There was not much to do. Damisath and X'teis had been efficient, as always, even if the former was bored to
death of lessons and homework. X'teis kept him on track, which Damisath somewhat, secretly appreciated, but...it was time for something fun.
Unfortunately, he needed an oiling, and X'teis did not cut corners when it came to Damisath's health. (Not that he cut corners in general.) So, before they could do anything fun, they had to do some oiling. Maybe, just maybe, they could find some company, before Damisath had to sit still for it. Sure, oiling was
nice, but Damisath would rather play or explore.
It caused both relief, surprisingly, when they spotted Damisath's twin, also getting oiled. Damisath did enjoy his sibling, and Nimrath was not especially dull. A bit silly, maybe, and easier to amuse than Damisath (at least in Damisath's mind), but certainly good company. And X'teis needed to socialize more. X'teis's relief stemmed from Damisath being less bored during the oiling, naturally. His dragon needed to learn to just...relax? And be okay with not doing things?
"Ah, we'd love to join you," X'teis said, polite, despite not feeling especially sociable. "I hope you two are well."
Nimrath! It has been ages, my dearest twin. Damisath sat down near his brother, as X'teis prepared the oils.
I am certain that I can find something to interest you, but it would be a matter of what sort of thing you would like to hear. Certainly, he could indulge his brother in knowledge and gossip alike. If it made Nimrath happy, he was happy to show off how clever he was, how much he noticed about others.
