Niki and Ala paused at the incubator that held the koala girl's egg so that Alaqua could say bye to it. The girl watched the flames dance over the surface of her egg for a few moments, then, with a wave, she followed her mother and the rest of the group out the door.

Perilas stood in the small entrance area to the incubation facility, a clipboard in hand. The tall and slightly hefty man was skimming the list again. Kids. Around such equipment. Excited kids on top of that. Well, hopefully they'd all have hot moms.
The man grinned on that thought, letting his mind wander for a few moments before pulling his attention back to the list he'd been given. Six kids were on it. Peri hoped that they wouldn't all be wild kids. And that this would go quickly.

The door opens up suddenly and a brown blot appears but little by little it begins to be distinguished to Lucía on her skates. Lucía sees a man in the room and she comes closer to him skating.
" hellooooooo , I'm Lucia and I here for see my eggy" She smile the man.
The door opens up again and leave to enter to Pi, a little altered and upset with her daughter.
"How many times I have told you that you don't enter skating to the buildings, for what seems few" she blows and nods, then she sees the man of the room and she is presented " Hello I'm Pi the Licias's mother"

"Brother, slow down!" Came Liang's flustered voice as she scrambled through the door tailing an impatient teenage Teagan. She hadn't really been thrilled about having to come to the labs, it would chance meeting a few people who had seen her cowardly behavior at the flying class. But, with a little prodding, and having been carried out to the car, she was here. If she remembered right, she was here to see her egg. Scaly things, but hopefully it wouldn't be that bad. After all, sweet little Roule had been excited so it must not be all bad.
"Oh come on Liang, I've seen you move faster than that going to the dentist!" Teagan prodded, flicking his tail anxiously. This was the first time he'd been in the D-Corp labs, and he was only here because his mother had decided that Liang would be more comfortable with him than her. Besides, dragons were pretty cool, even if they were still eggs now. And maybe he'd get to see some of Liang's frends.

Butterflies danced in Aysel's stomach, irritating it into flip flops and knots. Carefully the little girl brushed at her dress, checking it for spots of dirt or wrinkles. She had put on her best outfit for today, a cheery red dress and matching shiny shoes. Biting her lip, the luna moth wished she had a mirror, to check the makeup she had put on. Aysel had been so careful to paint it but it could have gotten smudged. She wanted to look perfect for her egg, and the other kids.
Casually her mommy's hand tightened on her's in reassurance. Smiling a little the luna moth preceeded her mommy into the room where they had been directed. Resisting the urge to stand and gawk at all the complex and interesting looking things in the room Aysel smiled at the other two already in there. Slowly she followed her mommy to the only unattached adult in the room.
It took a great effort to keep the scowl from her face. But with her daughter still prone to tantrums about her appearance, Tara tried her best to keep things positive. Projecting her own...distaste..of D-corp onto Aysel, would not be a very good thing to do. Following her daughter into the room the mage glanced around noting the children and adults.
Tara made her way into the room and over to the man with a clipboard. After waiting for a girl in skates to finish talking to the man Tara nodded. "Aysel ****** and mother here."

((Okay, I'm gonna start it. Stella, Roule, and Nara have until my next post to come in late. After that, they've missed it and will have to wait...))
The man looked up as the first child showed up... on skates. Great. This was looking wonderful. He raised one eyebrow slightly at the child, then looked down at his list. "Okay. Lucia." He checked her name off.
Peri was about to say something to the girl and mother when another child and a male walked in. Darn. Not a woman. Oh well. He glanced down at his list. That must be Liang. She was the only bird on his list, so that made sense.
The man glanced from his clipboard to his watch, looking up to see that another girl and her mother had shown up. Three girls. Well, the majority of this group was supposed to be girls. "Aysel..." He scanned the list, marking the girl's name off.
After another glance at his watch, he smiled warmly at the two mothers. "Okay, it's time to get this tour started. Please stay together. Once I've shown your child her egg, you may choose to stay there and look at it a bit longer or follow along with the rest of the group. No straying. No touching anything unless I say you can." He glanced down at the girls. "Okay? Good. Let's head off!"
Peri turned and started towards the first incubator. "This is Lucia's egg. It's a white dragon. Notice how the egg is buried deep in snow. It has to be for it to hatch out healthy. The egg has to stay cold, but you can hold it for a few moments if you'd like." He looked questioningly at the lynx girl. "Any questions?"

"You hear that? No touching," Teagan whispered, trying desperately to get Liang to relax for once. She was working herself up into a frenzy about this, though he couldn't see why. There were only three kids there, her included, so it wasn't like she had this huge crowd judging her.
"Be quiet," she whispered back, shuffling quickly as they started to walk. She didn't want to fall behind, especially not risking getting lost in here with these eggs. Even if they were in tanks. They were still creepy. By the time they reached the first egg, apparently belonging to a Lucia, she had wiggled her way up against Teagan, using his arm as a bit of a security blanket. As long as he was there, she would be fine.

