"Do all your quarrels end in a pile of bones, Savryn? I should think not or you wouldn't have two living brothers, now would you?" Glancing her over. "I think I'd have fun quarreling with you." He wasn't surprised over her last statement since she was probably the most close-mouthed female he'd ever come across. "Perhaps one day I'll gain enough favor to pry one loose."
Lerciana took the bundle from her and gave a nod. "He was given a specialized potion that should help counter the effect of the sun on him whether or not he's clothed. We typically wear much less out here for ease in getting around not really because of the heat." Her fingers brushed over the pendant slowly and she glanced back up at the other dragon. "I'll see that he gets these and knows precisely who they come from. Does the pendant have special meaning?"
He knew this was going to happen and that Seon was not helping. "Were almost married," he snapped angrily at it then glanced in surprise at Kaznec. "The marking ritual was one half of the ceremony, dragonlord. Were you not aware of that?" And they both knew that Fellnathir was just going to have to swallow her pride and allow the white dragoness in to see him or there was only going to be more trouble. "You can see her as soon as you feel able. I'd rather have her see you looking healthy than pale and shaky as you are now."
"He knew! He looooovvveeeessssss her. Lots and lots and lots. At least Lynnie says so. Don't you Kazzy?"

Hunter was back shipside, on the deck with Des, talking to her in hushed tones and glancing to the opening to below deck.
"Alright. but watch her. and make sure that Gem finds out what we an about her little 'treasure'. I don't trust these dragons any farther then I can throw them. Make sure the crew rotates shifts for me. Richards is staying near gem and the rest to monitor progress among them as well. everything is in order, here, correct?"
Des nodded.
"the silver down below is being civil, at least. wether or not they'll let Kanzec see her is a different story, especially with the elder silver. I'm not particularly liking it here anymore then you are. these golds and silvers are a lot more elitist and xenophobic then I thought they'd be."

"Not all of them. Deacon is a perfect example of that." Smirking lightly and giving a little shrug. "You'd at least give me a run for my money. Be it with words or with blades, at least I'd like to think so." So he wasn't so bad to hang around she supposed. "Break your your crowbar then Kelligrin. You may need it. But who knows...enough effort may be worth such things."
"He just knows that it's meant to keep the one who wears it safe. He had it first and the gave it to me, I think it's his turn to have it again." Yes with Kaznec comfort very much came from objects. What little she could offer was more than enough in her opinion. "Thank you very much for this."
'Because I said so' wasn't going to fly and she knew it. But she watched him passing a look over her, paying it no particular mind other than it was just his own curiosity. Her bladed tail snaked behind her in angry motions at all of this. Yes she knew that she would have to give into the questioning young dragonlord's wants...least she feared that he would do something that would cause himself further harm. Dyranthirim spoke the words she would have to vomit up though, saving her the trouble. A snort and a nod, "Eat something, and she can see you..." Petting over Cyvalor lightly, perhaps to assure the little dragonling that no one was mad enough to eat him despite the atmosphere.

Logan nodded a bit as he moved in the spot he sat on, time seemed to be still in this place for him. Though he chuckled a little before he gave another fang like grin. "A great answer from a woman such as yourself Gem." It was, she was different for a pirate Logan knew that, and he was glad he asked her if he could come along he probably would of jumped planes by this time if he didn't. "You can ask questions about me if you want, this doesn't have to go one way."

"Because I really don't care what you're all about. Are you just dying to tell me about yourself or something? I never ask questions, just to ask questions or hear myself talk. And frankly, what you're all about isn't essential to you being here, or on my ship for that matter." Shrugging nonchalantly before examining her nails a moment. "This world is not full of puppies and hugs and friendliness. The more one knows about you, the more harm they can cause you. May want to remember that."

Logan glared at Gem from where he sat, he knew in a place like this either people joined together and help one another or perish alone, it had happened before. "No, I'm not dying to tell you anything about myself, I just find it not fair to ask you anything while I don't get asked in return." Still he didn't care that Gem was trying to 'teach him a lesson', she just came off like a total b***h and what he thought about her seem to change somewhat from her response. Still, if she was keen on pushing that kind of thought then she better remember it when it all goes down in the end, who knows where everyone will be once everything was said and done. "I know what the world is like Gem, and I wasn't asking for or wanting to reveal deep information, just something to pass the time. But since things seem more different to you then fine by me." With a small sigh Logan got up and brush off his robes before he looked down at Gem and gave a light nod. "I'm off for a bit, need to strech my legs, see you around Capitan." With his arm in his robes Logan took off toward the ships, his mind bored and he felt like he was stuck in his cave years ago but this time he was with more than just Bane, he was with a bunch of people who didn't give a damn at all.

