<span style="color: #5900b3">"Maybe holding me will help? When I finish eating we can lay down and cuddle for a while." </span>She slid her bowl of food to Ana and grabbed the hatchling who dove for it then growled at her making her teleport away.<span style="color: #5900b3">"She's fast. I am going to have a long conversation with Ras about this, and it's going to involve my spear and armor. I know he's not your biggest fan but him treating you like this is completely unacceptable and I won't stand for it."</span>She bit her lip and shook her head.<span style="color: #5900b3">"Ashia, my love, I'd probably do the same thing. She seemed to like having something to chase and it would be a good way to tire her out and... she behaves like a kitten." </span>She tapped her nails on the table again and the hatchling dashed out of the shadows and pounced on Vyre's fingers.<span style="color: #5900b3"> "See? And for what it's worth I've heard Ras talk about Kitori and he seethes when he does. He gave your child a fun and harmless toy, he shoved Kitori into another building and forbade her from entering his home." </span>She frowned when Ashia left and appeared.<span style="color: #5900b3">"That's Emily's child too, you know." </span>The Blue seemed entirely unfazed by everything going on around her and if anything seemed to be annoyed by Ashia holding her.<span style="color: #5900b3">"That one is so much smaller, is she younger?" </span>Despite hatching just hours apart there was a noticeable size difference between the two, while the Blue was smaller and with a less developed body her mind seemed to be developing faster much like Emily, who was tiny compared to the other dragonlings. The Black hatchling, like Nail, had larger and more developed front legs but lacked the wings and the hatchling also seemed to lack the ability to breathe smoke. Rather, she was able to summon smoke around herself like a shroud to hide in.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