Lucía follows Peri skating to her surrounding without paying a lot of attention until she listens her name and egg together in a same sentence. She comes closer to an enormous glass a little steamed up by the cold of the other side to see a surrounded room of snow and with a white egg with blue spots.
"Wow it is white and blue coollll, It is boy or girl?, does It Have name?, what does It eat?, does It have wings like Gabby's dragon or a great tail like Sahra's dragon?, does it always need this cold?" Lucía says all this without separating the look of her egg when she remembers to have heard something on sustaining it "Can I hold it after seeing all the other eggs? I also have curiosity for the other eggs " separating a little directs Peri a charming smile

Peri blinked a bit as a barrage of questions flew his way. He took a moment, then started answering the ones he remembered. "We're not sure of any of the dragons' genders. You'll find out when it hatches. You also get to name it. White dragons eat meat like all the other dragons, but they prefer theirs to be frozen." The man paused for a moment, both trying to recall the next question and then to think if he knew the other kids' dragons that she was referring to.
"White dragons have wings and a tail, though their tail isn't as long as some species' are. Once your dragon hatches, it doesn't have to stay this cold, but it will definately prefer the cooler weather." Peri picked up a pair of thick gloves near the tank. "Well, you can hold it for a moment or two before we move onto the next egg..."

Aysel nodded at the mans instructions, lower hands knotting themselves together then apart. A tad nervously the luna moth smiled at the other girls, not recognizing either one of them. About to say hello, and introduce herself, she quickly shut her mouth.
As the group moved towards the equipment, Aysel lagged a bit looking at the machinery. The group slowly pulled ahead. "Aysel," Mommy broke in, gesturing at the group. Lengthening her step Aysel hurried towards group.
"This is Lucia's egg. It's a white dragon." The instructor said as the pair caught up. Peering at the egg, Aysel shivered with sympathy.
"That's looks really cold.." The girl whispered to her mommy. "Is mine going to be like that?"
"I don't know," came the equally quiet reply. Biting her lip in curiousity Aysel watched closely.

Lucía nods with a lot of attention to the words of Peri, she wants to take care well of her dragon so that it is happy.
"you have heard mommy frozen meat and it will have wings exactly as Nyoka"
Lucía this charmed when she see Peri pick up the egg of the tank and give it to her to sustain it, it is cold but at the same time it seems as that something moves inside it is a very special sensation.
"Eggy I'm Lucía and when you leave of there we will go together to skate and to play" She says while she hugs the egg closely. Then she gives the egg to Peri and she hopes to continue with the following egg, but for sure it won't be so cool as her.

Perilas carefully set the egg back into the incubator, nestling it down into the snow. Satisfied that the egg was set, he closed the container and sealed it, pulling off the gloves and setting them beside the thick glass. Picking his clipboard back up, Peri looked down at the next kid.
"Okay, Liang, you're next." He gestured for the group to follow him, heading towards another incubator not too far off. This one was set up in a shrine fashion, the delicate looking egg set in the middle.
"Your dragon is a Royal Asian Lung. See that it is sitting in a few fingers width of water? That is part of its incubation, like how Lucia's dragon egg has to be in snow. The tablets show that the dragon is respected." He pointed to the stone slabs about the egg.
"Any questions?"

"Go on," Teagan chided, seeing the familiar signs that his sister had a question, but was too shy to ask it. "No one's going to laugh at you," he added, dropping his voice to a whisper. In truth, he wanted to hold the egg and he didn't even have anything to do with it. It was an interesting color, that much was for sure.
With the little push from her brother, Liang stepped foward, staring at the tank. "I-I.. Um. Can I hold it?" Getting a little bolder, she pointed toward the shell and added, "Why does it have horns? And what are those little red things, jewels?" So maybe she did sound a bit overexcited, she was excited. Thanks to Roule at least.

Peri nodded at the first question. "Yes, yes. But only for a few minutes. Even though it doesn't look it, the egg is being kept at a higher-than-room temperature. But you may hold it for a bit."
The man was fetching the egg out as Liang answered her next questions. He peered at the egg for a moment as he handed it over. "Well, all Lungs have horns on their head, kinda like a deer. The number of spikes, or horns, on the egg mark it as a Royal, seeing how the dragon has a sort of crown on their heads."
"And the red things are just spots on the egg, I think." Peri shrugged.
"Well, if you've got no more questions, we'll move on to the next, and last, egg." Peri replaced the egg back into the incubator.
"This next egg, which belongs to Aysel, is a bronze dragon egg. In the wild, these dragons lay their eggs where the tides can wash over them at least twice a day. Since we can't exactly have an ocean in here, the techs have come up with a nifty design here." He gestured towards the incubator.
"Here the waters moved back and forth like the waves of the ocean. Bronze dragons can do fine out of the water, but they do love to play in it." He peered down at the cacooned girl. "We can't take your egg out of its tank, but you can reach down into it to touch the egg if you'd like."
"Any questions?"
