The Introduction Evari and Chase were simply minding their own business, doing their own things in their seperate lives. No where near each other.
Somehow, some way, this crazy orb that looks suspiciously like a giant bubble floats on over to you. No matter how you try to avoid it, no matter what you do to stay away (this is if you even try to stay away), it persistantly follows you! One way or another, whether it was your doing or the bubble's doing, it pops on you!
Suddenly, you're somewhere else! Is it a dream? Hum, maybe. Hey, who is that other person there with you? Wait a minute...where the heck are you?!The Scenario Well, it certainly wasn't home. Looking around shows a darkened theatre, the old school kind with the large wooden stage, trap doors and elegant red curtains with golden tassles. The stage lights are on and dimmed, but it is nearly impossible to see out into where the crowd would sit.
Shifting in place, it feels like there is a liquid covering the floor, and a very copperish or iron scent filling the air. The Dim light shows that the entire stage, even the curtains, is covered with a thin layer of blood, that seems to be 'bleeding' over the edge of the stage. Occasionally, some blood would drop from the curtains like a morbid rain...
It seems silent, so it's safe to assume it is just the two of you.
Ah, that is, of course, right up until a giant Blue Mama Dragon appears from the darkness of the sitting area, holding an infant and absolutely adorable little Blue Dragon by the scaley scruff of it's neck with her teeth. The Baby is put down between the two no doubt baffled Curio children, and in a strangely clear voice, the Mother Dragon orders them to babysit her son.
She disappears and the area falls into silence again, save for the happy purring of a baby Blue Dragon, just revving up to cause trouble. It belches once, spewing fire from it's adorable little mouth.
Baby sit the little Dragon, and try not to get hurt!Rules and Dice Rolls Rules ---> Roll 1 20-sided dice with every post where you try to entertain the little dragon! Just be careful though, if you ignore him for too long, he might try to set fire to something... ---> The Mama Dragon won't come back until the Baby is asleep, and the Baby won't sleep until it's exhausted! It has to be at least 'Entertained' five times before it gets tired enough to pass out (See Dice Rolls below). ---> Once the Mama Dragon returns, the RP ends. They'll 'wake up' in the place they were before the bubble popped on them. ---> This is a dream, but they will remember it clearly, just like they had met for real!
Dice Rolls Remember, this is 1 20-sided dice! 1: Ignores the attempt. Sets fire to something. 2 - 6: Ignoring the attempt. Tries to set something on fire. 7 - 9: Watching, but bored. Seriously eyeballing things to set on fire. 10: Paying attention, mildly curious. Occasionally looking for burnable things. 11 - 16: Paying attention, but easily distracted. 17 - 19: Entertained, not even thinking of setting things on fire. 20: SO THOROUGHLY ENTERTAINED OMG. Squealing ball of cute.
Tools at your disposal --> Whatever can be found on a regular stage, including the costumes and props in the room underneath it.

Evari was doing what Evari did best, she was in her room making up words to a song she was dancing to. Tyyne was taking care of her flower or something, she was just doing what Tyynes do. Deer girls. Whatever. It didn't concern this glowing girl. Xai had laid down for a nap, and Nutter was floating around the living room bellyup with his tongue hanging out of his mouth and plastered over his one closed eye. Don't worry, he's alive, he just ate himself into a coma of sorts. Where he put it all no one wanted to know.
Unfortunately for Evari she was so into her dancing she didn't even notice as an orb appeared behind her and loomed over her menacingly, engulfing her before she could even know what hit her. She woke up in darkness, sitting up and rubbing her head. What the heck? This wasn't her bedroom. She was sitting in something wet and so she lifted her hand closer to her face; it was red, and kinda funny feeling. Weird! Was it koolaid? The koolaid they had at home was red! Maybe this stuff just had too much sugar in it, making it goopy and weird. Evari blinked and tilted her head to the side, licking the 'koolaid' off her finger. "AUGH! GROSS!" Evari wiped her hand on her skirt with a sound of disgust. That was not koolaid! Pushing herself to her feet, Evari put her hands on her hips and looked around.
Oh hey! There was someone else here! "Yo! You okay over there?" Evari asked as she sloshed through the gross red stuff to get to the other person, stopping dead in her tracks when a dragon appeared. Holy crap! What was a dragon doing here?!
Evari watched her put the baby dragon down, staring at it. O...kay...? How do you say no to a dragon. Heh, it was kinda cute! She giggled and puled at its nose, earning herself a smoky snort and coughing. "Dude, how do you babysit a dragon?"

