E'naer stopped next to Aryn to have a little chat with her.
"Well, she's now exactly two months old, congratulations," he said, inspecting the little green.

"Yes sir, thank you!" Aryn said, giving Viyanth an odd scratch.
**You're growing dear heart!**

}: Yes I am! :{ she replied giving a swish of her tail in agreeance.

"How are you two done so far? Any problems?" E'naer asked. "And if you could ask her unfurl her wings so I can take a look at them, please?"

"Not a problem sir," she said as she spoke to Viyanth. **dear can you spread your wings?**

}: Oh Yes! :{ Viyanth said spreading her wings.

"Things have been going fine, shes growing so fast," Aryn replied.

"Not too fast I hope," E'naer said. That was sometimes problem with blues and greens, they grew so fast they couldn't keep up with themself. He inspected Viyanth's wings, run his hands along her flanks and poked her muscles. He radiated satisfaction when he finished.
"You're very pretty and in good shape."

"Oh no, just I've never taken care of something so big before."

}: Am I too big Aryn? :{
**No, just right dear heart. But your quite larger then the beasts you eat**

}: Mmmm, is it lunch time? :{
**No** she replied with an affectionate pat. "Thank you sir."

}: Yes I am pretty, look how my wings, catch the light :{ She said to Aryn, continuing to keep them up for a bit.

"You vain thing," she said quietly.

E'naer chuckled softly. "Do you feel you're ready for the next step in your weyrling training? We start with firestone next, sorting it, bagging and the wonderful dragon toss."

"I'm ready for anything sir, not that, taking care of this green monster isn't fun," she affectionatly gave Viyanth a pat, "But, its about time to start earning our keep around here." She looked up, to the open air, "I can't wait to fly."

"You still have bit more to wait untill you are ready to fly. But the time will pass quickly."

"I'm sure it will. Especially with all those new classes and drills now?" she replied with an impish grin.

"Especially with them," E'naer's answering grin was almost as impish as hers.

Aryn couldn't quite stifle a laugh at E'naer's facial expression.
"Yes," she said, her eyes again searching up towards the sky.

E'naer followed her gaze. There were a wing up there, drilling, flowing smoothly from formation to formation. "It's looks like a dance, doesn't it? That formation is called Douple arrow."

"I don't know if the name does it justice," she said, a bit breathily.
Arrow was a weapon, so douple arrow sounded martial. But above was a carefully choreographed aerial dance.

"Maybe not. You'll be learning those soon."

"I can't wait," she said smiling up at E'naer.

"You'll make a great rider pair," E'naer said with almost paternal pride.

"Thanks," Aryn said, then gave Viyanth another scratch. **You hear that?**

}: Yes! We shall be the best pair! Thread will run away from _us_ :{ "Keep up the good work," E'naer said. The greenrider was firm believer of compliments and praise.

"I will!" Aryn replied.
