Sa-ar brought a hand up to his chin. Yes. The human nuances were coming back to him with ease as well. The more he listened the more grave his face became. "I.... must have been asleep for a long time for the humans to have come this far. The structures I awoke to were very strange... but easily decimated... but these weapons you speak of do warrant some caution." His eyes slid to the side as he recalled the destruction he wrought in his state of disorientation.
When Sa-ar saw Grael mobilize he quickly fell in tow, keeping just a step behind her. He wasn't entirely sure about wandering into a human settlement where no one would recognize him though. His mind drifted to the murals and art dedicated to him when he served as a God to a people many many many years ago.

Ci'nala leaped up and looked at Silia with a smile. "As interesting as watching the grass grow, which I guess is a good thing. No action means no deaths." She moved to Tryst'n and whispered into his ear "I'm gonna fly further into the forest, see if I can find anything." She bumped him on the nose, then looked at Silia again. "I'll be back before the full moon sets, which should be in a few days. If you need me, ask Swillow to call me." She unfurled her wings, then flew out of the cave and further in the forest.
Tryst'n watched as his mate flew off, then sighed; he just got her back and now she was gone again. But, something told him to stay and protect the two females. He watched as Anya drank and as Silia tended to her eggs, which Ci'nala did a good job of watching.

Grael nodded as she moved. It wasn't long before they reached the town. Grael breathed in deeply, seeking out the scents of the humans from earlier. She wasn't able to get a trace of them at first but as she moved towards a hotel a familiar smell reached her nose. It had definately been one of the humans from the diner.
Grael looked up at the hotel that stood before her. Whichever human she had scented earlier was in this building. The only question was whether or not she should enter or wait for the human to exit. She decided on the latter and looked around for a good vantage point from which she and Sa-ar could stake out the building.
Edit: Thanks, i was obviously not typing as fast as my thoughts were going.

Maximillion looked at Kai for a few moments, his stance not shifting even the slightlest bit. After a few moments, he stood at ease, brushing the hair out of his face with his hand. "I'm sorry about that... I made a promise to keep him-" He motions towards the green dragon. "-safe, and I didn't know who you were, so I thought that you might have been here to try and capture him. That, and you caught me off-guard..." He said, before turning towards the dark dragon, nodding. "I didn't know, sorry about that." He apologized, before turning back to Kai, holding out his left hand to him. "As you hear, my name is Max, sorry for the misunderstanding, Kai." He gave a glance over to Achiu. "Glad to see you are awake, how are you feeling?" He asked, waiting for Kai to take his hand.

(EDITED Achiu's part)
Silia was a bit confused when Ci'nala up and left like that, but it wasn't really her place it interfere, so she let her go. "Alright. Take care of yourself, Dear."
When she was gone, she turned to Anya. She was acting a bit strangely. Going over and settling comfortably around her eggs, she tilted her head as she watched the human girl. "Is everything alright, Anya? You're acting a bit strangely...."
Achiu looked back and forth between Eclipse and Kai for a moment, then decided that the other dragon was right, there was no threat here. Laying down, he looked at Kai. "I think it's going to be a little before I'll be able to sleep again. But it's nice to meet you, Kai." Remembering his dream, he closed his eyes and shook his head, trying to shake the images out. I WILL return to you soon, Silia. I promise you.
Turning to Max, he smiled slightly. "I... I'm alright, Max. Thank you for your concern. I'll let you know a bit better once my body settles a bit."

Sa-ar followed Greal until they came upon the clearing where a few human settlements had cropped up, including the hotel. However, he stopped where he still had some cover, not wishing to step into such unfamiliar terrain. He just stood observing it from some bushes, cocking his head to the side quizzically. After hearing reports of the sorts of weapons they wielded he was going to think twice about stepping onto their turf in this frail body was was in. However, he understood transforming likely would blow Grael's cover. The dragon was not without some forethought.

