Andalun still couldn't quite believe he was this lucky. He was right by the gardevoir, and she was gorgeous! She had the appearance of the sort of girl he wouldn't even have attempted to approach back when he was a human teenager. She might be non-human, but she had all the right visual cues to trigger appreciation in human, or humanoid males.<br/><br/>A psychic was a powerful type, and to get one as his first poke-nom, his alpha, was an incredible stroke of luck. From everything he'd read on online fora beforehand, a Nominator's alpha set the tone for their whole team. As alpha, she'd probably spend more time outside his stomach than the rest of his team, which was another reason her being easy on the eyes was a bonus.<br/><br/>Though a Nominator, as the players in this world were called, was not a poke-nom, they could take part in battles, unlike in another franchise, an idea he definitely approved of. He was well enough equipped physically to stand in for a fighting type until he managed to eat one. A psychic would complement that with ranged attacks where he was weak, at least until he found a way to re-learn or replace the bubble based breath weapon he had in the real world.<br/><br/>Plus she should have sensory powers which would serve them well as early warning. After all, from everything he'd read, he was nowhere near being an apex predator himself. And nominators weren't recoverable via the Recall function on a pokedigest, as the handheld computers Nominators carried were called.<br/><br/>By the same token, he was amazed she hadn't sensed his emotions, both the admiration, and the eagerness to consume her. She might be psychic, but maybe her empathy or telepathy or precognition wasn't active all the time. Actually, he wasn't sure exactly what psychic powers she had. But he knew in her place, he'd have such a useful early warning system running continuously.<br/><br/>Her long ballgown-like cloak or frill was spread out, revealing her slender feet and calves. He practially drooled at the sight of them, right in front of his nose. Given the chance, he'd love to lick them and hold them in his mouth before he swallowed them, but he couldn't take the chance of her coming to her senses and escaping before he could swallow her.<br/><br/>He hunched up, reaching out with his foreclaws and in a single swift movement slid himself forward almost a metre, scooping up her feet and guiding them into his mouth with his foreclaws as he did so. They hit the back of his throat almost immediately, and he gulped, drawing them into his throat and trapping them there with the powerful bands of muscle that ringed his gullet. There were advantages to having your dragon form designed from the ground up for vore.<br/><br/>Now he could take the time to taste her lower legs with his tongue, wrapping it around them, savouring the taste and lubricating them with saliva so another gulp made them slide easily down. His jaws were by now up to her mid-thighs, and the tops of her calves were held by his throat muscles. Howe ver, he wasn't biting, he wanted to swallow her, not hurt her.<br/><br/><span style="font-weight: bold">OOC: </span>Two points. Yes, Andalun is a more anthropomorphic version of the cute mini-dragons from the arcade classic Bubble Bobble. Also, he is a guy, even if his portrait doesn't show any external equipment. Like most reptiles, his testes are inside the body, in his case behind armoured plastron. So a 'swift knee in the happy-sacks' is not a technique that will be effective on him. The rest is tucked away out of sight until he needs it, a much less embarrassing arrangement than most mammal males have.<br/><br/>As for reproduction, I have no idea. His dragon form was designed to his specifications by a powerful kitsune mage, so as far as I know there are no other members of his species, male or female. However, since she's obviously drawn in draconic traits from D&D dragons, he may well be able to produce halfbreeds with just about anything, just like them. Of course the five hundred year lifespan means that fertility should be correspondingly low.
