Ilia's plan seemed to be working and her winged partner flew through hoop thirteen smoothly, without flame prompting. The fourth year kept walking towards hoop fourteen and singing praises to her charge. She was certain that Henric would tease her later for it, but he sang just loud enough for Astrid to hear hopefully. The higher she sang though.......the more interested her little dragon seemed.

Astrid seemed to be getting tired, but she only had two more hoops to go. "Come on big girl, you can do it!" It wasn't about competition at this moment, which was different for Ilia. She was a very competitive sort of girl, but past the initial realization that if they could win in some form she got to see Astrid more.....it didn't even register to her this time. It wasn't about being the best or extra house points.......she just wanted her new friend to become stronger and truly get a feel for her wings. When she was bigger, to be able to soar and feel the wind carrying her.

"Incendio." She tickled her underside with flaming warmth once more for maternal encouragement. Number fourteen down! She saw Henric's wave and smiled at him, returning the gesture just slightly. Ilia did not want to exaggerate her hand movements and distract the adorable little ball of scales anymore than she already was.

Alright......this was it. The last silvery hoop was in their sights. Astrid seemed to be petering out as far as energy went though and started flying lower and more awkwardly once more. "This is the last one baby girl! You can do it!" She gave one more flame nudge and began to sing a little louder and higher. Her cheeks were blushing a bit pinker as she side glanced at Henric. He could probably hear her now and would probably tease her about how she sounded later. Still, she sang to her and gestured in hopes that she would do well through the last hoop.

She was tired, it was clear as she almost didn't seem like she would make the last hoop. She was so close to the bottom of it her left wing brushed the side and she tumbled forward a little. Ilia was waiting right beneath just in case though and the little dragon let her flight descend smoothly.
