“Silly dragon, balls are for dancing, not talking!” His smile turned more into a frown and before he could say anything she had moved on to see one of her newest friends. Though, Sulley thought it was more f her next emotional meal than anything else. A slight grin appeared on his face with the faintest set of hungry looking eyes.
'Your such a tease...' He turned his attention back to Laurel and... Her mother?
He sighed as his posture and face became more stoic with his head cocked slightly to the side.
"A little early to introduce parents don't you think?" A twitch in the mouth. "
Suleykaar, this is my mother Nadia. Mother, this is my acquaintance Suleykaar. He is friends with my roommate Kiara of the Unseelie Court."
"Friends? A bit of a rush to call us friends.""Suls, from the way you two were interacting I wouldn't be opposed to the idea that you like her. Suley shot him a glare before looking away.
"Preposterous. She is nothing but a mere toy for me to play with." Anders smirked before drawing his attention back to Laurel and her mother.
".......You do." A light growl and a smoky snort came from Suley.
I do apologize for the digression. As stated I am Suleykaar and this here is my dear friend Anders." Anders gave an almost graceful bow before standing back up, his hand on the but his sword's hilt. It wasn't in a menacing manner but rather a gesture out of habit. It was comfortable.
"I see m'lady that beauty runs in the family. I would have expected nothing less." Suley rolled his eyes.
"
What do we have here? A dragon and a human who smells of dragon. An armed human. Do tell young dragon, what use is an armed human to you?"
Anders spoke up before Suleykaar could answer. Instead Nadia's comment left Suley with a bad taste in his mouth.
'Smells of dragon? So this is the path you wish to walk, Gifted? So be it.' Suley looked over at Laurel and saw the pleading eyes at which he responded with the faintest of smiles.
"A friend and brother." If eyes could tell the history someone had with someone else, his word tell a story for the ages. They showed war and experience on the battlefield, they showed the loses he suffered and the painful hardships he dealt with. But more importantly, they showed the defensive side of Anders. His voice though only complemented what his eyes told.
Suley looked over at Anders with a smile before looking back at Laurel's mother, a snort of smoke escaping his nostrils.
"If you were looking for a more in-depth answer you will not hear it. That is something between me and Anders and if you are displeased with said answer-"He pointed over towards the door were the beginning of the hors d'oeuvres table.
"There is a suggestion box by the door should you need to voice your complaints. Come Anders, I've been wanting to try this one thing called pizza." Him and Anders had begun to walk away until Suley had gotten this gleem in his eyes to which Anders took quick notice and sighed.
' Forgive me Laurel but I will NOT be spoken to like this.""The funny thing is though, gifted-" A bit of venom was added in with gifted. His tone seemed to have shifted into what could be described as cockiness but for Suley it was more of a challenge towards Nadia as he turned to face the three of them.
"the smell of human isn't any better and considering that the gifted-" Waving an open palm towards Nadia in a gesturing manner.
"such as yourself are nothing more than glorified humans with magical capabilities, you carry this appalling scent that is just as pungent if not more so than any human thanks to that gifted side of you. It draws in this air that is a bit revolting but I guess that comes with the title, hm?" He contorted his face to that of a mild disgust as he sniffed the air.
