[ Despite how nerve-racking the thought of addressing all Moonblessed is to Kougyoku, she pushes forward with her plan to post on the network. This is important, after all. A dragon's basic needs are at stake! So the feed opens to a simple yet elegant room, a young woman in regal robes at the center of it. ]

Good evening, I am Kougyoku Ren. I am a new arrival and I'm not familiar with this technology at all, so I thought it would be best to use the clairvoyance function on this... phone. [ A beat. ] No, I'm sure they called it something else... [ PEEKS AT HER NOTES ] Video! Yes. That aside, I have a few questions regarding these dragons in our care.

Firstly, what do your dragons eat? I have been feeding mine fruit and he seems to like it very much, but I am worried if some foods are poisonous to him.

Next, how large have your dragons grown? Mine is— [peeking over her shoulder as it chews on her long red locks. Its features are aquatic in nature, what with the fins for ears and the jewel on its forehead. It also has a beauty mark under its left eye.] —the size of a large dog and I am curious if it can grow any bigger. Will it still fit on my bed?

Finally, what did you name yours? I can't decide on a name for mine. Whoever can think of a good one gets a small prize of their choosing! ... I haven't decided on the prize yet, but there will be a prize!

If you have any answers, please don't hesitate to contact me. Thank you! That is all!

[ The princess holds her position for a moment, fiddles with the buttons, and... ]

Phew! [ The dragon stops chewing and scampers off as Kougyoku slumps against her chair and places a hand over her chest. ] Oh, I can still feel my heart pounding... I hope people will reply. How does Kouen do it?

[ Hopefully, people will be honest about their answers too! She's excited to learn more about caring for her dragon. Someone should tell her the camera's still rolling, though. ]

is actually just there.

[ he just walks in without knocking ]

It's me!
And I brought a great deal of crab curry!
And apricots!
And I have thought of a wonderful name. Margon!!







[ or, alternately, if the door was locked, none of this tag happens and he just loudly rattles the doorknob and bangs on the door from outside ]

[redsea]

[The door was absolutely not locked, but in her defense, the likes of Ka Koubun in usually knock before entering a lady's chamber! Titus! She jolts up in her seat, twirling around to meet the young man from Reim.]

You! [She points at him dramatically.] Haven't you heard of knocking? That could get you killed, you know! Probably! Why do I get the feeling that name was hastily slapped together?

[But then the smell of food wafts into the room, and Kougyoku is way too easy to distract with food.]

... Crab curry?

[wearingguess]

Yes, I have heard of it. [ not really sure why you're bringing it up though??? ]

If you are dissatisfied with Margon, I also like Drarga, Marga Two, Marga Junior, and any number of other possibilities... The choice is yours!

[ as he speaks, he sets all his shit down and starts serving up enormous portions of the truly incredible amount of delicious curry he's brought. takeout, baybeeee! ]

[redsea]

[Dammit, Titus!! She sighs in exasperation.]

Marga, Marga, just who is this Marga? Your girlfriend?

[Her sleeves are too long, so she pulls them out of the way to dip her finger in the sauce and get a taste. That's some really good curry! But uh, maybe it isn't for her? She pulls her hand away before he can comment.]

[wearingguess]

Marga is family! I think she is probably like a sister. She is very kind, wise, and mature! And soon she will turn six.

[ it looks like she decided which dish she wanted, so he shoves that one a bit closer to her. but he's surprised she doesn't want a spoon or anything. the kou empire sure has some unique customs! ]

...I suppose the baby won't want a spoon, either... Do you suppose he would rather eat on the floor, or at the table? ...Should we crack the legs for him? Darling, what do you think?

[ that last bit was addressed to the dragon! ]

1/2

[redsea]

[ As he mentions Marga's age, Kougyoku hums in acknowledgement. Like family, so they aren't family. Then she must be a friend. Those are difficult to make no matter how old they are... But Titus doesn't seem to have any problems with that, no? ]

Well, we ought to help the baby any way we ca—

[redsea]

Who are you calling darling!? A-and don't talk about him like that!

[ A beat. ]

Of course I want a spoon!

[ Her hands demand one from him, in fact. ]

[wearingguess]

Who do you think?... and don't talk about him like what?

[ lmao he didn't fucking ask if YOU wanted a spoon, did he.
but here, you can have one. he's magnanimous like that!! ]

Sweetheart, are you hu~ngry?

[ now, this time, he's talking to kougyoku.
