Hello loves! While I haven't been writing, I have been working on updating some issues that have been hanging around on the layout! The Character change box is now at the bottom of the page, beside the up/down arrows! Green and Gold dragon flight dates have been shifted to the bottom of the page, where the (useless!) discord widget was located. Where the dragon flights were in the header, is now replaced by a Monthly Event box! This will be updated at the start of each month, with a fun mini-event you can take part in, if you want to! Thistle!

V'ry smiled at Arddra and fanned himself with his hands. His clothes were already starting to partially feel restrictive since the heat was a sticky, moist one, but at least he wouldn't be sweating for a time. This heat was damn oppressive.
"I imagine the cold of /between/ might feel refreshing to the both of us. This heat is terrible," he said, shaking his head in disgust. "I think since we've just a very short jump we'll be fine. If we were traveling farther it would be another thing entirely, and you'd be right," he said with an approving nod.
V'riy accepted the basket as Arddra handed it to him and nodded. "Sure, lake it is, then. I bet we won't be the only ones there," he said with a grin. "Wonder if it'll be hard to find a spot where we won't be disturbed," he said with a contemplative look. He wasn't in a mood to be social with anyone else if he didn't have to, with Arddra one of the few exceptions.
He jogged lightly over to Morith and secured the basket to the dragon and tightened and adjusted the riding straps, looking them over for a final inspection with a critical eye. He almost rushed through the actions, he was so impatient to be off but he knew better than to hastily check straps. He motioned Arddra over with quick waves of his hand when he was finished. "Let's be off," he called to her, thinking about the cool, refreshing lake water and the food waiting for him in the covered basket.
When Arddra was next to him, he made a step for her out of his hands and boosted her up onto Morith's foreleg, making sure she had a good grip on the straps. He quickly climbed up the bronze and got comfortable, waiting until they were both secure before visualizing the lake and letting the bronze dragon take to the air again.
When they emerged above the lake, the bronze extended his wings fully and glided a bit as they searched for a place to land. The dragon scanned an area that looked empty which had a few sun-baked boulders that were almost completely flat, a favorite spot of V'riy's that was on the far side of the lake and was mostly secluded. Luckily it appeared deserted and he folded his wings slightly, gaining speed as he descended toward the beach.
The wind rushed past Arddra and V'riy as Morith approached the lakeshore. It was a welcome breeze but not as refreshing as it might have been. The heat was just that bad. As the bronze quickly landed, V'riy swung himself over Morith's side with a "Down I go!" to Arddra and slid down to the ground, unhooking the basket.
The bronzerider started removing his necessary riding gear and outer clothing after setting the basket to the side and he produced a blanket from his shoulder bag. The bronzerider was now only in the slightly wet undershirt and pants. He held up and shook the thin blanket before guiding it to the ground and placed the basket on top of it in one corner, his shoulder bag on another, and one boot each on the remaining corners to keep the blanket in place. He heard Arddra hit the ground behind him and was just pulling off his shirt as he heard her walk up behind him.
V'riy bent over as peeled off shirt and pants, revealing a pair of shorts underneath. He was barely conscious of Arddra as he rushed to get in the water. He grinned at her and pointed to the water. "Gonna cool off before lunch," he chuckled and he bounded across the short distance to the lake with a rush of energy. Morith followed him in, making splashing noises as his powerful legs carried his bronze bulk into the water.
