It was the aftermath... The part of the fight that required someone to clean it up. Who else but the boss to do so? Of course Alan was settled at his desk mulling over bills for damage, reports on the children's mental health, and worst of all... a dragon corporation without dragons. Yes, what on earth was he going to do with that? They'd all LEFT. And as far as he knew there weren't many dragons left on gaia... Sure there was the old history of the "purgatory war" that spanned thousands of species... but... that was all a lost dream. Perhaps he could be diplomatic? Persuede the dragons to return... hm... no that would just cause ill faith to brew... The point where it turned into an attack on the children, even if his arm would regrow, was the point in which there was no returning to the way things had been.
So then what?
Luckally for the head of D-corp, his tireless thoughts would soon be ended... As the time had passed from the event, someone strange had heard about the ordeal. Perhaps strange wasn't the word but... soon enough, a woman entered hte likes of D-corp. "I'd like to see the head of this corporation..." was all she had given, and soon enough, Alan received a message from the tech "A Miss Felicity is here to see you..."
Who was it, he didn't know, but he sa wher in anyways. The woman entered, a tall elegant thing with a cloak... one couldn't help but notice her strong figure... but moreso, Alan noticed those blue eyes, practicaly glowing... and the scara cross them. Blinking a few times he spoke up first "How may I help you?" She smiled. "My name is Felicity... I have a proposition for you, Mr.Rikery." she spoke fluidly, stepping forward with the click clack of her heeled boots.

With a heavy breath, Alan nodded to the strange woman in his office... Well. What choice did they have but to trust her? None... What was a dragon corporation without dragons, in the end? "I suppose... I'll have to introduce you to our "dragon man"" Alan mumbled to himself, shifting in his seat at his desk to reach the phone, tapping a number and... "Peri...? Yes... Alan, I need you to come to my office. Now." with that he hung up, moving his green eyes to her blue.
The blue eyes simply stared back... a small smile on her ruby red lipstick lips. With her left hand, she gave a flip of her hair, idly fussing over the cloak which seemed to stay covering her right half... "I admire your distrust Alan..." she offered breifly, before turning around to await this "dragon man" tapping a boot against the tile.
When Peri answered the phone, it was not anyone he had been expecting a call from. The man was in minor panic mode the whole way to the elevator, praying that Alan wasn't going to give him another child. He hadn't misbehaved lately! He'd been a very good boy!! Well, other than apparently somehow becoming blackmail material for Alan to give his little brother a child... both of whom were now crashing at his apartment until they got their own place. Which Perilas hoped would be very soon.
Finally, the elevator released the man at the proper floor and he trudged his way down to the man's office, still praying to whatever power was over this blasted planet that he was not going to get another kid. His place couldn't hold any more people right now! Reluctantly, the man raised an arm and rapped his knuckles upon the door.
Alan blinked alittle at her comment, such a strange girl... The kind you got a weird vibe from. Not bad... but... Well it was just hard to describe. Luckally for him, the knock came soon enough "Come in." He announced, waiting for his employee to enter the room, offering a small smile. "Felicity... I'd like you to meet Peri, he's the head of the dragon department here, he teaches most of the classes and handles a good deal of the work." Hm, it almost seemed as if Alan was talking highly of the letch... Well, truth be told Peri wouldn't have continued to be there had he not been good at his job, just because he had a few downfalls as a man was no reason to fire him... Not yet anyways. Besides, it was so amusing to see him cringe thinking he'd get another little boy...
Felicity nodded at the man whom entered... "A pleasure..." she offered in a polite tone, though despite the tone and words everything about her seemed to exclaim 'I'm so much better than you' Well... aside from the large scar on the right side of her face it did. And she was, afterall, a bit "bootylicious" one might say.
Peri relaxed a bit upon entering as he saw an unfamiliar woman there with Alan. Surely that meant something good was going to happen, right? After all... her top was rather low cut... boobs... The man forced himself to get back on track. "Nice to meet you." He replied just as politely, though his eyes never got high enough to see the woman's face. If the dragon man's mind had been on anything other than the woman's chest, he would've been shocked to hear Alan speaking so highly of him.
