((I just think it'll be durn cute if this little guy tries to fly Romana.))

Velvet, cleverest flit on all of Pern, was visiting his cache of meatrolls. Much to the dismay of Headwoman Gisella and all of the kitchen staff, the small raider had been a highly successful robber, stealing maybe one or two meatrolls or fishrolls a day. It wasn't much in the long run, but it was the principle of the thing. Now, like a dragon of lore crouched over glimmering treasure, the blue hunkers over his stash, chirring lovingly and nosing the meatrolls around, for all the world like a queen dragon tending her clutch.

When he hears Romana and the bugling of other flits, he flares his wings and covers the knothole in the tree where he's hiding his stash, hissing and chattering in warning. But then the nature of the matter becomes clear to him as Romana streaks over his tree followed by her lovesick suitors. Covering his prizes hurriedly with leaves, he leaps off the branch and soars after the other two flits in pursuit of the green. His own little love song is melodious and drifting, if it is a bit lacking in forceful male power. He's just larking along, his small stature allowing for some truly spectacular acrobatics as rolls and cavorts through the air after Romana.
