Iskierka was very determinedly not looking for Granby. Or so she would readily claim anyway. After all, there was any number of reasons for her to be looking around the oddly-reflective structure, even if it was were people had said they'd arrived. Besides, there had been vampires there of late and even if it wasn't quite as enjoyable as a proper fight it was quite enjoyable to see them burning.

But they wouldn't be out now. She'd learned that much already and so she'd settled for simply seeing if there'd been anything interesting left behind after the last few nights.

Kitten was out cautiously inspecting the edges of the park for signs of either new arrivals or renewed vampire activity when she saw a shape in the sky. That form was one the young dragon would recognize anywhere, because it was a larger version of her own.

This must be the other dragon to whom Thomas had introduced her. Of a mind to meet Iskierka in person, she took off in a gallop beneath Iskierka's flight path, her route bringing her closer and closer to Cloud Gate.

Having caught his breath after the fight, Jayne decided that staying in one place without even knowing what the hell was going on just wasn't too good of an idea. He had just pushed himself to his feet and started walking when he saw a shadow and looked up.

Gou neong yung de the hell is that thing?!

His first thought was that the Reavers had caught up to him in one of their creepy ships. But looking closer, he could tell that wasn't the case, but that didn't tell him a rutting thing! Then he heard something close by, and automatically held up his gun, more than ready to shoot first and ask questions later. You couldn't be too safe in situations like this. What he saw was just as unexpected as the thing up in the sky - a blue lizard-thing, with wings. The closest thing he could think to call it was "dragon," but that was just something from those kid's stories his mother used to tell him. He kept his sights on the thing, stubbornly refusing to lower Lux. Dragons were near always bad, he knew. It just wouldn't do to let his guard down ( ... )

If one was bad, the question became what were two? Kitten was hard to miss even from Iskierka's relative height and it was quite clear that there was at least someone down there and that was enough for her. So without even so much as second thought Iskierka came in to land. Surely the man wouldn't have any problems with it if there was already one dragon there. The fact that most people had problems with large scaly lizards suddenly arriving? Quite cleanly forgotten, and if she had remembered it was already too late, as her wings kicked up clouds of dust as she landed neatly not too far from the Bean itself.

Much better, as far as actual conversation was concerned.

Here Jayne, have a pretty girl who won't put up with your nonsense legallygreen June 7 2011, 22:28:51 UTC
(ooc: If multiple threads aren't cool, let me know, no worries)

Heels from boots that made the petite woman and inch or two taller clicked along the sidewalk, a wide umbrella open over her head even if the rain had let up for a bit. Jennifer had managed some sleep, and her arm still bothered her a bit, having healed more slowly than usual from other wounds. But it had not kept her from getting up and dressing respectably before leaving the Blackstone.

It seemed more people were appearing at the Bean, and if she was not going to be of any use to the angels, she might as well be of use somewhere else. When she saw the grizzled man, she might have turned around and walked off if she were any other woman. But instead she approached him, almost managing a smile.

"Good morning."

First dragons, and now a woman?

Maybe the Reavers got in and he was dead, after all. But if he was, he still couldn't tell whether this was heaven or hell just yet. Though this particular visitor got some extra points for heaven.

"'s it just mornin'?" Jayne asked tiredly.

"It is, though I can see how it would be difficult to tell. You look exhausted. I suggest getting you somewhere safe and warm, and then explaining what you've been dropped into. It's not pleasant." Jennifer replied, giving him a once-over.

She dug in her bag, pulling out an umbrella from the supply of small travel ones she had been carrying ever since the rain started. "This should keep a little more of the rain off your head should it start truly downpouring again."

Safe. Ha. Weren't nowhere that was real safe anymore. Warm, though... Warm might not be so bad. Especially if it involved a girl like this.

"'Preciate it," he mumbled, pushing himself up again. "Don't s'pose breakfast's comes with all that, does it?"

Kel was doing another sweep by the Bean. There were so many people appearing there, she wondered how they didn't land on one another. She spotted another one, a fully grown man this time, who looked like he had been through a warzone.

She approached cautiously even though he looked pretty worn. "Hello? Are you all right?"

"Still livin', ain't I? For someone just comin' from a tea party with Reavers, there ain't anyone better off'n me," Jayne replied grumpily, leaning against the Bean.

"You do seem to be alive. Do you need any healing?"

It was hard for her to see around his slumped posture, but there didn't seem to be too many injuries. Just in case, she started looking around for clothing stores that might yield bandage material.
