(sure thing)

Nyx smiled, and closed her eyes, for a moment. Happy, and content.

Hermia watched Veax with a worried look, trying to figure out what could be wrong. She finally sighed, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Tran leaned towards Orna, and said softly, only so she could hear, "We'll be home soon" before leaning back, looking around at the others gathered around the table for food, company, and just a good time.

"Cooking?" Sasha said, "I think cooking can be a male and female art. Simply because...Well. It's about providing, isn't it"

Kos thought about it. "I suppose it is, although it is stereotypically female." He replied.

"The stereotypes are wrong, if you ask me" Larek said, having listened in.

"Heh. No one asked you" Kos replied.

Larek turned back to Nyx, nuzzling her a bit.

Vaex let out a sigh. "It's nothing. I can wait until later to explain it" he told Hermia, privately.

Orna smiled. "Yeah. It's a good thing too. It's been too long since we... well, you know." She looked around the room, seeing her brothers, including Veax. "Hmm. Looks like Veax is just as 'excited' as I am. Hermia's going to have to handle that, I suppose. Heheh."

"If a male lived by themselves, would it be considered stereotypically female" Nyx said in amusement, "Oddly enough, the humans don't think like that. Male orfemale, whoever cooks the best" She shrugged, laughed softly, "But then, maybe I'm biased, considering the adventuring field is stereotypically male"

Sasha would be forever impressed by Nyx. Most of the time, she just said what was on her mind. Sasha herself was too quite for that. "Sometimes the stereotypes are confining"

Hermia frowned, but nodded, deciding to be content with that. "Alright then"

Tran nodded, smiled, "Let's forget about our siblings, since I want you" he laughed, not enough to draw attention their way, "you've always fascinated me, right fom the moment we met"

"Well, I suppose a male on his own would have to cook, but who wants to live alone?" Larek replied. "But I see your point. It's best not to be biased like that, I guess."

Kos nodded at what Sasha had said. "That's true, I guess. It's good if you're male, but if I were in my mother's place, I would have wanted to be male" he told her, remembering how unfortunate she had been.

Veax gave Hermia a hug, unintentionally pressing against his malehood. "Oh. Well, I think you've just felt what I... yeah. Sorry!"

Orna gave Tran a dirty smile. "Then how about we go somewhere private?" she asked.

Nyx shrugged. seemed to muse for a moment. "Bias's and stereotypes will always be around. I guess its just important to not get stuck in them"

Sasha thought on that for a few moments, before saying, "In the same situation, I think being Male, it would have been a lot worse. Purely because of stereotypes and the image that males should always be strong"

Hermia returned the hug, and said "Why should you be sorry?"

Tran chuckled with amusement, "Just sneak away from the gathering? Someone is bound to notice. But I'm in"

"Agreed. I never saw why people think that way" Larek replied.

Kos rolled his eyes at that statement. His brother was into that sort of social stuff. Not so much for Kos. He replied to Sasha. "Well, I think males should be strong. How else are we going to keep our homes and families safe?"

"Well, I don't mean to embarrass you, or make us look bad" Veax replied nervously.

Orna smiled back "Oh, they'll notice we're missing, but I think they know what we'll be up to." She swiveled her hips suggestively, adding a wink.

"I guess it makes people feel secure and...content" Nyx said, "Maybe we will never know why they think like that"

Sasha nodded, "I know. I think so too, but my point was if the same thing had happened if your other was male, I think it would have been worse because of that" she said, trying to explain what she meant

"You could never embarrass me Vaex. I love you" Hermia said softly, sweetly, "and make us look back? this is family" She said, waving a hand around them, "I'm pretty sure they know we mate"

Tran laughed, "No doubt" He hugged her, "Shall we?"

(I saw your characters thread. Need pictures of dracons?)

"Probably to make themselves feel bigger by making others feel smaller" Larek agreed.

"My other was male? What do you mean?" Kos asked.

Vaex thought about it. "Well, I suppose we should... er... do something about it out of their sight?" he suggested (not in thread of course!)