With an effort, Peri turned his gaze towards his boss, his expression clearly demanding an answer on why he was here, besides the obvious one of "to stare obsessively at chest".
Alan couldn't help but narrow his eyes alittle at the man... If he stared any more obviously, he'd have to have been right up on them... for heavens sake... Alan gave a mildly loud clear of his throat. First off he didn't trust her... she even told him not to, which made even less sense... for Peri to simply gawk at her breasts was... shameful for the company, was one way to put it. He responded though, and atleast Peri managed to avert his gaze... "Felicity has kindly offered her services to retreive new dragons for our company..." He glanced to her, suspision raising... she wasn't asking for anything in return.
Felicity looked the man over, while he gawked and stared... It'd been such a long time since she'd received THAT kind of attention... and at first... her expression remained blank... before her left hand raised over her mouth and a small giggle excaped her lips "What a facinating man..." she mumbled, much to Alan's suprise. "And yes... I have means of retreval not avalable to this company... Don't get me wrong, I don't do it for you in the least... But again, I want nothing in return... not yet anyways. Think of it as..." she paused, letting her eyes drift shut with a smile, leaning against the edge of alan's desk "An investment..." After a breif pause her eyes opened again, looking to Peri once more "I suppose I'll be working with you quite often from now on..."
"New dragons?" That was enough to knock thoughts of... well, knockers, out of his head. For the time being, at least. He glanced over at Felicity with a sense of just seeing her as something other than... well, boobs. He let most of the conversation go in one ear and right back out the other, though some of that stuck along the way. A sly grin appeared as the woman spoke of them working together. "I'm looking forward to it." He sauntered over a few steps closer. "So... what kind of dragons are we talking about here?"
An investment... Hmn. Alan remained quiet for the time being, merely keeping a watchful eye on Peri to make sure he didn't "embaress the company" further.
Felicity simply stayed where she was, watching her new "co-worker" with her good eye. Her favored hand shifting into the side of the cloak, digging out a buisness card with nothing more than her name and a phonenumber in red fancy letterings against a gray background. "Kind? Dragons are dragons... There are many kinds... I suppose you'll just have to see, when you're in need of one..." She pushed the card forward between two fingers to the man "You'll have to call. They'll be nothing like the silly remainders you had here before, though... "
Score! He got her number! Peri took the card and glanced at it before sticking it in his pocket. "Interesting dragons, then? I like interesting dragons. We don't have many of them around... Most of ours were the boring, typical kind..." The man grinned. "So..." He glanced over at Alan. "Is she gonna be teaching with me?" He had a thought that they could teach a little more than dragon info...
"Quite interesting." Felicity watched him a moment more, unable to keep her lips from twisting into an amused smile. What a straightforward little man.... Well, to her anyways, it wasn't hard to pick up on just what he was aiming at. "No... I won't be teaching any classes, though... if you find anything too hard for yourself to handle, feel free to call me... other than that... i see no reason why you should try to keep in touch. Merely buisness partners..." she leaned back, placing her hand on his chest softly "If you are to assume I'm an easy catch... You'll find yourself caught... Take after your boss here... it would be wise not to trust someone you know nothing about." the fox like expression only furthered as she spoke, until she finished and her hand roughly shoved against peri, either completely removing him from her path or knocking him to the ground- either one was quite good enough for her to step towards the door. "I'll be seeing you both soon I imagine..." her boots echoed against the ground, tak tak tak... until she was apparently done with this meeting, and out the door.
Peri's eyes lit up as the woman got closer. Darn... he'd have to come up with some excuse to call her... He started to open his mouth to reply when he was shoved to the floor, landing with an "Oomph!" He watched happily as she left the office, then glanced over at Alan and winked. "I like 'em rough!"
Alan just... watched the scene unfurl. What else was there to do in such a situation? Only to lean back alittle as Peri was not just shoved but completely knocked over... Well she had looked strong, and honestly who deals with dragons and isn't? But in the end, all he could do was shake his head and rest an elbow against his desk, running it over his hair.... Oh god. Peri... just... ugh. "You know what..." he said, snatching a nearby pen "I'm going to run a petition to see if we should get you neutered..." Of course he wasn't serious. No man would ever do that to another man, no matter what the situation was.
