In their weakened state, Kath and Seikih had gone back to the weyr. Pain was wracking the pair, and Seikih slid off once they were there. The healers seemed to be able to make quick work of everything. Not so bad, she heard, relatively simple to heal, and it was in no time at all, it seemed, that they were allowed to return to their Wing. Good. Let them do this.

Aresoth was having to weave through more riders to go after another piece of Thread, dodging once more and C'ryn was thrown again. This time, he heard the straps tear and his eyes opened wide as he felt them loosen more then he could tighten again. Aresoth! We have to go back to the Weyr! The bronze turned his attention to his rider, feeling the slipping and he reached out to Aviroth, shame filling his mind from his riders.
Aviroth, we must return to the Weyr. The straps have been weakened from the small scores we have taken. Mine will grab his spares and be back in the air as soon as capable.
They were back over the Weyr quickly and Aresoth glided down, landing easily while C'ryn slipped out of the straps. The young man was doing his best to keep the anxiety he was feeling hidden. Dear lord...how could he have had to come down because his sharding straps had broken...he would have rather had Thread burrowed into him and had to be dunked. V'mel had to be disappointed in him, regretting his decision on making him Wingsecond for this Threadfall.
Enough of that mine. Aresoth's voice came through C'ryn's fretting as the boy was removing the ruined straps. Things have changed since those were made, you have gotten taller and put on more muscle. We are now fighting Thread and both of us have gotten scored on this day. It has nothing to do with your work being shoddy. The bronze pushed his head against his rider, trying to take away the insecurities there were filling up. "You're right Aresoth. I'm sorry." He ran a hand lovingly over the bronze's headknobs. "Stay here and keep an eye on things for me. I'm going to run and get our spares. Let's hope they stay together better then these did."
As C'ryn ran off to grab what was needed, Aresoth turned his attention upward for a moment, regarding everything. While he felt some worry and embarrassment about what had happened, they couldn't help what had happened. They had to continue on and if that meant changing out straps for better ones so they could get back in the fight, then that was it. If V'mel was angry for something that was an accident that they couldn't completely control, Aresoth was happy to let him be angry. He could still make sure he and his rose in the ranks without the brownrider's help, they were destined for that anyways.
His head turned to look down at those still on the ground for their wing, his eyes moving over the blue and green bodies. One in particular caught his attention and he padded over to her. How are you doing, Cynosuth? He was curious to know if the little green was anxious or excited.

XP: +6 Target Accuracy: 8 +1 +1 +1 Flame Length: 7 General Stamina: 7 +3 General Agility: 6 Between Accuracy: 6 +1 Pain Resilience: 7 +1 Instinct: 6 Luck: 6
Phaeth with earnest was burning through a clump of thread with some renewed energy from before, as long as they avoided being injured again they would be able to survive the rest of the afternoon.
”How are you holding up?” D’mos ran his fingers along his neck not prepared for the jerk that the bronze pulled as a gust of wind shifted the silvery strands into their direction. Within a blink they moved in between and out of harm's way.

Back in the air, and the first thing they hit was a patch of thread. Flaming it fully and quickly, the pair shot it out of the sky, ignoring the ash. They were back with a vengeance.
The rolled in the sky disposing of another clump of thread before the blue eyes noticed another rider growing dangerously close to silver masses that threatened to harm them.
”WATCH OUT!” He tried to yell out to the rider as Phaeth flew as fast as his large body would allow him but it they only managed to dispose of one luckily the rider moved quickly in time to avoid anything serious.

The duo flickered from between into another patch of sky in their section of the thread fighting and he looked around towards their other wingmates trying to make sure everyone was fairing well. While fighting thread was a top priority ensuring his Wing was alright was important as well.

(wingsecond chance roll)17. 17-19 You know your Wing, and are confident in their abilities. Part of being Wingleader or Wingsecond is caring for those you fight with!

You call out, encouraging them to fight through the pain, the hurt, the exhaustion, and assuring them of their greatness. Quote a Wingmate and nullify any negative Status Effect immediately. If no negative status effects are in play, you may nullify a Wingmates damage instead!

