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'riy chuckled at Arddra's assumption that he would be using up all of his spare time teaching her and slowly shook his head. "Not to worry, dear girl, I have plenty of time to spare," he assured her as he noted the rising color on her cheeks. The bronzerider presumed that she must be embarrassed by her poor swimming skills and made a mental note to be sure to instruct her in the near future.
The dragon stood as still as a statue while Arddra and V'riy started scrubbing him somewhat below his shoulders. The dragon was too large for them to get any higher in the shallow water. Don't worry, you're not hurting me. Think of it like… scrubbing… oh what are those root things called… potatoes? the dragon said in his musical voice before letting out a quick snort. Somewhat like scrubbing potatoes. Of course I am far superior to a potato. My hide is quite durable so long as it's well maintained.. it's when we get cracks and the tender flesh beneath becomes exposed that you'd have to be careful.
V'riy nodded as Morith alleviated Arddra of her worries. "You can brush a bit more vigorously than you would on your own skin, just don't overdo it in any one area. The real challenge is not how much pressure to apply… it's getting the entire dragon scrubbed properly. The first few times you scrub him, you'll see how tired out those arms of yours will get."
V'riy cleared his throat as he continued while Morith patiently stood in place. The bronze was clearly enjoying the attention and his eyes whirled bright blue as he regarded Arddra and his rider. "Since there's so much of them, it's easy to miss a spot here or there, so you really have to focus and develop a method. My routine is usually just to go from left to right, top to bottom, and then have him turn. Kind of boring, I know, but it gets the job done and since I do it the same way every time, I don't miss anything. And he'll let you know if any spot needs extra attention."