Chase was in the living room when this had taken place. R.J. had taken Imani out due to her wanting to get a flower or something like that. He wasn't really paying attention to where she said she was going, only that she said to behave and not break anything. He had actually been flipping through the channels on the telly, something he usually only did when no other sort of fun could be had, when he spotted the bubble. Curious, he went over and poked at it, and then all of a sudden, he wasn't where he used to be.
Chase blinked. He knew what a stage was, and what blood was...sorta, though at his current age he had no underlying thoughts that this much blood could be a bad thing. After all, it was coming from the curtains; it made sense to him.
Evari called to him first, but he couldn't say anything as the dragon appeared soon after. He himself was thoroughly confused.
"I dunno...I normally am the one that ends up being babysat..." He cut off his sentence when he saw a door on the stage, and curious, yanked it open to take a peak inside.
"Hey! There's stuff down here!" he hollered as he hopped down into the room underneath the stage. He rummaged through a box or two before finding something that might make entertain the dragon baby, because he knew he liked to be entertained when the sitter was over.
From the hole in the ground popped up a puppet. It was...who knows. It looked like a cross between a frog and a bee.
"Hello little dragon! Want to be my friend?" the puppet mouthed, bouncing here and there as it it were dancing.
Sadly, the dragon wasn't even paying attention, eying Evari instead, and spewed out a little fireball in her direction...

"Oh...'ve only been babysat once." And that had been with Faris, and it was fun. So...maybe that meant all babysitting was was keeping the kid entertained! Evari blinked and looked down at the boy when he said there was 'stuff' somewhere, walking away from the little dragon baby to peer over the edge of where he was and look down at the boxes. Ooh! Great! They could make it play a game or something! "What is that?" Evari pointed and laughed at the puppet he was holding up, glancing back at the dragon in time to see it spit fire at her.
"OHSHIT!" She cried without thinking, diving ungracefully off the stage and landing in a box of costumes with a pained groan. Owww, the contents were soft but she'd banged against the edge of the box! Evari climbed out of it, again lacking any semblance of grace, and looked at the boy with a little huff. Clearly it was his fault this had happened for not entertaining the dragon. She'd show him how it was done! Evari dug through the costumes until she found a princessy costume, just taking off her own blood-covered clothes to put on the clean princess costume and climbing on the stage again. She cleared her throat, having apparently learned from her hours of television staring how to truly deal with dragons. She was a professional or something.
Haha, yeah right.
"Oh, Mister Dragon~! Will you come and save me?" The dragon watched and snorted, rolling onto its back and kicking its feet in the air. That was even more stupid! It spit fire at the strange puppet thing this time, and Evari blinked. She failed? No way!

Chase had poked his head out at the sound of the scream. The older girl gave him a not very nice look, as if she blamed him for the fire being spewed at her. At first he was starting to think it was, that is, until Evari's own type of entertainment got a fireball in HIS direction. Being popping out of a door in the ground, getting out of the way was easy, but that girl now had no right to get grumpy at him if fire spewed her way.
Once the fire was gone, Chase went looking for something else. The statement "Baby dragons are picky..." was easily heard, though the dragon itself didn't seem to understand or care, busily trying to catch his own tail because these sitters of his were rather boring.
Chase popped back out with some cups and a ball. "How about a magic trick dragon? My mama taught me this one!"
He sat the cups in front of the dragon and hid the ball underneath one before mixing them up. "Now which one is the ball under?" he asked the dragon.
The dragon stared at the cups before pointing at the middle one with a claw. Chase moved it and it wasn't there. The same for the other two cups. The dragon looked up at Chase, wondering where the little ball went. Chase lifted the dragon's tail a bit and reached under it, and pulled out the ball!
The dragon squealed in adorable delight! What a neat trick! His TAIL was hiding the ball!

Oh, Chase. How little you know if Evari! She would still get mad at him if the dragon ever spit at her again because he was bored with something he did. Him being spit at too definitely wouldn't stop her from blaming him for anything that happened. She watched the dragon chase its tail like a dog and laughed, glancing back at Chase when he got out some cups and a ball. Cups and a ball? That looked stupid, what was he doing? Evari leaned her weight into one leg and watched the little trick, blinking and staring at the ball and the very excited little dragon. "How'd you do that?" Not cool! She wanted to entertain it too!
Evari giggled and pat the dragon's head, picking up the ball and bouncing it. The baby dragon was still excited from the game he'd just played with the boy, so Evari did have her attention...however it wasn't undivided. A drop of blood dripped onto the dragon's snout and it stared up at the source, opening its mouth to taste the dripping stuff. Neat! Evari made a disgusted face and bounced the ball some more. "Hey, dragon! Wanna play catch?" The dragon looked at the glowing girl again. Catch? She tossed the ball at it...
The dragon caught it. Right in its mouth. Evari watched as it chewed on the ball and swallowed it, burping up a ring of smoke and puffing its chest with pride.
...Great. Now what?!

