"Yours is beautiful, too." Peorray was happy to return the compliment to Ameris in kind. "And so curious. It's sweet." Though she'd known that from the egg touching. Wydrith's own response still confused her in light of today's events, but that pleasant curiosity had been the most distinctive thing about the other egg.
She glanced over at R'nya and his bronze, grateful that they were obviously taking such care not to spook Wydrith. The dragon felt much improved from her earlier panic, but the world could be a big, scary place for a just-hatched baby. And meeting strangers could be stressful even to the bold. She looked back at Wydrith as she felt the gold react to R'nya's words- and find them troubling.
But why should he have to 'warm up' if he doesn't want to? Shouldn't they like him as he is? Wydrith asked Peorray, who coughed slightly to hide the beginnings of a laugh. In the space of two questions, she'd felt her dragon's wariness of Xyreith turn to a kind of sharp-edged protectiveness of the bronze. She couldn't deny a surge of pride for the gold and felt Wydrith's grateful pleasure in return.
"They should, yes." She answered carefully, conscious of wanting to impart the right message. "But I guess that they mean well, and are just trying to express that they want him around."
