I Like Long Walks On The Beach

[iamnotpolaris]

The beach is a nice, convenient, out-of-earshot place to calibrate the coordinates for this universe.

"We'll try to let you know if any of them get broken but if you try and get an error message that's probably why."

[pythbox]

Saravasse nods.

[whatamithinking]

Something occurs to her.

She looks between the dragons.

"So, how exactly does the unicorn virgin thing work, is he going to be uncomfortable for reasons besides airsickness on the way back? Or is that an intrusive question."

[pythbox]

"Thankfully, dragons don't count," says Saravasse.

[whatamithinking]

"That sounds both convenient and arbitrary," she agrees.

[pythbox]

Saravasse shrugs.

[whatamithinking]

"Of course, lots of things are arbitrary. And it really does sound very convenient."

[pythbox]

"If you want to talk about convenience, consider how fortunate it is that unicorns don't count," Saravasse says dryly.

[whatamithinking]

...

...

"That hadn't even occurred to me but now I'm imagining the alternative. Yes, indeed, fortunate."

[pythbox]

Saravasse chuckles.

[whatamithinking]

"I mean, exactly how fortunate depends on how bad the aversion is, I suppose. Scenarios in my head are ranging from 'significantly awkward' to 'total extinction of the species within a handful of generations.'"

[pythbox]

"Let's be glad we don't have to find out which of those it is," says Saravasse.

[whatamithinking]

"Agreed."

[pythbox]

Saravasse snorts, an amused little sound that would probably be very quiet if she weren't so big.

[whatamithinking]

Sound tends to work that way.

No one actually says anything for a bit.

Okay, Edie's just going to hug this purple dragon.

[pythbox]

...That is adorable and she is adorable. The purple dragon snuggles her very carefully, as befits someone who is large and scaly snuggling someone who is small and soft. (She's wearing chainmail, but still.) Even Saravasse smiles.

[whatamithinking]

Edie is in fact small and soft relative to a dragon. And, apparently, adorable. To be fair, the chainmail is magic.

(In a corner of her mind she notes that purple scales and blue chainmail is a good color combination.)

Yay snuggles!

[pythbox]

Dragon snuggles!

[whatamithinking]

Dragon snuggles.

[iamnotpolaris]

Emily, not having any more reason to avoid her sister and in search of an armband for Sivath, comes over the hill.

"Holy shit, I don't think I've seen anything this adorable since I stopped being around small children on a regular basis!"

[endragoned]

Demon and dragon giggle simultaneously.

[iamnotpolaris]

"That wasn't intended as a challenge to try to top the small children," she sniffs, mock serious.

[whatamithinking]

'Give him the number four one, not the number six, I already told Saravasse which ones to expect to be in use.'

[iamnotpolaris]

'kay'

Where's the bag? Over there's the bag! Rummage rummage.

[endragoned]

The purple dragon very carefully snuggles Edie.

The demon goes over and also snuggles Edie, because how could you possibly expect him not to do that.
