ϡ - Chapter Seventeen; in which one becomes a dragon [action]

[folkloristic]

[ Anyone in the vicinity of Community Housing 7 will, at that moment, hear a very loud roar coming from apartment 22 on floor 5. The glass of the windows in the kitchen will shatter and go flying and there will be some smoke coming out from the windows. Also if you come to investigate you'll see deep claw markings in the door's entry way. Whoops

[...

Did he just saw a large dragon walking away from Community Housing 7?

'Yes, you just did, human Bel.']

[isthemyth]

[ Indeed! But have no fear because dragon!Helios is rather preoccupied with getting into the woods. You can probably follow him if you want. ] Of all the times for that to happen. [ It's also muttering to itself. ]

[de_bel_survivor]

[The combined curiosity from both him and them, after a short moment of consideration, lead to Kouki following the dragon. While he does, the Bels send him an idea.

...No, no, he doesn't want to find out, thanks.]

[isthemyth]

[ Well the dragon is going to take a seat in the outlying forested area, trying to orient himself before he figures out what to do...well with all this. He'll notice you then Kouki reptilian green eyes widening as he bends his neck down to get closer look. He tries to give an innocent enough smile, as toothy as it turns out to be. Really this is as awkward for him as for you probably. ] Oh he-hello! I didn't see you there.

[de_bel_survivor]

Hello. [Wow, sharp teeth you got there. And yes, this is kind of awkward.] I don't see dragons like you around here, often.

[Spyro's small and doesn't cause that much of a noise, and Kouki would know if he saw a big dragon like Helios around.]

[isthemyth]

[ He gives a loud deep chuckle. ] I-I'm not usually a dragon, er, ever actually. [ He'll sit back straight then examining his claws and flexing them, his wings as well. Also that tail of his will be swaying back and forth. ]

I suppose it will take some time getting used to. Yes, sometime indeed.

[de_bel_survivor]

Let me guess, experiment? [Rhetorical question is rhetorical. He looks over the dragon's body, taking in the powerful looking features and limbs.]

Does this mean you can breathe fire?

[isthemyth]

Er...y-yes. [ He'll let out an annoyed sounding growl along with a snort, which might cause some smoke to erupt from his nostrils. ]

I'm not...sure. Possibly? I haven't gotten down the feel of things quite yet.

[de_bel_survivor]

You can probably do it with some practice.

[He can feel them moving and quickly try to strengthen his defences.] ...

[isthemyth]

Practice? Hm, you have a point. I should try flying as well. You're only a dragon once after all! [ Another rumbling laugh. ] But, ah, I rather do it somewhere with less trees around. [ He will look both ways trying to find a clearing or perhaps somewhere else he could go. ]

[de_bel_survivor]

Flying? It'll be great if you can fly with wings that can actually supports you. [Recalling how Kamina's attempt of getting him, Kouki, to fly.]

[de_bel_survivor]

[While Helios look for that clearing, the Bels start slamming for control. Kouki wince at the sudden assault.]

[isthemyth]

[ He'll be preoccupied for the moment getting up from his position, but taking care to not get close to Kouki due to his size and all. ] Ah! Over there! There's a clearing which might be good. [ He'll turn back to regard Kouki, only get a brief glimpse of that wincing. His eyes narrow a little as he drops his head closer to the other. ] Are you alright?

[de_bel_survivor]

I'll...I'll be alright in a moment. [His blue eyes flicker red and back to normal. Calm down, remember Naoya's instructions... Another 'slam', another wince.]

[isthemyth]

[ He gives a rather concerned look and a loud rumble in his throat. That was supposed to be a hum but it's all translating a little weird in this form. ] Are you sure? Perhaps, ah, I could bring you to the Clinic?

[Gives a reassuring smile.] I'm sure.
