Kale watched the other two kids, his eyes wide. When Emer walked up to him he grasped her hand and put it around his shoulders. Emer squeezed his shoulder genteally as she smiled down at him. "You wouldn't already know anyone like that already would you?" She gave him a wink, remmbering his many lectures to her about her manners, or better lack there of.
That familer tummy rolling thing came over him as Kale's ears reddined a little at the tips. He stood back, unsure of himself or what he was suppose to do, and he suddenly wished they could go back home so he could work on his projects, even though Momma said that he was going to meet someone special.

Niki loosed Ala to walk carefully over to the snake boy, whose hiss the koala girl took to be a greeting. Ala turned to look at the really tall boy who had entered after her. He was.... really, really tall! "Hi." She told him, a bit shy. He seemed older since he was so much taller. Why was he here?
Nikiana was keeping half an eye on her daughter, worried that the girl would break something or another. She glanced at the other two children who were already here. Ter. The snake boy had grown since Niki had seen him last, though he didn't seem to be say much still. And... a boy Niki hadn't seen before. A giraffe, eh? That had to be an interesting child as he grew. She could already see that his neck was a bit elongated and he was pretty tall for his age. Assuming he was about Ala's age...

"Welcome..."365 raised a brow at the rude behavior. She was in no means pleased with this. She gave a light snort to Orpheus's coverup. "I will call it by it's name when it decides to tell it to me." She gave a cocky smile towards the two, as she looked to the door when more entered.
Just about the sme from the next child... Well, this one didn't bother her. Children were prone to ignor the other people in the room if they weren't friends, but to simply waltz up and not say a thing? Like hell if she'd let that go. "Once again, I'll call the children bytheir names when THEY tell them to me."
She looked more than annoid, she couldn't name how many times she'd been treated in this way just because of D-corps mannorisms. She was her own individual... she handled her own department, and she worked hard and kept polite. They had no right to treat her as they did...
Another followed in behind them, causing the woman to check her wristwatch... 3..2...1. Exactly noon, on the dot. "Alright, we'll be going. This one will be first." She pointed to Ter, still refusing to call him by his name until he said it himself. She turned down the area of strange machines, moving along to the first... A sandy area with a spikey somethgin sticking out up of the miniature sand dune. "This is a Wyvern. They originate genreally in places such as africa in warm desert climates, they're highly venomous and fairly agressive. That's why D-corp is very selective when giving them out, luckally for your child It has the added advantage of being poisonous itself... Therefore, will have a stronger immunity towards the Dragon. And Dcorp always manufacutres antivenoms, and doctors can be on call at any time incase there happens to be an accident."

Orpheus opened his mouth to explain the reason that he'd introduced Terpsichore then shook his head, deciding against it. He didn't see a point since she was already moving on and not the sort of person he wanted to get directely into a conversation with, he hesitated to use the word 'b***h' as it wasn't really a good thing to call a person even mentally. So instead he kept his comments to himself.
Ter merely gave her a glare unintimidated by her attitude maybe? Or maybe he didn't really care what anyone her included thought of him or called him? Hard to really tell at the moment. He flicked his tongue and followed along after her when she pointed at him, his dislike of her waned when he saw it though, the egg among the sands, a creature of his own as Ligeia had gotten Vorel...
He gave a hissing sound, a smile spreading over his lips at the words 'fairly aggressive' he seemed to like the sound of as well. The rest fell upon deaf ears as he slithered his way closer to the egg. It was perfect! He spun around to look at his father to make sure the man was watching, making sure he saw the awesome, spikey egg he'd gotten!
Orpheus was doing that his head cocked to the side, on the last trip he had taken through here with Ligeia he remembered one of the kids, Nero wasn't it, had gotten a Wyvern as well. He'd been a bit relieved that his son had gotten something a bit tamer in the Frost Dragon and now it seemed the karma that had been so good with his first boy came back to bite him in the backside giving Ter a poisonous critter to match him... this would be interesting to say the least now wouldn't it?
He had no questions to ask as last time he'd been through he had asked about the different dragons as they went, this one he'd shown some of the most concern over with it being venomous. Now he merely crossed his arms, "You are going to have to take very good care of it when it hatches Ter, best you don't let your partner take a bite out of anyone."
And by anyone he meant Ligeia's dragon as he could all but read his son's eyes. He would be curious as to which dragon was stronger...
Ter gave his father his best 'innocent' look before turning his full attention back to the egg trying to invision what was inside.