"So very sad he's the exception to the rule there." Smirking behind her hair and continuing his oiling as well as making sure she was doing her own properly. "I can be anything you want me to be, Vryn. All you have to do is ask." Quieting for a moment and then lightly brushing his finger up over her arm just to mess with her and test her reaction.
"If you're sure." She didn't really agree since as a Rider dragon, regardless of how much time she'd spent in the actual encampment, she was in more danger by default. She had a feeling Kaznec might see it the very same way as well. "You're welcome, Jaebelltiah. Do you have any other questions?"

"Touchy touchy." She snickered and shook her head. This was no place for soft hearted fools who were easily offended by words. He was already dead if his attitude was going to be like that now wasn't he? Oh well, wasn't her concern now was it?"
"I didn't say he's the exception to the rule. Just that he's not a pile of bones...yet. Besides, his little human mind will have a fit when he finds out what a certain trinket does. Although I'm sure he'll be quite angry with me for setting him up." A chuckle to that one, oh yes the game would be fabulous." Smirk, "Anything? Careful what you say, Kelligrin." Fingers stopped in their motion a moment though as he...what was he doing now? Well he had oil on his finger...that much she knew by the slick motion. A slight tuck of her arm closer to her body before trying to pay no mind and continued working leather.
"No...there's more important things at hand. Though if you're willing later and no one else is, I'd very much appreciate talking with you again. Right now though, Kaznec comes before personal curiosity."

Kaz didn't like being kept in this tent and being stared down by two strangers, being told that he couldn't see Jae. He had priorities and since he wasn't unconscious anymore, well that meant she was at the top of the list by default. Throat drying up again, a side effect of the heat or his mildly rising anxiety, he took another gulp of water before turning his attention back to Areesa. Sometimes he couldn't understand a lot of what she said or screamed... But ok, he knew who "Lynnie" was. "Yes, the Laerethe informed us of the method and the consequences. The marking ritual was done to protect her while we were in potential Rider territory." And it had worked, and then they had ended up here. How and where exactly still quite unknown to him. Nodding to both dragons though, he glanced around the small space. He wasn't sure how well he could stomach food right now, he still felt disoriented and off balance for some reason... But if those were the terms, he'd oblige. "I will try. I have one question though. What happened to my clothes?" His uniform especially. Could not lose that.

That left promising possibilities, now didn't it? "I'm not going to ask for any details of your plan but I am going to sit back and enjoy watching it come to fruition." Giving her a grin and then noting her reaction as well as the slick line now evident on her skin from his fingers. "I know what I say and what it means, Vryn. Just remember that."
"Just ask for Lerciana if you can't find me later." Giving a nod and taking the clothes and the pendant over to the tent where she knew the dragonlord was being watched. Bowing her head in deference, she cleared her throat and caught Dyranthirim's attention who obligingly headed over to her. "These are from Jaebelltiah for him. Please give them to him."
"Lerciana, you know better than to defy a direct order. Nell is not going to be happy with you." But he took the clothes and the pendant and gave a nod then directed her back out of the tent. "These are from Jaebelltiah, Kaznec. I'm not sure if they were the clothes you were wearing on the ship or not but you were stripped when your temperature continued to climb. An attempted solution of sorts, though it didn't work for long."
"You know little and say even less. Those in command will do what is best for him." Eilynne's disembodied voice came across loud and clear to them though without a hint of where she actually was. "It will not do to interfere."

