STORMSINGERS. Preview Test!

[Lan]

In preparation for their graduation test, the Stormsingers are being sent out to shadow wings on sweep. Three of the wingseconds of Dalibor will each take a third of the Stormsingers on a sweep to show them the ropes and teach them how to be men proper wingriders. The weyrlings are being prompted by A'bar to treat this as a sort of first half of their test. They will learn how to work as a group, how to take orders from different personalities, and will become accustomed to some of the responsibilities they will have in being a rider. As for the tests/lessons themselves, that is up to the wingseconds in question. I personally think it'd be hilarious to have a dragon-on-dragon flag football match, but I'd love to hear the ideas that you all come up with! Also, wingseconds have no compulsions to plot with each other and are free to put together their own, separate lessons.

FEEL FREE TO PLOT SHENANIGANS HERE. Also, let us know what's been up with your weyrlings and how they've been doing in lessons!

WHY HAS NO ONE RESPONDED FIRST FINE I WILL.

Elianne's performance in lessons has varied depending on how the lesson has been presented - if she sees it as a challenge, then she is going to win it like no one else's business, but dry recitation of fact will make her mind wander at times (although a desire to keep Elidora from fussing keeps her largely in line). She adores stuntflying with Maeradith and they work well together.

For the lesson/tests: she doesn't act as crisply respectful of authority as might be desired, but she'll do teamwork, especially if she likes her team. Elidora and M'iles are probably her favorite people out of her class so if they're assigned to perform something together, I predict that they'll rock it.

Elidora is easygoing as ever, Macchith has been a sing-song from the sidelines encouraging her classmates. They tend to come in decent place during their lessons, not superior, because Macchith is spending her time telling everyone else to be better, but not dead last, because Macchith has to be good herself sometimes.

If it involves a test of their closeness as dragon and ride, they excel with flying colours without even trying, they are completely enmeshed as rider and dragon, and Dora has become rather brave with Macchith at her back, and in her mind. Neither of them pursues any sort of leadership, they prefer to follow while encouraging (and doting on) the leadership.

Dora fusses over Elly even when Elly is being good, but that's okay because Macchith fusses over Maery just as much. The fact that Macchith is paired with Maery AND Taceuth just means she is going to be challenging them both to rise above and grasp at their greatness, hopefully the boys won't let it go to their heads more than usual during graduation tests.

Already!?

Tr’ayne has improved greatly as a decent human being with Praerruth in his corner. He is still fat and insecure, but he is less likely to lash out at his fellows and doesn’t keep to himself as much. He continues to complain over almost every task he is charged with, but it seems like more of a habit than a real complaint. Though he won’t admit it, he is coming to love life at Dalibor because it seems like he actually belongs there.

As for lessons, Praerruth would have excelled and dragged Tr’ayne along with him. I see Praerruth as emerging as a key leader of the little group (a big fish in a small pond, if you will) but if there was a ranker who asserted himself, Praerruth would dutifully follow. He is devoted to his clutchsiblings and would have made an effort to know them all well. Tr’ayne’s knowledge coupled with Praerruth’s success in lessons would have puffed him up and made him obnoxious and unbearable to the others. Any acquired swagger, however, would be a result of happiness hidden deep down. He secretly hopes that some of them will be able to get past his repulsive exterior. Praerruth is as active as ever in trying to find His new friends.

Hey Stormsingers, since Lan is going to be busy for a little while and graduation is going to be pushed back, why don't we get some more play time in? Anyone interested in threading with me/ Tr'ayne & Praerruth? One on one or group fun is fine with me! Also, Polyth is now up for adoption. Help him find a home!
