Storms, Sea sickness and Cold shoulders

[Nysat & Whirlwind]

From what Nysat knew about the weather, which admittedly was very little, this was the season where the storms were at their least frequent and the weather was easy on travelers. He wasn't aware that so far into the middle of nowhere the "peaceful" time for the seas were also vastly unpredictable. Fog rolled in on without warning, dark clouds appeared within seconds, and waves rolled high into the air like Aegir's hand itself was flailing for anything within reach.

But the young explorer managed well, in his own eyes. He was quick to get Whirlwind above the clouds before the rain poured down on them, he relied on the dragon's own senses and his compass to guide them through the torturous fog so they wouldn't veer too far off course, and the waves... tested how fast they could fly out of their reach. But in all, the main thing to note is that he was getting lucky. He would attest the lack of actual trouble to skill, but it was really luck and Whirlwind's uncanny ability to find land.

So eventually, Nysat's luck ran out when he flew into a curtain of fog so thick he could barely see his hand in front of his own face. It was too late to go back when he heard the rolling thunder around him, and Whirlwind's wings were already too heavy to fly any higher than they already were. When the downpour came, they had no choice but to swim along until they hit some form of land.

By the time the fog let up Nysat was soaked through his furs and the air was freezing him down to the bone. He had nearly taken the scarf off his head when he realized water would get through his mask without it. He and Whirlwind both knew they needed to find land soon.

[Fellicya Strongmouth]

Slim trembling fingers quickly fumbled with Blue laces to undo a Brown armor. Fellicya was way too excited to meet her ocean friends again, it made the task of stripping her whole armor off until she only wore her Umber pants and a grass Green lose shirt. Three days ago she had landed on the beach this island where she met a curious Seashocker, it took great effort on her part to finally be able to approach it but after a couple of hours they easily became friends and today she decided to go practice swiming at their side. Or more like on top of them but whatever. Last time they almost left her in the middle of the sea because she had let go of the head she was clinging to so today she would try to stick to them with a rope. This should be fun.

She cursed under her breath, taking her boots off before tying her hair into a high ponytail, waving at her dragon good by before running away toward the beach. Of course she couldn't take SwiftBite and BlazingHeart with her, the time was covered and the air cold so even if they did want to come it would be too dangerous, and unfair let's face it, to let them hover above her while she did trick on another dragon's back. Still the bad weather didn't manage to discourage her, it was her first time taming a Tidal Class dragon and she wasn't about to slow down for anything.

When she finally got there she placed her fingers between her lips, whistling loudly to attract the dragon. It didn't take more than three second for the dragon to jump high above the water, not too far away from her, and come to get her. They had been waiting. "Hey Shocky, hello Schoker." She stepped into the freezing water, wincing lightly and rethinking her action. Bending down she scooped up some of the water to splash herself a little as she approached the two headed dragon, scratching their chins and installing herself on their back. "Just a sec, I need to-... Aha! There!" They both glanced at her as she tied the rope around their neck and then around her right fist. "Now you can't get rid of me like yesterday, huh?" The dragons gurgled something close to a snicker before backing slowly into the water.

They had fun for some times, bouncing over the water at high speed, going under the surface to see how long she could stay without suffocating. Just enjoying their time together and testing how they were 'flying' in the ocean. They just came out from a dive underwater when she decided it was time for a small pause. She sat on the dragon's back while pushing strands of hair and water back on her head. "Well that was nice, heh boys?" The dragons crooned in agreement, one of the head splashing her with water again. "Haha, that's what I thought...Wait..." Squinting, Fellicya scanned the horizon, thinking the ocean's water was messing with her sight but no, there actually was a dragon in the water. One of a kind she hadn't seen yet. "Well that's interesting. Shocky, Shocker, let's go." The dragon slowly dived back under the water, swimming to the dragon in question.

