“That would make fishing from it easier,” R’dal agreed as he stood there waiting for F’drel to take the lead in getting the boat into the water. When it became obvious that the greenrider was possibly also playing the waiting game, he chewed on his lower lip and eyed up the boat again. He’d been doing that a lot since he arrived.
"Let's push and jump in. You're on the right and I'll go on the left," that seemed like a good idea and R'dal moved into position. Once F'drel seemed on board with the plan and got into place, he started pushing and decided while it really wasn't overly hard to do, it was enough to make the scrawny bluerider realise he needed to do more than tend to his dragon as exercise. He scrambled up over the edge when he noticed he was pushing more than needed and the water was threatening to lap at his pants that had only been rolled to mid-calf and grinned at his friend at their successful job.
That was likely the hardest part, R'dal decided as he glanced around them and how they floated so effortlessly on the water. It was kind of enthralling, really, and made a point to enjoy the view later on once they were in prime fishing location--wherever that might be. But when his gaze fell back onto the oars, R'dal amended his idea of what might be the hardest part. Cautiously he picked one up and then handed it over to F'drel with pure innocence radiating from him. He was still convinced F'drel was a lord's son before being Searched and boating seemed like a lordly activity. Oh! What if they had a drudge row for them? Suddenly embarrassed at his presumptions and lack of idea on how holders worked, R'dal gave a nervous laugh.
"I think it'll work better if we both take an oar," he pointed at the other one still lying on the bottom of the boat to show he was going to help as well. Even if drudges rowed, F'drel probably still had idea of the basics and R'dal figured he would sneak some peaks at his technique and copy it.
