Baths

The steamy fog of the baths could be an entirely different world, transitioning from the well-lit brilliance of the inner caverns: a different world entirely, one wrought in dreams and humid fog. Steam lifts from hot waters, obscuring those who bathe within, drenching any who dare enter. Well-maintained, well-stocked, the baths offer pre-netted portions of soapsand in various scents, fluffy towels in orderly rows, and five separate spring-fed pools, all of differing temperature: from scorching hot to soothing chill.


After a rousing class on how to dodge punches, something that F'kan is getting better at slowly, the brownrider is headed for the baths for a much needed soak. Talking amiably with his Wingsecond as they enter the Baths, the blond haired man has a smirk on his face, and curiosity in his tone, "Ok, so how exactly was I right about that blond again?" the blond haired man is asking as he starts to strip down as soon as they are through the threshold.

Th'res shrugs as they enter the bath "She was totally staring at me, but her name is Alyna. And frankly you two should hook up when your done being chaste that is." walking over he sits down to start taking off his boots. "I bet she could teach you a thing or two.." is his verbal jab at the brown rider.

"Any idea on when those particular restrictions might be lifted?" F'kan asks hopefully with a sigh before he scoffs loudy, "Mate, it wasn't me she was staring at. Why aren't you all over that?" the brownrider's voice is muffled briefly as he slips his shirt over his head and then puts it down on a nearby stool before kicking off his boots. "And why could she teach me a thing or two? Oh…is she older?" The brownrider only got a glance at the woman in a very big crowd.

Th'res nods "yup she is. But she is really nice too." He shrugs when asked why he isn't chasing her saying "She seems more like she could use a friend, bed mates she has but not real friends." He gives F'kan a look and then grins evily "you know we could ask Amani when you are free to be a man again. Should we do that now?"

F'kan holds up his hands with an chuckle, "No, that's fine, I'm sure they will let me know soon enough." They being the powers that be. He continues to strip out of the rest of his clothes, pulling a towel around his midsection as he waits for Th'res. He crosses his arms over his chest a thoughtful look on his face. "She's new here. How many people could she have gotten around to yet? And the way she was looking at you, that was a definite 'she wants to be more than friends' look." Shaking his head, F'kan sighs suddenly, "Just maybe let her know that you are only interested in being her friend. Cause that woman looked ready to pounce you in front of all those people." Ok, he may be exagerating just a tad…

Th'res blushes as he said "she.. knows, and your not tooo far off." He gets up and wraps a towel around himself too, because hey you never know who is looking. He quickly move towards the baths though adding "And just by looking at her how many riders do you know that wouldn't want to get to know her?" He slowly enters the hot water and sighs, he is bruised on his sides and back from the stunt on the ship, as well as fresh ones forming from the training session.

"Wow, you got beat up." F'kan says utterly tactlessly as he sees the wingsecond's bruises. Then he too makes for the baths, discarding the towel as he slips into the water with a long sigh. Then he picks up on something the bluerider said, "Well… you apparently. Although you think she's attractive…but don't want to be more than friends." Now the wheels are turning and the brownrider just has to ask. "Are you into guys?" Cause F'kan is blunt like that, there's no judgement or anything in his tone.

Th'res just can't help it, as he waits for F'kan to ease into the water and eyes him like he does women "I don't know, why? trying to get around your exile?" Good thing it is warm in here because he is red faced even when trying to tease people. He sinks a little lower into the water and sighs saying "I don't know what I am in to ok.." there he admits it..

F'kan chuckles easily at Th'res' teasing and holds up his hands, "Nah man, I'm strictly for the ladies." He relaxes against the edge of the baths, closing his eyes briefly. "It's fine if you don't know what you are into. Just have some fun figuring it out." He says easily with another laugh. "Although you really need to find people to figure things out with for that to work.." he teases right back.

Th'res shakes his head soaking up the heat "What is everyone's fascination with my sexual life? I mean D'ex I get, he thinks everyone should be doing it all the time." He looks over at F'kan and asks "Or is it because you can't do it so you are trying to live through me? Because that totally isn't going to end well for you man."

