Line #5 Heartwarming/DragonBooster


1	'''As a Moments subpage, all spoilers are unmarked [[Administrivia/SpoilersOff as per policy.]] Administrivia/YouHaveBeenWarned.'''
2	----
3	* Near the end of episode 1, just as Beau has been restrained by Moordryd's energy draining Black gear. Beau only breaks free and escapes with the Dragon Eye crew, due to hearing Artha and Lance calling out for help while trapped in their house as it's burning.
4	* In episode 2, Decepshun surprisingly enough. Unlike the rest of the Dragon Eye crew, who all abandon Moordryd to face Artha and Beau alone. She at least stayed near her rider. [[UndyingLoyalty Possibly with the intention of stepping in if she believed him to be in any real danger]].
5	* Episode 3 "Into the Fire", before her mind is taken over by Word's MindControl pod, Pyrrah is a very honorable racer. Even helping Artha during their race at the beginning of the episode.
6	** Once freed of the control pod, Pyrrah thanking Artha for saving her brother Sparkk, by giving him some of her high-quality gear.
7	* Episode 4 "Opposing Force", Mortis comforting Lance when the boy explains that he's tired of everyone treating him like he can't help. Especially heartwarming, considering Morits is actually the boys' father in disguise.
8	--> '''Mortis:''' What troubles you, Lance?
9	--> '''Lance:''' Everybody's always telling me, I'm ''not'' big enough for this. Or ''too'' small for that. It stinks!
10	--> '''Mortis:''' (''with compassion'') They're just trying to protect you. But remember, it's not how big you are Lance Penn. It's the size of your heart that matters, and when I look at you. I see courage, as big as a mountain.
11	* Episode 5, "Fanning the Flames" having Artha trust Kitt enough to reveal his secret as the Dragon Booster to her. True, the moment is hampered a bit by her still being angry at him for forgetting to give her due credit after she'd previously helped him to win a race. Still, he at least tried.
12	* While brief, the moment in episode 6 "The Stand". Wherein Beau curls up around a tired Artha as they both take a nap is surprisingly adorable.
13	** Artha managing to psychically connect with Beau, which manages to free him from Word's control.
14	* Episode 7 "Horn of Libris", the moment Artha figures out that Libris is only acting aggressive due to his Draconium frequency being out of balance. Instead of trying to destroy the ancient Bone Dragon. Beau draws the Draconium energy from Lance, Parmon, Artha, Kitt and even Moordryd. Transferring it to Libris, thus restoring Libris to normal. No longer angry, he calmly bows to Beau in gratitude before leaving peacefully.
15	** Khatah reconciling with Artha after Libris leaves and the Horn of Libris is recovered.
16	--> '''Khatah:''' I owe you an apology. Artha, you were right. Heroes need help to be heroes.
17	* Episode 10 "The Lost Track of Doom". After passing Propheci's first challenge. Lance spots a way to escape the Track of Doom, but it's too small for the Dragons. Without hesitation, the kids adamantly refuse to leave their Dragons behind in order to escape. Something which leaves Propheci, who was observing them the whole time, genuinely impressed.
18	** In the pit, after defeating the evolved Orange Dragon. [[DirtyCoward While his fellow Dragons flee in fear and panic]]. Artha, Beau and the others save Propheci after the platform he was standing gives way, and he plummets into the lava beneath the pit. Pulling Propheci up to safety, even after everything he'd done to them. Propheci actually shows gratitude. Even deactivating his Orange Control Gear and allowing his rider, Reepyr to speak for himself.
19	* Episode 11, "Pride of the Hero" has a minor moment that stands out. Watching Artha using the same upgraded blocking staff he got from Stewardd back in "[[CallBack All is Not Lost]]", when he rushed to save [[FriendOnTheForce Captain Faier]] from some Wrath Dragons.
20	** By the end of the episode, both Artha and Moordryd are both a bit more open minded.
21	--> '''Moordryd:''' (''about Beau'') He choose ''me''.
22	--> '''Artha/Dragon Booster:''' Yeah, he did. Think about that, I will.
23	* In episode 12 "Misjudged", while Moordryd constantly insults Kawake. Like trying to taunt the man by claiming Kawake only retried from Drag Ball out of cowardice. The constant cheering for Kawake from the crowds, clearly indicate his opinion is not shared among the Drag Ball fans.
