Rustled his wings lightly as he grunted, he'd been flying for two days running and barely had a rest, the ache that shot through his joints was reckless, though he managed to suppress a visual on his appearance. The dragonlet barely focused at this as she playfully hissed at the other dragons before munching down on those solid spines, the young were always oblivious to the hard life, but she was happy and that made the grey father proud enough. As Rala took lift he was quick to follow, powerful wings sending a testing gust towards the two still grounded before his hind legs tensed and kicked upwards, with that same motion the powerful wings went from raised high to thrusting towards the earth, head raised as he moved to allow access of lift to the remaining pair. His eyes glanced towards Rala as he raised just above her and sat nearby, a soft voice being used as he smiled partially, "Thank you..." "Thank you, for offering such help," he would then slowly drift off giving further distance, the little creature on his back quitting the mouthing as she leant slightly off to the side and smiled at the dragoness her father spoke to, poking a tongue here and there, before almost loosing grip, wide eyed, pursed lips and the funniest sounds a dragon could make as she scrambled back up and hunkered down as she did on the many journeys her father carried her through. All Ace could do was chuckle as the young one sat and pouted at him for a moment before glancing down at the two they waited for.
