"He's got a connection to them, to one of the most dangerous of them to judge by the trials I read. What if something slips while she's there? I could have given you... two names off the top of my head of riders that would have worked just as well."

And that is why Issa really doesn't have anything to worry about when talking to Jen.

I reserve my comment for roaring in R'en's face. ^_^

"What made you able to find him under all of that?"

I've wondered myself, sometimes. I love when these two get together and talk, and I get to see what they're thinking on so many issues.

I wonder if Roa knows the day Min finds out she's told ANYONE any of the dozens of things she's confided to the weyrwoman in. . .well. Let's just say I hope all these dozens of people can keep a better secret than Roa.

Doom. Lalala.

Oh, this one Min had coming.

Miniyal's doing the right thing, maybe. And she and Roa might have been able, I think, to agree on a way to do it. Even this way, possibly. But Miniyal didn't give Roa that opportunity.

In this case, regardless of past infractions on both sides - and it's ridiculous to present Miniyal as the only one repeatedly betrayed! - I think the fact that Miniyal is so lacking in maturity about her approaches and reactions is likely to affect any eventual showdown (of doom). ^_~

Roa is learning bad language from that guard she hangs around with. Can't wait to hear baby's first word. She's wrong, of course - if R'en tried to betray the people at High Reaches Weyr by leaving them to defect and give his loyalty to someone at Five Mines (as suggested in the comments that he knows a couple of people there), then he'd be breaking the loyalty that caused Ashwin to pledge to him in the first place. Of course, Roa's assumption is always that everybody will choose somebody else before her. I really like watching her with Issa.
