Taren flinched when he was spotted expected to be yelled at but when he only got a wave he brightened and waved back. The white bird seemed nice maybe he'd let him pat those soft looking feathers,he squirmed in delight at the very thought. Then the bull spoke and he did seem to yell or at least he had a very loud and boomy voice in Taren's option. He puffed up defensively "I was not peeking..I was just..." Hmmm what had he been doing. "I was just looking at your dragons." he said quickly. It didn't seem fair. the black and white creature didn't seem much older than him and he had his dragon. Al through he did look by far the youngest of the bunch with his rounded boyish features and wide brown eyes so enhanced by his lenses.
He edged closed and deflated almost instantly, the bull boy was scary, just look at those horns! Plus he was well muscled. He waved a little back at the black and white kid to,smiling shyly, maybe he'd let him pet his tail? If he asked politely...well he could try it. He swallowed deeply. "You..ahh..have a very nice tail.." he attempted stammering a little.

Ligeia shook his head again when he was once more back of on his feet and stretched out all over before giving the dragon a smile, "Your very much like your partner." He told him, believing that to be a good thing even if it left one a little sore with how they greeted him. He turned to looked over at Fleur then laughed at Cody's question, "Not my girlfriend but a friend, I watched Fleur a while back along with some other kids to give their parents a break."
The owl then turned to Taren and gave him a smile, "You can come over and hang out with us if you like." He assured him, motioning him over with a hand. He didn't see why not the more the merrier after all. Then there was a 'thump' followed by a sort of 'screeeeeech' sound that drew the owl's attention as Vorel plastered himself to the glass doors. There were other dragons in there! He wanted in too!
"Let in Ligeia! Me too!" He called throught he door in draconic at his partner. If the other dragons could go in he wanted to go in too, "Will becareful." Even his draconic was simplified as he wasn't among the smartest of the dragons, he was sweet and very loyal though. Ligeia seemed to debate it a moment before opening the door and Vorel slipped in happily and sat next to Geia, his tail swishing happily. Yes! Success! He knew that his owl couldn't tell him no when he asked nicely.

"Friend eh?" Cody smirked a bit, his single eye narrowing on the small skunk kid as he gave 'her' a look over. Something wasn't right though, he couldn't put his finger on it just yet... Looked like a girl, acted like a girl... the voice was a bit odd though. And the smell was just too thick of apples. So far none of the girls he'd talked to had put anything on that noticable. Maybe he was still a bit light-headed.
"Hmmm...Fleur eh? Babysittin' by Legia?" He slapped his knee and gave a bit of a hooting laugh, "That's a good one." He glanced back to the owl boy, "Boy you need a hobby. Why don't'cha come brawlin' and drinkin' with Keanu an' me? We jus' get root beer right now. Nice an' cold tah help take care of any bruisin' ya get from a few lesser friendly punches." He sent another rough jab into the owl's shoulder, "It'll make a decent man outta ya."
He glanced over to the little mole kid....he....was looking at tails? "....decent man outta any fella I reckon'. 'cher name there bugeyes?"
Cody folded his arms over his thick chest and gave the mole the same critical look-over. Sizing him up almost. It was just instinct for him at this point. Just about any new kid he met among the first questions on his mind was wheather or not he might be able to get a decent fight out of them. The kid didn't seem the type to play rough though, kind of a shame. Those claws looked wicked.
Tex distracted himself with Vorel, craning his head back to flash the larger dragon a toothy grin. Not too unlike Cody's more friendly grins either.

Fleur was not quite so sure what the bull found so funny, but he smiled in response anyway, assuming that was the right thing to do. The fact that he was, indeed, a skunk probably explained the strength of the perfume though it was still not nearly as strong as he used to wear it now that he had learned how to control his natural odor.
Fleur turned to the little one behind him to give him a more proper greeting now that he was closer, then lit up at his question, blue eyes sparkling. Someone else who appreciated tails? "Thank you!" he squeaked in response, waving his tail up and down happily.
Argent, however, was less than thrilled, looking crestfallen. Another one obsessed with tails? Maybe her boy was not quite as much of a freak as she thought...
Argent yelped and scrambled back in shock when the huge frost dragon pressed against the glass, staring up at it in a mixture of horror and intrigue. Was she going to get that big...?

