Isabel||Water Dragon||Female||90||M: Terra,Lira,Dawn

Isabel looked at Terra as she moved and noticed she was heading in the direction of another dragon. She ran up to Terra but still kept her distance glaring at the air dragon. Isabel noticed another women who was what she guessed to be Terra's sister. Her instincts were saying not to let Terra be close to the air dragon. She turned whipping her tail at the air dragon obviously saying back up.

Isabel didn't like the fact that she might end up being with an air dragon for most of the year. She didn't like it because of some history with them. Considering the fact the female dragon was an air one but also Terra's sister's dragon didn't help. Isabel turned to face the air dragon growling. She thought I will spray if needed.

Isabel wasn't one to be so territorial so she didn't know what was wrong. She looked the female air dragon in the eye before she lashed out. Isabel thought What is wrong with me!? She sighed internally before she glared at the air dragon but this time in a apologetic way because she didn't know what the behavior was about. Isabel would have an sorry expression if it wasn't for the instincts she was having.

Dan | Fire Dragon | 100 | Male | M: Roxanne, Mircea, Valine (ind)

“What.”

Dan cocked his head slightly to the left by his human’s only word. Could she not say anything else? What was wrong? Did she not like the gift? Maybe he should’ve saved some of Momma’s lizard for her. She might’ve liked that better. To his relief, Roxanne continued to speak. This time a sentence. Oh good, she could talk more and she liked the compass! He couldn’t help but smile when she thanked him for his gift. She was nice and courteous. She then gave him a thin sliver of metal. Dan hadn’t noticed Roxanne’s dagger. It was sort of like a needle to him, or a bit of clipped toenail. It was sort of cute even if he wasn’t too sure what it was or what it did. Because it was a gift from his human, he accepted it gladly. It seemed like it was going perfectly! Then she opened her mouth and spoke words that crushed his excited spirit.

“Are you going to burn me?”

He recognized a sharp, stinky scent that reminded him of a marsh mixed with a puddle of dead worms. It was the smell of fear. He had scared his human. That was not okay. He stared at her and met her terrified eyes. Her body language reminded him of those poor, innocent lizards before he devoured them. Tears welled up in his eyes and threatened to drip down his cheeks. Both because he regretted all of those lizards and because this day was not going as well as he hoped it would. His human, although polite and generous, trembled in his presence. What would Momma say? She’d tell him to suck it up and answer the poor girl’s question. So he did. He lifted one of his great paw-shaped feet and wiped away the salty pools in his eyes. He cleared his throat once so that he could talk clearly. Although this seems unnecessary since he communicated to her through his mind, it was actually not. Telepathy was just like talking. The conditions of his body affected the sound of his voice in her mind. At least it did for him. He wasn't sure how it worked for others.

“No,” there was a slight tremor, “I will not burn you. I will never burn you. That is not right. Momma didn’t raise a mean dragon, well, except for Todd. Todd’s mean.” He realized that that was not the his point and he was going down a lizard trail. “But I’m not Todd! I’m Dan. Dan the dragon, Dan your dragon and I would die for you. Even if I was Todd, I still couldn’t do anything. I haven’t eaten in days. See,” he pointed to his dull scales. “If I was running hot they’d be shiny and bright.”

He smiled nervously again. He hoped that his words didn’t come off too shaking. He waited for her to answer and sat down on his haunches like a loyal dog would. Then a small voice entered his mind. He rather liked it. His smile grew broader. She wanted him to help pick it up.

“Of course! Yes!”

His tail was up and wagging again. His human talked to him! His human was starting to like him! His human was the best. He just knew it. Then this other human popped up out of nowhere. Brown hair whose do looked like it took hours to finish, fancy nancy clothes, and gold make up. Dan actually liked the bit of gold, it reminded him of his own gold undertones. The creature was upset. Not how his lovely rider had been, but this one was angry and defensive. Gut me! He might kill me! He must be a bad human. You shouldn’t kill unless you need food or something has attacked you. I have not attacked anyone.

“You are a bad human.” He told Mircea. “Please go away.”

