Re: Day 6.

[eggshell]

You are so useless.
Get me a hunting knife.

Re: Day 6.

[captivitea]

I am not useless.
I have kids and a mate to take care of.
And I can't have you asking me to do something stupid and reckless
whenever you want.

Fine.
Will a machete do?

Re: Day 6.

[eggshell]

This is a really odd place to take your family on vacation.

But yes. A machete will do nicely. You may have your owner pass it on to me if you'd like

Re: Day 6.

[captivitea]

I...
not my real kids.
Greed.
Haven't you noticed it's mostly kids? [ and bailu?? ]

My 'owner' is who I want to talk to you about.
I want to help him nest.
I'd like pointers.

Re: Day 6.

[eggshell]

I only care about exactly one person here you know.

[gotta maintain the image or whatever.]

??? When did you two marry?

Re: Day 6.

[captivitea]

uh Huh. Sure.

[ whatever you've got to tell yourself. ]

What,
married?!

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.

Re: Day 6.

[eggshell]

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

Re: Day 6.

[captivitea]

[ 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

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. ]
