[ The feed starts out a little dark, honestly. But one can definitely hear the heavy breathing of some sort of creature. ]

Come on, girl, you have to let me out sometime.

[ Light suddenly shines through and one can see Claude's hand pushing up a large wing and exposing the vast expanse of white scale. ]

Apparently she thinks that I also need to stay in her nest. You'd think we've gone back in time where she had just been a baby and me a kid spending nights in the aery together. That's not what this is about though.

[ The camera pans to Khalid, who gives a little wave before pointing back to his wyvern. A white wyvern in a nest, wrapped around two eggs. Claude is still holding a wing up so that he can catch sight of his best friend. The wyvern just releases a little groan and a huff. ]

She had them just the other day. Chances are if you don't see me for a while it's because of these little guys. I'd hunt down anyone who cursed me with this luck, but how can I be upset seeing at how pleased she is? What a proud mother.

Sure, whatever you say.

[deepstar]

Maybe your time is coming. Your friend there could end up having kittens.

[sunsetking]

Don't wish that upon me just because I was being realistic with you about yours.

[deepstar]

I don't know, Leona. It's entirely possible. There are a lot of warrior cat things around.

[sunsetking]

Don't.

[Wish that on him. Please don't.

Kirara isn't even really his; she just likes tagging along with Leona here and there.]

[deepstar]

[ Might want to explain that to Khalid! ]

Which, now that we're on the topic... Is that what you'd call any kids of yours? Kittens?

[sunsetking]

[Eventually.]

Cubs.

[Wait--]

Why're you asking all of a sudden?

[deepstar]

Just curious!

[sunsetking]

Random thing to get curious about.

[emet_sulk]

[ A chuckle from him. ]

Ahh, but to envy her own children? Goodness me. A mother's love is frightening.

[ He props his cheek against a hand, still smiling wryly. ]

So you'll tame them and then give the children away? Let them bond with others?

[deepstar]

There are a lot of lovely individuals here. You never know when someone will strike your fancy.

[sunsetking]

[A huff of laughter.]

Sadly, I got no intentions of being a father right now. Maybe you’re the one who might find himself struck by someone.

[deepstar]

If I were back home, the bonding process would start once the egg has a viable hatchling can be confirmed. You'd put your hands on the egg and cover it with your scent. The more time you spend with the egg, you know?

[ So really anyone who thinks to want one of the hatchlings really should talk to Khalid soon. Might not be able to take the egg with them, but they can hold and hug on it.

As long as Khalid is there to facilitate. ]

It's a commitment though. Wyverns don't grow to full size in a couple of months, you know?

[deepstar]

Who? Me? Struck by someone?

Leona, friend, surely you know me better than that by now.

[sunsetking]

Anything is a possibility, you know.

[deepstar]

Oh sure, it's a possibility, but what's the actual probability?

Unless you're wanting to curse me like that too.

[emet_sulk]

[ He nods. ]

Of course, of course. I do wonder though: why offer them for bondage? Why not let them fly with their native brethren?

[sunsetking]

So far, fifty-fifty.

I do specialize in magic; curses aren't that much different from it.

[deepstar]

Hey now. We don't need to go that far.

Maybe the truth is I'm picky.

[sunsetking]

Relax, I ain't gonna curse ya.

Are ya now?

[phoenixdominant]

Of course, it's no problem. Though I do wonder if she'll let you out of her sight.

[She's a new mother, after all! Does Claude need a break away from her?]

[deepstar]

Ah. Magic is such an unfulfilling answer. Also likely completely worthless for making anything useful from the remains.

[deepstar]

She'll have to, eventually. It's surprising to hear, I know, but I don't really do well with being idle.

[phoenixdominant]

Consider me surprised.

[He's not surprised at all. Claude seems the exact type to hate being idle.]

[deepstar]

I am a man of refined tastes.
