[paddra_nsu_yeul]

(Yeul is standing in the snow, yet it doesn't seem to bother her. She stares at her communicator and then expels a foggy breath.)

This isn't where I wish to introduce myself. (Somewhere warm would be nice.) I seek a man named Noel. Is there anyone here by that name?

(She lays a hand against her chest.)

I am Yeul. (One of them anyway.) The last Yeul who will ever exist.

Comments

( video > action )

[nilhilistic]

Yes, I did.

[ and that's his last response as he takes to the skies, a large black dragon with pink frills. he flies over the world, high above before he spots the location and begins his descent a few metres away. he doesn't know how she feels about dragons and it's best not to add to her distress.

the cold doesn't bother him as he trudges through the snow, grumbling to himself for doing this, there were plenty of other, better equipped and kinder people . . .

he squints, looking around. ]

Yeul?

( action )

[paddra_nsu_yeul]

(Dragons probably wouldn't faze her since she literally saw the end of her world (multiple times), but his thoughtfulness is appreciated.

Yeul waves to him from in front of the apartment building, wearing...

A short skirt, a sleeveless top, boots and... Well, at least she has long hair? That's almost good for warmth.)

I'm over here.

[nilhilistic]

[ yeah, that would explain it. rafal sighs. ]

Did anyone there offer you a jacket?

[paddra_nsu_yeul]

They told me to come in. Will you come with me? (She holds out a flower to him.)

[nilhilistic]

[ why do people keep giving him flowers, what is he supposed to do with them??

but he nods. ]

Fine, if it'll help.

[ and she'll be safe, at least. though, with rafal, that is always 50/50. ]

[paddra_nsu_yeul]

(Because he looks like he needs something bright and pretty, obviously.)

It will. (She lets herself into the building and waits for him to follow. It is warm inside.) I suppose I'm in Winter.

[nilhilistic]

[ rafal steps inside, looking around warily. he tucks the flower away, uncertainly. ]

Possibly because that is where your power originates from. Mine is Autumn.

It is best for you to find lodgings in the city though.

[paddra_nsu_yeul]

Is the city safer? (She is walking around the entry, running her hand along the wall.) Your power comes from Autumn. What is it like? Winter has to do with...Water.

[nilhilistic]

It is connected to the other seasons. Thus, making it easier to travel. No season is better than the other.

[ and rafal is only concerned about utility. he hasn't given much thought to pleasure or preferences. ]

I do not know, I haven't used it much. I have plenty of my own power. I do not require this world's gifts.

[paddra_nsu_yeul]

Mm. (She hesitates and then looks at him squarely.) Can you take me to the city? How did you arrive so quickly?

[nilhilistic]

[ ah. ]

I flew. I am a dragon and I can transform when I choose to.

[paddra_nsu_yeul]

(Her expression doesn't even twitch.)

Will you show me?

[nilhilistic]

Not inside.

Are you ready to leave?

[paddra_nsu_yeul]

Mm I am. (Yeul hurries back outside and, this time, she gives a shiver.) Are there any other dragons in Autumn?

[nilhilistic]

I wouldn't know. There are a few dragons in this place, but I do not think we are all in the same location.

Stand back a little. I'll need space to transform.

[paddra_nsu_yeul]

(She moves back a good distance and waits.)

Dragons existed in my world. They're gone now.

[nilhilistic]

That does not surprise me.

[ after all, dragons were all but wiped out in his own world. either way, rafal activates his dragonstone, turning into a dragon. he fans his wings for a moment. ]

You will need to climb on. And hold tight.

[paddra_nsu_yeul]

(Yeul brightens at the change and approaches him without hesitation or fear. She lays a hand on his leg - she probably can't reach his side - and nods.

Then she starts to climb. She isn't the best, but she is trying!)

You're big.

[nilhilistic]

[ the dragon huffs. ]

Of course.

Are you holding on?

[paddra_nsu_yeul]

(Yeul lays against his back, hugging onto him.)

Yes. Let's go to the city.

[nilhilistic]

Hm. Let me know if I go too high.

[ he flaps his wings once more before taking off. ]

[paddra_nsu_yeul]

I will. (She will likely end up enjoying the trip. Who doesn't like flying on a dragon's back?)

Wow!

[nilhilistic]

[ rafal huffs once more, pleased. the pride of a dragon, his pride for being able to take this form after so long.

they arrive at the outskirts of nightwake. he waits until she climbs down carefully before transforming back to his human form. ]

[paddra_nsu_yeul]

(He is a lovely dragon and Yeul slides from his back, smiling giddily. This is why he will be given a flower every time they meet! Would he prefer meat?

The city is big and she observes the people curiously.

But, as always, at a distance.)

[nilhilistic]

[ rafal scoffs. ]

What are you afraid of?
