“Daddy?” Leana gasped at Nithel’s tone, looking at him in shock.
“You don’t know anything about survival…” Nathair whispered, and thoughts raced behind his eyes.
You don’t know my story. Nithel’s heart pulsed with anger, but at his next thought it turned to pain. But I don’t know yours, either.

“You speak like your name, Snake!” Nithel shouted, his voice reverberating through the room like a real cry. Alessio couldn’t remember ever hearing him raise his voice, even in the worst parts of their adventures. His gentle manner made it all the more passionate and…terrifying. “True friendship gives without expecting to be given back. It does w…[Read more]

“Daddy?” Leana gasped, lifting her face and seeing a man kneeling before her. Wrinkles hovered around his eyes, and on his forehead. His golden hair had turned gray around the temples. Scars touched his arms. Are there more beneath your clothes? His muscles were still there, somehow firmer. His eyes… his beautiful eyes were so serious. They’d…[Read more]

Whoops, he’d pushed it too far, and this time he hadn’t even meant to. Well. Mostly. Nathair was testing boundaries that was how you figured people out, and figuring out people was how you stayed safe and got what you needed.
“Thank you. It is.” She stepped back, baring her teeth in a plastered smile. Then shifted to an order, maybe to fluster…[Read more]

Leana feels his arm tense at her question, before he gave a smile… too sweet… and patted her hand. You’re lying to me.
(With his smile.)But his answer cuts away whatever distrust started to form, she knew many men who put on false smiles… to hide their pain…“Because my parents were very bad and hated me, next question?”
I’m sorry. [Read more]

“Here.” The girl moved forward, getting herself cut in the process, and then she took his arm. Nathair watched her a little like a wary animal, not used to being touched. But she kept her word and gently plied the glass out of his skin. Tears were starting to well in her eyes as she worked.
“I am Leana daughter of Nithel.” She said, and added w…[Read more]

Ugh, everything hurt. It hurts. Where’s Alessio? What is this place? Owowowowowowowowow, Arsene was in pain. Please let something happen that would make him turn humanoid again.
He was wet. He hated being wet, why was he wet?
Ow… Just let him sleep… he was tired… he hurt everywhere…
Before Sherlock could rip that fake to pieces, he…[Read more]

Leana winced as Nathair stood, and held out her arms to keep him from moving, before pulling them back. “Here.” She stepped forward, wincing as she stepped on glass herself, and took one of his arms gently, avoiding the cuts where she could. She looked at the shards, and felt like her heart was being stung. But she started removing them, carefully…[Read more]

The girl smiled tiredly at Nathair, looking at him with a sort of confidence that almost made him uneasy. Complete trust? Not even Alessio had looked at him that way, even at his most trusting, that was just stupid.
“I…meant your cuts? I don’t know anything about this place-“
“Ah. Well. That would be nice too.” He said with an ironic smile, fumb…[Read more]

Nathair coughed, in a bloody heap by the broken cage, but thankfully that obnoxious ringing died out. He would’ve had it just fine but for some reason his powers hadn’t worked. Drugged? Sure that would explain an ability damp but there weren’t effective stops for ghouls and besides that he was a wizard.
He hadn’t felt this helplessness since t…[Read more]

Leana gasped and gagged as she fell from her strange cage. She’d found the lever, after the water drained away, after she’d given up on escape… but here she was. Hacking on a stone ground. Trembling with cold, from head to foot. I hate water. Actually, she was never really given the chance to love it.
She lifted her eyes, still wheezing and saw…[Read more]

Nathair blinks as the foxfire snaps up. Slowly the buttons melt. Well. Something happened. He knew waiting was a great idea!
Liquid blue pools on the floor around him. And suddenly something splashes in front of him. Uh, ok, invisible walls. That’s nice…
As everything trembles, Nathair tries smacking the invisible wall just to see if it’ll give…[Read more]

“Who said anything about being half human?” Arsene returned with his usual annoying smile. “As I said before, my father was a woodland elf, who left his country, and my mother was a lone dragon. I have no human heritage.”
Alessio blinked slowly, his eyes getting wider even while he was trying to maintain a neutral expression. Vaguely he remembe…[Read more]

Undeniably uncomfortable, Alessio started. “You’re…a weredraekon?”
Well, that’s a new one, although that could describe it.
“Or…dragons are intelligent in your world?”
He blinked slowly, opened his mouth to say something, hesitated, and then opened his mouth to speak anyway. This should be good.
“If you’re half dragon and half human…how do……[Read more]

Wait, what’s happening?!?!?!?!?
Before Sherlock could object, he had locked Nathair in the other room. Just lovely. If Nathair got out, Sherlock was certain he would kill him. Disobeying every command he gave, Sherlock’s body started walking to the throne.

Alright, group count. Arsene was 90% sure that Crorie was in the clothing or weapon section, Alessio was talking to John, and Leana… was asleep? Yes, she appeared to be asleep. Arsene should have been more observant of that. Oh, look there was a blanket right there. Taking the blanket, Arsene put it on Leana, before deciding to mess with Alessio…[Read more]

Nathair (contin.):
With age comes understanding. Or maybe just deceitfulness.
Day in and day out, Yasha come in. And for some reason Nathair went along with it – even enjoyed it. He just talked, told Nathair what he should be doing and that was annoying but…at least someone was talking to him instead of at him. It was endless babbling hon…[Read more]

“Shake enough flour into your bowl, to where it’s about three inches deep.” Leana said, fixedly glaring into her bowl. Alessio wasn’t sure what three inches was exactly but at this point he was too scared to ask so he peeked over her work and just imitated as best he could.
She’s irritated with them.
Which wasn’t the end of the world, he tr…[Read more]