Nikiana raised an eyebrow at the D-tech. Okay, can we say attitude problem? The woman shrugged to herself and just stood about, waiting for the group to get moving.
Ala turned her attention from the tall boy to the grumpy lady when she said something about the kids introducing themselves. "Hihi." She cheerfully chirped at the woman. "I'm Alaqua, though Mommy and Reign and most everyone calls me Ala. So I get to see my dragon, rights? Mommy said so..."
Niki blinked at the first egg. Oh great. Give a poisonous child and poisonous dragon. Intelligent. Just wonderful. Well, hopefully that meant that Ala wouldn't be getting one of these venomous critters...
((Gah, Ala's turning into Gabby! Watch out everyone! *does not know since when Ala turned to be so talkitive* o.O))

Kale raised his hand waving a bit, his cheeks flairing a bit about to say hi when the D-tech made her announcments. His large dark eyes on his feet his voice a soft murmer, "I'm Kale."
Emer's eyebrow raised at the curt way the woman spoke but kept her peace. Who knew, maybe the lady was having a bad day. She rested her hands on Kale's shoulders as they watched Ter be introduced to his egg. Wow, Orpues would have his hands full with this one. The stories she had heard about Vorel where bad enough, and now this one too?
Kale blinked watching with extream intreast. This place was fascinating. All these eggs, in thier own incubators. It was amazing. "Wow, this place is great..." He mumred softly.

Chath arrived hand in hand with his mother Jayoku. He looked eager to have finally arried at the facility as well but he was eager becuase they seemed to be fairly late. Huffing as they entered Jayoku looked emabressed and mumbeled something about getting lost. She couldn't make eye contact with the lab technician or anyone else int he room. They had just managed to catch where the group was leading off to the first egg when they had shown up.
Chath also felt embaressed the red skin on him ging redder. He looked about the room and noticed that he didn't reconize any of the other children there. He clung to Jayoku's side feeling a bit nervous.
(sorry for the late post -_-; i had no access to the net until today)

365 Watched as the boy made his way to his dragon, though all thoghts of her were b***h at the time she felt the same could be said for the way the children had been acting. Either way... the children didn't seem to care what she thought, and she didn't care what the parents thought.
She paused to turn her attention as a child ran up to her, smiling somewhat for the first time since anyone had gotten there. "I'm very glad to see someone has mannors... I am 365... I've earned the nickname Caffine though." she gave a tiny chuckle, looking to her clipboard. "Hm. Well, how about we see yours next then, Ala?" Wether it was actually hers next or not no one would ever know. Though she probably woul dhave if she had heard Kale introduce himself.
She moved up ahead, not really noting the late child. They could do whatever they wanted as long as no one was wandering around without supervision...
Moving foreward, she came to the next incubator. What they came apon was a inclosed area, a flame wrapping around a golden egg inside. "Don't worry, it needs that flame to stay alive... It can go out for a few hours if there were to be a power outage. This is a brass dragon egg, they're fairly nice and highly intellegent. However all they do is talk... Even before your dragon develops the ability to speak propor human language it will likely be talking to you nonstop. I guess they can be a handfull..." she mumbled the last in a sidecomment.

