[eggstinction]

[curls around him and nuzzles the top of his head]

I'm home.

[crimeson]

My sweet, fancy baby dragon.

[eggstinction]

[—laughs, laughs and peeps! peep peep baby peeps]

[crimeson]

[mimicks a peep and twists to kiss his chin]

[eggstinction]

[ducks down to give him a peck. cheep!]

Now who's cute!

[crimeson]

Very much you, darlin'.

[eggstinction]

No!

[sticks his nose in randy's hair —to bite one of his wolf ears, but. he's not used to them being gone yet!]

[crimeson]

Yep! I can't even wag anymore, and I get t'see your egg. The cuteness is even more you than before.

[eggstinction]

I will not say if that logic is right or wrong, but that is logic there! I will miss your tail. I liked to hear it thump.

[crimeson]

Can't say I ain't gonna miss it in some ways. But I'm back to being a normal guy.

[eggstinction]

[alas ears alas tail alas knot]

Back to being human, but everything I love is still here.

[crimeson]

[THEY WERE ALL VERY FUN WHILE THEY LASTED.

Kinda melts, blushing.]

Geez...

[eggstinction]

And look, there is something cute here still.

[whistles sweetly and nuzzles his cheek before kissing him softly.]

[crimeson]

[seems like the vaguely canine whiny noises were just from Randy being Randy, judging by the incoherent grumble right before he returns that kiss.]

[eggstinction]

[cradles his face so, so tenderly]

Let me show you our nest.

[crimeson]

[OUR nest,,,]

...Please.

[eggstinction]

[OURS! yours!!]

It is not far.

[Moon kisses him again as if to apologize for not lingering the entire night on the balcony. but it’s only a little further along the terrace before they come to another row of wide-open windows. why use a hallway and doors? all of moon’s private quarters share this balcony.]

[crimeson]

[cute. peeking in.]

[eggstinction]

[there's no lights lit inside, but the big windows fill it with moonlight. most of the room is taken up by a round depression in the middle of the floor— a dragon-sized nest. it's ringed by a low, ornately-carved wooden screen and lined with fresh rush mats.

there's also a second, more human-sized nest. this one, like a giant wooden bowl, is carved in the same style as the other's screen, but it's scuffed and worn, and there's eight-legged scratchmarks scrabbling up the sides in more than one spot. it's filled with patchwork silk cushions, there's a forgotten robe buried among the quilts, and there's an empty mug hooked on one of the carvings.

besides the nests, there's a desk covered in knick-knacks and a dining table covered in paperwork. windchimes and light-catchers hang from the ceiling overhead. a few doors lead off to other spaces.

Moon is skipping the balcony door and climbing in through one of the windows.]

Come in, come in.

[crimeson]

[chuckles and climbs in the window after him, who needs DOORS.]

Big nest lil nest, huh?

[eying those scratchmarks, that's the sex nest huh,]

[eggstinction]

[scratchmarks can have innocent reasons! it’s a multi-purpose nest…!]

I have a big size and a lil size, so.

[crimeson]

[yes but it's also Randy.]

"Lil", huh.

[shoulderbunp, then striding forward for a closer look.]

[eggstinction]

Simply petite.

[chitters and follows, tidying as he goes. the robe gets pulled out and tossed towards one of the doors, a dressing room probably. the mug is moved to a guilty stack of empty tea bowls on the table.

most of the cushions and blankets are quilted. he’s the Lord of Lords, but this is his personal nest in his private wing, he doesn’t need to show off. instead of lavish sheets or handsome brocade, he has patchwork scraps from his and household’s old clothes.]

[crimeson]

[slipping into... the big nest, and starfishing happily]

What does that make me, big guy?

[eggstinction]

[the rush mats are comfortably firm, meant to cushion a dragon’s weight instead of a human’s, and they put off a nice grassy scent.

moon sits down next to him and bends over to kiss his forehead]

It makes you dainty.
