Subject: The boy and the bronze reach the Perches.

T'gan picks up a bucket of water and cleaning tools, and starts scrubbing his dragon. Chuth closes his eyes and croons in pleasure as the remains of his meal are washed from his hide. A brown firelizard flies in. After observing T'gan for a moment, the 'lizard picks up a brush and begins to scrub vigorously at the blood on Chuth's face. T'gan chuckles. "Helping me out, Kestor?" Kestor chirps and scrubs harder.

Chuth's eyes whirl as he adjusts their focus, watching the tiny creature perched on his nose. *He's cute,* the young bronze tells his rider. *And I think he likes me. I like him.*

T'gan laughs. ^I can see that!^ Putting down the brush with a flourish, he grins at Chuth. ^You're clean!^

*I itch,* Chuth complains, scratching his tail.

^Well, that's what this is for,^ T'gan declares, displaying a jar of oil. He starts oiling his dragon, who croons happily.

As T'gan finishes oiling Chuth, the firelizard lands on the dragon's head and chirps at the boy. *The firelizard itches too,* Chuth notes. *You should oil him.*

^You're right, Chuth! I hadn't thought of that. Thank you.^ T'gan dabs a bit of oil onto Kestor's back, and begins rubbing it in.

*You're welcome,* Chuth says sleepily, curling up into a ball on a sleeping platform.

T'gan finishes oiling his firelizard and walks over to sit by the sleeping Chuth. He rests his head on the bronze flank, smiling at his bondmate. Kestor lands on his shoulder and curls up, as sleepy as the much larger dragon.
