And I hope if everybody runs, you choose to stay
Wary as always of anyone his bonded got close to, the dragon approached but slowly. Slitted narrow eyes took in the tall man and his outstretched hand. The fingers wiggling before Umbra's nose looked like sausages, but a sharp thought from Seren put him off the temptation to take a nibble. Instead he nudged his head into the hand, grudgingly allowing some moderate worship of his glorious self, while contemplating the man's scent.
"She absolutely should. Yeah, just having fun," Seren agreed cheerfully. Slipping an arm around Locke's back, she nestled herself in beneath his arm like he truly was the brother she had accepted him as. "We talked about... mh, a bit of everything. What makes you reckless, and whether it's best to fight or run when something happens, that sort of thing."
It was grossly simplified of course, but Seren wouldn't repeat the whole conversation. She absolutely could... but there were too many secrets there that were not hers to share. "Mother showed me a new trick!" she offered instead, eager and excited as always. "I will be able to go almost anywhere I like now."
Looking up at the man, whom she scarcely knew but had tucked neatly away into the 'family' category all the same, she recalled the letter he'd written. "You wrote in your letter that you wanted to show me something? What is it, did something happen?"
