Malvayth rumbled again, delighted that Chir had called it an honor to have her translating. I like you! Very polite! You clearly know I am better than any horse, unlike some people. She was only teasing, and it showed in the merry lilt of her voice, but Cazan couldn't help rolling her eyes anyway. "Mhm. I know, I'm quite the villain." Pirate, the dragon corrected. "Right, quite the villain pirate." A bit more quietly she turned to Chir to add, "She's been on a pirate kick for the past few months ever since someone showed her a story book and she realized they have eye patches."
Mentioning the eyepatch of course made it itch, so she reached up to adjust it, carefully scratching at the scars that stretched out to her forehead and cheek before leaving it all alone again.Don't scratch your eye. I think Cazan should make a gold eyepatch, but she thinks it wouldn't look right. Do you want an eyepatch? "I think my current patch is nice enough. And I have fancier ones too. Dark colors are just classic." The one she currently wore was made of a supple black leather with delicate floral tooling around the borders from when she wanted to test a new tooling stamp.
Upon hearing the boy mention the green dragon Mal brightened.Ooh! Larrikith is good at things I think! And I think you are very nice so she's probably extra right. That made enough sense that Mal was confident in her decree. Lady's arrival distracted her for a moment as she chirped a greeting to her precious miniature gold. She didn't even notice Sir acting like a menace or realize what had happened with Chirp, but relayed his message to Cazan all the same. Caz reached up and plucked Sir off of her shoulder to sit on Mal's back in front of her. "No, Sir. Come on, you can sit on my lap. I'm sure Chir is a nice young man, and I think I could handle him, but thank you." Sir grumped and gave a hoarse objecting growl. He stayed relatively near where he'd been set for the moment, though he did peek around the goldrider's side to glare at Chir as a reminder that he was watching.
"Don't mind him, he's very protective. Doesn't really trust men much. Or women. Healers. Other bronze firelizards. You get the idea. One day he might just pretend to ignore you and it will be the greatest compliment." Sir certainly wasn't ignoring Chir now though, and hissed again to prove the point as his tiny charcoal stained head glared from around her side. "Anyway," Caz continued as she tried to relocate Sir again only to have him move his glare to her other side, "Don't worry about her. She was trying to save you from something scary. It's what Sir would have done."He saved Cazan! He is a very good Sir, Mal said matter-of-factly.
She continued her stroll until they arrived at the edge of the lake and she decided to just wade in just enough to relieve some of the pressure of her bloated belly by letting it float.This is the lake! It's nice for swimming, but not as nice as flying. "Yes, you are an excellent tour guide. Is your belly feeling better? If you want we can just go to the Sands next and you can warm back up and we'll relax with you. No more riding needed." That was exactly what the gold wanted she knew, and Mal brightened, letting out a happy warble at the suggestion. That sounds good! But is that what Chir wants? He's my guest! He should pick where we go.