Then an earth dragon emerged right behind the little, angry, bad human. Very curious. He hadn’t seen an earth dragon in a while. Maybe the earth dragon’s human was this one. Maybe they’ll teach him some manners. He was glad that his rider was good. Or at least he was pretty sure she was good. He watched as the boy tried to pick up the compass.

The angry human then turned back to talk to him. He apologized and explained that he and Roxanne were best friends. Dan snorted. He didn’t like that his good human was friends with a bad human. However, this one seemed truly sorry. The dragon searched in his eyes to see if there was any trace of lies. He couldn’t see anything, but he was still suspicious. He looked back at his rider.

“Can a bad human later be a good human?” He asked her.

He trusted her judgement because she was his human and she was also the angry human’s friend. He knew that the boy was struggling with the weight of the compass and decided to take it from him, because it was Roxanne’s after all, but it was pitiful to watch Mircea. Gently, he plucked the compass from Mircea’s hold and put it in the same hand where his tiny dagger was.

“I can hold it.”

Lira Wild-Heart||Female||16||Rider||M: Dawn, Terra, Isabel, Vasuki + Calemira (ind)

Lira looked at her sister in shock at how harsh she sounded towards the water dragon. Lira sighed when she calmed down and introuduced her dragon whose name is Isabel. She stood up shaing the dirt from her dress. She got the leaves out of her hair while she was waiting. Lira had let her hair down before leaving the house in the morning.

Lira looked at Dawn and then said "Terra this is Dawn my dragon and Dawn this is my sister Terra with her dragon." She looked to Terra and said "Sorry about leaving you home i was gonna come back after i ate but i thought i was late but was early." She had a experssion only her sister could read for many reasons. One reason being Dawn and Isabel.

She jumped pouncing on her sister when she noticed the fog. Lira was curious about the fog but didn't think much of it. As she had her sister pinned down now right next to Isabel. Lira giggled slightly before getting up. She reached out a hand to help her sister up.

⸻「 Rinecess 」⸻

Female || Rider || 18 Years || Mentions: Calemira, Vasuki { ind. } Other Riders { ind. }

⸻

Glancing around, Rin sighed in disappointment. Not that she was jealous or anything of the other riders, whether they had a dragon, no.

She was more bored than anything.

Jesus fucking christ. What am I even doing here? Nothing is even happening.

Rolling her eyes, the young woman yawned plainly, snapping her knuckles accordingly after she closed her lips. However, she began to think of what it would be like to have her own dragon, someone who'd obey her, and trust her.. for whom she was or whom they thought she was. Well- don't Dragons what, read minds or something? Her dragon would most likely know everything thats going on in her head... right? Shit. She should have paid more attention to her studies- crap.

What would her dragon do if the creature knew her antics and schemes against others- would it rebel against her? Would it kill her? Wait... can dragon's kill their own riders? Or would they harm them? To knock some sense into them. Or maybe they'd burn their riders just like an apple crisp pie... oo that actually sounded good right now.

Maybe, after all of this, she'd get someone to make herself some Apple Pie. Yes. Sounds like a lovely plan!

The corner of Rin's lip curled upwards in a crooked smile, thinking to herself, about pie and if dragons could commit homicide towards their riders. So many questions.. now she knew why studies were more important. Ugh.

Resting her palm on the smooth, grey rock, her fingers rolling down the edges of the boulder, as far as she could go without falling idiotically. The rough texture was smooth, yet rough, warm but cool. It felt perfect, like a pillow. Almost. Besides the fact you couldn't throw yourself into it, unless you felt like breaking your skull.. or nose, depending on how you'd throw yourself into a pillow-like boulder. Now that she really thought about it- comparing a pillow to a boulder texture wise was not the smartest of comparisons.

Around her, she heard shouts, cries of either crybabies or overexcited goodie twoshoes. It was plainly annoying.

"Can you guys not sh-" as she spoke, she looked upwards, only to have her eye caught by a faint, quite bland light above. Then, it grew slightly brighter, as if it were a moving object coming towards her- or.. the clearing rather.