7. You notice that one of your wingmates is in trouble. Look out! Your dragon screams warning, and you watch as they successfully dodge catastrophe.

The quoted wingmate can remove that damage, unless they have already returned to the Weyr for healing or are already playing out a KO'd scenario.
TRESPASSERS WING =Flying First Wave= Tyila of Green Mishaath Round 2-4 6 – 12(1) – 6 – 5 – X X – X – X – X – X
Roll: 5 - Wheeling, flaming, catching thermals, fighting wind.... Threadfall is nothing if not exhausting. Greens, and blues find themselves panting with exhaustion. This is more tiring than they thought. Trying to come up from a dive, they struggle on wing and wind up getting blown right into some thread. Ouch! [+1 Stamina, Moderate Damage -4 HP ] - Saved by Kindeth! HP: 19/19 Status Effect: N/A XP: +7 Agility, +1 Stamina Target Accuracy: 3 Flame Length: 2 General Stamina: 2 General Agility: 4 Between Accuracy: 2 Pain Resilience: 2 Instinct: 2 Luck: 4
Constantly ducking and weaving was much more Mishaath's style than just struggling to fly straight, but it too was taxing. The rest she'd had before only lasted so long, and though managing the wind here was somewhat easier, it still only worked so long until they were blown right towards a clump of thread...!
ASHLINGS WING V'mel of Brown Aviroth Round 2-4 (Gold Altitude) 18 – 1 – 6 – 19(4) – X X – X – X – X – X !!Fatigued 0/3!!
Roll: 19 - Your dragon is starting to feel tired. This particular fight is wearing them down. A strong gust of winds tries to throw them out of their position. Roll a D4 to see what happens! - Failure! Your dragon is blown completely out of formation, and is too tired to stop it. Fellow wingriders notice, and trumpet warning, though it's unclear if your Wingleader has noticed or not. Either way, your dragon is just spent. Worse, they are blown right into a small sliver of Thread! Moderate Damage -4 HP Fatigue Effect HP: 33/40 Status Effect: Fatigued XP: +1 Stamina, +2 Between Accuracy, +1 Instinct, +1 Target Accuracy, +4 Flame Length Target Accuracy: 8 Flame Length: 6 General Stamina: 7 General Agility: 6 Between Accuracy: 7 Pain Resilience: 7 Instinct: 6 Luck: 6
The sudden alert that indeed, C'ryn's straps had snapped was met with nonplussed stoicism. Return quickly, but worry not. Accidents will happen, even once you and Yours are full riders. Better to learn to handle them quickly and with focus now, when you are still under our wing, than in a turn, when you might be higher up in the air, in a worse fall, or when your loss might more greatly effect others relying on you.
Their issue had been noted, but they would not be unduly judged for it. Their reaction to it, perhaps...
The brown dragon redoubled his efforts, rising and falling, hanging in this wing, then that, effectively covering for the bronze's absence...for a time. Not even their stamina was without limit, and as they came coasting down into the gold wing again, V'mel could feel something wasn't quite right. Aviroth was spending more time flapping than he should, and he could feel a heaviness to the brown's wings. A strong gust upset them, blowing them back...thankfully not into a large clump, but enough. When they cracked back from between they had retaken formation, but the brown's normally placid blue eyes had dulled to a mustard-orange; he was tired, and it showed.
QUEENS' WING Lestenna of Gold Uridith Round 2-4 15 – 2 – 15 – 2 – X X – X – X – X – X
Roll: 2 - You see a stray strand writhe out of the corner of your eye. Your rider quickly twists in her seat, and catches the errant strand with a well-timed aim of their flamethrower! +1 Target Accuracy HP: 40/46 Status Effect: N/A XP: +2 Agility, +5 Target Accuracy, +1 General Stamina, +1 Luck Target Accuracy: 7 Flame Length: 6 General Stamina: 7 General Agility: 6 Between Accuracy: 8 Pain Resilience: 6 Instinct: 7 Luck: 6
Things went well or they fell apart. This time they went well, as Uridith dropped a wing in time with Lestenna's twist to sear a patch of thread. The limits of the seat's flexibility, how fast the flamethrower triggered...the turns of practice were paying off, and their reactions were getting much faster now.
QUEENS' WING =Flying First Wave= V'tre of Green Thanoth Round 2-4 13 – 15 – 11 – 8 – X X – X – X – X – X
Roll: 8 - You want to do more. You want to be more. You're frustrated by the lack of action down in the lower wings, though you do now it's a very important role. You fidget in your riding straps. (Time 1/3) HP: 11/14 Status Effect: N/A XP: +2 Target Accuracy, +1 Agility, +2 Pain Resilience, +1 Luck, +1 Between Accuracy Target Accuracy: 2 Flame Length: 1 General Stamina: 1 General Agility: 2 Between Accuracy: 3 Pain Resilience: 1 Instinct: 1 Luck: 2
The thread he'd been going for was blasted before he got to it, and then the next, and the next. Eventually Thanoth just settled in, coasting in the wake of one of the golds as they kept heads on a swivel. Nothing? Nothing. Well...shards. They'd finally gotten this flaming things figured out just right, and now there was nothing to use it on!
BURNING ACES WING =Flying First Wave= V'rind of Blue Krahsujunth Round 2-4 11 – 1 – 10 – 16 – X X – X – X – X – X
Roll: 16 - The wind picks up, and you fight to keep in formation. Your wings strain, but you're able to keep your place! Though your muscles ache, you're not going to give up so easily. Pern depends on you! +2 Stamina HP: 25/33 Status Effect: N/A XP: +2 Luck, +1 Flame Length, +2 Stamina Target Accuracy: 6 Flame Length: 6 General Stamina: 9 General Agility: 6 Between Accuracy: 6 Pain Resilience: 8 Instinct: 6 Luck: 6
The wind was howling this high up, but Krahsujunth would not be defeated! He might be only a blue, by the Weyr's standards, but V'rind believed in him. Fianth believed in him too! He had sworn to keep their home safe, and so a little wind wasn't going to take him out now. He plowed through the gale like a steamship, refusing to let it best him!

