"Well I don't know personally since I was born after they had passed on but my parents discribed it as an extended family. They helped and cared for one another, trying to make life easier for everyone."
Lysander chewed his last piece of fish as he thought about them. He knew so much about dragons that had been dead long before he was even an egg and yet he felt like he knew them personally from the stories his parents told him, "I just wish I could have known them all instead of just hearing about them."

"Yeah..." Simia agreed softly, laying her head down on her paws wearily. She yawned. "Stupid plague. I wish it had never happened..." She yawned again, widely, and to her embarressment, she felt her eyes beginning to close. She pressed a bit on her injured paw, the pain causing tears to come to her eyes, but also keeping her awake.
"So..." She began, then stopped. She had no idea what to say. She was drawing a total blank. Usually she could just babble on for hours, asking the male she was with questions about himself, or just chattering on about nothing in particular... But with Lysander, she couldn't shake the feeling that he might get bored with that. "Is there anything you want to know about me?"
Once again, the question surprised her. She usually kept conversation as far away from herself as possible... And now she was inviting him to ask questions? Something must be wrong... Maybe Simia was getting sick...
Maybe it was the gopher.

Lysander tilted his head to the side and thought for a second. What did he want to know about her. Blurting out, "Do you want a family?"
Blushing bright red, " I don't mean to assume you would want to have one with me or anything. Just in general, do you want to settle down and have a family? I do, some day, if I can find someone who'll have me and love me like the way I would want to love them."

A lazy smile crept onto Simia's face. Oh dear. She was tired. When Simia got tired, she tended to say things... without thinking... Hopefully she wouldn't embarress herself too badly in front of Lysander.
"Yes, I'd like a family," she smiled. Then she giggled. "And it's all right; having a family with you would probably be nice... And I'll have you and love you, and I hope you love me..."
An instant later, Simia jerked upright, blushing bright red. Oh, gosh. Had she really just said that? How pathetic. How pathetic and stupid and GAH!!! How could she say something like that in front of him?
I blame the gopher meat, Simia thought to herself as she looked down at the ground in shame.
"I... I mean," she stammered, not daring to look at Lysander.

Lysander looked towards Simia, hope filling his eyes, "Do you mean that? You could love me like I could love you? I want it if you do. In the short time I've spent with you I've never felt as connected with another as I am with you. "
Stands up and steps hesitantly closer, "Would you be willing to be with me? Raise a family with me? It's your choice Meeya, only you can decide what you want."

Simia looked up, eyes sparkling with tentative excitement.
"Yes... " She trailed off slowly, then grinned. "Yes. I could. I do. And I want it, too... And as for feeling connected?" Her grin grew wider. "Same here."
She chuckled softly, and her tone became a bit more serious.
"Lysander... You're... The only dragon who I can be myself around... At least you're the only one in a really long time... And... I love you. I want to be with you... I want a family... And Kudos to you for letting me decide. I've met too many males who were all like, 'I want you to be my mate, so it's settled'." Simia laughed ruefully. "But... I don't think stuff like that will ever be a problem with you... I love you."
Gopher must have love-inducing qualities... Simia would have to make it a regular part of her diet from now on.
((YAYBABYTIME! xd ))

Lysander finished moving towards Simia, nuzzling her gently, "And I love you too."