Yes, it was rather plain and bland looking light, as if you were looking at a crummy lampost. But it was quite, attracting. Rin had the urge to get up from her place on the boulder suddenly, and investigate the strange light. Her body began to slide down the boulder softly, her hands dragging behind her, all up until her feet reached the ground. She leaned against the boulder with her hand, continuing to stare off into the distance towards the light.

One being too far away it seemed, she couldn't exactly tell what it was.

The side of his lips curled up in a pleased grin, revealing a set of jagged teeth. Behind the trees, his white, pupiless eyes stared out at the crowd as his jaw had unclenched, allowing dark smoke to leak from his mouth. On it seeped, twisting through the forest until it pushed itself out into the valley.

"Too much?" He had asked Mira, neck curling so that his head faced her own. Upon his back she lay, a feeling that he had grown used to. There was clear amusement interlaced in his voice, his throat rumbling with mirth.

"That one is mine," he spoke to Mira, raising a singular claw and directing it towards the girl. "And yours?" He had briefly acknowledged his human, at least, he believed that it was her. A girl. No older than eighteen, if he recalled how human years worked. Perhaps younger, though truly, Vasuki wasn't entirely sure. Regardless, she was suitable enough, with dark hair to match his own colouring. It was she who he felt a pull towards, and if not her, then somebody within his vicinity. Though he was almost certain that his initial answer was correct.

His words had not lasted long, for the moment Mira had emitted her radiant glow, Vasuki's breath had only increased it's thickness and speed. Now, it encircled them as it ran from his widened nostrils and agape mouth. Like thick fog it ran, appearing more like liquid than anything else. He had allowed it to run moments longer before advancing. It was not a leisurely speed he had embarked on, but a rapid one. He had shot forward, his movements weaving like a snake. With his body sunken to the ground and his head low, he weaved through the fog, only to pause in the middle of the valley.

The only thing anybody could see among the thick fog was their silhouettes due to Mira's glow. Behind the smoke, Vasuki had stood onto his hind legs, his wings expanding. He had begun to flap them, clearing away the fog before falling onto all fours once more, the ground around him vibrating. His wings had remained open before slowly falling to his side, revealing the form of Mira upon his back.

Was he doing too much? Possibly.

He had stood there for a brief moment, his head assessing the crowd before his eyes flickered onto the girl. Tongue flickering from his mouth, his body lowered, allowing Mira to step off of him rather than climb or jump. "Let's be quick.. I shall meet you afterwords." There was an uneasiness in his tone having been surrounded by so many humans. He did not fear them, but he feared certain ones. The same ones who had stolen his horn and maimed his face. More than anything, he feared for Mira. "I will be near." He assured her, or perhaps himself. He wasn't entirely certain. "Good luck," he had added on as he watched her, and he would, even throughout the duration of the meeting.

He had waited for Mira to advance first so that he could note the direction she went in dare anything transpire. He would watch until she approached her human, to which his head finally snapped forward once more. He was right, the girl was his. So, eyes upon the girl, his human, Vasuki begun to move. Once more, it was no slow walk, but a swift one. He had sprinted at full force, slithering through the crowd and knocking half of them onto their backs. During the process, he had snapped at the humans, teeth clicking together as he hissed at them in warning. Until, at last, he stopped, towering over her.

Tails rattling behind him, his neck curled around the girl abruptly. Once. Twice. Like a snake, until he had her fully trapped.

Hello, little girl.

Hissing his words out, his throat rumbled, as if he were laughing.

Such a small, small thing you are, but you'll do.

The right side of his face halted before her own, his eye staring at her. It flickered up and down, like a reptile before blinking, a transparent eyelid covering his white eye.

You may call me Vasuki. What did they name you..? No matter, I bring a gift.

All at once, he untwisted his neck so that he may present to her his gift. A single amethyst. Purple, like him, and a rare type. Between his claws it rested, to which he offered it to her. Carefully, he watched her, observing her reaction. She would like it, she must. He had handpicked it from his very own collection.

We shall have so very much fun together, you and I.
