Taming and Challenges

Malakai groaned as he watched Grim once away bounce away from the strange new dragon.    They had been camping out in this cold, snowy plain for a while now. This new dog - Ben - seemed to hang around him too, but he didn't seem to mind all that much considering not only was he warm, but he was also pretty good a cooking and picking out the particular gems he came all the way out here to get in the first place.    Amethyst had been what he was...

When Ferdinand had returned to deliver the message of the mighty dragons acceptance of Magnus' gift, the Lord had never been more pleased with him. Which, wasn't exactly hard considering Magnus tended to treat him like dirt beneath his talons, but there wasn't much Ferdi could really do about that.    The flight back up the canyon had been a long and somewhat wobbly one, and Ferdinand didn't fancy much his chances of getting back through that completely unscathed, if...

Ferdinand never particularly enjoyed these 'trips' he had to go on. Even when accompanied by his dragons, little Juno especially, it just felt... scary.    Nico had had to stay behind this time, and having gotten so used to their interactions together, being alone once more was something of an anxiety driven spiral for him at the first long flight to an area he'd never been before on one of Magnus' hitched carriages.

Vibrating as she forced herself to not press a kiss against his forehead. She oh so wanted to hold him closer, to bury her fingers into his mane.    Instead, her fingers lightly gripped him a bit more as his ...

Malakai let out a soft sigh as he sat on his caravan steps, looking down at a tattered cloth he had in his hands. It was the remains of his last cloak and he had a nice bandage over his left leg and his side from the same situation he'd lost it in as well. It'd been a challenge to say the least getting Leshen into his new pen. He'd hoped that maybe he'd have an easier time with it when he was in his calm state, but... being in that pit had taken a toll on him apparently and he wasn'...
