Boreal grumbled happily at the scritches, scaly tail wagging in pleasure. Then it was off to find more rocks for Noah and Ru (none for you, Tal!) until the Valkyrie called them all back together again. The courier looked glumly at the bulging bags of his fellow gatherers. "No jerky for you tonight," he warned his companion pointedly, but Boreal just looked smug as she sat prettily beside Hotaru. She knew he'd cave when she turned the big, sad dragon eyes on him and that his threat was empty.
Tal watched Ru dump her rocks into the water, glancing over to Noah to confirm that the other man was seeing the same thing he was. The rocks really were floating! ... well, most of them. "That ain't right," he grumbled, scowling at the unnatural rocks that had the temerity to float on the scandalously unfrozen water. Magic rocks, indeed!
Following Hotaru's lead, he upended his bag into the little pool and then watched intently as more than half of his haul bobbed back to the surface. Stuffing them back into his bag he glanced at the leader of their tropical expedition with raised brows. "So, uh... how many of these do we need, anyways?"
