 Bright yellow eyes shifted as the red tinge in them seemed to darken. It was a hot night, hot enough to cause the small amount of fur on his back to stand in a light amount of sweat. If anyone were a lesser dragon they might pant at the heat, but Jalil was use to working in these extremes. And some might say that he was just as unrelenting and heartless as the night heat.
Riding a tongue over his sharp teeth, one thing could be said about the red dragon, and that was that he may have taken after his father's appearance, but if anything he was more the demon his mother's side gave him than the gentleman his father was. Not completely evil, but he had his moments where it was better to completely ignore him or just stay out of his damn way.

Pale white eyes watched with interest at a red male strut through the darkness. The air was hot and muggy, her wings dangled off the tree branch in which she rested. She was too hot and irritable to present herself now. With a grunt and a flick of her tail, she shifted her paws to settle beneath her chin in a 'not interested' manner - and yet she could not stop watching the beast.
Being the quiet one that she was, her gaze remained fixed. She didn't feel like talking right now. However, she might make a consideration if he was smart. It had been a long time since she held a half way decent conversation with anyone. Giving her wings a gentle flap to stir up a slight breeze, she let one paw slide lazily off the branch, her claws digging into the bark as it descended.

The slight sound, though faint, was all he needed for his head to swivel abruptly in the opposite direction. A tendril of a smirk appeared on his face for only a moment before the amusement faded and his eyes narrowed again. "Find something interesting?" He asked in a flat voice, watching the brightly colored female carefully. She was a bright beautiful red that made even his own pelt seem dull in color, which to him was very rare. Who was this female? He had certainly never seen her before...

Cherie smirked, but it quickly faded. So far he seemed.... cocky. Arrogant perhaps. An intelligent conversation was not looking to bright right about now. "Perhaps I did. Perhaps I did not." she stated rather blankly before letting herself gingerly 'fall' out of the tree. Landing on her delicate paws, she gave her fore right paw a thorough look over before flicking just her eyes back towards the male - her head still remained tilted downward. "You look threatened." she grinned as she delicately licked her paw, then placed it back down on the ground.

"Threatened?" He repeated her words with a laugh in them. "And why would I be afraid? You look like you couldn't even hurt a kitten." With a raised brow he couldn't help but smirk, the female was maybe a little interesting. Her nonchalant attitude was definitely odd and he couldn't help but shake his head at her attempt to ruffle his fur.

Cherie laughed deeply. "Would you like to see what I can do?" she grinned, her blank white stare seeming to glow as she stepped from the darkness of the tree and into the moonlight. She flicked her head back, casually glancing around as if she had better things to do. Letting out a sigh, she flicked her tail, ruffled her wings, and simply stood - staring into his eyes. "You could at least be a Gentleman and give me your name big boy." she said, her face dull of expression for the time being.

He took a step in her direction but only the one, not daring to step closer as his eyes continued to look off just beyond her direction. "Well.... I could." He stated in a lazy manner as his shoulders shrugged as if it were a boring statement. "..But I make a habit to not give my name out to strangers unless they ask for it." Flicking his tail, his eyes finally made contact with hers, not seeming too intrigued by her lack of irises. "..Oh I'm sure you could do many... many things. And I could always challenge you to see them, I'm sure you could give any male a fit of fun, if only for a night." With a laugh he turned his head, ready for the female to bite his head off if she wished, it was quite possible that he had stepped over the line with that one.

Cherie growled, but restrained herself. He was easily twice her size and despite how fast she might be - if he pinned her down she was done for. Snorting, she looked off to her right, glaring at a random bush. Blinking her eyes, she looked down and examined a paw. "Perhaps. I guess you will never know, will you?" she said, still not bothering to look at him. "And I do believe I did ask for your name." she questioned, rather annoyed actually.

Raising a brow, he flicked his tail again. The girl was way too easily annoyed, which had drained the fun out of much of anything. Too serious. Which for him was saying a bit as he was a little too serious himself. "Jalil." He stated, having no need to play the games anymore. Her lack of humor was causing his to leave. "And what's yours?" He added briefly.

"Cherie. Cherie Bloodrain." she stated simply, glancing back at him. For a moment she studied his face before a 'Aah I see' type of grin spread across her muzzle. "Your bored with me aren't you?" she laughed. Now that was amusing. Standing up, she walked a circle about him, purposely brushing her tail annoyingly up his nose - or as close as she could get to his nose. "Don't tell me your used to girls fawning all over you now." she laughed. "Although..." she paused, thinking to herself, letting the statement hang in the air.

Just as her tail brushed passed he nipped at it, purposely missing as his eyes rolled up at her statements. "Actually, no. I don't spend enough time caring what girls think for them to care about me." He stated bluntly. "I really could care less." He moved slightly so that her tail would stop annoying him. "And 'although' what? I'm not your toy, nor would I wish to be." He growled slightly in her direction, teeth slightly barred.

She laughed again. "Uh oh now the beast is angry." she teased, padding away slightly so her tail wouldn't be nipped. "So cranky, its such a downer." she snorted. "You should find a gal. You need it." she sighed as she began to prance off, purposely ignoring his question about her unfinished sentence. She would have complemented him if he wasn't so...well grumpy.

"A girl?" He snorted, tossing his head back in an unpleased manner. "I have a girl, thank you. My daughter. And while she's not exactly a chip off the block I don't really see why I need someone else to justify who I am." Shifting his weight from one foot to the other, he kept his eyes on her. "Do you feel the need to have a man in your life then?" He would have guessed that was the only reason she brought it up. Was she searching for a mate?

Cherie paused, almost dead in her tracks. Mate and Children. Probably the most two things she desired most though she would never admit that to anyone. "A daughter?" she asked softly, glancing down at her paws. She didn't remembered her mother. Or her father for that matter. "And what I feel is really none of your business." she said, turning her head back to him with a glare before sitting down on her haunches. She was silent for several moments, really wanting to ask a question, but decided against it. He would no doubt answer with another arrogant remark. Why did he interest her so?

"Well, technically I suppose I have two daughters and a son, but I never see two of them and the daughter I know most about really has very little to do with me. She mostly stays with my father, much to my mother's demise." He sighed and rolled up his eyes at the thought of his mother throwing another one of her tantrum fits. Hearing what she stated about it being none of his business he couldn't help but chuckle a little inwardly, but he kept it silent so she couldn't hear. So she did desire a family, perhaps it was to be expected, most females did, even the strong ones. "Perhaps... someday I'll go back to see her, and if we continue talking about that time... you might come along."
