Fern / Flask | Rider / Dragon | Woods
the dragon curled and cut through the air like a water snake, it's body writhing and stretching and climbing upwards into the sky. It rose higher and higher, until it could rise no more, lingering at it's maxim for a few moments before shooting downwards, it's lone, piercing shriek echoing faintly over the woods that it had claimed as it's own for that night. Upon it's back, just below it's neck perched a saddle, and upon that saddle perched a rider. His body was downwards, flush to his dragon as it made it's descend from the sky, his single working eye becoming blurred and watery from the speed that they were going, his knuckles white on the reins and the saddle that he was gripping onto, thighs pressed for dear life into the vibrant scales of his dragon. This was the sort of flying that Fern enjoyed most, the heart-stopping sense of infinite freedom as they plummeted down to earth only to (hopefully) rise again. They were nearing the treeline now, growing closer and closer to the void, though he urged Flask onward, who gave a snort and continued with eagerness, the ground surging up from below them, closer and closer until Fern pulled at the reins, his entire body pulling upwards as Flask was flicked out of his descent, his tail nearly crashing against the ground as they once again flew upwards, above the treetops, simply gliding now before dropping off at a small sheet of cliff, the rider unstrapping himself from his dragon's back, landing on the ground with a soft thump, his heart still racing with adrenaline.
