Escorting a Lovely Green ((Elske))

[hrsegrl]

The trail was indeed tricky. Elske found herself struggling with her footing most the way down. Lucky for her, H'seo was there to make sure she didn't fall. When the reached the lake she heard Reinth's bugle and smiled. "I'm sure the water will be fine. Isleith informs me it isn't salty or itchy. " Elske had never been on for propriety so, as H'seo took off his shirt, she began to take off her own.

The greenrider couldn't help but admire the man's upper body. Even with a farmer's tan, he looked good. She stood on one leg to take off her shoes, a rather funny site to her dragon. While she didn't expect him to be as bold as she was, she wondered how much clothing he was taking off. When he kept his pants on she grinned. As for Elske, well, she took her pants off. No use getting them wet, besides her underwear more than covered her. Actually it was much easier to swim in her undergarments than her clothing. It wasn't like she was trying to show off. Though that wasn't a bad idea.

"Alright then." She smiled at him and then took off running into the Lake. When she was up to her knees in water she dove under. After a quick bout underwater, she surfaced. "Come on in, the water is nice!" What a lie! It was freezing! Isleith swam closer to the humans. Elske? The green querried. Yes, love?I really like them.I know. Me too.

H’seo, though far from a lusty man, was also far from blind. Elske was a lovely woman, there was no denying it, but he was not attracted to her body the most. No, even though she was the type of greenrider that turned heads, it was her cheerful, teasing personality that held the bluerider’s interest, not her curves. Though, Faranth knew she DID have a really nice body. The lady’s choice to rid herself of all of her garments did not surprise him, though, considering the weyr’s casual views. Grinning, ever more looking the errant weyrling, H’seo was hot on the greenrider’s heels, diving into the lake before she even finished her invitation.

“Whooo, colder than Bitran’s heart!” The man whooped, shaking his head as he surfaced and slinging small beads of water off his black hair. Swimming over to the woman, grinning, the bluerider pointed towards the waterfall. “The water is the deepest near the waterfall, Elske.” He drawled, his grey eyes beginning to glitter with mischief. “It’s mighty fun to fly to the top, and jump into the lake from dragonback. Would you like to try, m’lady?” H’seo already knew her answer, and so inwardly grinned, prepared to have Reinth explain to Isleith how the game was played. He knew the woman loved to have fun, and she was adventurous and willing to try any challenge.

Reinth followed the green over toward their riders, gliding smoothly behind the lanky man as he surfaced. He was very excited about swimming with the humans, especially after His mentioned their favorite trick. I hope Elske wants to try it! The blue said excitedly.

H’seo stilled. What did you say, partner? Did he just...name her?

The dragon mentally chuckled, and with a great, practiced heave of his tail, sent a wave of cold lake water rushing over the man’s head. You heard me.

H’seo roared. “You good-fer-nothin’ wherry!” He shouted, grinning all the same.

[hrsegrl]

He mentioned jumping off dragons into the water. She watched his face become michievious and wanted very much to kiss him, she refrained however. "oh really?"She said grinning. Elske was well on her way to Isleith when he suggested she try it. "What are you waiting for?" She asked with a wink.

She climbed onto Isleith's back. It was dangerous, flying without straps and all wet but Isleith would fly steady and if Elske slid off the green would catch her or she would land in water. The green swam to where her hind legs could touch, then she pushed off and into the air. You'll never catch up at that rate, Reinth. Isleith teased. She enjoyed the chase, even a chase not associated with her flight. It meant she was challenging him and that meant he had to prove himself.

Isleith flew smooth as a baby's bottom over to the water fall. They hovered waiting for Reinth and H'seo to catch up. Elske looked ready to jump but Isleith insisted they wait. Besides it might be fun to jump in at the same time. She figured she should jump in pencil drop style. It was more aerodynamic after all.

Shaking the water from his face after Reinth had drenched him, H’seo grinned to himself, watching the greenrider already making her way towards her dragon. He had rather thought she would want to try their little trick. Slinging his head again, sending small beads of water in every direction, the man laughed at the lady’s cheek. The lanky rider turned, swimming over to his blue and pulling himself onto the dragon’s neck. You’re lucky I don’t hang you by your toes, Partner. The wingrider said, his voice filled with good humor.

