Vorel lifted his head after getting a good scratching before he got up and walked over so that he could sit down with Keir. Ligeia was going to serve their lunch now! The duck, frog, and the fish weren't really all that filling to someone his size so he was looking forward to what his owl had brought for the two dragons.
Ligeia looked over at Chath, head tilting to the side, "How about first I serve Vorel and Keir, then I can help you take a look at your leg." He was going to help Chath with that before before his wing had gotten squished, he'd been a bit distracted after that.

Keir yawned they day had been....eventful to say the least, and if was probably the first time he really got along with another dragon. Which was amazing to say the least. He normally got other dragons annoyed or angry at him.
Chath slumped into this sitting position again feeling a bit like a kid. He wanted to help, he really did. It felt weird to have someone who jsut became his boyfriend tending to him like his mother would. Ah well, that was Ligeia for you. He forced a smile as he nodded his head.
"Yah sure, if you need help just ask." he prompted again.

Ligeia got the smaller of the coolers and brought it over to Keir and Vorel, "Its cold but not frozen." He said to them, not sure how Keir liked his meat. He reached into the cooler to take out one of the large pieces to lay in front of the black then repeated the process with Vorel. The frost dragon grabbed hold of the hunk with his hands to drag it over for a good freezing before he set to gnawing on it.
The owl smiled then walked over to Chath, he knelt down next to him before looking down at his hands. He seemed to be mentally debating something before finally peeling off his gloves. They weren't normally something he took off for reason that were hidden under them but as they had the meat juice on them he couldn't leave them on if he were to tend to Chath's leg.
Ligeia had the same sort of nails on his fingers as he had on his feet, dark black talons. These ones though seem to be trimmed back and filed down to a meticulious degree as if he didn't want for them to get at all long. It was a sort of obession he had, "Alright, shall we look at your leg then? See how its doing." The bleeding seemed to have stopped if nothing else.

Keir watched as his food was being served to him, what service...the owl boy should come over more often. He nodded his head breifly to the boy before dipping his head down to sniff the mystery meat. Must of been from a larger animal. Most likely a cow. Biting down into it he chewed slowly to allow the acid to corrod the meat that was in his mouth. He watched Vorel make his food into one giant meatsicle and wondered breifly what the benifits where to freezing his food first before eating.
Chath had to admit this was probably the first time that he had seen Geia with his gloves off. He wondered why he wore them i the first place. He nodded his head, helping Geia take the wrapping off. The bleeding had certianly stopped if anything the slash looked like a wound that had been a couple days ago rather than a couple hrs. It didn't really need the wrapping at all, in fact he winced becuase parts of it were healing into the skin. Having removed it the would bleed a tiny bit, but only in the spots where it had been torn from.
He reached out to touch Geia'shand lightly. "Why do you wear the gloves?" he asked his fingers touching skin very lightly. "You have such pretty slender hands."

There were lots of grinding, crunching sounds, and along with the occasional happy growl coming from Vorel as he ate. The other stuff was good but tasty, frozen solid things this size were just the best!
Geia looked the wound over seeming to be totally amazed by how quickly it had healed up. He got the water so that he could rinse it carefully of the bit of dried blood that stuff to it and the small amount it bled from the removing of the bandages before he nodded, "It looks pretty good." He said, happily.
He blinked then when Chath touched his bare hand almost jerking it away but resisted as he looked up at the newt boy then sighed, "I don't like." He murmured quietly.

Keir watched the pair in interest. Humanoid interactions always were strange. Why would the owl hate his claws? what was wrong with claws? He looked down at his own and gave a draconic shrug before continueing on with his meal.
Chath could understand not likeing something about yourself. He hated how sensitive his skin was, and sometimes his tail got in the way but to go to the lengths of hiding like hands...it jsut didn't compute. He took the boys hand in his own, he could feel the well manicured claws touch his skin, it sent a shiver through him. It reminded him a bit of Keir's claws.
"You have very nice hands Geia. At least I think so." he said with a smile and then lifted the other hand of Geia's to his lips to kiss lightly. He then looked back up brightly. He liked making people feel better about themselves.

