Azrael was excited to meet this lady. Ashe had told him - or rather, Ashe had spoken in his human tongue, and Santiago had translated for him - that there was a female Devaros that had decided she wanted a clutch to raise. She had recently matured and, hormones, blah blah blah. Sometimes the ladies just wanted some eggs to care for of their own, for any reason. And Ashe had, also for some reason, decided that Azrael would be the perfect father. He accompanied the human to the temple, allowing the company now. But he didn't really want the company when things started to... ahem. He was a big, thick boy with muscles but not too much brains. He was sweet, and got along with the rest of Ashe's family of Draconics. Ashe didn't think he'd ever had babies of his own. He wasn't exactly someone's first pick... Ashe ran a house of intellects, mostly related to Santi himself. [Ashe is using Sever Bond at the cost of 4 MP] 1

Jinx hadn’t really spent that much time with her draconics. It felt too weird; they were their own people, so how could she own one. But they were also their own people, so… did they want her around? She spent most of her time exploring, not exactly building bonds with intelligent creatures. But as she led the Devaros that was eager for her first clutch, to the breeding caves, she was starting to doubt herself. This draconic looked really sweet, and there was an intelligent look in her eye. Jinx laid a hand on her shoulder gently, smiling as the draconic looked at her. When they arrived, the first thing Jinx noticed was Ashe standing there. He was kind of hard to miss, and he was her boss so what worker wasn’t aware at all times if their boss was near? ”Hi,” she said, casually. She saw a large, block headed looking draconic next to him, in the most gorgeous shade of icey blue and white. 2

Ashe smiled at his employee. She was a lifesaver, really. She lived at his house, though he hardly ever saw her. She lived her own life and made sure her chores got done, then she did as she pleased. And she came when he called, and did what he asked. In this case, she happened to have a Devaros female that Ashe…needed… for his breeding purposes. He wanted to add a Devaros to his breeding line, see what he could get out of it.
Azrael was instantly attracted. She was gorgeous and shiny and beautiful. He lowered his head and gave a low grunt, a gentle greeting to one so beautifully golden. She had wings, too, which made him a little envious, but moreso interested in her. He didn’t hold it against her that she could probably fly while he couldn’t. But it was certainly an admirable trait! He couldn’t wait to get to know her better.

”He’s a pretty boy!” Jinx commented, nodding to Azrael. He didn’t look the smartest, but he did look like he could bash a rock in two with just his skull. She looked over at her own Devaros, trying to imagine what a baby would look like between the two of them. After a moment, she dragged her gaze away, not wanting to think too much about it. Looking at Ashe again, she asked, ”So, uh, is this your first time?” Even though she knew it wasn’t, because she had a baby from one of his past breedings. But she wasn’t sure how this… worked. And this would be the perfect time for him to show her! Did they just… Mash them together? Give them space? Or leave them completely?
Her draconic glanced shyly at Azrael, hiding her face behind a wing. He was handsome! But she was embarrassed for wanting this. First time jitters and all. He seemed like he was more experienced, which was all the more scary.

”And she’s a lovely girl. Hopefully their colors go well together.” He glanced from one Draconic to the other. Sometimes, nature was cruel and gave bland colors, which made draconics… unappealing, as bad as that sounded. Plenty of those were waiting with Acethylka to be adopted.
At the next question, he gave her a sly smile and a wink, but then shook his head. ”Nah, I’ve been here plenty of times. Santiago likes to frequent this place. We just let them into the room and let them talk, get to know each other, and hopefully something happens.” With that, he offered Jinx his arm, to lead her.
Azrael walked closer to his temporary girlfriend, eager to get to know her. He hoped she spoke Draconian, because that was the only language he spoke. He wasn’t able to speak and understand common as well as his smarter companions, and she looked pretty smart, at least to him.

Jinx gave a nod as she took his arm, letting him show her the way. She found herself a little amused as he talked about his other draconic - she knew of Santiago, though she hadn't met him yet because, well… she didn't frequent this place, after all. " hope they like each other, then," she said, wondering if draconics all got along or if there were sometimes fights amongst them. Some animals in the world acted like to mate was an act of violence, even when they wanted it. She didn't know what she would do if the draconics started roaring and slashing at each other! Her sweet little golden one wouldn't stand a chance.
Starburst, as she had heard her human call her before, seemed quite taken with the pale blue-white male. He was strong, looked like a protector, even if he was a Malavos. She didn't need to have intellectual conversations, some polite company would suit her just fine.

Ashe led Jinx to the cave entrance, then gestured that the draconics would continue on without them. There was a viewing room, but Ashe didn't quite feel comfortable being in there with Jinx, when he was in a serious relationship. When things heated up sometimes….
"They'll figure out what to do from here," he told her. Then, still holding her arm, he started to depart with his employee in tow.
Azrael gave Ashe a nod and led the rest of the way, beckoning to his new friend with his tail. He led them down a corridor to a private room of their own, where no one was around to peep or have their own opinions. Then he turned to her and bowed formally. "You are beautiful, lady," He said in their native tongue. He was trying to be nice and polite, though it might come off as a little brutish. His voice was a little deeper and rough than many others.

