envy on the coast [taco]

[RAWLZ]

Once again he found his bare feet touching sand, this time is wasn't scorching hot and dry though. The cool sensation of water made him relaxed as it crawled over his toes in a frenzy, the tips of the water curled into white foam fingers. Black slacks and loose, white button up shirt flapped lazily in the breeze as he ambled down the beach, his thoughts circling around his hatchling. She was definately confident though a slight vain streak was apparent almost right from the start. He had already began to tease her slightly and a slight nip on the hand earlier had told him that even though she was still small she wasn't afraid to put him in his place. Chuckling at the thought he scanned the sandy shore for the green female before seeing her pearched on the edge of a tide pool.

"Why would you tease the fish like that, Deino? You know they're scared for their lives."

His deep voice carried to her easily and her delicate skull snapped up to watch him, her thought flow changing to sarcastic as she went back to stare into the small pool of water.

"They are so funny though, and lovely to eat. Pick me up, Tiger."

He already had his arms outstretched when she jumped toward him, her claws digging slightly into his flesh as she crawled upward to perch herself on his shoulder. Scratching underneath her chin for a moment, he took a glance into the pool of scattered fish before snorting at her words. He had bigger plans than playing with fish and she knew it. Footprint path led him close to the ocean edge, the salty air breezing against his face and making his eyes smart slightly.

Alex loved the beach, and he'd already hidden his clothes in a patch of rocks before he'd waded out into the water for a swim. His hairless, lean body slipping through the water as he played with his dragon. He'd learned that his dragon didn't like being called Streaker, so he'd have to think of another name for his dragon now. Streak seemed like a good name, because of the streak of lightening like color of white and blue that went from his dragons head to the tip of his dragon's tail. Though when he thought about it, he supposed there wouldn't be much difference in the names. Alex wanted something classy, elegant, and perhaps even a bit colorful for his dragon's name. Swimming in the water, his hair clinging to his forehead, Vlad swam toward shore, his dragon riding on his shoulder.

"I smell another human and another dragon!"

"You do?" Alex asked, seeing the dragon and human his dragon had mentioned walking on the sand close to the tide pools. "There they are.."

"I knew I smelled a dragon! She's a Jun Yu!"

"Okay.." Alex said, unsure of what a Jun Yu was as he reached where he could stand in the water, slowly walking up out of it and onto the sand, wearing a pair of white shorts.

"Now who's the Streaker?" his dragon asked, nipping at his ear and making him chuckle.

"I've got clothes on.." Alex replied, blushing. "I'm wearing shorts.."

Once he was up on the sand, out of the water, Alex's dragon hopped down from his shoulder and ran over to where the other dragon and boy were, snapping at the boys knees as he greeted the other dragon.

"Jun Yu! Jun Yu! I'm happy to see you!" he called up at her, flapping his small wings in greeting and shaking his tail.

"Look what the dragon drug in."

Shoulders instantly straightened from his slightly hunched position as he pushed himself to his full height. The light weight of his partner shifted slightly as he felt her thought channel turn into curiousity and disdain for the over-excited creature. Air wooshed past his face, hair being tossed widly to one side, as the female hatchling hopped to the ground, her wings only prociding her little stability at the moment. He watched her bare her small, sharp teeth at the male hatchling.

"Behave! Why must you gamble about like this? What are you doing!"

A small smile curled his lips as he watched her chase the other hatchling around before backing herself against his legs, her tail twitching slightly. Reaching down to pat her head a few times he glanced up, crossing his arms across his chest.

"So what's your name? Oh, this is Deino, by the way. She's always like this but inside she's a teddy bear."

Leaning to the side his gaze traveled over the boy's features. He didn't look very old, if he even reached maturity, but he had to be some teen age to have bonded with this excited hatchling. The boy didn't look bad whatsoever but he wasn't going to speak his mind just yet, he wanted to see how everything played out conversation wise before he dived too deep into the bucket of secrets.

"Because this is the first time I've seen another dragon since I hatched!" the small dragon belonging to Alex responded, dancing around the small female dragon and looking at her from all angles.

"You're really pretty! Wanna be friends?!" he asked excitedly, obviously distracted and enjoying himself, ignoring her menacing tone and laughing as he was chased a bit, thinking they were playing a game of tag or something.

"What's your name? My bonded keeps calling me Streaker, but then I explained that dragons don't wear clothes. Oh! Is that your human?" he asked, watching the small female back up into the legs of her bonded, looking him over. Hearing the guy say his dragons name, Alex's dragon tilted it's head to the side, eying the small female.

