"Oh, that's right! I wasn't thinking about that! Maybe we will find a clutch. Wouldn't that be something?" she asked, just before Kalya and N'tren both were drenched in another splash. She was glad she had missed getting hit by that. She was water-logged enough from her own dragon.
You can get other clothes, mine. I don't mind sitting here in the sun for a while longer. Trith said publicly, as Remia's mind drifted along Kalya's suggestion. She shifted to allow Tarlith to join them, and closed the wings she had had outstretched.
"That's not a bad idea. And I have a blanket in my room we can use to sit on the beach if we get tired. Dragon's might like hot sand, but I don't want to feel like I'm being pit-cooked," Remia laughed.

"Well then I'll be right back, I will take the oils back too as we probably don't want to lug them the whole way there and back." Picking up the dripping clothing she gathered everything back up in a basket and made her way over to the weyrs. She would only be gone a short moment but two of her flits decided they would come along too leaving the bronze to settle on N'tren's head. With a chirp he clawed his way down to a more comfortable spot on the boys shoulder and then promptly churped at him as if trying to hold a conversation about the weather. Nicker was happy to find someone who didn't shoe him away as soon as he settled down.
Tarlith streached out his neck in the sun and, if he had the ability to purr like a feline, he probably would have. A contented snort came out of his nose as his eyes whirled a calm pale blue that almost looked crystaline against his deeper blue skin. She is more than welcome to take her time this sun feels nice against my wings

"Sounds good to me! We can let our beasties dry up and I got a small jar of oil I can grab from my bunk. I am sure I can also con Cidrey into letting me have some meatrolls, fresh bread and other goodies for our lunch!"
N'tren was excited now! He was going to go to the inner coast and hang out with some good friends. Laughing as one of the flits settled for his shoulder and began to talk with him, N'tren gave a strong impression of friendship and happiness and food. "I think I am going to go change real fast, Remia. Meet back here in half a candle mark or so? Tarlith can you let Kayla know when to meet back here?"
Datiath nodded at Tarlith as rumbled happily. I wish the sun was always around!

Trith's only reply to the other two dragons was a contented rumble as she half dozed in the sun, Okaiuli curled up on her head. He made his own contented chirp.
Remia smiled at the excitement of the other two, feeling her own grow. This woud be a new experience!
She ran quickly to her room, changing out of her clothes and into something dry. She gathered up the blanket, and then tilted her head thoughtfully. Was there anything else? She couldn't think of anything.
She scooted back down to the werybowl, looking around to see if she'd beaten the others back, or if they were waiting on her.

Tarlith was partially dozing when Kalya came down. it had taken her longer as she had a weyr that was higher up as her dragon could fly. It was all well and good except her dragon was taking a nap so she had to go up the stairs. Panting a little she was lugging what looked like a heavy sack with two straps wrapped over each shoulder. It had many pockets and each seemed to be bulging with something. "I figured I'd bring my herb-pack with us. Not just for herbs," She added quickly, "I went around the back way and snagged some food to take with us." Grinning at little at her forethought she showed them the few meat rolls and other goodies that were good cold or hot. "Figured we might get a little hungry while we're out there."

N'tren showed his pack to the others as he raced up. Grinning at the both of them, he had already began to forget the unpleasantness of earlier in the day. He had some small jars and food as well. There was also a small jar of numbweed.
"In case we get sun burned," he pointed out. "Looks like we are ready. I am sorry to make you walk Kayla. But soon all three of us will be flying."
Let's hurry up and go, Datiath grumbled as he stood up slowly.

Trith sighed, loathe to leave the comfortable sun. But she got up, flipping her wings all the way closed as she did so, and then made a pleased noise. If we are quick, we will soon be sunning on the sand, she told Datiath.
Remia smiled at N'tren. "What a great idea! I knew I was forgetting about something up there." She slung a small bag to her shoulder and draped the blanket over her arm.
"Is everyone set? Let's go!" she cried happily, an arm swung over her head in a 'move forward' gesture. She fell into step once everyone else began to move.

"I don't mind the walk, it's be good to get some excersize." Slinging her bag upon her back the bluerider gaver her dragon an affectionate thump to wake him up.
I am awake you know... came the planative reply. Streaching out his wings Tarlith rose and moved over to where Datiath and Trith stood waiting.
Could have fooled me. Kalya grinned towards her weyrmate as she ran up to join the other two. She hadn't been to the beaches in quite a while, she spent most of her time in-land where the herbs could be found. Kalya was curious to see how much the area had changed, knowing the beaches where suceptable to the whims of the tides.

