[Steven resists the call for some time, worried about his own safety-- but in the end, his curiosity and desire overwhelm him. He beams down just in time to feel a blast of energy, strong enough to knock him back. By the time he picks himself up, there's something moving in the trees. It's big, clearly, he can hear that well enough-- and so he prudently steps behind a tree as it comes past. Quite possibly it will see his gem glowing a searingly bright pink anyway, but at least he's trying to hide.

A dragon.

Steven gasps softly, his eyes going wide, and wonders if it's good or bad. He hopes it doesn't ask him riddles. He's not really good at riddles. Puns, though, those he can do pretty well. Maybe it's a pun dragon.]

[it is not--perhaps fortunately for everyone--a pun dragon. it is, however, a dragon very finely tuned into the currents of magic and energy in its surroundings... and a gleaming gem is going to catch its attention sooner or later.

it maybe doesn't realize that it is attached to a person just yet, as it stalks through the forest on the hunt for it. being somewhere around twenty or thirty feet tall, its sometimes hard to notice those details in the underbrush.]

[realhumanbeing]

[He backs away quickly, quite sensibly intimidated by the large beast picking its way toward him. It doesn't look like it's going to eat him, but better to keep his distance until he's certain.]

Hello? Hello! Hi! Please don't eat me!

[heresyandlace]

[oh, well... now he's sure that someone is there. and so, annoyed, he seethes out a sharp snarl in the direction of the voice.

show yourself, little creature.]

[realhumanbeing]

[That snarl doesn't sound friendly at all-- and so he just peers his head out, eyes wide.]

Hi.

[heresyandlace]

[...oh.

of all the things that he'd been expecting to see, this is not one of them.

and while he very much feels like lashing out and scaring off all intruders, the fact that this weird little kid is the one giving off that incredible gleam overrides it a little bit.

the dragon is still rolling an annoyed rumble around in its chest, but his face begins to swing down closer, to get a better look.]

[realhumanbeing]

[He grins, terribly pleased the dragon is being so friendly, and waves up at him. His gem gleams, sending out pulses of bright pink light as the dragon comes closer.]

Hi! Are you the only dragon around here? You're the first I've seen! I've never met a dragon before, though.

[heresyandlace]

['friendly.' right.

well, the friendly dragon doesn't answer, really. instead, he picks up one massive paw and brings it close-- pointing a several-foot-long talon directly at that gem.

and he gives another knotted growl, either threatening or demanding.]

[realhumanbeing]

[He flinches, but doesn't pull away.]

It's my gem! It lets me do magic.
