<span style="color: #5900b3">“She’s a curious child so I let her see what I had. And it’s much better than the Black one sticking her whole face in Ana’s bowl. You may have the power but who knows what The’kal did to him, she’s given him three lives so I doubt she would let him be vulnerable to much of anything. You can still be friends with him, I just need to figure out where this racism towards you came from and squash it.” </span>She sighed softly.<span style="color: #5900b3">“They are dragonlings, you need them, and they have small problems but that doesn’t mean you need to help them right away. Just don’t close your heart to them permanently.”</span>Vyre smirked and nodded. “<span style="color: #5900b3">Then you’ll be waiting until I lay this egg. Can your sweet body wait that long?</span>” The child watched Ashia then tried to imitate the motion but lacked the fine motor skills her Black sibling had. Vyre suddenly jumped as a kitchen cleaver slammed into the kitchen table and Ras appeared covered in blood and flour. “Enough with the yelling Vyre! I’m busy! Oh, hey runt. Hey Ana.” The Black hatchling chirped excitedly and teleported into Ras’ arms then flopped onto her back so he could scratch her belly. “I told you I was getting dinner prepared and that I would talk to you later. So why have you been yelling at me nonstop since then?” Despite holding her daughter he didn’t so much as glance at Ashia while the hatchling kicked her leg happily and let her tongue flop out.<span style="color: #5900b3">“Because I want to know why you’ve been such a dickhead to Ashia! She’s done nothing wrong to you.”</span>Ras finally looked at Ashia and shook his head. “It doesn’t matter now does it? I said what I said and I can’t take it back.” He summoned a small blanket and swaddled the hatchling making her coo and hiss before falling asleep in a matter of moments. Ras offered the bundled baby to Ashia and picked up his knife. “If you cover the spots on her back where a dragon’s wings should be she can’t teleport. It makes it easier to keep her in one place. I’m going back home so stop fucking yelling at me!”<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
