Location: Barrier Lake Weyr

Notes: Mentioned: Abaroath, Iskandreth
}: Hello handsomes, :{ Quiroanth said coquettishly as she joined her Wingmates on the rim to sun. Even though she was thoroughly happy with her blue mates in Abaroath and Iskandreth, Quiroanth didn't pass up the chance to chat up the bronzes in the Wing. Well, the bronzes and the almost bronze in size brown Werreth.
}:Hello, my lovely,:{ Seneth replied. The bronze dragon shuffled over a little so that Quiroanth had more room in the sun next to him. The sun was warm today, although Seneth had the inkling that it ought to be a lot warmer. }:Come join us. We can see all of the lake from here.:{
}: Fascinating thing, the lake. I do love the boats, :{ Daith remarked. His faceted gaze rested on Quiroanth for a long moment. }: And the view of other things, :{ he added slyly.
Quiroanth arched her neck, her tone flirting. }: Seneth, dear, you were _almost_ as quick as me on that maneuver this morning. Where did you learn that move? :{
}:I have always known it,:{ the bronze declared proudly. }:I am fast on my wings, as are you. I remember...:{ he trailed off, vague memories of golden wings and sun-drenched cliffs he couldn't place flitting through his mind. Perhaps his rider would know. He decided not to bother F'lin with it. }:I remember when you caught that wherry over the feeding pens. You snapped your wings like _just_ like that when you grabbed it with your claws and bit its neck. It was very good to watch.:{
}: Did you now? :{ Quiroanth answered, sounding as though she didn't quite belief the bronze but was willing to entertain him.
}: Oh, that move! :{ Werreth piped up. }: That's a good one. There's another clip and dive maneuver that I've been practicing with some of the other greens that's good during flights. I can show you that one, Seneth. :{ The brown dragon took off, gained enough height, and promptly showed Seneth what he was talking about.
}: Show off, :{ Daith remarked teasingly.
Seneth snorted, sending motes of dust spinning into the sun. }:You need to whip your tail faster. But it was a very good dive,:{ he admitted after a moment. }:Perhaps I will use it when the next green rises.:{
Quiroanth laughed. }: You can certainly try but you'll have to be quicker than that if you think you can use that on me! :{ she flirted with Seneth. She liked her blue boys but flights were flights and sometimes it was fun to try something else.
}:I have many tricks,:{ he told her. }:I catch many greens, when my rider doesn't complain too loudly. It is very distracting when your rider wants to do hidework or talk to someone about things he thinks are important. Humans are so _needy_:{
}: Aren't they?? :{ Quiroanth immediately, though she loved her Y'rim dearly. }: Y'rim is _never_ on time to anything, even practice! It's a wonder we haven't gotten demoted to the Weyrlings' Wing again. :{
}: My rider could make that happen, :{ Daith teased.
Quiroanth laughed. }: Oh, please! It wouldn't teach him a _thing_. Trust me, I've tried. What about yours, Seneth? What else does he do that annoys you? :{
Seneth took a moment to think. }:He gets too angry. Or too sad. Humans have very strong emotions, I have found. Mostly I do not mind, but sometimes I'd rather not have to deal with them.:{
}: Oh, girl, same, :{ Quiroanth answered. }: Y'rim loves to just chat. I simply cannot get him to shut up sometimes! But I do love to do the same so I suppose it's just a taste of my own medicine. :{
}: They are curious things, our humans, but we do love them, :{ Daith added with a fond chuckle.
}: Seneth! Do you play water ball? :{ Werreth asked the bronze. }: Mine likes to play water ball. Does yours? :{
}:Oh yes. But the water here is quite cold. Or so he says.:{ Seneth paused. Perhaps he found it cold, too. }:I also like playing in the water. That is one thing we have in common.:{
}: We should form a water ball team for dragons! :{ Werreth suggested, mostly to Seneth. }: We could do three on three! Our riders can referee it. :{
Quiroanth sniffed prettily. }: I'll pass, thank you. :{
}:I would be very good at waterball,:{ Seneth said, mostly to himself. He stretched his wings. }:Perhaps you and I should play first, Werreth. When the other dragons see us, they will want to play too. Especially if you join, Quiroanth. You would look very good playing waterball.:{
}: Oh, no, I would just get dirty and I do _not_ like that, :{ Quiroanth answered. }: But, you would definitely look good playing waterball. You should organize that. I will cheer from the sides. :{ She made a lovely trilling sound of encouragement to show how good she would be at that.
Seneth arched his neck in acknowledgement. }:You find a ball, Werrenth. I will wait here with Quiroanth.:{
}: On it! :{ Werreth answered as he darted away like an eager canine.
Daith chuckled. }: I see what you did there, :{ he remarked to Seneth slyly. }: Taking out a little competition. :{
The bronze dragon narrowed his eyes in satisfaction. }:There was competition?:{
}: When it comes to a lovely lady, always. :{
