Thread: Dragons and Cats (DinoDroid & Mafdet)

RE Dragons and Cats She must have confused the young one about not wanting to play chase, or he was thinking of something else, as he stared at her for a moment before trotting over to sniff at her leg. Before she could ask what he was up to he bounded off, making her wonder what it was that he was up to. Did he leave because he was bored, or was he about to do something? Shortly after the answer came as the golden dragonling came bounding back, with the apparent herd of other dragonlings that were circling around an bent figure that hid beneath a cloak. Jazira stared at the figure and was startled when the golden dragonling bounded up to her and landed on her to scramble onto her back like he had a week ago. He really seemed to like clinging onto her from there, though she oddly didn't mind it that much. What really caused her to be surprised was when the cloaked figure raised a hand and all of the dragonlings feel silent, standing very still. That was unusual, nay even creepy to see young children of any race do that, that wasn't what children do. The cloaked figure turned out to be an very old dragoness of blue skin and eyes that showed that she was blind, though despite the teeth-missing smile and the strangeness to her, she could tell that she had that sort of grandmotherly love as she smiled at the jaguar and asked her if she wanted some sweet meat. Sweet meat...? Excuse me, but I haven't heard of- Her question was answered as the elderly dragon pulled out a small piece of meat from her cloak that did oddly smell very sweet, and was promptly shoved into Jazira's mouth as she was talking. It dissolved in her mouth before she could spit it out, though she found herself suddenly relieved of that dull pain that her headache was causing, as that too disappeared. H-how...? The surprise was never-ending as the elder one cackled and spoke about seeing the look of surprise on her face, though she looked more confused as she continued on. But I'm not in love... Her voice trailed off as the dragoness merely cackled again, it seemed that she wouldn't get much of a word out to someone like this, even if she meant well. So far you seem to know what I'm thinking before I do, so yes I am wondering. Despite herself, she sort of smiled a little the eccentric behavior was odd, but she sort of reminded her of her old nanny before the elderly woman passed on. It was even more so as the dragoness grabbed her hand and dragged her with strength that she wouldn't have thought was there towards the food. This lady enjoyed her privileges as an elder. Finally the dragonlings moved, at first following in silence, though as soon as the woman pulled out a ball of string and tossed it down, they were all over it. Well, all but one, who remained on her back yet stared at the ball with somewhat longing. I thought that he just liked my wings... Jazira said with mild honesty, when the elder spoke that it seemed that he grew attached to her despite that she carried the family scent of that of her brother she decided to stop trying to figure out how it was that this woman would know so much, for it could cause her another headache. But she scowled as the dragoness essentially told her to stop moping for her old life. That life isn't what I'm missing, it's the family that did care, she said somewhat peevishly, still scowling. Nobody could seem to understand that it wasn't for the old life she wanted, but the brothers that cared and had made that castle her home rather than a prison. If she hadn't had them, then there wouldn't be anything to miss from her old life. Having a choice to experience things in exchange for family was still a hard thing to accept, nor did she really want to leave like she had, what with the last images of Dimitri was of him to stare off at her with such a hopeless and hollow expression... Blinking upon hearing a squeaky voice calling for a mother, the elder dragoness looked up towards the source and said that it was her cue to leave. Though before doing so, Jazira found herself with an apple stuck into her mouth before the old woman took off cackling, a gray dragoness running after her in chase. The princess was currently pulling the apple from her mouth when the white dragon made his appearance yet again, and in her bemused state she merely shrugged lightly as he apologized for Neera and explained about her. It's fine... she muttered, not really looking at him as the young dragonling on her back yawned over her shoulder, in the process of falling asleep. She didn't answer, as none was needed, as he said he should take the gold dragon to bed with the rest of the dragonlings, doing the same trick that the black dragon had back before to have the young one fall right off her back into his arms. As he left after telling her to get to know them better 'before condemning them', she scowled after him. Telling her what to do only made the stubborn princess to do the opposite, and frankly she was tired too. Sighing, she only grabbed a piece of chicken and made her way to a nearby wall, sitting down on the deck to promotely eat it slowly. At least she didn't let out a stinging resort at him like she wanted to, about him not needing to condemn her own people like he had... Stubborn princess be very stubborn. XD
