Cazan eagerly wrote down everything that the dragonrider shared, adding small notes and strap diagrams onto her sketched dragon, and adding a few more to the next page as she asked for the occasional bit of clarification. On a new sheet she drew a quick diagram of a horse saddle for B'kit to look at as well, pointing out the different parts and design considerations when used on a horse.
When the conversation shifted to the oiling she wrote those notes down as well, especially the addition of some herbs by some riders. When B'kit mentioned that dry skin was dangerous when dragons went between she couldn't help but think of ghost dragons with flaky skin floating around in the darkness.
"Oh of course I'd like to help, thank you." Getting hands on experience was much better than listening and watching, so Cazan readily agreed, setting down her notebook and walking over to stand by the dragon. This would be quite the learning experience, she'd get to see what the oil felt like and try to think of potential oil blends that might perform a bit better, feel the texture of a dragon's hide, see if maybe they would benefit from having the inside of the straps lined with lambs wool or fur, and more importantly it would give her hands something better than a pen to occupy themselves. "So, what do I do. Any spots I should focus on or avoid? Is he ticklish?"
