Eclipse sighed with mock exasperation as one of his few other friends in the palace landed on the ground next to him, [color=ed1c24][b]"And here I was hoping I wouldn't have to interact with anyone else today," [/b][/color] he flicked Skua with the tip of his tail in a friendly manner; puffing his chest out and pitching his voice up to more closely match that of his aunt, [color=ed1c24][b]"You've gotten in the way of my haughty gaze over the commoners."[/b][/color] He and Ash chuckled as he let his chest fall. Ash turned towards Skua with a matching teasing smile on his face.

[color=f26522][b]"Rather shocking isn't it. I expected him to stay up and out of the way the entirety of the festival,"[/b][/color] he turned the toothy grin on Eclipse, [color=f26522][b]"and that would be a tragedy."[/b][/color] Eclipse simply rolled his eyes, legitimately sighing this time. He looked towards the sky as if silently asking it why he decided to put up with these ridiculous dragons that he called friends. He might act as if they annoyed him but he really didn't know what he would do if they didn't take the time to hang out. He'd probably go crazy trapped in the palace with all of the other high and mighty royal types. They could be insufferable with all the gossip and posturing they did, he just couldn't understand it.

He glanced back down, [color=ed1c24][b]"Well I don't know about the rest of you but I'm starving,"[/b][/color] he grinned towards Sunrise, the smallest out of the whole group, [color=ed1c24][b]"Great skies knows you could use more meat on your bones."[/b][/color] He leapt sideways ducking behind Skua as she swiped a claw at him, [color=ed1c24][b]"She's a menace I tell you, trying to attack someone in broad daylight,"[/b][/color] he added a wounded tone to his voice as Sunrise barred her teeth at him, which from any other dragon would probably be intimidating, but from her it just looked kind of cute. Ash took a step forward and patted her gently on the head in a way that seemed both placating and degrading at the same time; which earned him his second thwack from her tail of the day. At this rate there would be a new record.
 
Eclipse slipped around his friend, wrapping one wing around him in an actual greeting, and started heading in the direction of the food stalls, still keeping a fair distance from Sunrise in case she kept trying for her revenge. As the other two prepared to follow, chatting with each other over what kind of food they wanted to get, he looked towards his blue-scaled friend, [color=ed1c24][b]"Find anything fun to do at this festival, or have you been too busy gossiping with the other soldiers?"[/b][/color] he asked with a good natured smile in Skua's direction.
