[Hatching] A New Path Awaits Us

TW: mauling
The Theatrical Provocateur would wait no longer. Shaking and
banging like a rock in a wash basin, the egg exploded into shell
fragments, dumping a rather angry not-little dragonet onto the
sands with a roaring screech. Shaking the egg goop from his dark
hide, the dragonet stormed to greet the Candidates personally.

A brown! A large and bold brown!
With a snort, the brown stomped to the Candidates, eyes whirling
red. A few paces from them...he charged. With a bellow, he
snapped his jaws shut on Zathrian's arm, savagely tearing and
shaking his head as he mauled the Candidate viciously. Flinging
Zathrian aside like he was nothing, the brown whirled to select
his next victim...but stopped cold. A Candidate standing at the
unworthy one's side caught his attention...
The brown stalked to stand before Melora, determined to meet her
gaze. At some point, frustrated, he leapt and brought her to the
ground, forcing her to meet his gaze. That wasn't so hard, was
it? he said with a sneer to his tone. Get up, princess. Let's
get outta here before that forsking knucklehead shows up. Oh,
jeez, Aaroth's out? Forsker...
With such a show, another dragonet had Impressed. The Unexpected
Prodigy began to wobble next, with no big hurry or fanfare.

(Injury: Zathrian suffers severe muscle damage to his right
forearm. It is unclear whether it will heal enough to allow for
his complete strength to return. Permanent tremors and weakness
are left in the bite's wake.)

Candidate Anoirigan- Mentions injury, fear, Zathrian, Melora,
next egg thoughts
Noir was... shocked. Terrified, if only briefly. He watched as
the brown hatchling viciously attacked Zathrian, before bonding
with Melora. He knew he shouldn't laugh at the horrible injury
sustained, but with the lad's attitude, Noir thought it was the
fate he deserved. Though he didn't let it be seen across his
countenance, instead watching the next egg eagerly. Could this
be the one...?
Candidate Judiana- fear, mentions injury, next egg thoughts
Judiana watched in horror as the brown hatchling mauled some lad
before taking his fate into his own claws. She was secretly
grateful that the hatchling ignored her entirely, but her throat
was still tight with tears. She'd been spared a long glance
again, and again, she'd been passed by. Was this her fate? Would
she fail to Impress? What would become of her...?

Blue Astralath - Haloneth, reaction
Astralath was on his feet in a flash. He wavered, unsure of what
to do. Was he supposed to stop his son? Somehow tend the wounded
human? Do nothing? He looked to his bonded but Cora seemed to
have fallen asleep in her chair, dozing slumped over and almost
falling over. He turned to look to Haloneth for guidance.

Haurchefant of Gold Haloneth | Mauling reaction, impression
Haurchefant should have known things were going too smoothly,
should have known better than to relax, because that was when
the brown all but exploded from its egg and attacked a male
candidate entirely unprovoked. Instinct kicked in as he called
to the healers and looked to Haloneth who snarled and stamped a
foot down to settle the dragonet. It had the desired effect when
he released the candidate and leapt on another and impressed...
Haurchefant remembered seeing this female that impressed before
but could not place where.. perhaps at another hatching in
Benden.
Once it was safe, he started to say something to the healers
again to attend to the candidate when the candidate shook his
head. He was already walking towards the healer's area, the
lad's eerie calm had him slightly unnerved.. the arm was
shredded like a spotty had a go at it.
---------------------------------------------------------
Candidate Zathrian | Mauling
Zathrian was not surprised when he was attacked that no one came
to his aid and that no one here cared. Its what he expected out
of people and this only reinforced this. Looking darkly over all
of them, he shook his head at Haurchefant and walked on his own
towards the healers, his expression blank and he made not a
sound as the arm was attended to. Looking down at it, he glared.
" Take it off at the bite, it will never heal right, happened to
someone I know and there is no point to leaving it to just
fester and hang uselessly." He said matter of factly, not
letting the intense pain he was in show on the outside. He was
ready to be done with this foolishness. As soon as he was able,
he was leaving the sands and candidacy, it was not worth it to
lose further limbs over.
---------------------------------------------------------
Candidate Meteion | Mauling and reaction to it.
Meteion was startled as the dragon exploded from the egg and
charged the line and mauled another fellow. She was not aware
she screamed and felt darkness rapidly consuming her vision and
she passed out, hitting the sand with a noticeable sound,
passing out from pure terror.

Candidate Anoirigan- Interaction with Meteoin
"Meteion!" Noir gasped, feeling his heart lurch as Meteion
passed out nearby. Not thinking about anything else, he dove
down to catch her, cradling her head in his lap and brushing her
hair back. He fanned her face, attempting to help her come to.
"Come on, Meteion, wake up, your partner will be here, they need
you!"

