Some people were born to be great and then there were people like her. The blonde was not offended by that though perhaps her mother, sister and brother would be. She felt that now since her beauty had been tarnished by the scarring on her face and her once graceful walk was more staggered from her leg injury that she was free. Larissa knew this was her moment. She could choose where to go from here. When people thought back on their lives they remembered these moments. The ones that changed their future in ways that they previously could never imagine.
She could stay at the Weyr, she could leave. Perhaps she would work outside with the runners and herdbeasts or maybe she could try her hand at cooking. Already she had proven her worth as a laundress and on top of that her mother could get her almost any job in the Weyr. Larissa who had never thought much about her future and certainly was not ambitious did not want her mother's help.
If she was going to do anything in this life she was going to do what made her happy, not what would be most suitable. Instead of actively looking for a position in the Weyr she was trying to think of things she could do other than what was under her mother's control. While she was thinking her brown firelizard, Cymmi flew onto her shoulder. She had sent him to her room to bring her a shaw, which she had left there. Her had been fairly easy to train for a firelizard. Larissa was proud that though she had spent many months undergoing physical therapy she had successfully made her firelizard obedient and able to do something for the Weyr.
No one would compliment her on an achievement that was not understood. There were only three other people in the Weyr who had firelizards, Weyrwoman Jenafa, Her mother and her mother's assistant. Maybe if the Weyr had more...she paused mid thought. Cymmi had dropped the shaw in her lap and was staring at her. A flash of images which were often to fast came to her head.
"Oh Cymmi don't worry. I'll get you something from the kitchen soon. I doubt you are anywhere near as hungry as you think you are." She smiled, petting the brown on the head and scratching above his eyes like he wanted. The firelizard did not understand what she had said but he understood from her actions that he would be fed but not now. "Its a good thing I'm here to keep you from getting fat."
