"Baroness is my second son's dragon, a wyvern and a real brat." He said, then shook his head, "From what I gather the kids give them a name, dragons have their own names but they are kept secret and only they know them. That is what I've had heard at least, I'm not exactly sure but you can ask Peri, hes a teacher in charge of learning about dragons."
"Well if the sweater gets to long you can add legs holes to and make it into a body suit instead. Well once you figure out the trick to sleeves that is."

"Ohh..." Fleur beamed, excited now. "Maybe I'll go look at some books for names when I get home!" He nodded at the comment about the sweater. "Bah said she was going to try to find some books on just sweaters for me." He hoped she got them today - he was anxious to start over again and figure out what he did wrong.
His shoulders now rested, Fleur hopped back up on his hands with little effort, instincts guiding him. "What do I do now?" As much fun as he was having just sitting and talking with his teacher, he knew he needed to do something else.

"That sounds good, I wish you luck with finding the perfect name for your dragon and with mastering sleeves." He said then tilted his head to the side thoughtfully, "Thats a good question, after all your doing quite well as it is. Where to go next though. Hmmm." He wasn't exactly sure, he'd shown him the hand stand stance the skunks like him used, helped him to figure out some of his 'triggers' and talked about lots of other interesting things. Now where too...

Fleur tilted his head, his tail resting over his head again. "You said skunks do this to spray?" he asked, curious now. "How?" He was not oblivious to the fact that he no longer reeked of his natural odor and was very thankful for that though he had no idea what he did. Was relaxing and getting his mind on other things really that helpful?

"I am thinking that its like with snakes, you use the glands... though. I wonder. Can you concentrate on them?" He asked, wondering if the boy could feels them rather like another part of the body... he thought on that then waited. Fleur would have to answer or they would have to figure out how to 'concentrate' on them next.

Fleur nodded, an awkward movement given his current position. Now that he knew about his tensing up releasing the spray, he knew he had in the past actually felt the spray come out of the glands. "I've just never done it on purpose before," he stated, blushing once more. He really did not want to either, but if Orpheus insisted, he would. It had been drilled into his head so many times that spraying was bad, the thought of doing it on purpose was appalling.

"Alright, well being able to concentrate or not upon them is actually really helpful. It means that you can control if you do or don't want to spray." Orpheus said, that was good to know, "For now I won't have you try to hit any targets with it. Maybe the next class you have with me or another of the skills teachers though it will be good to work on using it, aiming it. It sounds odd yes but the more you practice with skill the better you will be at being able to control it."

"Ohh. Okay!" Fleur answered, dropping back down to his feet again since Orpheus was not going to make him spray, a fact for which Fleur was exponentially greatful. He always felt horribly ashamed when he sprayed and doubted he would feel any better if it was on purpose for his teacher. "So I just need to work on...finding other things to focus on?" Fleur tilted his head, his ears twitching. He supposed he could do that easily. He would very much like to continue not worrying about his stench.

"Yeah. Just think of your scentglands as being like any other body part. To begin with little kids need to concentrate to be able to do things like moving their hands and getting them to do what is needed, then it gets to the point where you can wave, snap, and all that without even thinking about it. Will be the same for your scentglands soon enough."

"Ohh!" Fleur drawled, his blue eyes wide as he looked up at Orpheus. When worded like that, it did not sound hard at all, and that was very encouraging. He still hated the stench and hated the fact that he made it in the first place, but the knowledge that he could teach himself to control it to the point where he did not reek anymore was very comforting. "Thank you!" Fleur beamed up at his teacher, feeling a lot better than when he had first come.

"Not a problem, if you need anything else or have any other questions you can feel free to send them my way. I am always around D-Corp for classes or planning classes." Well that and the fact that he lived here but you know... he started back the way they had been walking, "This way. You know I think I have something perfect for you." He said, then explained further, "I give out trinkets to all my students who show up for class and do well in it."
Yes, 'trinkets'. Easier to call them that then what they really were.
The class was about done and he had something waiting for Fluer.

"R-Really?" Fleur boggled at Orpheus, caught off guard by that. He goes to class, learns how to do a handstand, learns how to make himself not stink, has a lot of fun doing so, and he gets a present for it all? The skunk idly wondered if he could come back a lot more. "B-But I don't have anything for you," he pointed out plaintively. Stevie gave him random gifts all the time, but Fleur still liked being able to return the gesture and often did so with Stevie by drawing her pictures or baking her favorite brownies (albeit he needed Chrysler's help with that).

"Anything for me?" He murmured then smiled, "I had a student bring me a cake once for thanks. He ended up dropping it on my one of my sons." He couldn't help but laugh at that though, Ter had been so tiny and cute back then. And quiet... and less of an ego... He paused when they made it back to the door their walk had started from, kneeling down to pick up a bag that leaned against the wall and dug something out. "Here you go, you can put some of your perfume in it." He said, holding it out.

Fleur took the bauble and held it up to the light, staring at it intently as he turned it over in his hands. "It's so pretty!" he squealed with delight. He loved blue almost as much as he loved purple, and this was very pretty to him. "Thank you!" Fleur bounced a little and impulsively hugged Orpheus' leg, his tail swaying happily.

"Your very much welcome Fleur, I am glad that you like it." He said, quite happywith the boy's reaction. He returned the hug and then asked, "Shall we head to the cafeteria to meet up with your guardian?"
(( Can end it here if you like ))
