Okalinath was busy setting her clutch back to rights after the excitement of the Touching. She was alone on the sands – besides Krypth, but Okalinath wasn’t interested in counting the sourpuss no-fun gold – since she had sent Torath off to vent his frustration on herdbests (and bring her something too!) and Kahleena had gone to lunch herself. The young woman was still slightly frazzled from the event, but mostly from Okalinath’s resounding joy and high end emotions.
Humming quietly to herself, Okalinath nosed one egg back towards the main clutch, before nosing another, rolling the eggs while also turning them enough to cater to their need for even heating. They would hatch very soon, and Okalinath was determined that they should all hatch! She clearly had a superior clutch than those Krypth was capable of bringing forth, but the other gold had no duds to her name and Okalinath refused to give the other the satisfaction of outdoing her in that regard. However, that required Hatching day to prove Okalinath was yet another bar above Krypth.
It took the small gold a moment to realise there was someone entering the sands, and she turned in surprise at the sound of a woman’s voice, her eyes sparkling the startled emotion, before flooding with joy when she processed the request. Oh, that would be grand! Okalinath cheered, turning to face Ravana while batting away the inquisitive though of Kahleena, telling her bonded to mind her own business and eat her meal before it got cold; she was quite fine!
Okalinath shot a smug look in Krypth’s direction; no one but Jada painted her clutches, but here this woman wanted to paint Okalinath’s! Clearly, she was far superior! Radiating a smug joy, Okalinath stood to walk around to where Ravana was standing, and lowered her head to the woman’s height, peering at her clutch critically. Let me fix them up! Trotting back, Okalinath nosed a couple of the eggs once more, picking up the gold one carefully in forepaws to move it to the front and centre, she then carefully arranged the others around it. After she was done, Okalinath stood up and returned to Ravana’s side, lowering her head to the woman’s view-height once more and again analyzing her clutch.
There! One moment! How should I be? the gold quickly returned to the far side of her clutch, and stood for a moment, looking expectantly at Ravana to instruct her on how to pose. It was all very important! She knew she was a gorgeous dragon, but she wanted to be the most gorgeous, and she didn’t know what angle Ravana would have the most skill with drawing her at!
