Kadaisicalth watched the girl bathe her firelizard for several minutes, amused at the way the little green chirped and shivered or splashed her mate. He was also amused by how little his rider seemed to notice what was going on around him. Of course if R'dal was there with them, he'd be even more distracted. The pair of friends often seemed inseparable and Kadaisicalth often wondered if time apart from each other was needed more often. They were both on the awkward side but friendly, though they didn't spend a lot of their down time with a wide variety of people. Perhaps now was a time to change that. Someone else is here, you know,
R'dare wasn't known for being the most observant boy in the Weyr and he proved it yet again when he didn't notice Madiquel come up to the edge of the lake, not far from where he was lounging against his dragon, Kadaisicalth. To be fair, they weren't exactly out in the open and the blue dragon made a better door than a window so R'dare felt he could be excused for staying in his daydream-like state as he stared up at the branches of the trees closest to the beach line as he fiddled with his lower lip.
"Hm?" R'dare finally sat up and peered over Kadaisicalth's tail that he had been using as a pillow. He found the familiar shape of Madiquel and smiled at her task at hand. "Madi and Clover! You should have said something sooner," he gave his dragon a playful smack to his tail before standing up and brushing the sand off of his shorts. He had bathed the big blue earlier and had decided to sun himself as well, especially since washing a dragon wasn't exactly a job that kept you dry.
R'dare meandered over in only his shorts and a thin layer of sand on his back that he couldn't reach to brush off and called out a chipper greeting. Just before reaching his target, R'dare misstepped on the uneven sand and found himself tripping and landing on his knees. He laughed, used to his random clumsiness that seemed to strike at random and liked to leave him with just as random bruising, and got back up to finish his trek. Kadaisicalth sighed at his rider but rumbled with gentle laughter all the same. While it was actually a bit of an endearing quality of R'dare's, Kadaisicalth couldn't help but be glad the boy wasn't constantly living in a state of face-planting into the floor.