Taren smiled in a more genuine manner towards Geia as he invited him to join them, he was starting to like him indeed. He edged for more and then and came to a halt as Cody's question. Keeping an eye on those pretty pretty and silky looking feathers, esspicaly those wings. His claws even twitched again with his desire to touch and pet.
Buggyeyes?!? His cheeks puffed up a little in indignation. He maybe timid but he disliked being called names just as much as the next guy. Well because it was just plane mean. Still he was nice and so he answered him plainly enough, after all the boy still scared him, didn't want to make him made, plus the fact that he was the smallest one here didn't help his confidence hugely. "Me?" he asked Cody shyly. "ahhh...I'm Taren...NOT buggyeyes." he said firmly.
luckily his thoughts were quickly distracted by Fluer talking to him, his name ment flower didn't it? He had heard that somewhere and he had a very sharp memory so he often retained such scraps of information in his mind. He brighten as he detected the approval for his comment in the boys voice. His gaze following that tail as he waved, slowly starting to reach for it when he jumped about a foot in the air when the glass doors vibrated violently with the force the ice dragon applied, his eyes grew wide with awe now he was seeing him close up. He was so big.

"Brawling and drinking?" The owl asked before he started to laugh, "I don't know, you and Keanu would make short work of me in a brawl, it would be a bit like cheating don't you think?" He teased the cow boy before turning to look over at Fleur and Taren as he leaned back against his dragon.
"Its nice to see you again Fleur, how have you been?" He asked, crossing his arms over his chest then gave a smile. On his wrist was a pretty, silver bracelet that he'd not taken off for a while, one he'd gotten as a gift from his friend.
Geia looked over to Cody, "Bugeyes? Thats not very nice." He said, turning to give Taren a smile, "Cody isn't nearly as scary as he seems. Hes actually very nice." An assurance for both Fleur and Taren, while Geia know what it was like to get tackled by the guy it wasn't bad adn Cody wasn't bad.
Vorel looked over at Tex first then over to Argent giving both dragons and smile and a greeting in draconic, a smile: "Hello there." He said, two rather interesting sorts of dragons from the looks of them, metallic dragons both a copper and a silver.

"Didn't mean nothin' by it." Cody rolled his eye, giving a loud snort. "I didn't know 'is name or nothin' so I 'ad to go with I got." He looked the little mole kid over again, tipping his head slightly. "Just what in tarnation are ya anyway, kid?"
Cody, quite frankly, was as far from bookwise as a bird was to being a fish. He hardly read if he could avoid it. He'd missed out on quite a few lessons by his own fault and many more through his weeks of recovery. There'd been books and magizenes provided but he was beside himself with embarassment, he didn't dare try to read in front of Paxton and Keanu. So it was pretty reasonable that he'd never seen of or heard of a mole before. The nature channels hardly focused on the underground creatures. Owls and 'polecats' sure... owls were the creepy things that flew around at night time-which puzzled Cody...why wasn't Legiea more badass?-and polecats were the things that made cartoons scatter while they hopped about their merry way after a horrified female cat.
He never intended on being rude, though it was easily seen as being otherwise. He just had a hard time keeping what was on his mind in his mind. Rather, he was known for blurting out the first thing that came to mind...what little of one he had to call his.
In the meantime, Tex greeted the other dragon with the same wide grin as he'd displayed for Vorel. Didn't seem like Tex shared the amazing people skills of his future rider...

