Yéil Khyda | aka Raven | F | Musher | Tundra's Paw | M: Her dogs(dir), The other teams/mushers(ind)
Raven opened her blurry eyes with a yawn as her alarm went off. She pulled herself up before hitting the off button. No thoughts entered her mind until she took a look at her room and remembered where she was. It was race time. Today would be the beginning. Raven swung her legs off the bed and headed for the showers. Once she had finished and was fully awake, she moved to get dressed. She struggled briefly with her long sleeve shirt and her leggings before pulling her bib on. Soon after that, she put on her light jacket before putting on her team's colors. Her suit always made her smile. Despite her favorite color being a light blue, the white matched it nicely.
Shaking her thoughts out of fashion styles, she quickly finished dressing, pulling on her jacket. Raven exited the room, leaving it in the same condition as when she first entered. Tucking her hair into her hat, she headed out to her sled where she straightened out the gag line. Grabbing the harnesses, she made her way to the barn. Thankfully being the first one there, she let out a sharp whistle to get her team together. She opened the door, instantly putting her hand up. They had done this time and time again so she wasn't worried that any of the dogs would stray.
Calling to all the dogs first, she called gently, "Here. Come. Here." She repeated this as she stepped out of the stall. Walking slowly out of the barn to make sure all the dogs were with her, she came to the sled before making a fist. "Sit." She said clicking her tongue. She repeated the gesture until she had all of their attention and obedience. Once it was alright, she issued the next command. "Stay. Stay." She said before taking a couple steps back. She grabbed her first harness, bringing it out in front of her before calling to her first wheeler. "Nero, come here boy."
