Subject line

Deckard: Why did you take them?

Wyrm: They were in my territory. As were you and the noisy one still outside.

Deckard: We didn't see anything we recognized as boundaries that we crossed. Return my companions and tell us where your boundaries are. We'll get outside of them and be on our way.

Wyrm: Hnm. Quite the negotiator, aren't you. *the dragon's tail comes around to wrap around him....he won't escape being grabbed* You still haven't answered me, though. What are you willing to do to get them back?

Deckard: Ah! *struggles* Sir, this is rude. Please put me down. And I don't give blanket answers like that. What is it that you could possibly /want/? From me /or/ them.

Wyrm: Rude? Rude is passing through another's home, rude is stealing what few orbs can be found in the dunes, my dunes. I should swallow the lot of you and let your spirits waste away inside me. *comes out a rumble...but then he seems to calm* The desert, in its entirety, is my territory. You were trespassing the moment you stepped onto the sands. .......I will grant you this, you are the first to come here to talk rather than immediately trying to kill.

Deckard: I don't want any trouble with you. I'm not here to kill you. I just want my companions back so we can continue our journey. And I hope you'll forgive us, but there's nothing indicating /anywhere/ that the desert actually belongs to anyone. Maybe a fence or some signs are in order. A designated safe path would be good too. There's no going /around/ the desert, so anyone needing to get to the other side /must/ cross through it. And again, /please/ put me /down/.

	Wyrm: It is what your kind do anyway, try to kill me, your reasons may be different, but the actions are all the same. Mitham: steps around into view What would it take for you to let us go? You want company, right? So...so what if I stayed? Would you let them go? Wyrm: eyes the boy ...Yes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Deckard: Don't twist my words, dragon. I didn't say I /wanted/ to kill you. Only that we will defend ourselves to whatever extent /you/ push- *looks at Mitham, and scoops him up onto his shoulder* No. You have a sick little girl to get back to, before /she/ winds up either here - dead with the rest of us - or worse, enslaved. You've said it yourself. None of us can go back to life in /your/ world, so you have to do it. *stoops and gathers Kagerou into his arms – to the dragon* You wish to be left alone in peace, then allow us to give you that. Let us leave. Or if company really is what you want, then let us leave and come with us.

Mitham: Deckard. *his voice catches* I probably don't have a body I can go back to anyway...
Wyrm: *watching Deckard*
Stars: *steps up and pulls Deckard back from Kage, pushing Dream into Deckard's arms. He's bigger, he can more easily carry Kage* We're leaving now, join us, or get out of the way.
Wyrm: ........*will block them from passing him, but the body language is more than he's got something to say than just that he's refusing to let them leave.* Come with you? *tone of "are you serious?"*

Deckard: ……..you don't know that, Mitham. You have to hope. *startles at being pulled back, but then accepts Dream – to the dragon* We haven't tried to hurt you, and you haven't tried to eat us. *he starts to follow that with something simply along the lines of "why not", but pauses at a thought* Honestly, having some of your size and strength along could be a really big advantage. We still have several obstacles and threats ahead. In return, if anyone else tries to attack you, we'd defend you. What's your name?

Mitham: *looks away. Hope....hope is not something someone like him is used to having*
Wyrm: ...*growls and rumbles, Deckard may even pick up something like a click in all of that noise.......but as this place turns all languages into something the hearer understands they'll also hear* Sandstorm. *there's a bit of an awkward pause* And yours? *he's heard them say each other's names, but hasn't actually been introduced...well, except for Deckard, and he does seem to be addressing Stars and Mitham too.*

Sand: *can't help the suspicion in his gaze as he studies them. Is he serious, or just mocking him?*
Stars: Charmed. Can we get moving? We've already wasted a lot of the nigh--ahk! *half drops half shoves Kage when the bot comes awake fighting*
Kage: *settled almost immediately, softly apologizing to Stars*
Stars: It's fine. Kagerou, meet our new friend, Sandstorm.
Kage: ?? *looks at the dragon, then Deckard*

	Deckard: nods reassurance I'm afraid we started off on a bad foot, but yes. to Stars Actually, we might be best keeping our heads down for the day /here/, since we do have this shelter. Besides - turning to Sand - we'll need to take some time to gather enough orbs to help sustain you along with the rest of us. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

*the orbs all start the size of a dinner plate to a human, but grow to whatever size best fits the consumer. They will still need more orbs, though*
Sand: ....The night is young yet. *they've only lost a few hours*
Stars: *wings flick and he glowers around at the /cave/....but it /is/ bigger than their shelter* No, resting through the next day might be good. *will move to take Dream back from Deckard*

Sand: .....There is a soft place to rest back here if you want. *still sounds mildly wary, are they uo to something or genuine? He...he thinks the latter, but it's so.../opposite/ of what he's experienced for eons that he's not sure. He /wants/ it to be genuine...*
Stars: *looks where Sand nodded and will go lay Dream down* Why has 't she woken up yet?
Sand: The fluid. She'll wake in an hour or two, she's sleeping longer because you moved her.
Stars: What /is/ that slag anyway?
Sand: It's called sleep sap, though it doesn't come from trees.