They swam under it before slowly going back up a few meters away from it. In case it was hurt thus dangerous. Fellicya turned around so she could sit backward on the Seashocker's back, watching the dragon closely. "Hey there beautiful, you don't look like the type of dragon to go for a swim in the middle of a storm, what are you doing h-...Oh." She hadn't noticed the dragon's rider at first. Well fuck. Blue eyes widened in surprise and chock before she shook her head and stood atop Shocky and Shocker's back, nodding at the rider while holding the dragon's rope in both hand. "Hey, are you lost?" She tilted her head to the side, he could only be, that or he was incredibly dumb and didn't care for his dragon's well being. "I know an island that's pretty close and your dragon and yourself will be safe while the storm comes by." A smirk tugged at the corner of her lips as she crossed her arms, never letting go of the rope at any moment. " It's really a shame you didn't come sooner, the water is incredibly good when it's sunny..."

Of course she was joking, even when the sun shone high in the sky the water was cold as fuck for any warm blooded creature. Human or dragon.

[Nysat & Whirlwind]

It was at this point where Nysat was letting Whirlwind guide them instead of trying to steer them in any set direction. His hands were so numb from the cold he was pretty sure one rough wave would snatch his compass or just knock it out of his hands... and the she-dragon's swimming had become less of a smooth glide and more like a rocking Kayak. It was probably only Whirlwind's constant threats (And the mask over his face) that kept him from vomiting while he laid across her back and neck.

"I'm not sparing you any pity just because you let yourself get sick."

"I hate the sea..." He couldn't say much more than that because he was sure he wouldn't be able to control whatever flew out of his mouth if he did, but on the inside, he's groaning about how unkind the she-dragon was being.

But of course, she wasn't sparing him any pity, she was the one swimming in these freezing waters because he was so sure they wouldn't run into any crazy weather while flying low enough to catch fish on the way to the next island. And he was sure the map of the area he bought was accurate enough so they wouldn't get lost in the fog. So as far as she's concerned, if her feathers and scales have to get assaulted by salt water for hours he can deal with a little bit of cold rain and an upset stomach.

And she told him as much.

Then they lapsed into a silence of mutual bitterness towards the ocean and all that enjoyed it. A little while later and something moving came into view. Whirlwind was just about to turn away from it when Nysat pointed out that was a person. As they got closer, Nysat and Whirlwind saw how she was dressed in these waters and decided that was not a sane person and were just about to turn away again when she started speaking. The promise of land made Whirlwind swim towards her much faster than before while also noting the little compliment, "At least that insane human has some taste." Nysat's response was a grunt towards both the dragon and the girl's question. "She probably didn't hear that."

Another grunt, "I'm sure wherever she's taking us is on the map." by now they should have gotten close enough so the stranger could hear that the masked rider wasn't speaking in any recognizable human tongue, but the longwing still responded. He also wasn't planning on speaking actual words because he was sure opening his mouth too much would end in the contents of his stomach being ejected, which was the same reason he didn't sit up when he raised his hand towards the girl, then brought the tips of his fingers to his chest in an old gesture of appreciation he learned some time back.

Then he realized she probably wouldn't recognize it, so far away from the tribes that actually used them, so he decided he'll thank her properly in common tongue after they were on solid land.

[Fellicya Strongmouth]

Fellicya didn't know why but she felt incredibly insulted for some reason. After years of living with dragon she had learned to understand their thoughts by reading their gestures, stences and the emotions carried into the noises they made. This perticular dragon seemed to be uncomfortable with her. Really, she couldn't place her finger on it but it really seemed like it might, just might, have been a wee bit wary to approach her.


The thing was, where she couldn't understand the language they spoke, Shocky and Shocker had absolutely no problem with that. They start growling threateningly, slowly spinning in the water so they could face the two others. "Watch your mouth you two! Just because our Fellicya cannot speak dragonese doesn't mean we don't." Sparks of anger started appearing here and there on the dragon's smooth scales, a light buzzing echoing from deep within their throat as the elictricity was slowly trigered by their anger. The Lemon eyes squinted as the second head spit his threats as well. "And we're not just gonna stand there listening to you insult her!"

