mean people don't want to kiss me!" Follow the logic, or better, don't even try.... "And I was only showing you HOW so the next unfortunate girl you kissed wouldn't laugh at you. I'm nice like that."

Jerekan rolls his eyes. "So, I take that to mean you wouldn't be jealous? Suuure." Smirk. "BEsides, after having kissed you, I think females sound utterly repulsive. If they're all as bad as you, I think I'll start looking at males, next.. Would you mind too terribly if I spoke to that brownrider of yours?" Smirk.

Miranda narrows her eyes. "As IF! AS IF!" she aims a kick at the candidate on the ground. "AS IF...you you you.... PORCINE!"

Jerekan winces as he gets kicked in the behind. "Ow." Frown. "That hurt. I'm going to tell the Weyrwoman about your behaviour." Frown. "Little /girl/."

Miranda pokes her tongue out at him. "At least I can KISS!"

Jerekan rolls his eyes more. " Sure you can.." He rubs at his poor, sore foot. "Just keep telling yourself that, girl..." Rooooll. "I'm gonna go find the Weyrwoman and tell her how you've been treating candidates.." Pbbbt..
