Chapter 120 – Dragon Party

(Navy Dragon) <...>
Turns out my worries of the cave been packed filled with dragons was a little unneeded. Out of the four visiting dragons that have now just arrived, all of them are smaller than father except the orangey-yellow guy, he might be even bigger.
'Quite the few dragons of differing colour here... that really doesn't sound great, got to check status real quick'

'Of course, dragon names are purposely irritating to remember so I'll just remember them in order of appearance. Yellow, cyan, dark-pink and navy-blue... hang on, Mute? That doesn't sound very dragon like'
I'm also pretty sure the only male one is orange but the blue Mute hasn't said a word yet, I think it's a female dragon but you can never be too sure. Also, Mute looks pretty similar to Esmerelda thinking about it, the darkish blue is pretty similar to her purple a little. All the others except the pink are pretty bright in colour though.

'Relax Aesa, I already know all that... heck, you're the prime example of it'
[
'Heh, not what I was about but it kinda is... I was on about the fact you've changed user into Ikarus AGAIN'
[<...>]
Ha! I've actually made Aesa silent; I should probably focus on the dragons today than focusing on winding my system up... I've basically forgotten their names already.
(Yellow)
(Cyan)
(Pink)
(Blue) <...>
This really is a strange group of creatures; this already feels a little awkward since mother seems to be unsure what to say next.Rread latest chapters at novelhall.com... I've forgotten something... Oh, Ikarus and Petra, I should probably introduce you two as well. Starting for left to right is->
In mother's defence, she has been stressing out a little cleaning the cave before they turned up and kept refusing help so I can see why she might be stressed. I'll try and make this easier for her though.
"There's no need to do that mother, I can already tell their names and it's basically guaranteed I'll forget them all"
Seriously though, the big yellow guy was Cyclo-something and the dark blue one is Mute. The other two female dragons, completely forgotten and I'm not going to keep opening my status to remember a dragon's name I'll never come across again... I've definitely jinxed that; I wonder who it'll be we meet again someday.
"Heh, you could just leave status open or keep checking it Ikarus"
"Yeah but then what happens if I look at you by accident when doing it? This isn't a lazy thing this time around"
The thing is, me and Petra have always been EXTREMELY exclusive, the thought of even being with someone else makes me sick and even though she's never said anything like that, I thought she was always the same. No, I know she's the same.
"Heh, relax Ikarus, she's not being serious. I think she's just trying to wind you up and it's clearly worked, don't actually find it that funny but I can see what she's doing"
The thing is, Petra's deadly wrong here...
Oh crap... I forgot Petra doesn't have what basically is a lie detector, is she about to blow?
"Erm... Ikarus would very much be against that if you're serious but we both appreciate the offer... I guess?"
"Yeah... Petra's right... that's a no I'm afraid"
I know my woman too well; she's really struggling right now. Despite the fact her smile and aura seem pretty calm, I know Petra's fuming deep inside and using everything to hide it. I can see why she might see that as a joke, who just comes up to someone basically asking to steal their partner? Dragons really are strange creatures but even she didn't expect one that bold.
<...?>
Then the pink dragon basically pulls a confused looking Mute away to the other side of the cave to join in the conversation about father's inevitable doom that they still are discussing. I'm not listening to that but by the sounds of it, the others are more concerned about the whole thing more than mother and grandfather, it's not like father was against dying I guess... I'm not thinking about that anymore, it'll just get depressing at this rate and I've got something else to deal with.
"Petra... are you alright?"
"Heh... I'm fine Ikarus... say, it would be okay if there were only eight dragons left? Let's say one went missing and never was found... that would be fine, right?"
I know she has extreme inner strength but Petra is clearly trying to mask that anger with humour right now, she's even shaking slightly trying to keep that murderous aura inside. She makes it sound like a joke but that's clearly not one, extreme jealously has always been something most people don't like but I'm not like most people. Point being, she could be completely honest with me and I'd still love her regardless, if anything I like her getting worked up...
"You can be honest with me Petra; it's not going to make me love you any less"
"Heh... do you really want to hear in explicit detail how much I want to kill that dragon right now Ikarus? Sometimes... it's best to leave things hidden away"
Eh, maybe's she's got a point, I know they say relationships are supposed to be based on honesty but it's also about appearing your best to your partner but those two things can come in conflict despite it not being that healthy. It's just a very good thing we both are pretty similar when it comes to things like that but I'd have been a little 'blunter' to that dragon if she had tried anything with Petra... enough about this though, I'm going to try and help Petra out a little.
"Well regardless... cuddle up into me and that will definitely calm you down! Heck, I'll sit on you refuse, can't be having murderous Petra destroying the last of dragon kind. I'm supposed to be the evil one, remember?"
Would that crush her? No, I could easily position myself to avoid that but she may get smothered by orange feathers though. Someday, I'm definitely going to sleep in Petra feathers when she's able to appear her true self without the pain, that honestly sounds so dope...
"Heh... thanks Ikarus..."

(Yellow) <...Enough about that grumpy ol'guy though, that's enough depressing talk for the next few hundred years. We made sure to bring a few gifts like usual to make this event a little less serious and boring>
(Cyan)
(Pink)
(Mute) <...>
After some of the more boring conversations had ended, the yellow dragon Cyclorak has a slight grin on his face from the gifts they've brought. I was wondering what might be in that huge hide bag they were carrying but forgot about it pretty quickly.
Me and Petra have talked a little to the yellow and cyan one a bit more but both of them aren't really interested in knowing every little detail about our lives thankfully enough. Now, it seems like this little meetup might be about to get interesting especially considering mother and grandfather look a little concerned.
By the sounds of it, I know what he's brought...
(Yellow)
The yellow dragon Cyclorak reveals the entire bag filled with types of alcohol I've never seen before. Seriously though, this sack might be the same size as me and it's filled with bottles and bottles of sweet poison! This dragon might have a problem but I don't care...
(Cyan)

(Cyan)
Wait a second, if the dragons have brought alcohol to share with everyone, then fuck no am I turning that shit down! The stronger, the better.
"Hey! If you've brought booze, don't think you ain't sharing with us too! I'd even bet and say we'd be able to drink loads more than you lot"
"Heh, Ikarus may be getting excited but she does have a point"
Mother immediately facepalms at my insistence to drink. This big yellow guy has literally cracked up at my willingness to get pissed, I didn't expect this could turn into a drinking party especially with a drink I've never had before.
I mean, I'm not going to moan at mother for rejecting the invite to drink even more, I have been really good recently apart from my birthday... screw this, I haven't held back and I'm surrounded by a bunch of happy looking dragons who are already about to drink... hey, wait for me and Petra!
"Oi! Before you start though, lemme change form real quickly..."
Tonight's gonna be a blast now, I wonder if I'll get to witness a drunk Petra too but knowing how things normally go, things are about to go blurry...