Orna took Tran's hand. "Let's head out to the fields and see where we can do it! Maybe in a barn or something?" she kept her voice down, but it was loud enough for him to get her emphasis.

(I haven't put all my characters up yet, but sure, I could use some! I'm actually going to do a proper character sheet for all of them the next few days. I think I messed up in my last post...or rather, my keyboard did. "If your mother was male"* if you want to reply to that instead lol)

Nyx nodded, "again, maybe we will never know why. So best not ot dwell on it" She said, stretching slightly.

"Probably be a good idea" Hermia said with a smile

Tran nodded, giving Orna's hand a queeze, "Alright, lets" He said, "If there aren't any animals in the barn sure"

(I'll have some pictures of dracons up in a few days, but you can use these as ideas for now:

A male
A female

As for the couples, well, I have something funny in mind. We may have to go to PM for parts of this, of course.)

"Did you mean 'if my mother was male' " Kos asked. "I suppose if my mother were my father and if he was the poor one and my mother was the richer of the two, things would be different." He replied, still somewhat confused.

Larek nodded. "You look tired, my love. Should we stay at the party, or use the gate stone to go home? We can say our goodbyes first, of course.)

Veax smiled. "I think there's an empty barn we can use" he took her outside, eager for some relief.

Orna and Tran arrived at the barn. She led him to the upper level, trying to maintain some privacy. At least there were no farm animals around. "Ahh... alone at last. Been waiting for this all day. Gonna feel so good..." she sighed.

(Shall we move to pm now for them, then? Would be easier and best to do so, with the pg 13 rating)

"Probably best not to dwell on some things" sasha said after a moment, deciding that that was easier then actually figure out what she had meant. "Especially those we cannot change"

Nyx was tired. She rarely liked to complain about it, but was glad that Larek had given her an opportunity to say for them to go home. While she would like to stay a bit longer, she was getting towards being cranky. She was still getting use to such large social situations, and all the people. While she had gotten over that phobia, it still made her a bit edgy. "Let's start to head home" she said

(Sure. I will PM you. We can pick up Larek/Nyx and Kos/Sasha later, although I will reply to you below.)

"Indeed, We can't change every-." Kos was about to say something more, but he let out a loud burp. It had been a good meal.

"Er... excuse me".

"Heh. Good one, son!"

"Adykon!" Aerta replied, half-joking, half-serious about her stepson's minor breach of manners.

"Alright, let's say our goodbyes, Nyx" Larek told her, starting to head over to Avera's family first, to thank them for the invitation.

Some time later... Larek and Nyx were back on their farm, as were the other couples. Kos and Sasha were still expecting an egg, while Veax and Hermia were back to their usual life. When he arrived back at the farm, Veax had heard something odd, but it was just a lizard that had gotten into the farmstead. He let it out, leaving it unharmed. Orna and Tran were back to usual as well. Caex was still with his wife and son, and Adykon was still busy with his farm and family, though he left it to deal with other business several times a year, and this one was no different.

Nyx had enjoyed the time with her family, and Lareks, but was glad to be home. It had become home quite quickly, but anywhere would have become home with Larek, she knew. She rose early, a habit she would most likely never break, and checked on the egg. Upon waking, Hermia rose, and set about making breakfast. Given that she enjoyed cooking, and was good at it, none of her meals were ever ordinary, something she took pride in. And she was relaxed, and happy, she smiled, thinking that everything was perfect. Tran had the farm running well, and was pleased at that. still, ,he had to check the crops in the morning, and feed what livestock they had, before breakfast, but it was something he enjoyed doing, so he didn't really mind much even if it took him away from Orna in the morning. In bed, Sasha was relaxed, warm and comfortable, and while she was reluctant to get up, she did so stretching and starting to set about the day

