It took a lot of bandages to cover a dragon.
Luckily, Azucar wasn't overly wounded, he didn't have as many acid burns as the others, due to his rock hard scales, but he was still grumpy and aching. It made sense. Tyven and Azucar were a real pair of anti-heroes, who couldn't seem to help but help others. Unfortunately, they still weren't horribly personable.
Tyven was alone, Azucar forced to stay in his sandbox and sun himself, trying to ignore the irritating Shilling, while the 5'10" preteen gathered supplies. Face blank, she grabbed another box of bandage tape to add to the growing pile in her cart.
It had been a week since the events in D-corp.

"I can walk on my own." Geia said, giving a bit of a groan as they moved along towards the store. In fact it would probably be for the best given a dragon Vorel's size didn't need to be walking around in a store, in fact he should wait outside but he seemed to be more and more underfoot of late... very much playing the part of the overly protective dog. It was upon the Frost Dragon's hounding and insistance that the owl boy ride instead of walk, "I promise my legs weren't injured!"
Vorel paused to turn his head and looked the owl over closely, eyes narrowing a bit as he did so, "Everything else was." He said, walking along again.
Ter looked up at his brother too, "That wasn't funny." He told him, tempting to reach out and give him a punch... though for the moment he would hold off as he didn't want Vorel to bite him, "You needed to get out and about, the fact that your getting upset over being unable to take notes is rather sad. Take advantage of the injury and relax or something." He complained. He'd spent the morning watching Ligeia trying to relearn writing with his other hand because he'd gotten a new massive tome of magic and... well the owl failing and getting frustrated over studying forced him to act.
He was a good brother! Only a good brother would be caught dead hanging out with his siblings.
On the opposite side of Ter from Vorel and his brother was Baroness who was looking rather happy, today may be the day she decided that she would make Ter pay her back for the services rendered in his name. Her tail swished behind her as they arrived at long last to where they were going. The down side to her being unable to fly was the long walks...
"Alright, Vorel you and Baroness will stay outside." Geia said then with some help from his brother got down off of his dragon's back, "Behave and I am serious! Stay outside!"
Both dragons looked disapointed when their partners went inside without them.

Tyven caught sight of them from the corner of her eye, and although she wasn't sociable, she recognized Ligeia as the winged D-corp project that she'd carried to safety, much like she'd done for Chath. It hadn't been very hard, considering the little owl was so short. Pausing her shopping, she figured she could at least say hello, and find out about Chath, one of her few friends.
The serious, purple-haired snake approached the group, and nodded a greeting. She'd never known either of them personally, they'd never spoken and didn't even know Ligeia's name. "Are you well, bird?" ... So she didn't get points for tact. Although she could sweet-talk dragons like no tomorrow, Tyven had trouble with her own peers.
At least she looked good?
Lavender eyes shifted from the owl to his scaled kin, the only other snake she'd ever met. She knew his name. "Terpsichore." She had tasted his venom before. Zyanya's 'boyfriend'?

Ligeia paused seeing purple out of the corner of his eye and then turned his head quickly upon the approach of the very, very tall girl. He looked up at her when she addressed him and blinked before nodding rapidly, "I will be fine given some time to heal." He'd gotten some broken bones but it was much better then what could have happened had Aullol been so inclined to follow up her attack.
"I... wanted to thank you. I... you carried me from where I fell, I remember the purple." He said, it was one of few things he recalled from when the dragon hit him with her tail and when he woke up next to Chath with the techs coming over to them.
Ter looked at her when she said his name, starring a bit in wide eyed surprise, "I prefer Ter, Terpsichore is so damn long." He told her having no idea why such a name was choosen for him. He shifted his coils since it seemed they were going to stop for a bit so he could sit back on them, "And you are...?" She knew his name and he had no idea who she was. He recognized her though, she was there the day that black went all crazy wasn't she? In fact she was pretty close to the front lines. Baroness would be so jealous...

"Tyven. I prefer Tyven." Her slight smile was almost friendly, and she held out her scaled left hand to shake his. Returning her attention to Ligeia, she dismissed his thank you. "Your friend, the cheetah, would have found a way to do it if I had not." Sahra, she was speaking of. Apparently, though, the other girl had lacked Tyven's strength.
Tyven generally didn't use nicknames, not for those she wasn't close too. So far, only Altessa had received one, and that had been when they were just toddlers. She was also slightly displeased by the other snake's vulgarity upon just meeting her. She was a cold, distant, polite girl. A reptile. "Zyanya has mentioned you. You are her... boyfriend...and gang member, yes?"

"It is very nice to meet you Tyven, my name is Ligeia Solon." Ligeia looked at her hand then held out his own left hand since then other arm was in a sling and shook her hand though a bit of awkwardly, "I will have to send my thanks to Sahra too then." He felt it was in order, that they would both be so kind as to help him when he needed it. He was in awe of them, what he'd done was reacting to the situation, he'd not been brave just... didn't think.
Ter wanted to groan, why was it Ligeia seemed to sparkle when he was talking to people... he felt the overwhelming urge once again to give him a punch in the arm to turn the sparkles off.
"What? Ohh. You've met Z? Boyfriend yes... well I think yes..." He really, really had to get a hold of her and figure out what was going on, "As for gang member... don't know if it counts as a gang yet since there are only two people in it. We've supposed to start scouting though."

"The same to you, Ligeia." Tyven's slight smile took on a more amused tint as she raised an eyebrow at Ter, running a hand through her bangs before responding. "Mmmn. I was slightly aware of that. She extended an invitation to me." Tyven certainly had the intimidating, self-assured presence of both a predator and excellent gang member, however, she and Zyanya were very different, and she wasn't sure if being in the same gang would work.
Tyven was, in some ways, a natural leader, and that, mixed with both Zyanya and Terpsichore's egos? Might not be the best combination, without mutual respect. Another pause, and her smile grew, showing the fangs both snakes had. "... You think?" One should know, or not know. The boy didn't seem to sure of himself, nor his relationships.

Ter looked the girl over in a new light, so Z had been scouting already? He gave a nod of his head in response to her words, "Ahh, I see. What did you decide?" He asked curious if she were wanting to join up with them or not. She did seem pretty tough given she'd been in that fight and made it out in better shape them some of those closest to Auloll. A dragon fighter would be cool to have in the gang... if they could get it off the ground, "I think, things are strange at the moment." He gave a shrug, not wanting to talk about personal relationships that he himself was uncertain of.
Ligeia looked back and forth between Ter and Tyven, wait... gang? He'd really hoped that his brother had been joking about all of that. Had hoped he'd done what he often did with things, thought about it, talked about it, then found something else new to work on. It seemed this idea was sticking though, "It kinda sounds a bit dangerous don't you think?" He said to his brother.
Ter gave a hissing sound, this was why it wasn't fun to hang out with Ligeia! He was such a girl... and not even a cool one like Z or this Tyven.
