setting: a valley surrounded by large, rocky mountains.

this thread is where you can have your dragon interact with other dragons, keep all role play pg-13...and that's about it.

A small, chocolate-brown bundle squirmed. The tall grass reeds towered over him, acting like a shield to protect him from the wind. He was only a few days old, but already his senses were sharp. From a long distance he could smell water or a food source. At about the same distance he could hear the sound of birds singing, and if he strained his ears enough he could hear the humming of a hummingbird's wings.

The gem on his forehead reflected the light of the sun. It glittered as he shifted the position of his head. His eyes slowly fluttered open as a breeze blew above; the tall grass swaying like water. A scent was carried on the wind. Something somewhere smelled of strong pine. After drawing in a long inhale, the dragon sneezed. The sneeze came out as a loud snort that kicked up dirt beneath his chin. He shook his head as the dirt cloud disappeared, and gradually lifted it with closed eyes and a half-open mouth.

There was a pause in his actions. The wind died down and the grass reeds stopped moving. Sounds of crickets grew louder in the absence of the wind. When the wind picked up again, the small dragon pup snorted and then sneezed into the dirt again. He whimpered and made squeaking sounds as he slowly lifted his rear end into the air. With a few more grunts and squeaks he managed to stand on all four legs. Though his eyes were still closed, he moved his head from side to side as if he was slowly taking in the appearance of his surroundings.

Swaying a little, he stepped on clawed paw forward. He made a cat-like noise and lifted his head up. Standing up, his head was visible above the grass. He opened one eye slowly and then the other. As the grass swayed gently the trees' leaves brushed against each other to make a sound similar to an ocean. The dragon pup slowly mastered the ability to walk on all fours. He emerged from the sea of the tall grass. At the sight of the plains, littered with patches of wild flowers and small hills of over-grown grass, he became excited.

Something from behind began waging, slowly at first and then a little more violently. The sensation was caused by a strange pins-and-needles feeling crawling up and down his spine. The dragon pup looked over his shoulder to see what it was that was moving behind him. When he saw that it was something attached to his body, he began to attempt to catch it in his mouth. He lost his footing, grunted when his face was flattened into the ground, but regained his balance by laying down on his belly.

Shifting weight from paw to paw, claws dug delicately into the soft dirt, an exuberant dragon of teal and purple steadied herself as she stood. The grasses towered above her waving slightly in the light breeze; she lifted her head to catch the new smells and lost balance. Toppling over herself and a short way down a hill, she saw a blaze of color as the world flew past her. She skidded to a halt lying flat on her belly, feet out in front, grey claws seeking traction.

She gathered her self and drew command over her legs lifting herself up once again. Bringing one foot in front of the other she took a few steps resulting in a loss of balance again, however this time she followed up with both her hind legs and managed to hop and regain footing. This new mode of movement excited her and she quickly began to bounce rather than stumble around walking.

Hijinx heard a cry as she bounded through the tall grasses; she stalled for just a moment, just a moment long enough for her to topple once again. She laid there listening for more noises, when she didn’t hear anything else she began to move. In a crouch she slinked unsteadily through the grasses hoping to sneak up on something fun and different.

Glimpses of a darker brown shown through the emerald sea she had been stalking in, and a new smell reached her nose one that tickled the senses. Before her nose could direct a sneeze her legs launched her body forward, out of the grasses, she called out in a small but loud cry.