"We can enjoy his squirming together." Shrugging though, eyes blankly watching her lap where the leather sat with her fingers working oils still. "I never doubted you can understand the sheer meaning as well as the deeper meaning of things. Though just like D'vinns...Intharas never make threats, only promises."
She tilted her head, giving a snort as Dyranthirim turned his attention elsewhere...and had items to come back with. Oh whomever that was, they were going to get a work over. She had enough going on around here and she didn't need more. "Yes...when we got to you, you were both stripped down no doubt in attempt to try and keep you from cooking yourself and probably her as well." Crossing her arms and tail curling behind her tightly as if she was clenching her fist. Reaching down to Cyvalor whom she had set down, she pet between his hair before moving over to some bins, coming back with something akin to a hunk of jerky. Ripping off a smaller piece, she handed it to the little gold while the other was handed to the red and black. "Another reason you may feel bad is because that marking that you did indeed do, has worn off now. You need not worry about it anymore and your body will readjust quickly. Now no more questions. Eat."

It made sense to him why he would have been stripped down but whether it was because of modesty or simply habit, he wanted his clothes back. Thus blinking up to the gold dragon at the almost instantaneous response he got, he took the small heap of clothing from him. Oh yes, these were his but they smelled a little like... cold wind or something. Like they had been left out in the air and tossed around a bit. He put on his pants and boots without much difficulty but decided to leave the shirt for now, in case he felt hot and his body needed to readjust again. Besides, neither of them looked like they'd be willing to help him with things, especially not the silver. He snapped the pendant around his neck as well, fearing he might lose it otherwise because his belt wasn't in the pile, and then took the piece of jerky from her, biting off a piece and fingering the pendant for a moment. Truthfully, he wasn't prepared for the marking to wear off so quickly... And it wasn't good news either because who knew where they were and where they were going. Riders had colonies all over the maps, especially uncharted areas. He had questions but they were perhaps better left for later...

She had no idea how true her words actually were. He had quite the bone to pick with the Captain though that would have to wait for another time. Work was more important as was Savryn's safety. "We're too nice for threats, Vryn. But we never break our promises either."
He took the jerky with a happy trilling purr-like noise all of their kind knew how to make and took a hasty bite then grinned up at her. She was a lot nicer than some of the others had said.
He didn't want to talk about the marking, didn't really want to think about the implications or how dangerous it could be to leave it unfinished. Seeing him eat though, he felt honorbound to hold up his end of the bargain and he left the tent, seeking out the white dragoness. "Jaebelltiah? Kaznec is requesting your presence. We're willing to let you see him as long as you keep it short and don't upset him. If you're ready, follow me, please."

Des gave a little smirk at goldie coming to get Jae, but said nothing. things might go a little smother for them two right now if that silver b***h didn't get too uppity. what a piece of work she was. though she turned her attention to the little blue and patted her head a bit.
"No need to stay like that. you did all the work that needed done for now, you can change if you want. might make you feel more comfortable for that matter."
Hunter was inspecting this large shard, using a jeweler's eyepiece. something had to be up. this thing had to be cracked or broken or something for her to give it up so quickly. It had to be double the size of the ones that the little starry eyed pest and taken from him before at least. there had to be a catch someplace.

"Something to be proud of." Nodding lightly and then looking to his direction, offering up whatever piece of now slightly slick but soft leather she had been given. "Good?" And absentmindedly rubbing at her cheek which of course transferred a little of that oil, the boost in scent from being clsoe to her nose make her startle a little. Nice, but strong.
She watched him dress, making sure that he wouldn't topple over or anything before she let her guard down some and decided that she better steel herself as her partner in crime so to speak wandered off...no doubt to get that dragoness. Seeing them both eating she nodded lightly and waited..."Trust me, you'll feel fine by tomorrow I think." Taking a moment to break apart the dragonlings portion again into a smaller one easier to handle for the little dragon.
Jaebelltiah was picking at her food lightly, not really eating too much and more of just sitting. Well...at least she knew one or two would talk to her with enough prompting. A jump though at the voice that beckoned her and she only nodded to him...before more or less scrambling up to follow him eagerly. Being led into the tent she restrained the want to jump his person...seeing as he was eating and would probably choke and that wasn't good. Or he may be sore, or still sick, or... "Kaznec." Oh scew it. Thusly more or less jumping him with a full body hug of arms, wings, tail and all. It was just nice to see him up again...well, sitting not exactly up yet.
Her tail had been very interesting until the petting, which got a nuzzle and one of those long looks of hers that meant she was processing what was said to her. Puff of sapphire mist later and there was her little self...whom promptly fell over and got herself right back up. "Rest time?"