Jinx let Ashe keep a hold of her arm and direct her, even when they started to turn away. Distracted, she looked back at Starburst, and waved with her free hand. "Have fun, Star! Please be nice to the handsome drake and he will be nice to you!" she blew her a kiss, then she and Ashe departed and the draconics went inside.
Starburst watched her human go, then eagerly, though with some obvious nervousness, followed her drake inside. He led her true and they emerged into a private room, which wasn't much but had a few ledges, a small pool, and some other things to make them comfortable. Shyly, she stretched out a wing and wrapped it partway around her, nibbling on it as a preening bird might do. They were alone now. She was alone with a strange drake, about to do things she had never done before. The more she thought about it, the more worked up she became.

They were alone now, Azrael noted. He felt a pleased warmth spread through his body at the thought, starting to relax. And then - a pang of alarm shot through him. He was alone!! With a very pretty draconess! He stood tall, his chest puffed out a little in the hopes to appear even larger, stronger, more worthy. He did not have wings to preen, or at least not any that would, erm, be impressive if he tried.
"I am Azrael," he said formally. "Pleased to meet you, Lady," he added. He didnt know her name and he was determined to continue using the word Lady until he knew it. He wasn't sure what he would do once he had her name, though. He had never asked a lady's name before; he had female siblings in his family but that was it. Trish would sooner toast your face off than be word, so there was no point in being polite to her…

Starburst peeked out from behind her wing, as if finally accepting his presence and her predicament. It was what she wanted, after all. But she had never been alone like this before!
Now he was talking to her, and she found she understood him quite well and he was trying his best to be polite. She furled her wing again, giving him her full, yet still shy, attention. Arching her neck a little and eyeing him to the side, a gesture grown out of nerves but perhaps appearing very enticing, she looked him over once before allowing her gaze to settle on his face.
"I am called Starburst," she informed him. "I am pleased to meet you as well, Azrael. Have you… have you been here before?" She couldn't help but ask this, even though she fretted over the answer. If he said yes, she might appear inferior. If he said no, then who the heck knew what to do?

Ah… Azrael hated this question and wished she wouldn't have asked it of him. He hadn't been here in all his time of remembering, and he didn't want to admit it. He had been able to tell this was her first time, because no veteran would behave like this, and he was fine with that. He had planned to bullshit his way through, the whole fake it till you make it. But if he told her that, would she still be interested in him? Or would she seek out a more experienced dracon to make her first time more memorable?
He sighed and looked down for a moment, giving a slight shrug of his shoulders before looking back up. "It is my first time, too, Starburst," he admitted. It was as if she had dragged the confession right out of his throat. But once it was out, it was out, and there was nothing he could do except for wait and see what her reaction might be.

To her own surprise, Starburst found that she was relieved to hear his answer. If this was new and a little scary for her, it must be at least similar for him! What male would ever be scared, of course, but he could still experience nerves, surely. He appeared embarrassed to have to answer her question, and she found that endearing. It also made her feel a little bad for asking and bringing it up. Just a little bit, though. She was too relieved to know the answer, to regret it in its entirety.
"So we attempt this venture together, then!" she said cheerfully. She relaxed more, knowing he wouldn't be expecting things from her that she simply could not give, things that she wouldn't know how to give. After a moment's reflection, she added, "I am pleased to experience this with you…" And she was, honestly. She found him attractive, and strong, and now they were on the same level!

That coy little minx! Azrael was finding he was really starting to like her. She was not only pleasing to look at, but the glimpses of her personality she had allowed him enticed him all the more. He gave her a toothy grin, beyond pleased to be experiencing this with her, and he told her so. "I am very happy we are together in this, too. You are beautiful. And nice. And I would like to know more about you." Awkward as he may be, he was trying to be sweet and pay her a compliment. Hopefully she took it that way, instead of him coming on too strong and being too direct with his tactics.
What question to ask, though, to really get to know her? He wasn't great at small talk with strangers. He spent most of his time beating rocks with his sister Trish. Ah, that's it! Family!
"Do you have any siblings?" he asked her.

If she could blush, Starburst would have blushed. She hadn’t expected him to just bluntly call her beautiful, though it was the comment about wanting to know more about her that caught her attention even more. She had assumed it would be a one time deal, that he would give her what she wanted, and get something out of it himself as well, and then be on his way. But instead, he wanted to actually get to know her? Okay, but now what did she say? What was there to say about herself that might interest him, anyway?
But then he was the one to ask a question and she found herself happy that she could supply an easy answer.
”I don’t have any full siblings,” she said. ”But there are a few others I would consider my family. A young Lashak named Spyte, and a handsome Shayala named Alkatraz. They are quite nice, as nice as brothers could be, I suppose,” She said, jokingly. ”How about you?”
