Suwayeth is a motivated weyrling!
6 : You manage to make it off the ground, but in your confidence, you didn't account for the shore breezes, and one of them throws you off-balance and back down on the ground. Ouch! Good thing the sand doesn't hurt...much.
The irritation was palpable as Suwayeth got to her feet, slowly spreading her wings and shaking sand from herself. She was never the type to allow irritation get to her, yet it was a spike in her paw for the moment. Kieza sent soothing thoughts to her, trying to aid her in the process of making her feel better. She rolled her shoulders and arched her neck. She could do this!
With a growl, she flapped her wings, and once gain, she found herself airborne. And then... A quiver of wind, a yanking sensation. And then she meeting ground again. She laid there for a long moment on the sands, wondering if she should even bother getting up. The others would be laughing at her, wouldn't they?
"Suwayeth! I believe in you! Try something different! Don't you let the wind win!" Kieza called, a wave of love assaulting the dragon the dragon through the bond. Her rider was right!

Suwayeth is a motivated weyrling!
7: Hey, this is fun! Your dragon manages to lift off and lay on the ocean breezes. While they are high up n the air, they seem to be a natural, catching a thermal here, and finding a down draft there. They know when to glide, when to soar, and when to wheel. How fun!
Now this! This was something she could get used to. Suwayeth let out a loud bugle, delighting in the way her wings cupped the air and pushed her upwards with an uncommon ease. The take-off may have not been a graceful sight to behold, but now Suwayeth looked like an aerial champion! Long, gangly wings that seemed so awkward on the ground now seemed to rule the winds in a graceful manner.
On the ground, Kieza was laughing. She couldn't help it. The rush of feeling and the literal feeling of wind beneath her nonexistent wings was intoxicating. The girl had to sit down to keep from falling over. "You're doing wonderful, Suwayeth!" She yelled happily up at the swooping green who bugled out a returning call to her rider. "Keep it up!"

Three hearts beat in terrified unison as Nzambith fell, but before she got too close to the sea a familiar green dragon swooped in and caught her. Vennodren nearly fell over into the water himself out of relief, a cool wave of safety and protection enveloping him. He slogged out of the shallows in the direction that Asilaeth and Ty'bar were landing in, stumbling over his own feet to get there. Shells, but that had been terrifying!
"Thank you," he said, breathless as he finally reached the small green and her rider. "That was terrifying but I suppose a good lesson all in the same." He reached out to rest his hand on Asilaeth's leg, hoping she didn't mind his sweaty palm.
Nzambith - who had been curled up tightly against the larger green's chest - slowly unfurled as she realized she was safely on the ground once more. Lifting her head, her eyes swirling a multitude of colors as she spotted Venn, she began to squirm to get down. Vennodren took the dragonet out of Asi's arms, snuggling her gently.
He heard Amra approach and he turned to her, a relieved smile on his face.
"Yes, I think so. Just a scare," he said, rubbing the smooth skin of Nzam's back. "Flying isn't as easy as we thought, is it my dear?"
Nzam, still a bit shook, just gave a tiny tired bugle in reply. She heard the calls of concern from her siblings and glanced up at the sky, giving them a shaky but reassuring wave of affirmment that she was all right. Words were never really her forte and in the moment she was 'verbally' quiet.

Hessianth is still Motivated - but pride does come before the fall
Nzambith's wave of assurance made Hessianth push back one of his own before he did another circle to go back around again and making a mad dash out above the water.
Loreleth! It's fine! Come! Join us! Hessianth again tried to lure his uncertain brother up into the air with him, clearly enjoying his newfound freedom...but the sudden jolt of his rider's mind caused him to quickly refocus on what he was doi---!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There was a loud honk of concern as Hessianth went higher and higher and it was clear to anybody watching that, perhaps, this hadn't been the brown's idea at all.
Hessianth! Stop flailing! I AM NOT FLAILING! But he was absolutely flailing and soon it was clear that the brown would not be staying up in the air. Certainly, he didn't cry out for help, absolutely determined to figure it out on his own or die trying as he began his descent. Then, in a moment, Eosphoth was there, trilling concern, but easily maneuvering around him to straighten out wings and balance him into a gentle glide.
He landed on all fours in the sand on the beach, cheeping bewilderedly, before shaking out his body - and cackling with laughter. WELL! There went my plans for a new form of freeform dragon diving! he made the jab at himself for all to hear even as his rider approached to check him over, looking off towards the retreating form of his mother's green. You gave me a heart attack! L'nik said as he checked over the brown, testing for tender muscles from his panicked flail (that had not been a flail thank you very much!).
Hessianth trilled. Nonsense! Your heart is perfectly undamaged! Well you took ten turns off my life And I'll add fourty more on! You're still ahead!
Clearly, he wasn't taking things as seriously as he should have.
Uta COME FLY EVERYTHING'S FINE (and then it wasn't)