The koala girl grinned as the D-tech mentioned visiting her egg next. Yay, that would be awesome. She practically skipped along behind 365 as the group moved to the next enclosure. She listened carefully to what the woman said, stepping close to the incubator.
"So this is my egg?" Ala asked, more to herself than to the tech behind her.
A brass dragon. Smart and nice. That's good. But Niki was a bit worried about the talking nonstop. Great. Just what was needed, a chatterbox.

"Yep." 365 nodded some, tapping her foot on the tiled floors. There was a god reason she had gotten the nickname caffine, and she did have trouble staying still... "Are there anymore questions?" she glanced around the group.

Niki glanced over at Ala, but the koala girl remained silent. She seemed content to just stare at the egg bathed in flames. This was her dragon. Her very own dragon. Someone who'd always be with her and care for her. And care about her. And not like Reign. Maybe her dragon could eat Reign.... on accident, of course...

365 allowed the silence for a moment or so before picking up again "Alright, lets move on. You can stay here if you wish under your parents supervision."
With that she walked on foreward towards the next egg, she glanced to her clipboard as they reached the next setup. She looked to the child debating if she should call hi m by his name or not... Or had he said something?
Yes.. she beleived he had. "You should speak up..." she noted, "Kale right? This is yours." she gestured towards the setup that was an exact replica of Ter's, perhaps the egg was a different shade, different spikes, the sand was perhaps shifted a different way... but still the same.
365 looked a tthe egg, then back to the boy... Then to her clipboard. "...What were you thinking?" she muttered to the report papers. A tiny voice in the back of her mind reminded her that she was supposed to make this look good... Not scare anyone. But geez, this was retarded. "Well, Kale, it says here you have a wonderful personality... Kat says you were fairly outgoing when she met you, and you two had alot of fun?" Her attitude seemed to have changed slightly towards Kale all of a suden. "Like i said before antivenom is allways on hand... Thoguh kale doesn't have any natural antitoxins, his metabolism might help him. Girraffes in general can take a fairly large dose of poison without being fatal due to their size... Though no one is sure about kale in specific. We'll also provide you with an antitoxin kit as well." This was ignoring the fact Girraffes were top on a wyvern's favorite meal list.
She smiled reassuringly though, "Any questions?"

Kale grinned as he took several quick steps up to the glass, pressing his face and hands agaisnt the glass. His tail whipping back and for exctiedly, his ears twtiching so fast they almost seemed to vibrate. "This one is for me? Really? When he hatches I get to take care of him and stuffs, right? Will he talk like the other one? Or will he have more like non verbal communcation? Antivenoum? So he will is just like Ter's? What does he like to eat? Will he like this type of enviroment all the time?"
Emer ducked her head as she hid her smirk, glade to see Kale start to come out of his shell again. Once they got use to his tall size then they would treat him just the same, or at least she hoped, then Kale maybe would be outgoing again.
She blinked as she listend to the streaming questions her son spouted off, it all sinking in, "Wait.... why the hell would they give him a poisons dragon?" She rubbed the bridge of her nose, sighing. "I would like a huge supply of the antivenom.... just in case. Please."

365 almost felt bad about how excited the boy was, hopefully it wouldn't go as bad as her mind calculated it would.
Suprisingly she was able to answere each question as fast as they came out, being fairly highstrung herself. "Yes, this is yours. Yes you'll ge tto take him home. He won't talk as much, but he can talk. Yes, like it's dragon." she skipped a question "Yes, he or she is from the african savahna generally... Just like your DNA."
She almost seemed upset the barrage of quick questions had stopped, that was how she liked to get things done... Which was why she was Alan's top assistant. "Ofcourse, you can have as much as you need... We'll only charge shipping and handling if you don't want to come in and pick it up." she jotted something down on the pad, making sure they would get the extra antivenom they requested. "Dragons are chosen by talents and personality... Since his DNA has nothing to do with being compatable with a Wyvern then the only thing left is his personality. A compliment really, D-corp must have high expectations for you." She glanced at him, before becoming antsy again. "Any more questions?"