Shocky and Shocker started ondulating their body in an display of threat but also anger, luckily enough they hadn't been given the time to let their frustration and quick temper raise evolve into a real attack for Fellicya had kneeled on them once more, gently patting their neck to calm them down. "Hey, hey hey, calm down boys. What's up with you? You were fine just a sec ago." She stared at the dragons questioningly before redirecting her attention toward the man and his dragon. "I'm sorry, I only tamed them a couple of days ago but they won't hurt you I swear... at least I hope so." She prefered to mumble this part under her breath not to worry them. "Watch out or we'll electrocute you both without a second thought." Shocky huffed, pushing his snout in the air in pure pride. A gentle pap to the Seashocker's neckline from Fellicya and they started spinning slowly once more, ready to swim toward the island when given the real signal.


She frowned lightly at the gesture. She knew the meaning of it, her tribe met another one that used those sign frequently. "Ugh- Wait I got this." Her frown tensed as she rubbed two fingers on her temp. Really, thinking about her tribe right now wasn't a thing she wanted to do. Actually thinking of her tribe in general was just a giant no, no. Suddenly it came back to her and she snapped her fingers as her grin stretched. "Right, that meant 'thanks' right? Well you're welcome." She started untying the roap from around her, going to stand up, easily balancing her as she approached the taile of the Seashocker. "Do you want us to drag you? Shocky and Shocker will go at quite a speed and it might be for the best seeing as... Your dragon isn't really made to swim in water..." Fellicya waited a bit for an answer before remembering that the rider proabbly had a reason not to answer to her.


She glanced nervously between him and his dragon's head before just approaching the roap to let the dragon decide herself wether she wanted help or not.

[Nysat & Whirlwind]

The two westerns had slightly different reactions to the Seashocker's reaction to them. While Nysat thought that of all the things, a sea dragon should see a barely dressed human in freezing waters was not normal, Whirlwind's already shortened temper led to more aggressive behavior in response to the threats. The longwing's eyes narrowed as her lips curled into a snarl, "Apologies that you Fellicya doesn't follow the standard of what's-"

Whirlwind's rider started stroking her neck to abate her mounting animosity before she said anything to antagonize the electric dragon, "Our standard of normal. Where we come from, no one goes into waters anywhere near as cold as these..." Thankfully this woman can read her dragon's temperament before things escalated. "We didn't mean to offend you two." the longwing did nothing more than confirm the sentiment through relaxing her face back into its previous irritated look. She could see the value in not making the sea dragon electrocute them both in the middle of an ocean.

In response to the woman, Fellicya, Nysat waved off the apology and slumped back over his dragon's neck. He's been around enough riders to know how dragons get when you insult or threaten something they see as theirs. But he was honestly surprised she knew what the sign meant. Maybe it was a common thing around these islands as well, or she's run into enough stragglers before to know the meaning.

"Do you want us to drag you? Shocky and Shocker will go at quite a speed and it might be for the best seeing as... Your dragon isn't really made to swim in water..."

"Anything to get us on dry land sooner..." The longwing didn't hesitate to push her head into the loop. She didn't look exactly thrilled about it, though.

"Huh, normally you'd be offended by the idea of being lead around like a common roman pack horse." There was a bit of amusement in the young man's tone.

"I'm still willing push you off my back." Her tail raised and splashed into the water with enough force to say she wasn't in the mood to play any of his games.

"Okay, calm down, I'll be good." His arms went back into their earlier self-hugging position for warmth while Whirlwind's eyes looked back and forth between the Seashocker and their human impatiently.

[Fellicya Strongmouth]

Fellicya squinted suspiciously at what seemed to be an exchange between the dragon and teh rider but finally shook her head, thinking it might have been the salty water of the sea messing with her mind. She gave a gentle pat to the soaked neck of the western dragon, looking up at her with empathy in her eyes. "Poor girl... It's such a shame, I would have loved to see how you looked dry. You're already so elegant." She offered a warm smile to the dragon before baking away to sit back on the Sea Shocker's back. "It'll be a quick ride you'll se."



The Red head patted gently the dragon's neck and they started swimming slowly and steadily, knowing she wasn't done talking yet. "Also, when we get back to the island, if you're dragon is okay with it of course, she can stay close to my own dragon. BlazingHeart's body naturally emit a large amount of heat and that might help her dry up and feel a bit more comfortable." She didn't specify that BlazingHeart was a Typhoomerang, forgetting to when the adrenaline of swimming alongside with wild dragons went away, leaving her fully feeling the after effect of freezing water on the human body.



