Tarn sat on the garden, looking at the plants. he had his own little space that he had set up right away, before he had even set up his room. he had brought a small potted plant of his from home, and then he had lots of other plants growing from seed. all around him the other garden's streached. he was on his knees with a watering can in one hand.
his faithful bronze was back in the weyr, not terribly intrested in plants. he was awake, however, and making light comments and wondering what was so special that it would take this long.
why aren't you bored of them yet, Tarnmine?
~because. I like plants.~
That was true. there were only two things on all of pern he loved: Renth and plants. that was it. He didn't even love himself as much as he loved his plants. Tarn was bitter at the wrold. he was a question to everyone, and he had just as many questions for the world as it had for him. Why did some live, and some die? what made people grow cold, as he had? why was fate toying eith him? those were just a few. there were no answers.

"Hey..." A weyrling wander up to Tarn, "I haven't seen you here, I'm Taylun." She said sticking out her hand. her gray eyes were like a calm ocean, the reveled nothing. She squated down beside him, watching him care for the plants.

"uh...huh...name's Tarn." He said cooly. he continued working, weeding his plants dillegently. great. now he was trapped in a conversation. he couldn't leave untill his word was done....and so he was vulnerable. how delightful!
His mood didn't show on his face. it was as if she wasn't even there. most likely, she was going to keep talking to him, no matter what he did, untill he left. he hated lose-lose situations. he sighed audibly then, trying to keep his disgust at the prospect of a conversation out of his face.

Taylun smiled, "Can I help you with that?" She guesterd towards the weeds he was pulling, motioning that she would help.

He looked at her questioningly. He rarely trusted anyone with anything, much less something he cared about as much as his plants. if he said no, maybe she would go away. but he wouldn't mind the help.
he wondered at why someone else would want to help him. No one had ever helped him before. he had always been solitary, pushed and pulled to the ends of society, treated little better than a drudge. and now a complete stranger wanted to help him? why?
"who do you want to?" He asked,

"What?" She was perplexed by his question, "Who do you want to, what?" Her gaze was still the calm gray and her face was still, no emotion to be seen. But her voice was a dead give away, she had been a Harper before but she had forgot most of her lesson for lack of instrument; her voice was all she had.

"help. why would you want to help?" he said, clarifying. he had never really had a craft; he had just been without worrying about it. he had mostly worked in the gardens when he could, and simply did what needed doing the rest.

|OoC: ^ ^ Works for me!|
"Why would I like to help?Because I like plants too and it just looked like you could use some help." She said simply.

"...fine." He said, still not believing she didn't have some alterior motive behind her actions.

Taylun bent to help him, smooth and unscared hands grasping the weeds firmly...

"thanks..I don't say that often, so don't expect to hear it again." he said strongly. his own hands were rough and calloused, and every muscle in his body was tight and tense, as if her were about to bolt.

Taylun nodded, since smiling was not something she did often,"You're welcome," she said softly.
