Scrambling to the roof of the small building soaking wet Dras' eyes were wide and near panicked. His claws dug into the material pulling himself up and onto safe ground. Once he had his footing he shook attempting to be rid of the water that remained on his scales and fur. He walked carefully over to a spot of sun to warm up, flicking his feet at each step. His tail flicked in an agitated manner and his wings were spread to catch as much warmth as possible. He lay down with a huff and shut his eyes.
He heard a soft flutter of feathers and soft padding towards him.
"You did need it."
Dras grunted at the other dragon, without opening his eyes he knew it was Aelle, "Did not."
He listened as she sat down in the same sunspot, none-too-gently shoving him out of the way. She settle down and set to gently preening her feathered wings, "You were covered in mud, fruit pieces, six types of foliage and who knows what else."
"And I was fine with that." He turned his head from her and resettled attempting to cut off further conversation.
"The rest of the world wasn't." She continued regardless. "It isn't going to kill you, being clean I mean."
"Says you."
"Yes, says me," she nipped at him and resumed sunning.

Valeo fluttered over, to land on a warm, sunny spot not too far away where he could watch people walking through the streets. He couldn't help but envy the other dragon, he liked it when his wizard gave him baths. But lately the young bond had been so preoccupied with magic and keeping his roommate from blowing up things, he had just told the dragon that he was clean enough and didn't need a bath.
The fairy-like dragon huffed forlornly and spread himself out. He would have gotten in trouble trying to operate the taps himself, and trying to bathe in streams or puddles was just unpleasant. He wanted warm water, and fragrant soap, and his wizard's soft fingers rubbing his back...

Aelle curled her nose, "It won't kill you."
"No?" He then raised his head and looked at her, a loud yowling was heard from inside the shop where their upright lived and worked. "Then what was that?"
Even Aelle's face looked curious as she stood and carefully walked over to the edge of the roof. She poked her head down and attempted to see inside.
"The farm masters cat," she snorted, "must have found a skunk again."
Dras' head lifted and smiled a mischievous grin. "The same cat that chases us? And the other dragons?"
"Yes..." Aelle answered slowly looking back to him. She noticed another dragon on another roof a few houses over. "Why?"
"Oh no reason..." Stretching he stood and flapped his wings. "I figure it's time for a little bit of fun, is all."
"Don't you think that cat's had enough? Finishing the bath that you should have had?"
"Not near enough as far as I'm concerned." He turned seeing Valeo. "Hey there! Want to join in?" he asked grinning, something, that anyone who knew the dragon, was out of character.
