"Thanks..." Deidre muttered. She had to be polite if nothing else. Even though Mr. Solon was a guy he was still an adult, and her teacher.
Romeo stood there nervously until Orpheus called three when the young cowlet began to pull on the rope. It was evident that he was much weaker than his sister, but at least he was trying, even though he was struggling.
Clay snickered a bit as he watched and waited to see how badly Baroness would beat Romeo.

Baroness watched the boy as he tugged on the rope and there was the sound of her laughing in her throat before she tightened her grip on the ring in her mouth and then gave a powerful tug backwards... this one seemed to be the butt of the jokes coming from both Clay and her boy and as such she felt the need to tease as well...

With the tug Romeo went flying forward with a surprised little mooing sound. He landed face first onto the ground not being able to put his hands out in front of him cause he had been holding the rope.
"Nice one!" Clay said breaking out in laughter as his brother face planted. He found himself liking Baroness even more now.
Romeo propped himself up on the ground sniffling lightly. He was trying not to cry but it seemed like no one was on his side here, not even Baroness. The boy wiped at his eyes as he sat there being laughed at by his brother.
Deidre rolled her eyes, she thought what Baroness did was completely unnecessary. She wasn't rushing to her brothers aid but she didn't really feel that he deserved that.

Orpheus gave Baroness a long look, a look of warning masked by his glasses but his stance was one that was enough to let the dragoness knowing that she was pushing her luck... if she weren't careful she wouldn't get her present...
The dragoness reached over to catch the boy by the back of his shirt and put him down on his feet as though to show that she was 'totally nice' which was a lie but she wanted to get her gem damn it! She could fake nice if it meant getting what she wanted.
Orpheus nodded before looking over at Clay, "Your next." He said, sure that it was this boy and his own son that was egging her on with her behavior, "After that the three of you will have to work as a team in pulling and then we will be done."

Romeo was a little surprised when he was helped up by the dragon. Though he still looked down cast he rubbed his eyes a bit as he stared at his feet, "Th-Thanks..." He said before going off to his little patch of solitude as he waited for Clay to go. He didn't want to play that again, but Orpheus said that all three of them had too, and he wasn't one to argue with an adult.
Clay grinned as he got up from his spot and stood at the end of the rope picking it up with a grin, "Hope I'm more fun than Romeo was Baroness," He said with a laugh as he gripped the rope tightly getting ready.

Baroness looked at Clay before giving him a grin as though to say 'I hope so as well' before she grabbed hold of the ring and waited for the other boy to get ready, wanting to do this game all day! It was SO much fun!
Orpheus looked at Baroness with a bit of surprise but was certain it was less her 'being nice' as much as she was wanting what was promised to her. She would do whatever was necessary to add to her growing horde. He gave a bit of a smile before looking between Baro and Clay, "Ready? One, two, three, and GO!"

Clay tugged on the rope, he was obviously stronger than Romeo, and it was a toss up whether he and Deidre were about the same, though Deidre some how seemed just a little bit tougher. Whether it was from her gardening, carrying around a tea set, or constantly reorganizing her room who knew, but she was a tough little cookie. Clay was however determined to try and impress the dragon as well as Ter. He grunted as he continued to tug on the rope with all his might.
Romeo looked sheepishly toward the game. He looked embarrassed, not smiling for once, which was odd for him.
Deidre was anxious for Clay to lose and get it over with. She wanted to be done with this stupid game.

Baroness wasn't sure there, was this one tougher then the girl or not... she didn't... think so. Hard to tell but she would see soon enough, which of them could stay tugging longer she thought as she grinned and started to tug against Clay. If this was how these classes went she wanted to help out in more of them more often... to much fun getting to yank little kids around.

Clay tried to dig his heels in to stay in place though it was hard tugging against a dragon. He was pretty determined, but he gave it all he had when he first started, unlike deidre so he was trying to hang on as he was slowly tugged closer and closer to the line.
Deidre just wanted her brother to lose and be over with it. She humphed a bit as she changed her gaze to look at her other brother. Truth be told he wasn't bad for a boy, just a little weird. She kinda felt bad for him.

Baroness gave a sound that was rather... happy when Clay actually put up a fight! He dug in his heels he tugged, and he looked as though he were going to be in for the long haul. The wyvern shifted her stance and set to pulling harder, tail wagging as she enjoyed the game greatly! She only hoped they all put in their all when they did the three on one battle she thought to herself.

The young red head hung in there as long as he could but eventually he was pulled to far forward and the rope passed the line, "Darnit!" He said once he lost, "Good game Baroness," He said with a grin dropping the rope and rubbing his hands.
Deidre stood up once her brother finally lost. Now apparently they'd all have to play this again, then hopefully they'd be able to get out of here, she thought as she waited for the teacher to instruct them.
Romeo stood up as well though he looked far less anxious to get the next game going as his siblings looked.

Baroness was quite pleased, the boy had held out a lot longer then the other two had making the game amusing for her... it made it hard for her to pick who she liked better, Clay or Deidre... hmm... both had their good points she thought before she shifted her stance as she awaited the three to get ready for the game.
Orpheus smile, "Alright, last part of the game. I want you three to work as a team this time, you will tug until all three of you pass the line or you get Baroness to take a step forward. You can decide where you stand and who holds where."
Ter gave a smile as he shifted on his coils to get a better seat to watch, he was curious to see how this one went...

"Romeo you're the anchor," Clay declared quickly, "You're the biggest, and aren't good for much else," He said with a laugh as he picked the rope up again, "I'll be in the front," He said excitedly before wondering if Deidre would fight him for it.
"What ever," The girl said with a roll of her eyes as she took the rope up behind Clay. She didn't really care, this was the last game they'd have to play, then she'd get to go back home.
"O-Okay..." Romeo said still a little embarrassed. He went to the end of the rope and got into the loop, holding it as tightly as he could, regardless of the jeering he still didn't want to let Clay down.

Orpheus waited until the three had arranged themselves where they wanted to stand for this before giving a smile, "Alright, final round. Everyone ready? One, two, three... and GO!" He called out.
Baroness gave a grin before she tightened down her grip on the ring, teeth sinking into the leather due to her eagerness and started to pull when the man said 'Go' given there were three on that side now she would do all she could to try to win this one. After all it would be harder for her since she had to pull all three back but they only had to pull her forward one step.

All three of the triplets tried to stand their ground and tug as hard as they could. Romeo was interested in making his siblings proud, the other two just wanted to win for the heck of it. All three of them didn't look like they'd be backing down anytime soon. The three of them had their heels dug in and were tugging and yanking on the rope as fiercely as they could.