Shocky and Shocker were still tense, ready to attack at any wrong comment from the other dragon. Being predators it was just normal for them to battle other being when feeling insulted, especially since they had quite a pride too.



A low growl had incrased from both of the dragon's throat but the soothing gesture of their rider helped them act more maturely. More maturely meaning not sending a wave of electricity in the water but instead acting more logically.



They settled with huffing in disdain before explaining why their human wasn't crazy. "She does only because we took her to visit the sea with us, it's just logic not to go fully dressed into water." He rolled his eyes before the second head finished his sentence. "We'll have you know that she's surprisingly good at keeping up with us, sea dragons." Both heads raised their chins in pride, almost gloating about their new human friend's admirable behavior. "Also the only reason why she's still here is because she was searching the sea for people in danger, knowing fully that a storm is approaching and sailors might get caught in it. And what do you know!" The tone of the dragon suddenly deepened, more cuting and vicious than before. "The crazy woman was right to look for people in need after all." They said it in such a way the innocent word sounded like the most insulting insult one could come up with.

After this both dragon slightly turned their head to the side to glare for a second at the to they were dragging before turning their attention away from the pair.



"Okay, hold on tight we're going." She gave a small slap to the Sea Shocker's back, making them growl in disapproval before they suddenly swam at their full speed, going under and back above water again and again until it was a pattern.



It took them around ten minutes to finally get to the island. When they did Fellicya jumped off them, immediatly untying the rope from around their neck and then from around the other dragon's neck. "Well here we are." She turned around to see the two headed dragon waiting for her. "N-Nice job guys, I'll see you later okay?" Shocker and Shocky pushed their snouts against her as she embraced each one of the heads. Kissing them both goodbye.



The dragons retreated into the ocean, but not without a last suspicious glare toward the strangers.

When they were finally gone Fellicya turned back to her new 'guests', grinning brightly at them even thought her teeth were clacking together by now. "W-welp, follow me I already ha-ave a camp not f-far f-fr-rom here, w-we'll b-be warm and s-safe." She rubbed her arms, trying to warm herself up a little while fighting down the shivers. "W-well this was a mistake..." She mumbled to herself. She should have taken BlazingHeart or even SwiftBite with her. It would have been faster and warmer. Now she was just stuck walking back to the camp and even after knowing it wasn't far it still felt like it would take ages to get there.



"O-Oh! By the way I to-totally forgot to i-in-intro..." She was going to get it right, damn it. "Introduce! Introduce myself. The name's-is Fellicya. Terror of the seas, master of dragons and soon most beautiful statue of meat and ice the world will have ever known." She chuckled at her own stupid introduction, still feeling pretty proud for not stuttering WHILE making a fool of herself.

[Nysat & Whirlwind]

Whirlwind's irritated glare lightened slightly at the young woman's complements. "So maybe she isn't that bad." even while partially submerged she managed to raise herself enough to display her pride. Meanwhile Nysat rolled his eyes so hard his mask nearly flew off, "I also wouldn't mind meeting that other companion of hers."

Her rider didn't say anything against the idea. Mainly because the thought of a nice, warm, dry camp was extremely appealing right now. And even if he was against it, Whirlwind already made up her mind about where they were headed so there wouldn't be much of a point arguing against. Another thing she already made up her mind about was the Sea Shocker.

Rather than respond to the two, Nysat quickly and subtly reminded his dragon that water conducts electricity and the two headed braggarts could drown them both easily at this moment.

Once they started moving again, the sea sick rider partially curled up around his dragon's neck while Whirlwind swam to keep up enough so she wasn't being dragged by her neck and help get them to land sooner. Once they all reached the sandy shore the she-dragon ran onto it gratefully, shaking her large, feathery wings to allow all the excess water to escape without opening them fully. She moved further away from the water once she was untied "Thank you." was all the Seashocker was going to get.

Nysat on the other hand slid off his dragon's back while simultaneously taking off his mask once they were clear of the waves. Then proceeded to vomit onto the sand for roughly two minutes before sitting up on his knees and clutching his stomach as his body shook from the cold like a newborn chihuahua. "Th-th-tha-thanks f-for h-help-ng u-us, F-Fellicya."

