Re: Day 6.

[eggshell]

I thought he was your mate? Am I wrong? Are you nesting out of wedlock?

Re: Day 6.

[captivitea]

He is.
No, you're not.

[ dan feng can hear him WHEEZE from across the cul-de-sac. ]

It's that serious?
I need to ask him to marry me?

Re: Day 6.

[eggshell]

[you really picked the most traditionalist dragon in this godforsaken hellhole to ask]

You young people! Back in my day we would not even have thought of considering a mate without the intention of matrimony
Is Neuvillette a mere dalliance for you
He seems delicate. Do not play with him like that


Re: Day 6.

[captivitea]

I never said I hadn’t considered it, [ a brief thought, maybe, but nothing more because they’d only started dated a few days ago. ]

I just… we only…
This is all new!
I wanted to do something nice for him.
My intention was not to ‘play with him’.
Neuvillette means a great deal to me.
If you’re the expert…
then help me.

Perhaps you are not as useless as I thought after all
Nests are a personal preference. I suggest only providing materials and letting him arrange them. Do not make one on your own
How attached are you to that coat of yours

[ the fuck is that supposed to mean… ]

Alright. I’m actually out looking for materials now.
I was told to look out for soft and fluffy materials.
Furs, too.
Maybe cotton stuffing and plush toys.

[ stares at the phone at the mention of his coat, because he has a brief flashback of neuvillette asking for it if he’d won their little gaming session. ]

He wants it, doesn’t he…

Re: Day 6.

[eggshell]

It is not the material
He will want things that make him feel safe
Ergo

Some of my clothes then.

Anything else I should know?

How long is the gestation period for his species?

Re: Day 6.

[eggshell]

Do you mean to tell me not only you are nesting out of wedlock but also you did not eVEN KNOW THE MOST IMPORTANT BIOLOGICAL MARKER FOR NESTING

[ there is no response… just several ominous minutes of nothing. that is until wriothesley appears at his window and bangs on it. he has to pull his punch, because he doesn’t want to break the glass… only get dan feng’s attention. ]

Re: Day 6.

[captivitea]

[ what the hell are you talking about, all he wanted to do is make a cute nest for his cute boyfriend. ]

[he is the deranged murderer here and yet

opening his window...]

Doors. Do you know how to use them?

Re: Day 6.

[captivitea]

I know how to use a door. [ gives him a look as he climbs in, which takes more effort than he’s expecting because of all that cake. ]

I hadn’t finished, no, I barely started getting things, so I can’t come in through the front empty handed. But that’s besides the point right now.

What are you talking about, gestation period? [ he’s kidding right? ] How?

Re: Day 6.

[eggshell]

Draconic species usually have the ability to both fertilize and carry. [you know it's serious when the resident homicidal bastard is looking at you with Great Concern.]

Why do you think it is called a nest, you incompetent excuse for a betrothed?

Re: Day 6.

[captivitea]

[ bites back a sigh as he pinches his brow. ] ...enough with the name calling. It's not necessary. [ he gets the point loud and clear. ] I wanted to curate a nice, safe, and comfortable space for him. [ he wasn't even thinking about eggs. ]
