It was a bright, sunny day and Jigano was determined to enjoy it, letting the cool of the glade ease some of Longheat's brutal temperatures. The morning had been spent in the Guildhall, cleaning and organizing his Seekers' journals into a new shelf (they were going to need to start an overflow section soon, either upstairs or exploring to find another storage room) and updating his own notes with what they had been bringing back. The sunlight had made him restless, though, and Isuma had needed exercise, and so here they were. He'd brought his basket with him so he could earn a bit more of Safrin's good graces, and while the gryphlet pounced on little flickers of sunlight that peeked through the leaves or reflected off his scales, Dragongano lounged near the Glade Shrine in all of his scaled glory. He was curled around the large woven basket that Tarasha had made for him while it filled with sunlight and his scales gleamed brightly metallic, growing warm enough that he was beginning to contemplate a dip in the Oasis to cool off.

This time he was dangerously near a doze, but it was Isuma who spotted Adam, pausing her own sun-catching activity to cock her head at the human and share her curiosity with her bonded. The dragon held still, forewarned by the little gryphon, so when Adam pounced to nab the sun with his basket he didn't get bitten or doused in paralyzing gas. Instead Jigano made himself jump a little, letting out a snort of 'surprise' and whipping his serpentine head around to blink in pretend-offense at the 'ambusher.' Help! Attacker! Bandit! I'm being robbed! He declared through the Attuned bond. He poked a pointy muzzle (gently) at Adam's midsection, snorting in dismay. Constable! Watchman! This rakish thief is stealing my sunlight!

When Adam suddenly shifted into a snake Jigano really was surprised, looking down at his friend in concern and wondering if he'd poked him too hard after all, but Adam's dramatic wiggling made it clear that the jest was being continued in earnest and the dragonbard watched with delight at his friend's 'death scene.' Isuma watched, too, utterly fascinated and unable to stop herself from pouncing on the wriggling friend-toy. She landed on him with a peep of dismay as he shifted back into human form and she found herself sitting on a man's chest instead of snake's belly. Jigano snorted in amusement at them both, sending a puff of cool air washing over them. I don't see why not. I'm just letting the sunshine collect in my basket, hoarding it for the winter, he explained with a toothy grin as he rested his head back down on the grass alongside Adam. It's been... nice. Really nice. To have something so 'light'-hearted to focus on for a change, he added, musing wistfully but still managing to sneak a pun in while he did. How's your reading practice coming along, by the way?

Isuma was always ready for more playtime with friends! She wriggled in Adam's grip, clearly wanting to pounce back onto him now that she knew what to expect, but Coffee's antics proved a masterful distraction and she reep!ed with glee before she hopped over to tackle him in a playful gentle tussle of scales, fur, and feathers. I suppose I could try something a little more proactive... Jigano raised his head, yawning hugely - then closing his jaws with a snap towards where he'd last seen the sun above, as if swallowing the orb down. There. Delicious! He grinned a toothy grin as Adam resettled his basket and made himself comfortable again. The handsome rogue missed the pun, but Jigano decided they could be friends anyways. He had a habit of burning bridges when his hackles rose, so for as long as he could enjoy Adam's company, he would. He rested his head back on the grass, a rumble of agreement at the stressfulness of the world rattling the baskets beside him for a moment. He was pleased to hear that the lessons were paying off though, and he sent a thrum of approval through the Attuned bond. Sounding things out is a useful way to practice, he assured the magpie man. And the more you practice, the easier it will become. You should come by the Hall again soon. Bring some more beer and cider, he added with a mental chuckle. We can do a lesson for an hour and then reward ourselves with a couple drinks after. Besides, Loreseeker Hall is nice and cool in this weather, he added, shifting to stretch like a long, scaly cat.