Before he could introduce himself, Whirlwind - her patience non-existent - grabbed Nysat by the back of his vest with her teeth and wrapped her tail around Fellicya to sit the small woman onto her back, "Why am I being carried like this?"

"Because this human knows the way to some place dry and I refuse to wait for the both of you to finish freezing to death."

"That doesn't answer..." He's too cold to bother with dragon logic now, "Sh-she wants you t-to lead us to your c-camp." Normally he'd be a little more embarrassed about hanging like a doll in Whirlwin'd teeth. He's doesn't care enough for that right now, he wants to get warm too. Maybe sleep a little.

Fellicya would see she was sat on a saddle that actually could have held the two of them if it weren't for a large satchel behind her that was attached to it.

[Fellicya Strongmouth]

When the man spilled the content of his stomach on the sand Fellicya nearly let a burst of laughter slip from between her lips. She had to hold her own stomach as the muffled giggles forced her to bite on her lips so she wouldn't openly laugh at the other's mysery. He was still a stranger and in a very poor state, she didn't know how he would react to being mocked while still suffering. She would just have to wait later, when they were both warm and safe, to actually tease him.

It took the girl a couple of seconds to calm down but when she was sure she had full control over her body's reactions she approached the stranger, laying a hand on his back to rub it soothingly. "D-d-d-don't mention it-t, it w-was my puh-puh-pleasure." Her blue lips stertched into a small encouraging grin that was accompanied by chattering teeth making the full picture pretty pitiful and yet 'cute', in child-like way, from a certain angle.

If she had been missing a front teeth while wearing pig tails the children portrait would have been complet.


Blue eyes widened in surprise as Fellicya felt something smooth and cold wrap around her middle section. She raised her arms with a small squeak and quickly glanced at the tail that was now shielding her humid skin from the cold wind before looking back up at the dragon to whom it belonged. "H-hi?" She felt her heart race in her chest as it pulled her onto it's back. "Wow, o~kay?"

Hesitantly, she lowered her hands so they could caress gently the dragon's shoulder. It was all so awesome she couldn't believe that just after meeting and taming a Sea Shocker she could meet a whole new species and actually ride one after spending no more than a minute with it.

After the chock of actually being carried by this huge dragon she slightly leaned on the side so she could see the stranger once more, hands flying to muffle her snorted giggles once more.
So that's what she looked like when her Typhoomerang carried her. Lame.

With traces of her amusement still lingering in her voice she tried questionning the rider about his dragon's behavior. "I-is... Is this l-like... No-Normal?"


"Sh-she wants you t-to lead us to your c-camp."


Hearing the answer to why the dragon was behaving in such a 'friendly' way made Fellicya's shoulders drop, just like her excitement. "O-Oh... I-I see..." But nonetheless she did notice that the beast had to be clever if it actually had thought about the whole thing to start with. A small smile came back to her lips as she leaned on the dragon neck to point a small hidden pass between the trees and bushes. "Thi-is way. J-ju-ust follow the pa-path and it'll li-lead us to the foot of a cuh-cliff, then I'll have to find w-where's the ent-trance to my camp b-but this sh-shou-shouldn't be a prob-blem." Or she would just call one of her dragons to show her the way.

Now they just needed to get to her camp and all would be good. She just hoped that there still was a camp and that BlazingHeart and SwiftBite hadn't found a reason X or Y to wreck the place.

She pulled off of the dragon's neck so she wouldn't put too much weight on it, or just offend the beast. No matter how much she wanted to get to be friendly-friendly with it she was a stranger as well and knew nothing about it, just like it knew nothing about her.

Well...
Almost nothing.


The silence that started along with their journey to her shelter was too much for her after no less than eight minutes, wich was a new record for her. She just needed to talk, distract herself from the cold that felt like small needles stinging her all over. "S-so... I see yo-your dragon and yu-yours-self look pretty c-close too. You tw-wo must have be-en together for qu-quite some time." She smiled, making small talk as she shown the dragon another direction. "Oh! B-By the way, I don't thi-ink I got your n-names right." Of course he hadn't told her, she was just joking about it, trying to test how far she could go when 'joking'.


