A quiet snort of laughter could be heard coming from Fayne. Stinkhead? Really? That's the best this kid could come up with? Other than that, though, she continued to ignore the stranger - and the dragon.
Bedresia was a little surprised that Vivian was taking the initiative now to be friendly, considering how frightened of her she had been just moments ago. But that was all right. After spending all her time around a mentally cracked ex-rider, a friendly gesture was welcome every now and again.
As if to affirm the girl's comment about Fayne, the dragon made a quiet sound that could almost be interpreted as a laugh. For a moment or two she simply enjoyed the attention she was getting - and then she got an idea. Maybe she couldn't actually tell Vivian what was going on...but she could steer the conversation in a direction that Fayne couldn't avoid.
Pulling away from the girl, she knocked her head against the rider in such a way that it tipped her over onto her back, then virtually laid on top of her to pin her down. If her master tried to lash out at her, she couldn't really do much damage. And she knew better than to aim that crossbow her direction.
Fayne never saw what was coming. The wind was knocked out of her momentarily when the dragon pinned her, and she didn't notice what the creature was doing until well after the fact. She tried in vain to force Dresi off her when she saw that the decorative dagger had been removed from her belt - of course, it did her little good. "Damn it, Dresi! Put that down!"
Okay. Fine. Bedresia tossed the dagger from her mouth off in Vivian's direction, well out of her master's reach. Hey, Fayne never said where she had to put it down, right? The dragon didn't let the woman up, either. She knew Fayne would try to physically walk away if Vivian asked about the name Cyrus that was stitched into the weapon's leather scabbard. This way she couldn't try to lash out, either, if someone angered her.
