Shocky loves grumpy old men, news at 11

[drshocky]

[Just a typical day with Char flying around the school and-- wait, that's not Char. While it's easy to confuse the two, anyone who knows their Charizards will note that this one is an elder, covered in scars from a lifetime of turf wars and fighting over the laaaay-dies. Now he's come for you, SBG

[Whoa. Look at that. Char's "another stupid Charizard stomping all over my turf" senses are tingling. And look. It's ANOTHER MALE. EDGING IN ON HIS TERRITORY. OHH SNAP.

Here he is, stomping his way out to the courtyard to cordially invite this dapper gentleman to join him for finger sandwiches and tea. By which I mean "roar and puke fire at the sky". So that this guy knows this is CHAR'S TURF and he should LEAVE IMMEDIATELY before he is IMPALED ASS-FIRST ON THE FLAGPOLE. That's just the kind of host Char is.]

It is just a party of flaming ass up in here.

[drshocky]

[Well would you look at that. Someone else moved in after all. It's a pain in the ass, but could he really expect anything else after so long? The nameless lone ranger flares his nostrils and streeeetches out his wings in a very much COME AT ME BRO kind of way.]

Pipe down, kid.

I think you can find ads for flaming ass parties on craigslist

[blazinglizard]

[Oh, aren't we cool, acting like being IN HIS PRIME unlike CERTAIN OLD WHEEZY INTRUDERS makes Char a kid. He's just gonna mirror that flared-wing posture, still a-stompin' his way closer.]

You got yourself fifteen seconds to get outta my territory, old timer.

I am almost tempted to actually check even though the results will make me cry

[drshocky]

[Cool? I think you mean. RED HOT. Man, you dang kids are all the same, disrespecting your elders. Back in his day...]

You think you're the first Charizard to lay claim to these parts? [Whether it's actually amusing or he's just trying to get a rise out of Char, he does chuckle a bit.] Boy, I was the king here before you even hatched.

[What is an old man without some kind of CREEPY FACTOR. He cranes his neck to get a good long sniff. He reeks of human. And flowers, whaaaat. Old Man is perplexed by this. Time for a serious question.]

You got yourself a trainer?

[punchvolcanoes]

[Oh shit it's a lady. GODDAMN this better not be about what she thinks this is about.]

You're new.

[WELL more like YOU'RE OLD but he knows what she means.]

[drshocky]

[Oh boy, a LADY. Just gonna. Yawn and stretch and ooooh look at that wingspan. Eh? Ehhhh?]

I'm not new, I just haven't been around in a few years. You're the second Charizard I've seen around here today.

[punchvolcanoes]

[Ehhhhhh, I've seen a better wingspan on a Butterfree.]

I'm guessing you met Char then. [Pause.] It's a surprise he let you live at all. Were you a student at the Academy?

[The talk is somewhat idle in the 'not interested but I will make polite conversation' way.]

[drshocky]

[Snort of amusement.] This school was mine but I never set foot inside it if that's what you're asking. But I guess I'm too old to hold my own anymore... That runt packs a wallop. [He is more depressed about that than he wants to let on. If he's so old and useless what is the point in even living anymore bawww. Well, he may have lost the turf war but he's going to try giving it a last shot at passing on his genes.]

You his mate?

WELP.

[icequeen_charan]

[IN AN ALTERNATE TIME AND PLACE... there's another lady dragon. She was dozing on the rooftop when suddenly RIDLEY HUGE DARGON. Commence speculative staring.]

Re: WELP.

[drshocky]

[Not one lady, but TWO? No way can they belong to that stupid runt. HE WILL NOT ALLOW IT. He may be old but he's got experience if you know what I mean. He perches on the rooftop next to this charming lady and checks to make sure he doesn't have any loose scales from his most recent shedding or anything. That would just be embarrassing.]

Hmm.

[VERY BLATANT APPRAISAL.]

[icequeen_charan]

[A thrush comes, swooping from the sky, and informs Samus the beast has a small bare patch of scales his left breast. Samus may not be a dragon naturally, but she can tell by now when a member of the opposite sex is checking her out. CALL IT INSTINCT. She stirs, but only enough effort to lift her head and snort in this guy's general direction. Hi, guy. Personal space please.]

Can I help you?

[drshocky]

Maybe you can tell me how many Charizards are around here and just when they all started showing up.