She barely even gave him the time to answer though, after giving a quick glance at her surrounding she noticed the dirty White of the marble cliff from between the trees and the promise of a warm place with food and dry clothes made her start to bounce and giggle in glee. "W-wait! Wait, wait! I think we're here!" She started pushing herself off the dragon, jumping of its back before landing wobbly but on her two feets. "Thank Thor!"

She immediatly dashed through the trees, placing two fingers in her mouth to she whistled loudly, ignoring the small drops of water that crashed on her face from the light drizzle that would be soon followed by a real storm, but right now she paid it absolutely no mind.

Her whistle was soon followed by a booming roar she knew far too well and answered with enthusiasm. "Over here!!" Immediatly after that the trees began to rustle and from between them arised the huge Typhoomerang.

"B-Blazy!! Thor am I glad to see you big butt!!" Fellicya pounced on her dragon as they ran toward each other, wrapping shaking arms around her neck while the dragon pulled her closer with the flat part of her two claws. BlazingHeart crooned tenderly at her as they both pulled back but only far enough to see each other's eyes and Fellicya awed in answer, scratching each side of her jaw. "I love you too girl!"

It didn't take long for the girl to sigh in appreciation as she remembered how cold she had been a couple of minutes ago. BlazingHeart too seemed to notice her discomfort and abnormal body temperature, but being used to the young one's carlessness she only started incrasing her own body temperature so that the air all around the dragon would start warming up. "Bla~aze." Fellicya stepped foreward until she could be fully hugging the Typhoomerang's hips and middle section, enjoying the heat directly from the source. "...you're so warm..." Indeed she was, Fellicya was feeling so comfortable that she almost forgot about her two guests. Luckily, or not, BlazingHeart made sure to make their presence know.

She started spreading her wings in a display of threat, a low rumble starting in her chest not loud enough to be a threat but enough to be a warning. She was immediatly scolded with a small slap to the belly. "Stop that. Those are friends, I found them in the sea and you, miss-" She said with a grin, tapping a finger on the hard stomac. "-are going to help them warm up too." The Typhoomerang didn't question her rider, only folding her wings back to her body as she noded at the other dragon. "I won't apologies for the way I acted because I didn't know if you were a threat or not, but thankfuly you are not." There was a hidded threat in her words. It was obvious she was still suspicious, taking any huge dragon as a potential threat, but despite her reluctantness she aknowledged them with a nod, the closest she could do to a 'welcome', before turning around and starting to head toward their camp. Fellicya grinned at her dragon, turning back to the other two to raise both thumbs up as she started following her dragon. "Come on, she's showing the way!"


They quickly found the entrance and penetrated (*snort*) the cave. The fact that it had contained two dragons, one being of quite the size while producing mass body heat, made the whole place feel incredibly warm and comfortable compared to the chilly air outside. The walls of the cave had been carved into a dome-shape like, the ceiling high enough to allow BlazingHeart to sit without needing to lower her head.

"Feels good to be home."

Fellicya lit up a small fire in the middle of the cave before turning around to her new guests while BlazingHeart stood close to the feather winged dragon.


As the girl turned a large form raised into the shadows of the cave, spreading it's wings slowly, ready to pounce on the poor unaware fool that had let her guard down.

[Nysat & Whirlwind]

As displeased about the situation as Nysat was, Whirlwind's breath along his upper back and head did wonders in warming him up faster. The brighter side of being carried was quickly eclipsed when he looked back to see the woman giggling at him from the saddle and felt his face flush from the embarrassment of this entire situation. To Fellicya's question, he kept his reddening face forward and told her the dragon's real intentions behind carrying her, and almost missed the small note of disappointment in her voice.

Whirlwind set off into a reasonably paced trot, partly because her limbs were still defrosting from their time in the ocean but mainly to keep her owner from being rocking wildly in the wind from her movements. More than a few times she had to tell the young man to stop pointing, just because he felt 'Emasculated' from being carried like a hatchling. "Humans." she had to roll her eyes at him.

Minutes into their journey for camp, and long enough for Nysat to get over his early embarrassment, he looked back towards the redhead when she began speaking again. He sent her a blue-lipped, sheepish grin as he remembered they didn't get through their introductions before the big dragon interrupted them "Sorry, my name i-" and now he was being interrupted again.

