Sudden plot related blurb...
Dragons are very territorial creatures. The presence of anything new and strange on familiar ground sends them into fits of paranoia and temper tantrums. They tend to turn grouchy and lash out at anything that moves for the sheer wish to keep their territory theirs and theirs alone. Sometimes, you'd just wish they'd peed in key locations and left it at that.
But why are they so territorial?
It's called... The Hoard.
The hoard (Don't look at me like that. I don't play WoW.) is a collection of baubles which the dragon in question has gathered over the years. These can be precious swords, gems, coins, gold, silver or practically anything that glitters. Often, a dragon will treasure one particular piece from its hoard and protect it from outsiders with its life.
It is never wise to steal from a dragon. When a dragon has been stolen from, it will do anything and everything within its power to get said treasure back. This may start with chasing after the thief to battling it to threatening to eat it alive. The thief in question may escape with the shiny object but rest assured, the dragon is still watching and waiting for the perfect chance to snatch its treasure back.
It is said that anyone who steals from a dragon will be forever cursed until the piece of treasure is returned. There is no compensation for the lost item. You either return it or pay for it with your life.
In other related materials, most Infernal dragons (hell dragons) have an inborn hate for angels. Well, I dunno about the hate. Some of the more mature ones are rather distrustful and wary of them. I suppose this stems from the fact that their ancients don't really have a good rap sheet with them. At any rate, an Infernal dragon will rip an angel to shreds when faced with one. Payback for what they did to their ancestors. An angel wouldn't last two seconds looking at an Infernal. There will be roaring and gnashing of teeth.
Angels and dragons do not mix. The other breeds may be cool with them but not the Infernals.

In IRL news...
-Holyshit Black Bat Vanilla Mint. <3 *wants an entire box*
I went to take a walk around the area today and ended up in Harrison Plaza. That's where I found the Black Bat. Bought a couple of sticks as well as some DJ Mix and a Pink Devil. I'm curious about the rose flavored cigs. o_o
Anyway. After that, I walked a little more and found myself at the zoo. Yes, Manila Zoo. Since the entrance fee was only 20php, I decided to go and kill some time there. Hay kababawan. I was blissfully happy. XD Fosirius.
The elephant seemed ok.... and I wasted a lot of time watching the peacocks...
But I found myself feeling kinda sorry for the ostrich. It was really old and it's feathers were in really bad shape. It very nearly looked like a large balding turkey. We had a moment together when it sat down near the fence and watched me while I crouched down and watched it.
The hippo was cute. It was all fat and lumpy.
The gator and I had a moment, too. Reptile to reptile. He was lazing in the water with his mouth open. I was hanging around the wall near his pen. He suddenly moves to adjust his position to look at me. I look back. We remain like this for several minutes until I declare I was getting tired.
A cat darted across the llama pen. It seemed REALLY scared.
I saw a monkey whack off in public.
The tiger was asleep.
I couldn't find the lion.
Crocs and gators are lazy. Cute... but lazy.
DUCKS!
POT BELLIED PIG!
I had something in my head going "Omnomnomnom" when I saw rabbits and guinea pigs.
And thus my trip to the zoo.
Someday, I shall take Shakti there too! :D
