And again, no luck. The first attempt had gone well enough, too. Maybe he should try something else for now. Still...

"One more time, Adamanth, then we can always come back to this."

Rider & Dragon - O'thor and Adamanth
Attempting to - Splint
List passed sections here -

Apparently, O'thor was just dismal at first aid. He stared at his first attempt at splinting, analyzing what he had done and trying to determine where he had gone wrong. It had seemed a simple enough before he had started it. Of course, Adamanth's constant movement wasn't helping matters any. If he hadn't been sure of the opposite, he would have thought the Silver was dying.

He gave Adamanth a steady, dry look, and the Silver stared right back, eyes calmly whirling green at his rider.

You were the one who wanted me to flail about, mine. We were doing fine before that.

Rider & Dragon - O'thor and Adamanth
Attempting to - Bandaging
List passed sections here -

Sure enough, with only one try O'thor showed that he was still a proficient hand at bandaging. There were a few places that could use improvement, but that would only come with practice. O'thor began unwinding the bandage for a second attempt. Adamanth didn't understand why his rider thought he needed to redo something that was already good, but left him to it. This lesson was turning out to be easy, if boring.

Just one more try for this, unless I somehow manage to do worse the second time than the first, O'thor promised as he held Adamanth's leg steady and carefully began rewinding bandage around the limb.

Mercy had noticed O'thor and his silvers arrival while she was explaining things but continued on anyways, when he came up and apologized for being late she'd merely nodded and sent him on his way again. Late once she could forgive..if they were late a second time then she would have to have a bit of a chat with him about keeping up with schedules, how was he going to fly in a wing if he couldn't keep up with practices? But today might have just been a fluke and so she was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.

As the students started to practice Mercy moved among them, Z'en's attempt at stitching earned a nod of approval, there was room for improvement of course but it was far from a bad try. Enyo too seemed to be giving stitching a try and did well - if this kept up then they'd have plenty of people capable of helping the next time thread fell and there were wounded to tend too and she smiled at the girl encouragingly.

C'irci was the first to try a splint and Mercy smiled slightly at the blues somewhat distracted looking wiggling "Good job" She told both the blue and his before moving on.

O'thor seemed to be trying to stitching and she watched for a few moments to see if he'd caught all of her instructions upon arrival - when he seemed to be doing fine she went to check on other's progress. A glance back showed C'iri stitching away like an expert but given how she'd had plenty of practice after the first thread fall Mercy wasn't surprised by this at all.

A look back to Enyo proved that she was flying through the course as well, Mercy caught sight of her splint moments before she took it off and it looked quite passable. Pausing she watched as she wound a bandage around her green's leg. It was excellent work and she called out the appropriate kudos "Excellent Enyo!"

Turing back she noted a good bit of thrashing from the silver and started over in that direction to see if O'thor had somehow managed to accidentally hurt the dragon - though Aerith who was watching for such things hadn't called out 'he is fine' the white stated after noticing it's riders thoughts 'merely taking your instructions to heart'

'Good' Mercy responded to the white pausing to watch from a little way's off as O'thor undid his rather dismal stitches to try again..and again..and again. Apparently he just didn't have a stitching hand - though he had seemed to be doing fine before his silver had started moving about so much - ah well it was a learning experience. And at least he seemed to learn from his mistakes because his second attempt at splinting showed a vast improvement and he seemed to be an old hand at bandaging.

So, she thought to herself with a bit of an inner chuckle, she would just have to make sure he didn't try to stitch up anyone who was thrashing about to much and things would be fine. "Your doing fine" She encouraged O'thor "Stitching someone whose moving about takes a good bit of practice"

This time Z'en did a better job, it didn't fall off when Kataith stood up though he could see room for improvement. Smiling he patted Kataith "shall we try again my love?" he asked, receiving a rumble of comfort. "alright, settle back down silly" he said, removing the bandage and having another go. Even if it wasn't as good as the first time, at least he was practising.

C'rci & Bolth -

Mine the others are a good ways ahead of us in their work. Bolth noted with whirling eyes glancing up at his rider with a worried look. She was the competitive sort, though Bolth had yet to understand his rider's need to strive for perfection he was certainly more then happy to help her attain it.

Better to take our time and do the job right then rush and have to do it twice or worse risk injuring the patient. Patience is a virtue dear heart. C'rci replied offhandedly as she carefully cleaned the spot she intended to bandage then slathered it with numbweed undoing a roll of bandages to begin neatly binding her blue partners side and tending to his mock injury. Twitching and rolling Bolth played the injured patient trilling up at Fasha when the crimson confused chittered down at him scoldingly unable to understand this strange act.

That feels funny Mine. Bolth chittered twitching his wings and lifting his head to nuzzle his rider's shoulder making her grin and reach out to ruffle his head frill.

I've put numbweed on you before Bolth. She replied enjoying the flashes and images filtering through her mind from her companion as he glanced about ever the social butterfly.

Never this much Mine. Just when I scuff up my head or nick myself. Bolth corrected her eyeing the neat tight bandages on his side.

True. I'll wipe it off when I remove the bandages so you'll get feeling back soon. C'rci answered reaching one hand up to scratch Fasha's eyeridges assuring the little crimson that no Bolth was not actually hurt.

Lifting his head while his worked Bolth eyed Katiath trilling cheerfully at her. Hello Katiath friend. How is you and yours this fine day? This 'acting' thing is fun is it not?

O'thor looked up, startled, then smiled. "Thank you, Weyrlingmaster."

He refocused on the stitching materials in his hand and laid them against Adamanth. He shot the Silver a look, but all he got in reply with Adamanth's steady stare.

No thrashing.

Adamanth let his head fall back so he could peruse his other clutchmates, feeling bored. Perhaps some socializing would do him good. He wiggled slightly as O'thor began his stitching. I will not thrash. How is Yours doing at her tasks, Bolth? He rolled further to get a better look at Bolth and his rider.

At first, the stitching seemed to be going well. The first rows were even, even with Adamanth wriggling a bit. And then he turned over and O'thor had to drop the needle to keep from stabbing him. He shot Adamanth a nasty look, that the Silver either ignored or missed (probably the former), and then sighed under his breath and continued his stitches. Which came out almost as atrociously as before. He shook his head and risked a peek up at the other Weyrlings to see how well they had done with their stitches.