"Your names Deino? What does it mean?"

Alex, meanwhile, walked in onto shore and following his dragon, laughing at his dragon's antics before he licked his lips and smiled at the boy who owned the other dragon.

"My name's Alex. You'll have to forgive Streaker there. He's a bit hyper sometimes. I tried not giving him sugar, but it made no difference." he said, blushing the tiniest bit as he looked the boy over. "I hope streaker isn't bothering you or Deino." he said, picking his dragon up and holding him, trying to keep Streaker from embarrassing himself. "Your dragon is quite lovely. Do you know how big she'll get?" he asked, trying to make conversation.

[RAWLZ]

He almost laughed outright at the mixture out outrageous emotions that were being filtered through their connection. The small grew slightly wide as he watched her jerk her head forward to snap at the other little dragon before rearing up. It almost seemed like she had grown in the past day or two he had her, but he knew she wouldn't be extremely large. Medium perhaps, just big enough to ride.

"Flying will be joyous, though the waves are more of my cup of tea."

"Go and play, Deino, make a friend perhaps? It won't kill you to act your age."

He clucked at her lovingly and she looked at him grudgingly before settling down into the sand and darting off into the waves. Her teal frame dove in and out of the cool waters easily, her hide sparkling like a beautiful gem by the beads of water that caught the sun's sparkling rays. A bright glare came from her as she turned to disappear underneath the waves again and he shrank back from it, mumbling. Brows deepened to make his face etch into hard lines but he listened to the other boy talk. Alex. Nice name.

"I'm Tiger. Oh its fine, he's got plenty of time to learn manners. Deino is just all business and no play usually."

"Watch yourself, boy." He chuckled as the thought drifted to him from her head as she popped up from the lazy tide.

Looking back at Alex, his eyes drifted down to peer at his dragon. Streaker. He found the name completely amusing and he couldn't help but to laugh again at the thought of a bare dragon. "I'm sorry to say, little Streaker, but you aren't wearing any sort of covering fabric." Shrugging slightly he listened with a tilted head as Deino explained the meaning of her name. "It means "terrible" in Greek." Her frame, slightly larger than Streaker, elegantly crossed the sand again before she tucked herself at his feet again. Remembering a question being asked, he ran a hand through his wild hair. "Well, she's a tad bit larger than your boy. Maybe just big enough to ride when she's older."

Seeing the female dragon go into the waves, Streaker squirmed in Alex's arms until he stood on Alex shoulder, intently watching the very slightly larger female. He was definitely interested in her, and wondering if they were both born on the dunes from a nest of water dragons. If so, then the female dragon swimming in the water was his sister. Struck by that very thought, he sent the thought and question through his link with Alex, making Alex laugh a bit.

"Streaker wants to know if you found Deino on the sand dune, in a clutch of blue dragons eggs, some of which had hatched." he said, voicing his dragons question for him. Licking his lips again, he gazed into Tiger's eyes, nodding politely. "As for height, I think you're right. I'm not sure if Streaker will get big enough for me to ride, but I'm hoping so." he said, voicing his honest and sincere thoughts on the matter.

Hearing the other human laugh at him, Streaker looked over his shoulder at Tiger, giving him a somewhat 'not amused' look. It was one thing for his bonded human to call him a Streaker, but a stranger? Why was a stranger looking at him that closely? What did it matter if he wasn't wearing clothes? Was this strange human some kind of old pedophile that raped young dragons like himself? Suddenly nervous, he hid behind Alex's neck, hesitantly peeking over the top of Alex's head at Tiger, as if keeping an eye on him.

"Your human's a pervert! He was checking out my who who!" Streaker said, speaking to Deino. Having heard what Deino had said about her name, Streaker blinked as he glanced back at her, tilting his head again. "Why would you want to be called 'terrible'? I think you're my sister."

Hearing what Streaker was saying, Alex couldn't help cracking up and laughing a lot, eyes twinkling. Smiling at Tiger, his face now beat red, he cleared his throat. "You might wanna refrain from mentioning Streaker's lack of clothing. He's kinda sensitive about it and thinks you were looking a bit too close, if you know what I mean." he said, feeling embarrassed yet amused at the same time.

"Hey! Don't tell him to look at my who who!" Streaker said, flicking Alex's ear with his tail, causing Alex to wince a bit. "That's creepy!"
