"Does it usually work?" she asked as her hand continued to move. She tilted the paper, cocking her head as she studied it. She was fairly new to the whole sketching thing and had found a talent for it and a love for it. Listening to his little comment was annoying even if she knew that deep down she appreciated it. She wanted to ignore it, toss her head, and frown at him until he was cowering in the corner but Maliah was pretty sure she wouldn't get very far with that.
She growled and scrubbed the tails until they were gone before she started drawing again. She shortened them, making the tails stubby as he suggested, and sniffed when she realized he was right. She finally glanced up to see who was interrupting her. Bluerider. Cranky by the look of the wrinkles she could see starting. "Well beastie," she said with a nod, "Apparently you were right and they did need to be stubbier."
She studied him a little more, head still cocked, and tried to remember his name. There were a lot of dragonriders in a weyr and Mali couldn't say that she'd met every single one. "I can't seem to remember who you are," she said, "I can keep calling you beastie but people seem to get pissed when I do that, so unless you like it, I'm gonna need your name."
