Kokyu ♠︎ Dragon Scout ♠︎ Tags: Woodland near human city; Jessica
Kokyu made a "hmf" sound at Jessica's words, murmuring, "Yes, I've seen many things in my days. People always want what they don't have... I suppose that rule applies to us as well. Though... They do not seem to be able to track magic? I knew there were a few different kinds, but if it were to ward against dragons I would have felt it..." Kokyu had seen a fair share of dragon-inspired objects, though never cheaply made figured to ward them off. The mockery made him snort and consider getting one as a joke. Kokyu didn't really have a problem with get species, though he did still find them a bit foolish in an amusing way. The man turned his head when he noticed the narrowed eyes and grin aimed his way, and regarding Jessica with an arched eyebrow, was quickly distracted by the coin. "It's really nothing..." He protested as he cupped the coin in his hands, though his eyes had followed it the entire way. "I mean, I did have a hoard at one point but it's long gone now..." After realising that he was a few steps behind the traveler took a few quick paces to catch up. At the girl's comment about his nose he scrunched it up just to spite her. "I can still fly in this form." He reminded her, glancing to the houses they passed with slight distain. "How can people live in such places? I would be walking rounds around the building of I were cooped up there..."

Mathias Iversen ♠︎ Human Soldier ♠︎ Tags: Royal Army Forward Camp Delta; Titus, group of dragons, some more people
The man noticed Ahone's look and exhaustion, wondering if he was thinking about Titus' reaction to him in the cave. It was eye-catching, and Mathias himself would probably be yelled at, but he would much rather be in his own shoes than the land's heir. Feeling almost sympathitic for the prince the brown-haired man looked back to the thoughtful Moon for her answer. He listened patiently, finding the actions of her village strangely familiar yet unheard of. Mathias watched the girl as she told her story, expressionless. She didn't seem too concerned with her giving away of her powers of telepathy, and the explanation seemed simple enough. What really struck the soldier as strange were her eyes though- dragons in human skins were known to have eyes that were... Well, eye-catching, which hers certainly were. "Huh, and here I thought people in the capital were crazy... And you mean to tell me your were trained to kill a dragon at an age younger than you are now?" He stopped short when he felt the windless sky over them hit them with a blast of air. Mathias' eyepatch, which had apparently loosened since the fight, was as quickly clamped back onto his head as the gust had arrived, and snapping back he saw the movement of an invisible force.
Still holding a hand over his eyepatched eye, Mathias' good eye followed Akuji sharply. The soldier was a fine tracker, and while unseen forces were dangerous, they were far less so once they had moved. It was like catching a firefly in the dark. He glared back at the unseen dragon's position, and stayed that way though he knew he could do nothing. Now that he had a general idea of where the other was, though, perhaps he could scare him off. Showing no visible signs that he was using his power the brunet created an illusion of the ground starting to open where the creature- dragon or not - seemed to have landed. The opening crevice groaned and cracked, complete with the false thought of a shaking ground. Of course, most of his energy was fuelled into tricking e dragon in question, so the man didn't know who else would notice it.

Laura ♠︎ Dragon enchantress ♠︎ Tags: outside of a small town; Dahlia
Laura fiddled with the edges of her coat's sleeves. She really was restless, as Dahlia had guessed; it had been months since the woman had shifted and she was itching to fly- even though she had learned to live in her current form for years on end. She had no time to think about all of this now, though, since a dragon really didn't have a place looking for customers in a human city.
Her pink irises rested again on Dahlia, and she smiled at the name. "I find that rather surprising... You seem pleasant enough to me." She voiced, no lie in her words. Her... Odd jobs didn't seem to make too much of a profit, but perhaps... Laura continued listening with a keen interest, her features calming as the other listed off examples of her work. The last one in particular caught the girl's attention and made her give a soft snort of amusement. "Paid to befriend? And you think you aren't well liked?" The shifter now held her hands together with her head titled to the side a bit- partly because it was comfortable, and partly to keep an eye on her cart.
"But, uh, if you would happen to want to make an exchange, I may be able to bring you to a bigger city." She threw out casually, not wanting to make too big of a deal out of it. "Of course, I would perhaps like to listen to your terms of work."
