R'dal was nearly dancing on the spot with excitement. F'drel had agreed to come fishing with him down at the large lake near Katila. He hadn't seen much of his newest friend since the fires had him curling up with the man after their shifts --or stealing their blanket nest if their shifts didn't align- just a quick visit here and there when he popped into Ista to see family. Now they had the whole day together!
They had planned to meet by the lake early morning since that was a good time to fish; or so R'dal had heard. He'd never gone fishing before. He had never been on the small row boat he was standing beside either. He was confident F'drel would know how to do all of that since the man seemed rather put together and intelligent. He probably should have asked. Oh well! It was just a lake, not the ocean where they could drift out to see and never be heard from again. They also both had dragons so even that wasn't likely to happen if he had chosen to fish at the Istan shoreline.
Edath was lying in the shallow water, enjoying the way it lapped at his body while he eyed his rider with trepidation. He knew R'dal could swim and was confident neither of the men would try to drown the other intentionally but the whole idea seemed like a disaster waiting to happen. Why did they need to be in such a small floating object? Why did they need a knife and hooks? He feared his carefree mate was going to end up hurt because he wasn't paying attention. At least they were enjoying a day out in the sun with swimming so the idea wasn't entirely horrible.
R'dal looked up when he heard Edath croon a greeting and saw the green pair heading down to their location. He waved from the boat he was now sitting in, large smile in place. He had been studying the oars and contemplating how hard it would be to row when Halomirth appeared but the task was forgotten as he jumped out of the boat that was safely snug on the sand and waited for F'drel to join him.
Good morning, Halomirth. You look lovely today, Edath greeted the green dragon as he sat up, not wanting to look like a lazy grouch with the way he had been lying in the water. I hope you're in the mood for entertainment today. I think we're in for a good show.
