While they rode back, Cazan silently called for Lady to bring her a pencil and paper so she could scribble a quick note. The gold firelizard popped in with the requested supplied supplies thankfully not followed by Sir. With the gold perched on her shoulder she quickly got the note down and handed it back for delivery with another soft pop. It was sloppy and vague, but it at least would let S'far and T'ryn know that nothing was actually wrong. Hopefully things would just stay that way and she wouldn't get into trouble for Mal's latest little tantrum.
She worked on unloading and settling in the gray mare herself, putting things away and giving the horse a quick check along with eyeing her hooves as she reassured Malvayth mentally that this was all just casual maintenance because horses were not as good as dragons, they were fragile and delicate creatures sometimes. No, she was not trying to spoil the mare, this was all just rather boring and normal. With another tantrum delayed, Caz gestured for the stable hand to follow her as she walked towards where she knew the gold was laying down, waiting for their arrival impatiently.
There you are! You could have gone faster. "If we'd rushed, then a mistake would have been made that would have taken longer. I'm surprised you managed to fly at all, Mal. You're..." not fatter, "you look like you've got more eggs than last time." Mal lifted her head smugly. I had a very good game. "Ah yes, that makes sense. So this is... uh. I'm sorry I don't know your name to introduce you properly." Caz gave her new friend an apologetic shrug.
He's Chir, it's short for Chironhes. said the dragon matter of factly. "Ah, well he can't talk on his own, like B'jin." The gold lowered her head to peer closer at Chir, nostril flaring as she took a curious sniff. Excitedly she spoke to the both of them in response, Oh! I get to be a translator! She let out a rumbling croon, delighted that she could get such an important job. "That's right," said Cazan with a sigh. At least it had been a very short lived tantrum.
Though the gold was still wanting to prove her earlier point and propped out her left to serve as a step to climb up onto her back. Cazan scrambled up first and then leaned down to hold out a hand to help Chir up after. "Remember, Mal. No flying. You don't have your straps on, and you need to take care of your eggs."You need to take care of your eggs. There was a momentary flutter of panic before she remembered her quick trip with Kor'is and Taith and Cazan shook her head. "No, Mal. I don't. Just because you're having a clutch doesn't mean I am too. Again."
Once everyone was settled on her back, Mal began to waddle along through the bowl.Are you a candidate? she asked, Chir. I have the best prizes! They aren't ready yet, but soon! Caz softly chuckled and gave the gold's hide a fond pat. "Just don't rush, dear." Lady returned from her errand empty handed, letting out a soft musical chirp as she carefully landed on the very top of Mal's head and curled up. Another soft pop announced Sir's arrival as the bronze flew to join Lady on her perch, but then he spotted Chir and changed course, landing on Cazan's shoulder as he glared at the boy. He stalked boldly closer, sniffing at the bandages hidden on the boy's side beneath his clothes before letting out a hiss and climbing back up onto his master to stand vigilant. She sighed. "Don't mind, Sir, but more importantly don't try to pet him."