Theon - Mauling, Panic, Zathrian and Reaction to impression
Just like he had feared, the dragonet that came from the egg was
nothing but a nightmare. Freezing on the spot, Theon could only
watch as the arm of one of his classmates was torn apart
drastically. He couldn't help but cringe at the sight, panic
rising up despite how hard he tried to force it down. The
candidate didn't even take notice of who the creature bonded to
after, too focused on the injury the thing caused.
Vaguely part of him makes a note to maybe visit at some point
hearing that Zathrian just wanted the limb off. It wasn't an
easy adjustment, he knew that well. Theon tried to put it out of
his mind for now, gaze turning to the other eggs that have yet
to hatch... Would anyone else be mauled...? He knew at least one
egg hadn't been fond of him...

The Unexpected Prodigy wasn't in a hurry to emerge, idly rocking
and twitching as the cracks widened across its shell. At last,
the egg fell to fragments, allowing a lithe and languid form to
emerge and scan the Candidates.

A blue! A blue as blue as his egg's shell!
Sighing softly, the blue looked upon the Candidates presented
with a confident gaze. Glancing to the weyrlings as they fed the
hatched dragonets, he huffed annoyance. Perhaps he didn't like
his siblings? Regardless, the blue made his selection in short
order. After looking to the debacle with poor Meiteon with an
amused chortle, he regarded the other Candidates with
disinterest before picking a young woman from the crowd to be
his bonded with a sly grin at her surprise.
Without further ado, the Lasting Legacy began to shiver with
vigor.

Candidate Meteion | Noir
Meteion awoke a short time later, her face feeling wet and she
was propped up. Looking up at Noir, she flushed slightly.
D..did I land on you? Apologies.." She said softly and gazed out
towards the sand, as the pretty blue hatched.. and impressed
without violence. She never knew babies could be so.. violent.
Bites here and there, they covered that in class.. but this
dragon nearly tore Zathrian's arm off!
" I hope Zathrian will be alright.. even if he isn't very nice..
he didn't deserve that.." She said softly, sadness in her
expression as she moved to stand up, dusting the sand off
herself and smiling at Noir.

Theon - Reacting to impression
Thankfully this impression occurred with no one getting injured,
the blue moving off to go find his bonded among the crowd that
had gathered. Perhaps he should have paid more attention, but he
wasn't really all that focused when he saw what egg was next to
hatch. Theon knew it was the one who had responded in quite the
upset manner when he touched it. Would he get attacked by this
one? After all, maybe he had offended this one somehow? The
candidate really hoped that wouldn't be the case. If he was
lucky then it'd just go pick their bonded without issue like
most of the dragonets had done...

Cora of Blue Astralath | Reaction to impression, TW: Mauling
mention, blood mention
Cora was dozing peacefully in her chair, huddled in the corner
out of sight of the thick of the action. The screams from the
candidates and the spectators woke her with a start. She jerked
upright in her chair, almost falling off the seat as she looked
around wildly.
"I wasn't asleep!" She said quickly, glancing around, and then
noticing with relief that nobody was watching her. However, her
relief turned to ice and dumped into her stomach as she saw
bright red blood spilling onto the sands. People screamed and
scattered as a large brown dragon savaged a candidate and then
turned, blood dripping from his muzzle as he sized up another
girl, before pouncing on her and pinning her to the ground.
Cora stood up, knocking her chair over and running forward,
signaling to the healers. The brown dragon stayed pinning the
girl down, Impressing upon her with a ferocity Cora had never
seen before. She slowed slightly, looking around as healers
swarmed the male candidate who had been injured. Haloneth
snarled and stamped her front feet in warning to the brown, who
seemed to calm slightly now that he had his Bonded at his
attention.
This was far beyond anything she had expected to see. She cast a
guilty look over her shoulder at Astralath, who was nuzzling
Haloneth to comfort her. Was this somehow his fault for being
the sire? And therefore mine for not stopping his chase? Cora
ran both hands through her short hair, looking over at
Haurchefant for guidance. He was directing the healers and the
candidates with aplomb, maintaining grace and order in a way she
knew she'd never have been able to manage.
As the chaos began to settle, she thought she saw Haurchefant
wince slightly and massage his temples. He was probably getting
another migraine, she thought to herself. With the attention
back on the hatching eggs as another one began to break open,
Cora decided to slip away to find T'ani and retrieve something
to ease Haurchefant's burgeoning migraine.