Fleur's attention was lacking to the extreme today, especially with so many people and dragons around him. It was very hard to concentrate on each person. One thing did catch his eye though - Ligeia's bracelet. He squeaked when he recognized it and beamed. "Chath gave that to you, right?" he squeaked again, beaming and happy Chath had found the courage to do so. He also wondered if Chath had asked Ligeia to be his girlfriend, but he knew that would be rude out in public.
Waitaminute - girlfriend? Ligeia was a boy! Fleur frowned, thinking about that. He hoped Chath knew that...while he wanted to have fun fooling other boys into thinking he was a girl just for fun, he certainly would not want someone to want to be his boyfriend thinking he was a girl!
Argent numbly raised a claw to wave up to the huge dragon, her claws twitching faintly. She knew she was going to grow, but she had no idea how big she could potentially get. She was both scared and amazed.
After a brief moment, she managed to tear her gaze back down to the copper, once again admiring his horns. It was only then that she realized she was being very rude, not only with the open-mouthed staring at the big dragon but with not introducing herself!
M-M-My n-name's...A-Argent, she stammered, shuffling her claws on the floor nervously.

"not very nice.! Taren repeated looking at Cody but after the small explanation from Geia and the sort of appolgy from the bull boy he nodded slowly in aknowlagement. "okay, I forgive you." His mother always said he should forgive people unless they were backstabbing bastards that didn't deserve it, yea they had been her exact words and he didn't think that Cody fell into that category.
He blinked again and frowned at the boy, he thought it was rather obvious what he was actaully but so many people seemed confused by it, yet he knew what everyone else was, could tell after a few minutes of looking and inhaling each individual sent, that was a bull like how they had in cartoons always chasing down red sheets in cartoons. He wondered if Cody would chase him and quickly checked he wasn't wearing any red, no that was good.Geia was a snowy owl. He'd seen one at the zoo and Fluer was a sunk like in his book, but he was only confused because skunks were meant to smell bad yet he only smelled so pleasantly of apples.
"I'm a mole." he told him holding up his sharp claws as evidence. Before using them o scratch behind his ears. "Mole's live underground in clever tunnels but my tunnels collapse sometimes so I don't." he told himm frowning a little. He was working on that at least.

Ligeia nodded his head looking down at the bracelet before he gave a nod of his head, "Yeah, it was a gift from him." The owl said as he lifted his gaze to Fleur and then asked, "How did you know?" It couldn't have just been a guess unless the skunk boy was psychic or something? Naw, couldn't be.
He looked over to Taren as he spoke, "Mole? Oh! I know you. Well... not know you but know of you. You took a class with my Dad." He said, wings giving a little flutter. Was always nice to put a face with the notes that his father had laying around all over the house.
Vorel looked over at the silver as she introduced herself, "Argent. Nice to meet." he then lifted a clawed hand to his chest, "Vorel." He said, giving his name then looked over to the copper dragon to see if he would give his name as well.

"Mole's what'cha get on yer skin sometimes I thought...", Cody reached up to scratch at his head, moving the hat around a bit. He still carried one of Legia's feathers in the strap- his trophie from way back when he first met the owl boy and managed to plow him right to the ground. He'd let him keep it and either Cody forgot that it was there entirely or still felt very proud of the little accomplishment of his youth, "Ah whatever." He shrugged a bit. It wasn't a big deal if he didn't know what everyone was in his opinion- though with Winter working with animals he very likely should have been less oblivious.
"So 'Geia what'cha doin' at the mall?" He smirked a bit, folding his arms, "Gettin' yer nails done?" It was just a joke though sadly it might have been true, "Ya should come an' we can show mole kid here how tah pick up some chicks. CHICKS." He grinned a bit more, snapping his tail sharply. "This place is always crawlin' with 'em. Shoppin' an' they come 'ere in groups. One for you, me, and mole..." He looked over to the skunk kid, "Ya got some friends?"
The copper dragon glanced between the two, Silver and Vorel? He could remember that, He called me Tex. He offered, Hatched not too long ago.

