No! Braidie! You go over _there_! Kalionth screeched over the noise as the smaller dragoness tried to inch forward. Get in your slot!

"What's she trying to do?" Kismi asked as she studied the amber's efforts. "A spiral?" Alianora nodded.

"Close enough. It's a series of rings, see?" Alianora pointed out at the sketchy circles that Kalionth was nudging into place. "She thinks it'll make things more organized and she gets to shout a lot." Kismi nodded, and frowned.

"I s'pose this means you'll want me to draw it up," she said with a sigh, and Alianora gave a smirk.

"Of course. You're the one who thought up this dratted thing.. and some of the females have more than one clutch, remember, Kis'. So I'm _sure_ Kally will want those included." The Archiver shook her head.

"I think I'll round up any other volunteers first. And I am getting a team for the Hatching Day, correct?" Kismi raised an eyebrow. "If Gull and V'nal are getting teams for Candidates and Weyrlings, I want a team of Archivers." Alianora spluttered.

"Kis', can't you even comprehend how many Candidates are coming? And there's a minimum of eighty-two eggs; Gull can't train all those by herself!"

"And I can't write it up by myself," Kismi shot back.

"Calliste's helping, and so's Okkiho. Isn't that enough?" Kismi shook her head, and Alianora sighed.

"Fine. Grab Lelonna and Luigan. They've both had the training. If you need any one else, try asking someone like Gardava or Kerux.. those are the only ones I trust. Anyway, most people are busy with food, Kis'. I don't think they're very concerned about the record." With a sniff, Kismi said her good-byes.

"I'm going to go start on your blasted chart. Have someone send me a message when they're done laying." Alianora gave her a cheerful wave, and returned to leaning on the railing of the Stands.

"Have fun, Kismi!"