Chase shrugged. "I guess he liked my magic trick? I dunno. It woulda been nice if the mama let us know what kind of things he liked to do..."
He then watched as Evari attempted to play catch with the dragon, and how it...sorta worked? Not enough to be entertained anyway. Chase had to think for a moment before he skittered off to where the costumes were. Evari tried to be a princess, and dragons don't save princesses, they kidnap them. But dragons fight with knights!
He found a foam sword and wooden shield and a pot that could work like a helmet. He hopped back onto the stage and grinned.
"You like playing knights dragon?" he asked.
The baby shrieked with glee and wagged his tail at Chase! A knight to battle! He galloped over and play nipped at Chase, who in return lightly swung his sword at the dragon. After a few minutes of this play romp, the dragon was victorious, and he lay on his 'victim' making an odd sound. Was that laughter?

"I meant the ball." How did he get it under the dragon's tail? Even she didn't see! But the dragon had been entertained for a little while and so that meant their job was just made easier!
But now this boy was showing her up. This would not do. This would not do at all.
Fuming silently to herself, Evari watched with a pout as the dragon played quite happily with the boy. Why did he have a better time with the dragon than she did? She was the dragon expert here! Hmph! She couldn't help but giggle at the noises the dragon was making, wandering over to the pair and clapping her hands together. "Onoes~! The knight has been defeated by the mighty dragon! What do we dooooooooo?" The dragon snorted at the girl's attempt to be entertaining and turned its head to blow a spark of fire at her princess hat. Evari gasped and ducked out of the way, glaring at the boy and the dragon now. Ugh! Stupid boys!

Chase stared at Evari for a moment. What was he doing to make her so angry? He was just doing what was natural to him... Oh well, gotta try and tire this little fire breather out or he and Evari might be tasty toasted kiddlets.
"Do you like racing dragon? I could race with you! I can even set up obstacles and stuff like that! How does that sound?"
The dragon looked at him with a lackluster stare and yawned out of boredom. Running? How BORING... He wondered if Chase's sword would catch on fire or not...

Evari watched as Chase ran around to try and get the dragon to play tag with him, smirking with smug satisfaction when the dragon was paying no attention and looked bored with this new game. Ha! She climbed back down under the stage to dig through boxes for something to try, blinking and picking up a stick with a ribbon attached to the end. Huh...maybe she could entertain it like a cat?
Climbing back onto the stage was difficult in this princess costume, and because she rolled onto the stage away from the edge she ended up completely covered in blood. Gross. "Hey dragon~!" Evari called out, getting a lazy turn of the head towards her. What now? Was this going to be fun? It was getting bored!
Evari wandered over and started dangling the ribbon in front of the dragon. It perked up and swatted at it once...and then it was bored again. It snorted, looking away and eying one of the curtains. That looked like it would burn nicely.

Chase blinked. Darn, this dragon was hard to please... and Chase felt that he had been doing so well before. He obviously was choosing the wrong things...and so was Evari it seemed.
He looked into the costumes again before pulling out a hula hoop. He got inside and threw it around his waist, seeing if watching him attempt to use the thing was entertaining.
It wasn't really. The dragon yawned. Might be a bit more entertaining if the hoop thing was on FIRE though. That and the fact that Chase could only keep it going for about five seconds at a time...

Ugh. This was boring! Evari watched as the boy got a hula hoop and fail at using it. She could show him up, revenge for earlier...or she could do something new. Evari took off her princess hat and tossed it, rolling her sleeves up. "Look what I can doooooo~!" She called out to the dragon as she leaned to the side, pushing off with one of her feet.
Evari did a cartwheel, albeit not the best one, but it was a cartwheel nonetheless. She landed in a heap of glowing girl and princess dress, laying on her back and fixing the skirt of her dress. The dragon had watched as the glowing girl did a funny move, but his attention was on the boy using the strange hoop thing. Maybe he should set it on fire.

Chase had gotten the hang of using the hula hoop now, as was slowly walking about while keeping it up on his hips. He himself was amused to say the least. The hoop stayed up on his hips as he moved from here to there and back.
There was a small tailflick of interest from the dragon, but he still was thinking that the hoop thing should be on fire. That would be totally awesome.