Suwayeth is a motivated weyrling!
6. You wheel and dive, finding joy in the long dives, only to catch yourself at the last moment. You spread your wings, and turn the fall into a glide, trumpeting success despite Orioth bellowing a warning. Don't do anything stupid -- otherwise you could get hurt! Don't take needless risks!
Suwayeth continued to fly, catching every updraft, pulling her higher and higher into the air. Her eyes were caught on a random cloud above her. Higher! She wanted to climb to that cloud, but her wings were not quite ready for that type of height. With a long breath, the bright and dark green dragon, turning her nose downward and with her eyes now pointed down toward the white-capped waves... she closed her wings against her body. And... fell. Her body plummeted like a rock toward the waters below. She heard Oriath's roaring bellow, noting her dive, but ignored it as her wings snapped open, turning the dive into a glide over the waves. She answered Oriath with a trumpet of success, though she knew that his warning was not to be unheeded.
She eyed the large dragon for a moment before tilting her head toward where her rider say, and noticed the cloud-white form of a fellow dragonet she was more than happy to see. Her eyes swirled purple and she bugled a greeting to Brancath. Come, beautiful sister! Come fly with me!

Tinanath is a very Motivated Little Derg! Would anyone expect less of him?
3. Nothing happened. You jumped, you flapped, and you find yourself with all four legs on the ground. Hmm, maybe you didn't quite do it right.
Today was the big day! Tinanath practically bounced as he stood next to his beloved. Today was the day he would fly! He had been working hard to get to this moment, training and practicing and even getting airborne on occasion. Not that he was a fat dragon by any stretch; he was solid and heavily muscled, that was all. And those muscles would carry him into the air with ease!
The young blue spread his wings and stretched them in anticipation. You'll see, Mine -- I will fly with ease! I know exactly how to do it. It was true, too! He had paid attention to the Weyrlingmaster's lessons and instructions, and besides, he naturally had the instincts to fly. Nevermind that his clutchmates also had those instincts; his were clearly superior.
Ph'ton laughed, as he often did at Tinanath's sometimes overconfident antics, and petted the dragonet's head. "I know you can do it! If I know you, you'll show your siblings how it's done!" Perhaps it was his lifemate's confidence bleeding into his thoughts, but Ph'ton felt sure that Tinanath would have no problem with flying at all.
Tinanath watched a number of the other Weyrlings take flight. Now was the time for him to outdo all of them! Stepping away from Ph'ton, he stretched his wings out and began flapping them. Harder and harder, leaping into the air as he flapped away. But nothing happened. He didn't soar, he didn't even glide. He paused in his mad flapping. I think the wind is wrong in this direction,, he grumbled, raising his head to test the air. Yes, that was obviously it. He'd have to try again.

Turning around to face the shore, Tinanath tried again. He leapt and flapped his wings and even started running along the ground to catch the wind. And it worked! The blue lifted into the air, flapping frantically to gain height. Pausing to spread his wings into a soar, he looked back toward Ph'ton, sending intense feelings of pride to his beloved rider. See, Mine? I KNEW it would be easy-
Just then a gust coming off the ocean caught one wing. The dragonet suddenly began to tumble in a spiral groundward, landing hard on his side in the sand. Luckily he hadn't gotten too high, or he might have hurt himself. As it was, his pride was severely wounded.
Tinanath stood and shook the sand off himself. This was getting annoying.

Once more he tried, and once more he didn't make it into the air. He KNEW he was doing it right, or at least thought he was. Maybe the previous fall had hurt one of his wings! That had to be it. Ooooo, he crooned sadly, favoring the wing he'd landed on.
Ph'ton, suddenly concerned, hurried to Tinanath's side and felt his wing. "There's nothing wrong with it," he reassured the little blue. "C'mon, you can do ii! I believe in you!"