You are welcome, please fly safely- Oh. Cynosuth sat down on her haunches, blinking at Aresoth in surprise. Why was he on the ground? Peering at him, the little Green noticed that he didn't quite seem to have his riding straps on at the moment. Distracted, she hovered between wanting to be polite to Oyath and wanting to greet her clutchbrother properly. Hello, Aresoth. I am doing well. There are many that my Dr'stan needs to heal, so we are very busy.
In fact, her Dr'stan was moving on to a new patient. "You're welcome," he told A'ye. It was no trouble, after all. But his tools and his hands were needed elsewhere. Several of the dragons had caught the full brunt of thread, and there was a definite need to get right to work. So, he allowed Cynosuth to spend time with her brother while he got to it. There was no time to waste.

Sitting on his haunches as well, Aresoth let his eyes move to look back up at where the others were flying. My straps tore. C'ryn has gone to get our spares so we may go back up into the air. There was an anxiousness in him, an urge to want to get back up there and fight, but he had to wait and was content to do so down here. He had known that Cynosuth had not asked him why he was on the ground right now, but he had seen the question in her eyes.
I am glad you are doing well, and that you picked such a capable rider. The bronze had respect for the man, he was a hard worker and cared for dragons. He had been the perfect choice for his delicate green sister. The winds up there are strong, Thread is being thrown about quite easily. I am honestly surprised that there have not been more hurt. Of course he was truly surprised that no one had yet died this day, though he was grateful for it.

The speech that went out as the Wings changed altitude gave Ddraigth a boasted morale. The pair settled in and Dr'stan threw a piece of Firestone. The quick pain of a bitten tongue came and Ddraigth hissed as the ichor once again flowed from his mouth. He could not believehe had done that again.
