Odd Encounters

[Ricia]

"Well... I like to have a bit of money to.. cushion myself at times. Specially with a baby on my hands." Rhea said with a smile, "It's just a.. just in case thing." Rhea told Shania. "Money can be useful..." Rhea told her. "And.. usually the only way for me to get books and scrap metal for Roen."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"then we can stay colect a bit of coin," Shania said "I often forget you need things I don't... curse of... living on your own most your life,"

 

[Ricia]

"Well.. we can just pick up a job the next town. I think Zek is ready to leave this one behind." Rhea told Shania with a small smile.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Zek tenced up "Girls are confusing," he said running a hand through his now dry silver hair.


"Hey I agree with that statment," Shania said.


"You are a girl," Aria pointed out.


"Hum? well yeah but I'm not like most you know?" Shania said with a small chuckle


"Agreed," Zek said "girls are traditionally cute, like Rhea ... not frightening like a rabid animal,"


"Say that again Zek magic or no I'll woop you," Shania growled.

 

[Ricia]

"C... cute..." Rhea said flushing. The whole.. traditional part bothered her though. She was raised to be the traditional girl. To be married off to other people. She didn't want to be traditional.


"Come on, those two can fight on their own." Roen took his dragon form and nudged Rhea with his tail to start packing up his bags. Rhea dropped Soki into his small pack before starting to get the rest of the items in the bag. She even gave Roen some of the metal scraps.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Come little Dragon, they can catch up," Aria said taking her dragon form too. She picked Skysong up scooping the little one up with her tail carefully.


"Hey! you wou;dn't just leave us!" Shania said "Here Roen your metals," she said leaving the bag where he could get it.

 

[Ricia]

Rhea smiled a bit, "It's ok. You two would catch up." She told them while finishing packing. Though she took the metals and put them in the bags too. With that Rhea took a seat on Roen's saddles and they started to walking.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"I would have... Zek's a prince he's pretty squishy," Shania said "powerful mage... means he is even more squishy," Shania said noting his weak physical powres.


"I do well enough wolf girl," Zek said crossing his arms.

 

[Ricia]

Rhea mostly ignored them, she really didn't want to get involved in their bickering. Her mind wondered to different places. "Hey Aria.. have you ever seen another dragon outside of Roen?"

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Not yet," Aria said :i was alone when I hatched," she told Rhea

 

[Ricia]

Roen nodded, "I was as well. Soki and Skysong was very lucky." Roen said as they walked. "I assume draken came naturally to you?" Roen asked Aria.


"Soki seems to know Draken fairly well... he learns it quicker then I've ever seen." Rhea said slowly.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Yes it did," Aria said "It's natural and rolls from my tongue willingly," she told Rhea. "You learned from Roen right little dragon? so it feels as natural to you as us,"

 

[Ricia]

"Yeah, I did learn from Roen." Rhea said with a smile. "I was only 3 when we bonded. I still tried to learn it on my mind, though it felt more like practice then anything else."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"It must be wonderful... to meet so young," She said "but what was a three year old doing out to find a dragon?"

 

[Ricia]

Rhea flushed, "I er... Ran away from home...."


Roen chuckled, "When I brought her back, her family was not happy. But since we were bonded... they killed me, Rhea would die too."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"I do not see why bonding to a dragon would make ones parents unhappy, as you are most likely the best protector a little girl could have," Aria said

 

[Ricia]

"Yes my parents were thrilled with a man eating dragon in their back yard." Rhea said with a chuckle, "Dragon misconceptions are a sad thing."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Man eating... well I suppose if its provided men will do for a snack," Aria admitted as she had eaten the soul of many in her days.

 

[Ricia]

"It's not my fault man kind are lower on the food chain then I." Roen said with a huff.


Rhea chuckled a bit and pet his neck, before looking over to see if Zek and Shania were still bickering.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Zek still looked upset But shania was sort of spaced out as if in thought so their bickering had stopped.

 

[Ricia]

"You guys ok?" Rhea asked them.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Yeah its good to bicker every now and again gets some steam off, Me and Zek are fighters not fighting," Shania was interupted.


"Gets us in a foul mood," Zek crossed his arms "It's why I used to pick fights with Father,"

 

[Ricia]

Rhea smiled "lets get a job then next job."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Yeah, I fogot how much i liked working," Shania said

 

[Ricia]

Rhea smiled, "I was worried you guys would object to finding a job. Roen likes to fly and travel more then work." Rhea told them, "I think Aria much prefers it as well, but a good job would be fun.


"Surviving can be work in its own." Roen commented.