Ligeia didn't miss the shiver as his talons touched Chath and he looked down at the ground then gave a little sigh, "I... when I was little I hurt my father." He murmured, telling him something he'd never told anymore before. Even his father didn't know why he kept his hands covered all the time because to Orpheus the wounds had healed and he'd forgotten. Ligiea couldn't though, to forget something that had been so scary for someone so little.
He was... shocked to say the least when he felt Chath kiss his hand, tried to studder something out, a response maybe but didn't seem to be able to come up with anything at the moment. So he starred instead.

Chath looked to Geia understand by his body language that this was a sensitive topic. And he looked so sad.
"I doubt you did it on purpose.." he ventured carefully, his hand giving Geia's a squeeze for reassurance. Though he wondered if he had done something wrong by kissing Geia's hand. THe boy was looking at him rather shocked like.

Ligeia shook his head rapidly, "No! N-Not on purpose." He said in a rush then took a breath to steady himself, "Just... thought that if I kept them trimmed, kept them covered I wouldn't hurt anyone else." He didn't want for his talons to hurt anyone again.
He gave a smile then, squeezing Chath's hand back. He didn't seem scared of his talons even after Ligeia told him what they could do, that they were dangerous. Though he supposed his claws were nothing compared to Keir's were they?

Chath grinned at the squeeze back. "The fact you worried about hurting others is a noble thing. But you should be able to like that part of yourself as well." he continued with a nod, sounding like he should venture in a career as a theripist instead of a hero. Probably paid better too.
"I mean my skin produces a toxin when I am nervous, scared or angry. I have a hard time controlling it, so uh...you may want to wash your hands before eating anything." he said with a laugh as he was trying to lighten the mood.

Ligeia looked down at his hands again, wondering if liking that part of himself meant going around without gloves. He wasn't sure if he would be able to do that though, "I... don't know. You may be right but..." He'd hidden them away since he was little, the idea of walking around without gloves now was... scary.
"How do keep from worrying about that?" He asked, seeming quite curious as the newt didn't seem overly worried about his skin or at least that he'd seen.

Er, why didn't he worry about it more? He thought on it and guessed it was becuase he had very minimal physical contact with people, and those he had contact with knew of the problem so took precuations after contact.
"I guess I just don't think of it. It isn't like I am out to hurt people. So it isn't something that is on my mind. And I usually stay clear of people if the problem occurs. Once I get older I should be able to control the toxin better, but as it is right now it just triggers depending on the situation." he explained as best he could.

Didn't think on it? Ligeia was surprised that Chath's answer was so simple as that. He liked it though, "So... then I shouldn't think on it?" He asked, lifting a hand to look it over, opening and closing it. After all he did keep them trimmed back so... maybe the added protection of the gloves on top of that was to much?
"I will have to try that. I don't know though how brave I am." As it was though with how his gloves were he really couldn't wear them so he was being forced to be brave. For now at least.

With another squeeze he was wondering if he should worry about it more. He then nodded his head at Ligeia's remark. "Well, why not just try it around me? If you feel uncomfertable with them off just try it for short periods of time. " He suggested. It would be like testing water, Chath had to do trial and error on how often he would go without misting himself. Which reminded him.
"Er...is my spray bottle in one of the coolers? I think i need to spritz myself." he said his fingers did feel a bit sweaty...but was the becuase he was holding Geia's hands? "And you should probably wash your hands.." he said with an apologetic smile.

Ligeia nodded as he moved to the cooler, digging aroung through them so that he could fine Chath's spray bottle and handed it over. Once he did he got up and moved over to the water's edge to rinse his hands off. He looked them over before drying them off on his shirt before joining Chath again. He could do this, just have his hands uncovered while he was with Chath. Then again when he was with Chath he could do a lot of things that normally he couldn't. He didn't mind Ligeia wearing clothing he was comfortable in even so... going without gloves sounded like a fair compromise.
Maybe he could try doing that as well when they went out next too?
When he got back Ligeia sat down and set to dishing up food for himself and Chath, "I brought a lot of different things so you can eat what you like."