Fleur giggled girlishly remembering how he had met Chath. "He was looking for a present for you and wanted my opinion," he explained. "Good thing I came along - he was about to go into a lingerie store." Even he knew that would have been a bad idea, especially after he later found out that Chath had not yet confessed his feelings to Ligeia and especially now that he knew exactly who Chath had been buying it for. Female lingerie for a boy? Although...picturing it, it would look good on Geia...
The skunk blinked as he was distracted by Cody's question. "Oh...no, not really," he admitted, his tail lowering a little as he was reminded of that upsetting truth. Sure, he had many acquaintances from around D-Corp, but...friends? "Just Dawnie - that's what I call her 'cause her name means Silver Dawn."
Argent was torn from her shock when she heard Fleur blurt this out, and she whined and flopped melodramatically behind him. She hated her name so much - it was redundant! A silver dragon named "Silver"? Why, why, WHY could she not have been given an original name? Vorel was original! Keir was original! Even Tex sounded better!
"Dawnie, you look like a wet noodle," Fleur stated plainly, only adding to his poor dragon's chagrin.

Taren brightened and nodded at Geia's estimation. "yes, yes the man with bright red hair." Well since that was the only male teacher he had had any lessons with he assumed that must be correct. Geia's father was nice so no wonder the owl boy was pleasant to.
Still he wasn't sure if he liked Cody over much, no matter what Geia said. He just didn't seem to watch what he was saying to well. He absently scratched his arm with long claws. Chicks? Why would he want a baby chicken unless he meant...girls?!? taren curled his nose up a little. He had a few girls he knew as friends bt he guessed he really didn't look at anyone in that way yet. He knew Tyven, she was scary bt nice to him. And Alora the dove girl, very sweet and quite. Still he didn't look at any of them like that.
He glanced over at the dragons and felt a small longing and a little jealousy, he wished his egg would hatch, but it was just taking a while that was all just had to be patient right?

Ligeia couldn't help but give a bit of a laugh, "Naw, I wouldn't force my crazy nails on anyone else that wouldn't be at all nice of me." He said, he could only imagine the look of a persons face if he went in for something like that and presented the person with his talons. No doubt they would have a heart attack...
His train of thought sort of derailed at what Fleur said next nearly choking, "H-He was w-where now?" He studdered out, lignerie store? Now why in the world would Chath check there for a gift? He had to admit that he was much happier with the bracelet then with anything that could have been gotten in a place like that, "Well... thank you for helping him out."
He tried to force down his blush and turned to Taren, "Ahh... I saw the notes he had from your class and was kinda hoping to meet you. Always nice to put names together with faces and stuff." He was glad to talk about his father isntead of the lingerie thing.
How embaressing, at least Fleur was there to steer him in the right direction.
"Tex." Vorel said as if committing the name to memory then gave a smile to the Silver dragon, "Name is nice." He told her, "Vorel good but... not very strong a name." After all what male wanted a name that simply meant 'beautiful'?

"Well that's alright." Cody shrugged a bit at Fleur, "Was hopin' ya could hook us up with some o' yer girly friends. These boys-" he jerked a thumb towards Geia and Taeren, "They need some guidence in gettin' some girls. Put some hair on their chests ya know." He grinned, reaching forward to thud both guys on their backs, "There's a food court 'ere too. Nuff free refills tah start up a half decent burpin' contest."
Tex chuckled a bit. He knew Fleur was a male, dispite the perfume there was a distinct smell between a male and a female. However, the dragon had no way to communicate that and even if he could- it was amusing. Cody didn't seem to have any interst in the skunk child, didn't have the right figure, wasn't old enough. A few factors. "Vorel good name." He nodded a bit, "Both good names. Fits well."
Cody paused a bit, looking a bit between Legia and Fleur, "....Th' girly underpant store?" He looked to the side, his one eye narrowing as he slowly trailed his gaze back to the owl boy. "....YA ALREADY GOT A GIRL! Yew dog, havin' yer buddy go an' get sexy clothin' on." He offered another hearty thump to the owl's back, "Good fer you! An' I was startin' to worry."
