Sandbar: I DON’T NEED PREENING PRACTICE!
Yona: So Dragon no want preen?
Smolder: Well you’re welcome to give ‘em a massage if you’re bored. Muscles are muscles.
Yona: Yona gives best massages, Smolder will see!
Gallus: Isn’t preening a sort of…. intimate… thing though? Why would creatures openly ask to preen or be preened?
Silverstream: Wait… really? It’s a normal thing in Hippogriff culture! Everygriff helps each other! Flying is so important! Gotta look after ourselves! What about you ‘Celly?
Ocellus: Changeling wings are quite fragile but they can repair themselves very quickly! We’d still prefer not to damage them to begin with though.

It’s the cleaning and maintaining of wings by animals. Usually aligning feathers to allow them to fly without injury.
Next comic, Smolder’s in a full body cast. Calling it now.
Then Twilight assigned them a 50 page report on comparative preening behaviors between griffons and hippogriffs.
Maybe that’s why Sandy and Yona ended up together they both have the common interest of being wingless
OHHHHHHHHHHHH now it all makes sense
Read the dialogue in the last update. Poor Sandy doesn’t have wings. And doesn’t know crumby wings aren’t nice. He needs practice clearly!
