Title Odd One Out V (final?) Rating: G Length: 192 words Competitor: Buri Round/Fight: 2/D Summary: Part V (maybe the final part) of a Kel-has-joined-the-Riders series of AU oneshots. *** When one of the Riders out of Group Askew puts in his resignation, leaving to marry and take up a position teaching combat, Buri considers her options to fill his spot. Larse is happy with his command of the Seventh, and she needs him where he is. For all his sometimes-childish behavior and his silly streak, Evin has a talent for getting things done. There are a few veteran Riders she ought to consider for the spot, and she knows she should, but she keeps thinking of young Keladry of Mindelan, who is now second in command of the Twelfth, and working her way up to command, or so it appears. Kel’s cool head and sensibilities are just what Askew needs, where they often ride closest to the monarchs, and of course, find themselves mired in trouble more often than not. The young woman can think on her feet, and can deal with people as easily as she can give orders. Before she can overthink it, Buri writes a request to the Commander of the Twelfth, and tells herself that it is not because she wants to see the woman more often.

Cute! Aw, Buri, just tell yourself there's no ulterior motive...