N'tren began walking with Datiath trodding behind him. It was near midday now and with the way everyone was walking, they could reach the inner shore by early afternoon. It was a good thing that he was an early riser. He grinned at the praise given to him by Remia and nodded at Kalya.
"I enjoy walking... It gives you a chance to see details that you wouldnt be able to see on dragon back."
Datiath kept his pace with Tarlith and Trith. He was taking his time and investigating different items on the pathway and checking the forest. His curiousity had grown just like he had...
How curious that some plants are spikey and some are smooth. I wonder why that it?

Remia nodded her agreement with N'tren. "I like to hear birdsong and hear the rustle of leaves. The one time I was a dragonback, all I could hear was the wind rushing past my ears," she said, as she was off on the side of the path picking a few wildflowers with which to decorate her hair.
Trith looked at the flowers her rider had, and asked, Why do you put them in your hair, mine?
"Because they look and smell nice, dear one," Remia said, and held a flower out to Trith, who obligingly sniffed it, then made a pleased noise.
It smells good, she said.
Remia smiled, then her eyes lit up. "I know!" she said, "I'll make a wreath for you. I think I'll make it from grasses... and put a few flowers in it. I can make it as we walk."
She stopped by the side of the path momentarily, plucking several of the tall grasses and holding them in one hand while she wove them together in to a simple braid. Trith watched with interest over her rider's shoulder.

It was nice to walk for once instead of watch everything from higher up. Kalya wandered behind her eye catching the plants and herbs that surrounded them. A large leafy plant struck her attention and the blue rider stopped for a moment and gently pulled off a few leaves. Burdock, that would come in handy later. Carefully rolling them up she pulled on one of her many pouches in her backpack and placed them safely inside.
Remia's braiding had caught Tarl's attention and he watched as she skillfully made a long chain. Poking his head at Kalya he made a dragonic snort. You can make wreath? he added with a planative voice.
Chuckling Kalya followed suit and pulled out a few long grasses. Trotting a little faster over to Remia she grinned "It seems Tarlith doesn't want to be left out, Can you show mw how you weave those into something so long?" Turning back towards N'tren she added with a laugh, "And I suppose Datiath might want one too? Or should I make one for you, N'tren?"

Remia nodded, and held up what she was doing so Kalya and N'tren could see.
"It's just a simple braid, but you have to add in the next peice of grass before the first one ends. A couple of twists and it's held in tight. See? It's what we do when we're weaving and a thread breaks or we run out and have to start a new skein," she said, and demonstrated with the piece of grass that was currently running out.
It looked a bit tricky to do without a table to set it on, but she used the flat of her stomach as something to brace the ends against.
"And then I'm just going to poke a few flowers in between... I wonder what color I should use?" she asked, and paused to look around.
Trith piped up, saying, I like those purple ones, they smell good.
"The ones with the yellow things inside? Okay, then, the purple ones it is!" Remia laughed with a doting look on the half-grown green.

((had a brain fart...))
Datiath looked at Trith and Tarlith getting wreaths and he crooned pleadingly with N'tren. Butting his rider's side, he said most plainly. I want a wreath with blue flowers.
Laughing, N'tren watched at Remia made the wreath. It looked simple enough, like the ones his sisters would make. Catching Kayla's question, he shook his head. "Oh no. I think I can handle it. And Poor Dattie is feeling left out."
Looking around, N'tren noticed some blue and green flowers growing off to the side on some vines. Stopping and heading off the path a little, he waved to the others. "This should only take a moment."

(( Sorry! I've not checked any of my guilds in forever, I feel so guilty. If either of you still want to play this, I do, too! ))
Remia laughed at Datiath's pleading, and waved N'tren off to the flower patch. "Not a problem at all! If he wants flowers, then flowers he shall have!"
She grabbed a few of the purple flowers, and tucked them inside the braid of grasses, then inspected her work before holding it up to her green.
It looks pretty, and it smells very good. Trith proclaimed, and lowered her head with a pleased rumble so Remia could slip it on her.
"Lovely!" was the rider's exclamation, "You, Datiath and Tarlith will be the talk of the Weyr! We'll start a new fashion, don't you think?" she asked, looking around at the dragons and riders assembled.
