he looked over to humdrum, seeing him actually afraid for the first time. "guess that answers my question," he quickly said to the bear. he wasn't sure how to proceed, should he try talking to both of the dragons now? do they perhaps live here? or are they, like nico and humdrum, also lost and confused in this strange place?
as he thought about the possibilities, the second dragon flew up to the first one, and nico noticed that it was seemingly trying to protect the bigger dragon. it's roaring and movement definitely made nico step even further back, but then suddenly an idea popped into his head.
he plopped down onto the ground, sitting cross-legged, and tried to even out his breathing as much as possible. using the calmest voice he could muster, he spoke "we're very lost. we're offering you friendship." he smiled at the dragons, as fuzzykins moved down into his lap and laid down. "however, if you want us to leave you alone, we'll go. just please know that we don't want to hurt you." he petted his ferret, as she made soft noises, showing her appreciation. he knew that he could probably just back away, and that him and humdrum could just go back the way they came and leave this situation. but he didn't want to leave the dragons letting them believe that he was going to cause them harm. even if they went their separate ways, nico wanted to make sure that they were aware that he is friendly and very, very, very lost and afraid.