Subira rolled over in her bed. Her eyes slid open, slime caking to the corners. She stared over at the alarm clock. Barely any time had passed. She rolled over again facing the wall and tried to sleep, but it was to little avail. Jet lag was not going to permit her any rest. With a frustrated moan she turned over and slowly sat up, swinging her legs around until her feet were firmly planted upon the floor. She sat there for a moment then slowly sat up. Slipping on a loose robe she wandered over to her laptop and powered it on. Then her eyes went over to the landline phone in her room. She rubbed the back of her neck in contemplation, then walked over to it and picked it up, asking to be redicrected for an outbound call. She pulled on the chord until it reached where her laptopt was and sat down, pulling up some files.
"Yes. This is Subira. Yes, the new assistant. I am sure you already heard about the fiasco at the cafe, what with the roof being torn off." She stifled a yawn. "Yeah, I was there. I'll have a report on the incident if you'd like. No? Sounded to me like you didn't want a pair of trained eyes. I know i'm just the assistant. I understand. Still, I'll write it regardless, and if you'd like... ah, I thought you might. It will be handed in on top of those notes on the green specimen."

Anya shook her hands dry, "yes, it's just water, it scares me, it's a hard concept to grasp when you can't see it, it's clear but then it's blue, it stays on you but it runs when you pour it." Anya's non-existent gaze fell upon the bucket and it's contents, " I just want to know how it works."

Silia couldn't repress a chuckle at Anya's words. "Dear, I don't think anyone understands water. It's one of the mysteries of nature." She thought about it for a moment. "Well, maybe Ci'nala, but she was born part of the water. There are so many things that one could obsess over if they would let themselves, you could drive yourself to absolute insanity. The best thing is to just accept that things are the way they are, and let it be."

"Letting things be is not what a scientist does," Anya pointed out, "If we let things be humans would be about as advanced as the proverbial elf, we take things apart. We put them back together with a piece missing, that is the beauty of it all" she sighed, "and insanity is a threshold I crossed years ago."

Kai relaxed when Max finally did and shook Max's hand, "It's alright... I'd probably jump a foot if I suddenly saw another person in here." He looked back at the green dragon and bowed his head in respect. "Nice to meet you too Achiu."
Eclipse nodded, knowing that it did take awhile to sleep again after being waken in such a way, then he glanced at Kai and grinned. "Yes, you'd jump alright...then fall out of the cave again..." he chuckled, recalling the last time he did.

Silia considered Anya's words. "Hmm. Well, I suppose you may be right. We dragons live differently than you humans. At least, those around here do. Outsiders like Sa-ar.... I really don't know." She chuckled a bit at the insanity comment. "I think we're all a bit insane, at least to some degree. You're insane for being here. I'm insane for allowing you to be here, much less having saved you when you fell. But...That's how life goes, right?"
Achiu smiled slightly watching the exchanges. He couldn't help laughing at the picture of Kai being startled out of the cave, then winced at the probable outcome of said action if Eclipse wasn't fast enough to catch him. "So, how long have you two known each other?"

Ci'nala had a feeling that there was someone else out there; Silia's mate. She wanted to do something for her friend, but she didn't know how to get there or where to start.
Tryst'n watched as Ci'nala flew off, then decided that now was a better time than any to tell Silia. He stood up and walked to her, ready to stop her if she got angry. "Silia, you've been a gracious host, but I haven't been entirely truthful with who I am. It's for my safety that I kept it a secret. You see, I was captured not too long ago, and I changed my name to protect my mate, whom you know as Ci'nala. My name is Tryst'n of the Typhoon Clan of Wind Dragons. I apologize for lying to you."

Silia was frozen in shock for a moment. It was a good thing she was laying down, because she wasn't sure if she would be able to hold herself up.
It was almost a full minute before she was able to bring herself back to reality. "Wha... I... I'm sorry. This is just.....a little much to take in." She took another minute to sort through his words, then something struck her. "Swill... I mean Tryst'n, you said you were captured? Did you see a green dragon, a little bit bigger than me, by the name of Achiu?"

Eclipse glanced back to Achiu and thought for a second, he'd also caught the expressions the green dragon made and grinned again. "A little under a month I'd say... and don't worry, he actually did fall before and lived somehow..most of the time he was here it was while he was recovering."
Kai scratched the back of his head, "..yeah..I know..I'm a klutz..and medically dense, bone wise."
