I'm tired of father. Must he always push me? So what if a look like a girl? Yes, that doesn't mean I have to act like one, but I don't want to act so tough either. What's the point of that? Impressing women? Impressing Searchers? I just don't understand. Besides, that's what he did. And look at him now. A bluerider, Smith Apprentice. He went around, acting like he was so good he could Impress anything. Even his own dragon is ashamed. Now mother, she's an entire different story. A Junior Weyrwoman and a Headwoman. Mother of five, loving wife to a complete moron. I love mother with everything I have. Embarassing as it was, she warned all that teased me for my female appearance. And because of her I've learned to except it. She says that looking so female, so 'beautiful' as she put it, will eventually attract women. I'll be looking for that, just to see what they'll do.
I was Searched. It was a surprising experience. I wasn't expecting it. It was odd, but here I am. A candidate at Jerdan Weyr. Mother is proud, but Father doesn't seem too happy about it. Just because I'm on the waiting list for a green's clutch. I wanted to hit him. I wanted to swear, and I wanted him to know just how I felt about all he ever said to be. I almost lost it. I was beginning to see red. But I ran off to the beach and shouted my angry at the ocean. It felt so good, I fell asleep there and woke up with sand in my mouth.
I've Impressed, at last! I have a green Erath. I was last to Impress, but I didn't care. Erath is a little bossy, but she's still sweet. Mother is proud, Caina is jealous and Father is furious. Mother came to my weyr while Erath was sleeping and tried to cut my hair. I said I could do it myself. I hugged her when she looked hurt, but I cut it myself anyway. It's going to take some getting used to, but I like it.
Erath has grown. We're taking Weyrling Classes now and already we're learning how to fly. They say that she is big enough. Father likes Erath now. He says he likes her attitude, and how she doesn't let him or anyone be a threat to me. I think he's just scared.
Erath is an adult now. We fly all the time. I love her so much. Caina has Impressed a green too. I tell her about having a dragon. She's so happy, I love her. There sure are a lot of women in my life. Too bad none of them are a wife or girlfriend. laugh