Whirlwind, slightly startled by Fellicya's sudden outburst, hesitated and stopped when the woman jumped off her back and ran into the trees before them. Figuring they must be close, she let Nysat down and began to follow the stranger at a walking pace, moving slow enough to allow Nysat to lift himself onto the saddle.

After a few minutes of watching the human and dragon reunite, and not really caring about the large dragon's hostility - for the most part - because of the warmth she gave off, they followed the pair to what looked like an abandoned Gronkle nest. Nysat sighed at the sudden heat the cave surrounded them all in, already shrugging off his drenched furs to reveal the soaked hardened leather covering his chest. "Feels great to be out of that weather."

As Nysat busied himself taking off his wet clothing, Whirlwind found a reasonably sized ledge and hopped onto it, hitting the rocky platform with her own fire before settling down on the warm spot. While she was going to behave around these strangers, that didn't mean she had to be friendly with them, leading her to take a disinterested posture towards the two dragons.

Her rider on the other hand wasn't aware of the second dragon lurking within the cave, and once he was down to his underwear and warm enough for his teeth to stop chattering together he looked towards the Fellicya as she finished lighting a fire, "Now that we're finally safe and warm, enough, my name's Ny- Look out!" He called a warning to the sudden figure positioned to pounce from the shadows. Whirlwind snort, wondering if the young man will ever be able to introduce himself without something interrupting him.

[Fellicya Strongmouth]

When done with the fire she had turned around to start gathering her dry and real clothes, next to BlazingHeart, making sure that nothing was missing. It was right after securing the fabrics in her arms that she remembered the stranger and his own soaked state. There may have been something laregd enough for him to wear if she looked through her stuff.

The Red head turned around, lips parting to ask if she could be of any more help, ask if he had something else to wear and if not offer him what little she had. But instead of the words leaving her mouth she finds them stuck in her throat.

Right before her eyes, discovered from head to toe except for a pair of underclothes, was standing one of the most well made living creature Thor had ever made in her opinion. Of course she had noticed that he had what was concidered 'handsome features' but she never really did took time to really 'look' at him. Or anyone else for that matter.

It was always dragons, dragons, dragons, fun. And now she kind of regretted it. What a time to be alive.

Finally snapping out of the staring, gaping mouth, brain dead state she tried to swallow her growing embarassement and voice her question once more. But it wasn't very effective. Instead of speaking she ended up spluttering and nearly choke on her words to some point.

Luckily for her the universe felt nice enough to keep her from embarassing herself any longer.

"...Look out!"

Hmm, yes she was. Wait no.

Her brows immediatly furrowed and she spun around, muscles tensing ready for anything. The warning allowed her to dodge the tackle but when the dragon immediatly followed his landing with another pounce she failed to avoid it. All the air was knocked out of her lungs and she started pushing her feets against the ScuttleClaws underbelly. "SwiftBite! Get off you fat- annoying- drolling BABY BUTT! You're killing me!"

It took her almost all her energy to push the dragon off and when she did managed it SwiftBite immediatly turned toward the other traveler. "Human?" He shifted his head in sharp movements, looking the 'human' over before he squawked louder and charged the man. "HUMAN!!"  His wings were spread in a 'menacive' stance, flapping erratically as he ran, but when he tackled the man to the ground he did nothing more than slobbeall over his face.

Fellicya was horrified at her dragon's behavior. But really, she shouldn't have. She really should just have expected thing to go this way if not worst. "SwiftBite, no! Stop it!" Rushing to their side she started trying to tug the dragon away by it's middle herself. "I'm so sorry, I forgot he was this... Affectionate?"

BlazingHeart who decided she wanted nothing to do with the ScuttleClaw's drool approached the Longwing. More than probably seeking some cultivated and well mannered company. She chuckled as she watched the two humans deal with the overflow of energy of the baby dragon. "I see that my younglings appreciate your rider's... presence."

She didn't really think twice when calling SwiftBite 'hers'. They were clearly from two different species and it might have confused the other dragon but she had just gotten used to claim the two other as 'hers'.