24	* Episode 14 "If It Ain't Broke". The reason Stewardd risked coming out of hiding and getting captured and enslaved by Word. He wanted to give Artha some new gear as a gift for his kindness and encouragement the last time they met.
25	** When Lance confesses to Stewardd that he broke the gear. Stewardd is completely calm and forgiving, even happily agreeing not to tell anyone about the accident.
26	** While Kitt attempting to switch out Stewardd's gear with Parm's can come across as a childish move on her part. From her perspective, it wasn't anything personal. Kitt was only trying to teach Artha to rely on his own skills. Plus, as she pointed out, Artha even having the gear would have put a target on his and Stewardd's backs from Word Paynn.
27	* Episode 1 of season 2 "Rules of Power". The fact that Parm went out of his way to save Khatah from the Samurox Mark map. Just because he was worried when he saw him acting strange.
28	** Khatah later returns the favor, [[AFriendInNeed when Parm is the one who falls under Samurox influence]].
29	* Episode 2 of season 2 "Broken Bonds". Mortis attempting to reassure Lance, after Artha and Beau have been captured by Word.
30	--> '''Mortis:''' Stay strong Lance, all is not lost, not yet.
31	--> '''Lance:''' What do you mean? [[TearJerker I've lost my father, my best friend. And now my only brother! I've lost everything!]]
32	--> '''Mortis:''' But you must not lose your hope. What is lost, can always be found again.
33	** When told to check up on Dragon Booster, [[PetTheDog Spratt brings him a soda to drink]].
34	** Artha being able to convince Spratt to leave the Dragon Eyes and pull a HeelFaceTurn.
35	** Everybody celebrating when Artha returns to the sanctuary after escaping Paynn. While Kitt and Parmon cheer, Lance gets a hug from his big brother.
36	* Episode 3 of season 2, "Faster than Fear". Artha and Lance agreeing that it wouldn't be right to leave Moordryd and Cain trapped in the Shadow Track.
37	* The official forming of the Penn Stables Racing Crew at the end of "Leap of Lorius". Artha's face when he sees them all showing off the Penn Stables symbols they put on their outfits, especially after they tell him it was Parm's idea, really brings home their status as FireForgedFriends.
38	* Lance and Moordryd from the episode "The Wraith Booster". Lance pretty much sums it up when he tells Moordryd "I knew it! You're not so bad."
39	** Turned into a CMOF when Moordryd oddly seemed offended by the statement (is he really trying that hard to be a CardCarryingVillain?).
40	** And then Lance running damage control by complimenting Moordryd's hair.
41	--> '''Lance:''' [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments And... and you have, Drac hair?]]
42	--> '''Moordryd:''' ...[[NotSoAboveItAll It takes a lot of gel]].
43	** After the crisis is over, Moordryd checking on Lance to see if he's okay. A moment later, Artha and Lance are happily reunited.
44	* A minor thing episode 6 of season 2, "Artha the Drac". All of the racers, including [[WouldntHurtAChild Moordyrd]] trying to avoid the child who had wondered onto the racetrack.
45	* Episode 7 of season 2 "Prophet's Motive", Wulf (of all people) taking the time to warn Artha and Parm about the dangerous turn on the track they were about to race on. Later, he even goes out of his way to save Artha and Beau, twice.
46	** Artha being able to convince at least one of the Orange Dragon's that Dragon's and humans can coexist.
47	* During the showdown between the [=DownCity=] racing crews in "The Mechanist". Several of the crew leaders, including Phistus, Khatah and Marianis all choose to stand with the Dragon Booster. Also counts as an awesome moment.
48	--> '''Phistus:''' We are ''not'' here to take the horn! We are here to ''protect'' it.
49	* When Moordryd revealed his identity as the Shadow Booster to Cain in "Cain's Mutiny". It was nice to see that his friendship with Cain was more important to Moordryd than personal power.
50	** Moordryd's behavior throughout the episode was nice to see actually. First, he took the risk of going Shadow Booster in order to save Cain and his crew. Second, Moordryd actually ''did'' show up for Cain's party. He just showed up a little late.
51	** Also, despite it being ''Cain's'' party it was ''Moordryd's'' favorite cake that was made, which Moordryd even comments on. Aww.
52	* Moordryd in the final episode, telling his father to stop attacking Artha with Wraiths since Artha's already injured so Moordryd can easily win anyway. He certainly sounds a bit worried about Artha's injury (which admittedly, he caused).
