[open] Down by the river in the full moonlight || Drustan, Any ||

[Drustan]

It does not even occur to the young dragon boy that stepping back and out of her personal space is the right thing to do. As Adria’s golden ears flick forward, so do his black ones. Her words make him grin mischievous, and before he speaks, he has already tilted his head so it’s easier for her to reach one of the two horns that sprout from his forehead and grow backwards between his ears. “Dare to find out yourself?” Of course, he thinks she wouldn’t be up for it, though he secretly cannot help but hope that she’ll be tempted just enough.

“Scales?” he asks curiously, head tilting as he pulls back to study her. Her coat is sleek enough now, but scales, really? How cool! “Can you show?” Drustan asks shamelessly, taking a small step closer to press his muzzle against her shoulder, to gently – but firmly – urge her towards one of the many ponds in the playground. Yes, he’d asked, but there is no ‘please’, only the assumption Adria would comply.

She is saved by the arrival of another colt. Adria does not get the chance to move – or protest – and Drustan finds himself face to face with a pair of mismatched eyes. On instinct his head rises, and ears flick back as he tries to make himself as big and tough as possible. For a moment the blue roan colt thinks of not answering, but eventually he complies, after snorting loudly. “Drustan. Who’s asking? And not that I know.”

It’s not a lie to say that he’s curious why the pale golden and white colt is asking him that. And really, what does it matter? The only family that matters to him is his mother, as his sire is unknown and he hasn’t met many of his other relatives. “What’s it to you?”

Drustan.
