Sohalia
Whatever her intentions, she hadn't meant to startle the stranger quite that badly, and she immediately stepped forward, hands outstretched, to try to grab some part of him to keep him from falling. Fortunately, he managed to keep his balance, and Soh lowered her arms with relief. "Sorry," she said, looking a bit guilty, not managing to keep a hold on the stern look she'd worn only moments before. She tucked her hands away behind her back, watching with amusement as the stranger tried to hide the dragon behind his back.
Thecatsnake dragon clawed its way up, though, climbing onto the man's head and burping a puff of smoke, which, along with the description of her as a fluffy catsnake, elicited a charmed laugh from Soh. "Refuses to fly, huh?" she asked, tilting her head to one side. She'd never encountered a young dragon, so she knew little of their abilities or desires to fly or not fly, but she thought that maybe she could help. After all, she could fly. Maybe she could teach Pip. "Would a demonstration help?" she asked Pip, momentarily ignoring the dragon's human.
Then she turned back to the stranger. "I'm Soh, by the way. Does Pip like jerky?" she asked, reaching into her pocket for the treats that she kept there in case she ran into her friends and their companions. Boreal, in particular, seemed to like the dried meat, and she was a dragon, too.