Make me, the dragon grinned down at his friend, letting the sharper instincts of the scaly form flavor his humor in a rougher way than the bard usually displayed. He was still very much teasing, though, as he dropped his head back to the grass to give the companions a new obstacle to tumble over. The size difference between them once Adam shifted to his snake form might have been comical if it wasn't _just Attuned things_. Wings made it hard (and painful) to roll onto his back, but he shifted a bit more on to his side so he wasn't blocking his friend's sunlight with the shadow of his silvery bulk. Far from 'just!' Jigano protested with a rumbling chuckle. But I do consider it one of the perks of our friendship, yes. A pulse of approval met the promise to return before Halo, but the mention of 'nerds' surprised another chuckle from the bard. Well, they are all nerds, yes, but nerds can be drinkers, too! he defended them, mirth bubbling up through the bond. Have you met Ingrid yet, for instance? I've known Amalia to do a bit of drinking, too, though... less for fun and more for a purpose, he admitted with a touch of sadness that had no place on this beautiful day. He shook it off, pondering his other colleagues. I don't know about Tarasha... definitely worth finding out, though! The companions's play took them in front of his face and he let out a mighty breath, bowling Isuma, at least, back a few feet with a reep! of delight. Have you been to the new region yet? he asked curiously. The one they call Torchline?

The dragon snorted, blissfully unaware of his friend's unhygienic threat to his dignity, but let the challenge drop as he was distracted by adorable tiny gryphons and dragons pouncing and tumbling through the grass. Talk of drinks made him thirsty for a nice, chilled cider - if he could get it in a bucket or trough appropriate to his current shape - but he hummed a soft agreement at Adam's concern for Amalia. Mention of joints in the Guildhall had him snorting an amused negation, however, and he shifted a wing to nudge the black snake with membrane-covered 'finger.' What they do with you outside the Guildhall for fun and giggles is up to them, but no drugs in the Hall,he chuckled to take any potential sting out of his words. I hate to think of the fire hazard to the books! A soft croon of encouragement met Adam's desire to take Peter to this mythical beach place, but he huffed a quiet laugh at his friend's description of it. I've never seen the ocean, or a beach that wasn't part of a lake,he reminded his friend of their previous conversation. I don't know about it being particularly sexy... from what I've read, wouldn't sand get into, ah, unfortunate places? But... no, I haven't been yet. He went quiet for a moment, exhaling a frosty puff from his nostrils. I should. Exploring new places... a year ago you couldn't have kept me out with threats or violence. But now... He turned his head to blink down at his snaky friend, suspecting Adam might understand better than most. I know what you mean. I want to go with Rory, but if he won't go... then I don't know how much it matters.

I will take you up on that soon, good sir, Jigano thanked his companion with a lazy wink. At the moment he was comfortably chatting with a friend while the caught as much sun as they could in their baskets. He was getting hot, but not to the point where he had to move just yet. You're incorrigible, you mean," the dragon replied, amused in spite of himself by Adam's strangely endearing charm. It let the ex-highwayman get away with saying things he doubted he'd find funny from anyone else. No tempting my guildmates, please. They get in enough trouble on their own! It did lead to a rather high turnover of members, between those who died and the ones who just disappeared. And then came the lecture, one that was well-meaning and thorough and left the bard blinking in silence - speechless for once, a minor miracle. Only when Adam wound down to a finish did the dragon start to shake, a rumbling growl working its way from his chest through his long throat and finally out into quiet roar of laughter. The only reason there weren't tears in his eyes was his scaly form, and it was a good thing he was already laying down or he might have collapsed to the ground - or at least staggered from the force of a good belly laugh. Adam... Adam you are an education, he exclaimed fondly, glad the Attuned bond let him speak through his rumbling chuckles. Thank you for that. I didn't realize how much I needed it. It took several more moments to get himself back under control, but saying Rory's name always came with flickers of wistful love and sadness. I don't know... if he'll ever really come back, he admitted softly of his mate, facing it for the first time. The last few years have been hard on him. Hard on everyone, I know, but Rory... it's not a bad thing, that he focuses on his land and the farm. There's something in him that needs time and space to heal, but there are days... days I wonder if it will ever really heal or not. It's... hard, sometimes. He felt a little like he was betraying his lover to even admit it, but with Peter's situation he thought Adam might understand better than anyone else. You're right, though. I should go, just to see it for myself at least once. And if Pet won't go with you, well, maybe we can go together and find a bar to drown our sorrows in, he suggested with an attempt at cheerfulness.
