Her chest tightened - just the smallest bit - as she looked up at him, just smiling. He was a very thoughtful man, wasn't he? His conjecture about playing with food made Ichta look down at Aurinkoth thoughtfully and the blue cheeped at her. By the shell of the first egg, could he have been any more darling? Clearly, yes.
"I never thought about that before, but it....it seems likely." those poor little beasts would be in for a terrifying ride and Ichta was briefly grateful that dragons didn't have a taste for human flesh. She offered the blue another piece and this time he took it gently from her open palm, nudging his snout against her hand.
At Elzebuth's question, Aurinkoth tilted his head, then looked up at the two rider's.
I don't need much more, Ichtamine. You can give Elzebuth some of mine. he offered - so both rider's could hear it. Ichta frowned, knowing fully well that yes, the bite she was feeling wasn't entirely from a blue. "You say that, but I know you'll angle for a piece of fruit from me if I don't feed you properly."