"Pretty much man. You're one of the only people who actually seems to like talking to me anymore." F'kan says with a sigh and a furrow of his brow as he looks over at Th'res. "And I'm not trying to live through you, I'm trying to help you." Then he looks down and trails one hand idly through the water. "Cause you're my friend, you've really stuck by a fuck up like me and I want you to be happy." And that was said in a fast, low voice which he quickly covers with a cough. "But anyway, it's totally up to you mate, it's your sex life. Alhough, that Alyna man, aren't you even a little bit curious? Older woman are awesome, they know things." And here the brownrider will nod sagely.

"They will come around, you just got to show people you are changing." Th'res says as he stretches out "I mean you really were and ass.. But you have come a long ways man." He closes his eyes adding "and worse case you fuck up again, and I get introuble to. so no pressure."

F'kan looks like he is going to sink in for a long soak, eyes closing.. but just as soon they are open again and he tilts his head to one side to look at the other man, "Wait a second? If I fuck up again, that's gonna come back at you?" the brownrider looks kind of worried at this prospect.

Th'res shrugs "well I am kinda your supervisor, I mean what do you think happened to your Windleader and Second when you got caught the first time? It wasn't like they didn't get there rear ends bitten off too." He opens one eye and looks at the rider to see if it is sinking in "Why do you think they were so pissed when you got your butt kicked? We all depend on each other, there is no one man winning it all. I mean we are called a wing for a reason, we are part of a whole."

The gears are really working behind F'kan's pretty blue eyes as he carefully considers the bluerider's words for a long moment before he just kind of chuckles. "I don't even know what to say. I'm really a self-centered asshole. I mean, I did my job, but I was more interested in what the rider knot did for my chances with the ladies. Fucking Faranth." And with that, he scrubs his hands over his face with a groan.

Th'res looks like the feline who ate the wherry as he gets up and starts to scrub his chest and arms "But the fact you realize you are means you can change my friend." Because that is what the brown rider has become, with out knowing or prompting, Th'res has actually grown attached to this wayward rider.

F'kan lowers his hands into the water with a splash as he stares at the ceiling for a moment. "I don't know man, I kept thinking I'd changed with my second weyrlinghood, and then I just kept doing stupid shit when restrictions were finally lifted." He shakes his head slowly from side to side and swallows hard before he speaks again, voice actually carrying a hint of apprehension, "What if I do that again this time? I don't want to, but then I didn't really want to slap a seventeen turn old and I did that shit." Another low groan.

Th'res sighs and walks over to sit down next to F'kan puting his arm over the riders shoulders giving him a bro hug "Well this time you aren't on your own. Last time you had no friends really, no on in your corner. But you do now."

F'kan looks at Th'res with the biggest puppy dog eyes ever, but this isn't an act, they are sincere. "Mate, you have no idea how much that means to me. I've never really had anyone in my corner before." And then he gives the bluerider a warm smile. "But I'm still not gonna let you practice on me." he says, accompanied by a teasing chuckle.

Th'res grins and shakes his head before he pushes F'kan under the water saying "How about we practice water breathing…" but he lets go quickly and moves over to get more soap sand to finish cleaning himself.

F'kan is totally taken unawares but is laughing easily when he comes back up sputtering. "Hey now! I know I'm cute. And thanks, I needed to wet my hair anyway." Moving to the edge, he picks up the soap sand and gets to work on his own bathing. But he feels lighter somehow as if something clicked inside that pretty blond head of his and his perspective is shifted just slightly in the knowledge that the bluerider is there for him. It's a new and strange feeling, but he kinda likes it.

Th'res rinses off and heads for the towels drying off and covering himself he says moving to his clothes "Just don't go and getting a head of yourself. You know you got a lot of apologies to make here at the Weyr." He stops a moment as an idea hits him saying "Maybe you should make a list of people who might of been hurt or offended by your actions. Not to rub it in mind you but so maybe we can see just how much repairing of bridges we have to do." Once he is finished dressing he will leave the brown rider with his thoughts adding "But don't worry we will make it right together, and then maybe just maybe, I will teach you how to win at poker." he gives the man a wink and heads out whistling as he goes.
