Emery ignored her completely as she had him almost all day. He simply bowed to Ella as she started going on about him getting her hopes up about something, he wasn’t really listening to what she was saying. Instead he went about one of the normal parts of tonight he was supposed to play, which was making what was supposed to happen, look like it did. Though it was a bit hard to remember what he was supposed to be doing with Ella asking him so many questions to pretend he didn’t hear. When he dropped blood on the ground around her, Emery couldn’t help but smile at Ella’s words about tricking the dragon. Really though who would try to trick a dragon? The idea that someone would be stupid enough to even try was laughable. She wasn’t asking for his help or unblocking him yet either, so in his mind it was perfectly fair not to answer her. When the priestess yelled at him as he walked back towards her with the key, Emery closed his eyes for a moment letting out a slow breath, before he came up behind her. Fingers softly rubbing against Ella’s neck in the spot Ivan used to knock her before pressing his nose against it to smell for a wound. Only for a wide smile to spread on his lips as Ella asked him not to touch her, it was adorable for her to say please, even though she was uncomfortable with Emery’s closeness and touching her. Pulling away from her, he moved to the lock smile being forced from his face, putting the key in but not unlocking it. After he had awhile to actually talk to the priestess before they had to leave and it would be fun to play with Ella a little, talking from his mouth instead of in her head. The reaction to his words was….priceless. From her backing up after he growled and her to the look on her face. Surprise, confusion, and lastly disbelief because here he knew things, only things the dragon should know, and he was clearly a human in her point of view. He added the words about being rushed to make his pick earlier. When Ella whispered his name the wide smile reappeared on his face. [b]“Yes Ella?”[/b] He replied his tone both happy and amused by her disbelief of what he was. Why was the idea that he could become human as well? Like having a dragon speaking to you through her mind could have been the strangest thing she had heard of. [b]“You humans have such a little imaginations my young priestess. It really is one of the sad problems with your race.”[/b] The dragon commented frowning up at her as she glanced up to the skies looking for him. Though with her never getting to leave, it probably was the strangest she had ever heard of. Did Ella even think it was strange that her family was the only ones? [b]“I’ve never flew where you could see me, Ella. And even if I were to, the color of my scales wouldn’t let you see me in the night.”[/b] He pointed out to her. [i]“Emery, I-I’m sorry I freaked out but some crazy person is here, please help.”[/i] Emery let out a soft laugh at Ella, finding it funny that she thought he was crazy now but not before in the confession when he told her a different story. The story from the dragons point of view instead of the humans that she was raised to believe. Then he was interesting and she wanted to go to his village with him to tell the story how she was taught. Even do some of the rituals there for the day. However only now that he claimed to be the actual dragon, he was some crazy person? [i]“I won’t fight you when you show up I promise.”[/i] [b]“Ah! See that…..was what I was waiting for you to say.”[/b] Emery spoke up loudly and cheerfully as he looked back down at the lock and turning the key so that the chain came loose from the ground. [i]“Truly Ella I would have thought that you would think I was crazier when I told you the side of the story I was told.”[/i] Emery started talking through their connection. [b]“Though I guess that was more believable than the fact I have more than one form?”[/b] He finished through his lips as he stood to where he no longer had to look up to look at her. His eyes washed over the dress she was wearing slowly before he took a quick step towards her, hand laying softly on her face. Not even thinking of the fact she asked him not to touch her a few moments ago, boundary issues were not something he was used to having been alone for his whole life. [b]“That dress looks beautiful on you.”[/b] He said softly before digging into the pocket of his pants for something he had gotten from the offering place. [b]“It is missing something though.”[/b] He added thoughtfully before pulling something out and holding it to the light of the fire for a moment to make sure it was the right thing before giving it to Ella. After all part of mating he was taught was counting and giving gifts.