Larek followed Nyx down to check on the egg. It had been a while since she had laid it, and hatching was expected in a month or so. Six weeks at the latest. Veax helped set the table, making sure everything was ready for breakfast. He had been more relaxed than normal lately, now that things were more quiet. Orna rose and got breakfast ready, but she felt a bit out of it today. She had rested quite a bit, but something felt off. Like she was... gravid? She hoped so. Orna suspected it, but didn't want to tell Tran yet, not to get his hopes up without enough proof. Kos was already out in the fields, getting an early start to the day's farming. Back at Larek's farm, a note teleported into the house. This was not unheard of, but it was unusual. Thinking it was from his mother, he opened it. It wasn't. Instead, this was a note from Tala, his aunt. As Aerta's sister, Tala had been expected to have some magical power, but when she was found to have none, she enrolled in a magical college to learn it. Unlike her sorceress sister, Tala was a wizard. In her case, she had less power than Aerta, but Tala was still a capable mage nonetheless. "Huh. My aunt wants to know if we'd like to join her on a trip" Larek told Nyx.

Nux looked up as the letter appeared and Larek read it, as she finished off breakfast, moving the plates to the table. The egg was within her sight, and she looked at it from time to time, unable to stop herself from doing so, just curiosity, wondering what their child would be like. "What kind of trip?" She asked, curious "and how long would it take?" Hermia smiled at veax, appreciating the help, and brought the food to the table. Sue liked the fact thaot he seemed mre at ease, feeling that it just made everything better. Briefly her thoughts went to the family gathering, where he had said that maybe they could start a family. While she would love to have children close to her siblings, she didn't want to pressure Veax. tran returned to the house, cleaning his feet and hands just outside the door, and changing clothes so as not to drag dirt in the house, quickly finding Orna. "Is something wrong?" He asked, concerned, as she didn't seem like her normal self. sasha made breaofast, setting it out ready for when Kos returned from the field, tidying up as she went along, figuring it made it easier, before sitting down, and letting jerself relX, which was never an easy feat for her, but she had been trying knowing itnwas betterfor the egg

"She didn't give details, but says she will discuss those with us in person if we are interested" Larek replied. He took out a pen and wrote. "We are interested, please tell us more." Not long afterwards, the letter disappeared again. A minute later, there was another teleportation, and a pink-skinned female dressed in a red loincloth and top appeared in the living room. It was Tala. "Glad to see you are interested, Larek. Any Nyx, you look lovely as usual. Sorry to teleport in so suddenly." Veax finished setting the table, and he went to his wife. "So, what are we having to eat, my love?" Orna looked at Tran. "Oh, it's nothing. I'm good. Did you clean your claws?" She looked down. "Oh, good. You did. Now I... er... oh, I'm a terrible liar, aren't I? Well, I suspect I might be gravid, but there's no real proof yet. I feel a bit off, like something's in me. It's not easy to say just what it feels like. I guess you'd have to experience it yourself. Sorta." She shifted from foot to foot, a bit uneasy. Kos got back from the farm, able to take a break for a while. "So, how are you feeling, dear?"

This method of communication didn't really surprise Nyx, and on the off chance that Lareks aunt wanted something go eat, she grabbed another plate. "Its no bother" she said in response to the zpology, "we were just going to have breakfast, if you wanted to join us. We can talk over the food" she smiled tran let Orna ramble on, when she seemed to run herself out, he went to her, and embraded her, "would you like to go make certain, my love?" He asked sasha rose when Kos returned, and smiled "I feel good" she said, "perfectly fine. Is everything alright on the farm?" "Just breakfast stuff" hermia said brightly, "theres bread and fruit, as weol as meat, but its a new dish I wanted to try"

"Why, sure. I'd like that. Thank you" She took a seat. "So, this trip I had in mind. There are some ruins I found in the desert. They've been raided before, but I think some parts are still open. Might find some treasure, maybe not. I know you two are adventurers as well as farmers, and I could use some backup. You still have that sword, Larek?" "Of course. I try to keep in practice. Nyx can fight well enough too, but I'll let her speak for herself." Orna returned the hug. "Well, I suppose... yes. Yes, we should get it checked out." "Crops are in the soil, things are well" Kos told her. "I'm gonna have to check on the animals later" she added. Veax smelled the food. "Hmm. Smells different, but I like it. What kind of meat is it?"
