Drifa and Brown Rifanth Drifa sat on her bed, contently despite the rushes poking up at her rear end and she raptly watched the large figure sleeping outside on a ledge. Drifa had Impressed at the Hatching about 1/2 turn back and she had also grown about an inch and was very proud of that fact and took every opportunity to show it off. Rifanth lay outside contently and soaked up the sun rays with complete happiness.![]() Sensing his riders thoughts, Rifanth raises his head and looks in for a second to see Drifa staring up at the stone ceiling and resumes his sunbathing. Drifa, have you seen that golden beauty flashing around the Weyr lately? Rifanth asked suddenly, standing and looking down at the weyrbowl quite a few dragonlengths below. "Yes, I have, why do you wonder?" Drifa stood and went to join her dragon out on the ledge, she looked down and saw the same activity Rifanth saw without a tinge of fear. Rifanth was always quite foward when he wanted to know something, what was he up to? I think she is quite beautiful. Her hide has just a beautiful color. Her rider seems nice too. They often let the firelizards bathe them. Come to think of it, I could use a bath and an oiling. Rifanth didn't have to say anymore and Drifa hopped, barebacked, onto his shoulders and Rifanth took off and made a lazy sprial towards the ground where the large outside hot springs were located. As they descended, a few firelizards joined them and chittered happily. Rifanth landed easily and Drifa waded into the water, not bothering to shuck off her short pants and top. Rifanth soon followed and they found the firelizards were quite willing to help.
