Striding purposefully, V'riy made his way swiftly to the Barracks. He wondered if Arddra would be ready to meet him or if she had slept in on her rest day. It was still relatively early and she had said they would meet after breakfast. Well, he could find something to do if she wasn't around yet. Maybe he would go find Ce'lie and play with Isharyn. That young boy and Faredin were the only ones he seemed to be able to get on with.
Raising his hand over his eyes as he scanned the area, her slim form came into view and the man smiled in anticipation. He had been looking forward to this; it was certain to be a good bit of fun. As he approached, he held out a hand in greeting.
"Arddra! I see you're all set to go," he stated, nodding at her with satisfaction as he noticed the light tunic she was wearing and the plain shorts that went with it. Today, he had dressed for bathing Morith. Rather than his usual riding leathers, he was in a drawstring pair of tan cotton pants and a tight fitting dark blue tank-style top that showed off his athletic body. He had a small thin bronze-colored cord on his left shoulder knotted to display his rank, but that was all that really covered his arms and shoulders.
"I'm assuming you're okay with getting your clothes soaking wet?" He grinned and made a splashing motion at her. "It's great weather to be in the water today," he noted, already feeling the effects of the summer heat.
"I'm doing well, thank you," he replied, still smiling at her. "Well, maybe not as well as I would be if Ce'lie hadn't stolen my breakfast," he complained. "Morith is at the river. We usually do his washing either there or at the lake. Shall we?"
