Temeraire had to make several trips to the library to get a good sense of what this particular holiday was, and even more so because the American part of it was somewhat different from the British version, and he didn't even know that because it started getting popular a couple of decades after he was there. It seemed to be an interesting sort of thing for the humans, because it would be rather silly if he should ever try to dress up as anything for the occasion. Laurence probably could have tried to get him to dress up, and might have been successful, but alas, there was yet another reason to miss the man terribly so.

He was walking out and about to get some exercise, and to enjoy the people passing around walking in their various sorts of costumes, when something came close to him.

He tilted his head toward the side as he examined it. What was it? It seemed familiar, only because it somehow reminded him of Mushu and that one Kiao Sea Dragon he met before. He looked it up and down, and then saw its feet: they were human feet. It ( ... )

"I don't think that there is a need to, China. She might return back soon enough for you to resume being an entire dragon for the evening."

He watched as he saw a young girl somewhere around Roland's age get out from under the tail-end of the costume, and come up to him with no hesitation at all.

He smiled as pleasantly as he could, when he noticed that her eyes were somewhat like someone else he knew. Comprehension dawned on him as she touched the scales on his skin almost at once.

"Pleasure to meet you, Toph. My name is Temeraire."

With that, he lowered his nose to her shoulder, and gave her a slight nudge in greeting. It was only fair to do this, if she had nothing more to go on than touch is how he reasoned his decision.

Sohki sighed playfully while Toph removed herself from their outfit. The young were always so excitable, weren't they? But then again, it was an aspect of them that he did find amusing.

He remained quiet within the shield of the dragon's head. Still playing his part, regardless of their lack of tail, the kirin continued to blink the faux-dragon's eyes while regarding Toph and Temeraire speak. They ddin't last there for long before he turned his attention around to his mid-section.

"Well, considering that our illusion is gone, I suppose we'll have to work twice as hard to bring it back, hmm~?" He playfully asked.

"A dragon with a dragging back end or a dragon with a sagging middle... The latter would be an old one, yes? Or one with a bad back. This will not be so hard to do, aru!"

And as he was saying that, he was shifting his hold to take up Toph's spot, which indeed gave their makeshift dragon the look of something with a very, very bad back. He was keeping half of his mind on the two outside of the costume-- feeling intensely pleased with both of them, honestly, since they were both his citizens (even if England tried to lay claim to Temeraire)- but it wasn't too large of a distraction. Even with a two-third filled costume, this day was turning out more than well.

Toph laughed a little when Temeraire nudged her. "This is so much cooler than Mushu," she said, slightly intimidated by the size of this dragon. "Don't tell him I said that."

He took a sidelong look over toward the dragon, which now seemed to be bowed at the middle with what did indeed look like a very bad back.

"Ah, I think that could possibly work," he said a little dubiously, "but it does not seem at all as lively as it did before."

It was true, it seemed rather odd.

After hearing Toph's words, it surprised him that she would know about Mushu since it was his idea to keep things 'on the down low,' as he put it. It took some explaining, but he later came to understand the meaning.

"Is that so? In that case, I shall most certainly keep it to myself," he said in a rather pleased tone of voice, "though I thank you very much for your kind words."

I'm failing just as much, so it is okay! <333 holy_prankster April 18 2011, 12:24:53 UTC
"No, not at all, China-kun~!" He couldn't help but get the image of Naga in his head when China spoke of a sagging dragon. It was amusing beyond belief, and he'd have to remember this moment so that he cuold tease the dragon guardian when they all returned to their realms.

The comparison between the two dragons only drew amusement out of the kirin. He could almost imagine the reaction his darling little Mushu would give, and he felt himself tempted to quote Toph's words just to see it. Perhaps once this was all over and done with...
