+7+ Now that the weather's a little better... [voice / action]

[voice]

Big Brother Claude? Ashton? [pause] Did you guys find your stuff yet? I can help look if you're still missing things.

Oh, and does anyone know if there are or were paths up on the mountains? Trailblazers would've been nice around here.

[action]

[Later in the day, Leon goes shopping for groceries. He's out of a few things. ...Like carrot

Comments

[backseat_dragon]

-Ashton will not be responding. This is because Ashton is a dumbass. You see, Mercury had her way with him and now he's just sort of napping in the middle of the snow. As are his dragons.

Halp.-

[book_of_chaos]

[...Your luck sucks, Ashton. Leon's gonna have to run into you later in the day, after he's done shopping.]

[backseat_dragon]

-The cosmos conspire against him, really. We're sure.-

[book_of_chaos]

[Leon taps at his journal as he walks along. He'd heard back from Claude already, but not Ashton. Even if Ashton himself was preoccupied, one of his dragons would've noticed the journal, right? ...Maybe he's putting too much faith in idea of "Three heads are better than one."]

[backseat_dragon]

-Well when you're in something vaguely resembling a coma...-

[book_of_chaos]

[Leon will probably have to trip over him, then. :|]

[backseat_dragon]

-Sounds like a plan.-

[book_of_chaos]

[THWUMP]

Agh... Oww. What was that...?

[backseat_dragon]

-An inconveniently placed lump of Ashton.-

[book_of_chaos]

[Ouch. Leon grumbles to himself, shifting in the snow to see what he had tripped over.]

...Uh oh.

[Time to scrape off the snow. First one dragon head. Uh. Moving lower now to find Ashton's head.]

Ashton? Hey!

[backseat_dragon]

-The man groaned, shifting about in the snow as if drawing it back over himself like a blanket.-

Five more minutes...

[book_of_chaos]

[When it's made more obvious that Ashton is in fact okay, Leon's panic gives way for a harried expression.]

Stupid... What're you doing sleeping out here? [He shakes Ashton, glancing at the two dragons to see if they're waking up, too.] C'mon, wake up.

[backseat_dragon]

-Gyroro glares daggers at Leon, but Ururun seems to have some concern. As Ashton comes to, his memory of how he came to be in that situation hits him like a ton of bricks.-

Did she... drug me?

[book_of_chaos]

[The kid gives the red dragon a look, and doesn't stop shaking Ashton until he hears his mumbling.]

She? You got drugged? [How does someone get atacked like that within the first two weeks? ...Oh wait.]

[backseat_dragon]

THAT WOMAN! -And suddenly he's sitting up and his dragons are as shocked as Leon might be.-

SHE SEDUCED ME AND DRUGGED ME!

DID SHE HAVE HER WAY WITH ME WHILE I WAS ASLEEP?!?!?!

[book_of_chaos]

[...You'd think Leon would be used to things like this. He topples over on his rear as Ashton sits up, flustered.]

W-- what?

[He's still a kid. He doesn't know what's implied by seducing and drugging. ...And "having her way with me" definitely doesn't help.]
