Thread: Mage games

It didn't take Meric too long dragging Lox back to his tower, but he flatly refused to drag him up the five flights of stairs to the very top portion where his room was and instead dumped him unceremoniously onto the large couch located at the bottom floor. Stirring the embers in the large fire place to get the fire going again he tossed a few more logs into it and flopped down himself onto a squishy arm chair to rest a few minuets. Wonder how those girls are handling the dragon... Better question is why exactly was it so intent on Lox to begin with... Fatigue mixed with mental tiredness soon coaxed him into a light sleep as Lox wriggled every now and then in his unconsciousness but unfortunately for the two of them it didn't take long at all for the dragon to awake on the cold floor. Most who were still milling about gave her a wide berth as she growled low and viciously at the rags covering her up and tore them away before looking for the bastard who shocked her so badly. Sniffing about it didn't take her too long to pinpoint his scent, and following it outside she found the two girls who had been fairly close to all the commotion earlier and decided to question them first. The first to turn towards her seemed to pail before shaking the other, and Noir smiled deviously at the calmer of the two as she leaned over slightly to look the girl in the eyes before speaking to her. Quite the brave little thing throwing rags on me and leaving me on the floor in there... But I do appreciate your sense of modesty even if dragons don't really care much for cloths. You wouldn't happen to know that white devil who doesn't have a will to live would you? Straightening and looking about for a little while, she brought her left hand up in front of her and with a tiny purple light summoned what looked like a jeweled dragon fly earring and showed it to her. The only reason I have not to kill him is to acquire the mate of this piece of jewelry that he somehow produced. I was planning on asking him nicely and paying handsomely for it but since he wants to be so very nasty I intend on forcing him to make me another one for free. Can't kill the bastard and keep only this one, it's much to precious to be without it's mate. Strangely enough the earring actually fluttered it's wings and crawled in a circle in the palm of her hand before flying up and slipping a single tiny golden loop through the hole of her left ear stopped and dangled there as still as it had been before. The man I bought it from said it was the only one of it's kind, and the only way I could get one for my other ear was to find it's maker. It seems I should have taken heed of his warning about the white haired mage being extremely temperamental and frightened of things he should very well be more kind too. Catching the mages lingering scent and that of his friend who had been laughing at the two of them she had every intention of giving that one something else to think about since he couldn't do her any services. Wrapping an arm around each of the two girls, she smiled deviously at the two before she led them away in a manner that didn't brook argument. I think having you two along would help in a way, maybe you can convince that friend of yours to just give me what I want before I break his legs.... But that other male is most assuredly going to get something for all that laughter. In a very short time they ended up at the front door of Lox's tower, and without invitation or hesitation kicked the door in and led the girls inside. Meric was still passed out on a chair but from the way Lox was sprawled out on the floor it seemed that he had rolled off the couch at some point in time but oddly enough both were fast asleep and looked comfortable where they were.
