Candidate Mizao
Alyx Taxx
After their lesson the Egg Touching, Mizao was left more curious than ever. She wished they could just attend the Touching already, so she could understand what all the experienced candidates were talking about. How the eggs... talked. If someone outside the Weyr had ever suggested to her that eggs could talk, she would have smiled, nodded, and quickly vacated the vicinity before the nutter got dangerous. But here it was the general consensus. It was crazy that it wasn't crazy.
With less than two sevendays as a candidate under her belt, she felt woefully unprepared for the upcoming Hatching. Luckily, she paid attention during lessons. Aleni was clearly an experienced candidate and Mizao was determined to get to know the older girl and hopefully benefit from her experience. Luckily, she had been assigned to afternoon chores washing dishes, and Aleni and another new girl (Jaya? Joya? Something like that) were assigned the same task. It would give her a good opportunity to speak with Aleni, and perhaps this new girl could become a friend as well. She was just thankful that Akai had not been assigned the same task.
In the kitchens, she stood before a large wash basin filled with soapy water and scrubbed away at trays and cups, casting a glance over at Aleni and... she was pretty sure it was Joya? She cleared her throat lightly. Making friends was never exactly an easy thing for her. She latched onto the first thing that came to mind, fixing her dark gaze on Joia, “I'm sorry... I'm not sure if we've been properly introduced. My name is Mizao. Welcome to Mavros.” She gave a pleasant smile to the new girl, “I am new here as well. It seems we will be learning together.” Her gaze flicked to Aleni, “How long have you been a candidate?”
