"Not that I don't absolutely love standing around outside to watch you slaughter some poor, helpless forest creature, but we were just at a pub. You couldn't have found something there to munch on which involved less freezing on my part?" Khai threw a disapproving look over his shoulder at his dragon, his jacket doing little to defend him from the cool air as night began to settle, though it was in vain. Roxanna's meal was a far more interesting pursuit than entertaining questions she had already answered on their way here and to prove that, she ripped another mouthful from the carcass.
("I've already told you that I don't like the way humans season their food, but I doubt you were listening. You were too busy staring at the chest of the brunette at the table across from us,") she commented through their mindlink, somewhat grumpily too, if he heard right. "I wasn't staring, I was admiring. You know, her dress." A terrible lie if the look she gave him was any indicator, but how was that his fault? The girl in question was gifted, and if he had had a bit more time, he'd be much warmer now.
Khai was willing to bet he wouldn't be getting nearly as many unamused looks either from that particular female companion, unlike now. He probably should have been thanking his lucky stars right about now anyway that she hadn't thumped him right in the back of the head like last time. If he'd learned anything in their time together, it was that dragons weren't a very patient species, especially when hungry. "Okay, just hurry. It's getting dark and if I know anything about outdoor-type areas, it's that big things with big teeth come out at night."
For that, he earned a disdainful snort from her. ("I'm a dragon, if you haven't noticed. I--") A shrill shriek brought the conversation to a halt and both heads turned to the direction of its origin. "You were saying something about big things?" It was a short albeit reluctant trek to the general vicinity in which the noise had come from, but instead of finding a vicious monster worthy of that pitch, there was a lone woman with a bow. After a brief glance around, Khai spoke up. "Is everything okay?"