And you are lucky that is all I did. The blue returned, making powerful strokes with his legs towards the shore. He gave a short bugle as the lady green launched herself into the air and taunted him, accepting her challenge. Then I will go faster. Reinth replied with a grin in his mindvoice, pushing himself off the sandy lake bottom and rising into the air. She might have been more agile than he was, but he was also bigger, and his legs had found purchase quicker than hers. However, Isleith beat him to the waterfall, though he was not too far behind.

Coming to hover at her side, the blue gave a short call, excited. Mine says he is ready to jump when Elske is. Though the two riders were easily within shouting distance, considering their dragons were hovering right next to each other, the roar of the waterfall would drown them out. H’seo and Reinth had played this game many times, so the tall man was rather comfortable on his blue’s bare back, much like Elske. Standing, a lanky outline against the sky, the tall man gave the woman a mischievous grin, easily balanced on his dragon’s back. He would never have tried that trick anywhere else, but here if he fell, he would just land in the water. H’seo stood on Reinth’s back, prepared to make a dive when they were ready. He told his blue to start a countdown, which he shared with Isleith. Jump on three. One, two....

[hrsegrl]

She took a brief moment to look at the man before the countdown began. He didn't know what he did to her but that was just as well. She wasn't sure she wanted him to know. This ought to be good. Elske waited for the countdown to end. Her body was tensed, ready to jump off of Isleith when it came time to. She wasn't sure if going in head first would be a good idea so she decided that feet first would be better from this height. Isleith was counting down with Reinth. Three!

Elske jumped off of Isleith and made sure her body was straight as an arrow. Her feet entered the cold water first. The force of the fall into the water was a bit scary but Elske quickly pulled herself together and began swimming back to the top of the water. Her head popped out and she gasped for air. Next thing she did was look for H'seo.

Isleith watched from above. You are very cold.The air is chilling when you are wet and the water is cold as well. You have done enough swimming... you should sun a bit.I will discuss it with H'seo. You can start sunning without me.

[FireThorne]

Three!

Reinth gave a short bugle when they finished the countdown, H’seo grinning from ear to ear. He delayed a mere moment, watching Elske spring from her dragon and drop without even missing a beat. He had to admire her courage, and her vivaciousness. She was undoubtedly one of the most enchanting ladies he had ever met. Whooping, the bluerider sprang from his dragon’s back, arrowing his lanky body as he did. Near the water, he folded his legs and tucked his head down, crashing into the water cannonball style. The rider sunk like a rock, feeling his body sting with the strength of the impact. Quite used to the burning sensation, since he and Reinth played this trick all the time, he recovered quickly, swimming upward quickly towards the surface.

Breaking through the water, gasping, the bluerider shook his head, looking around for Elske. She was a fair distance away, but her back was turned to him, giving the man a wicked idea. They were rather close to the waterfall, so he did not think she could have heard his gasp when he surfaced. Taking a deep breath, H’seo slipped back under the water quietly, watching her slowly treading legs. Smirking a little to himself, the tall man slipped up behind her, coming quietly out of the water directly at her back. Leaning close to her ear, hoping he had not been seen, he grinned once more, ever looking the errant weyrling. “M’lady.” He drawled softly.

Reinth trumpeted his appreciation of the human’s respective jumps, in admiration of the greenrider’s effortless and fearless drop. You have found one that can keep up with you. The dragon said, a grin in his mindvoice. His rider chuckled in reply. Tired of swimming, since he and the lady dragon had been playing in the water all morning while their riders were watching the wild runners, the blue glided beside her, reaching out his nose to touch her neck. Would you like to sun some, Isleith? The sun is nice and warm here. Reinth said, almost as if he had read her mind. He was also looking forward to sunning with the green, but he was too shy to say it aloud.

[hrsegrl]

She treaded water, still wondering where the bluerider had gotten to. Elske had not expected him to be right behind her when he spoke. She turned around slowly, and kissed the bluerider before he could possibly know what was on her mind. She withdrew from him almost as quickly as she had kissed him and began to swim towards shore. Elske looked back a moment, calling, "Come on, its cold as Between in here!"

Elske didn't know what to expect from him. He seemed much more innocent in this game than she was. Then again there was no need to rush into anything. Isleith was no help of course. The green was perfectly happy so long as she was having attention lavished on her.

Sunning will be lovely. I urge our riders to do the same. Its very cold. Those silly humans had such thin skin. Isleith thought before realizing what her rider had just done. Elske! I thought we had agreed to go slow.It was just a kiss dear and I couldn't resist... The dragon found that amusing, but it was the way of her rider. She could resist but she didn't ever really want to.
