I haven’t gotten to his shoulders yet, or his neck.” He laughed at the question about Erebuth being ticklish. “Sometimes on his belly I can tickle him; but he’s mostly just excited for any oiling and doesn’t mind it.” Fondly, he added, “sometimes I think he’d be happy if we only ever oiled, let alone sleeping or eating or playing.”
Less talking, more oil, please? My jaw itches. The blue turned so that the two could reach the itchy spot. “Try just here,” Kitt said, guiding Caz’s hand. “See how it’s drier than the rest? That’s what we’re trying to fix. If we ignored it, the hide could split and a chill get into it if he betweened. Dragons and riders rarely get sick, but they can. Or the skin could get tight and he’d have less range of motion when flying.”
They talked for a while, Erebuth shyly including the stranger in his commentary when they found the loveliest spots. B’kit asked the leatherworker about their trade in return, curiously. While he’d done basic work on riding straps, he was curious about tooling and other decorative techniques.
