Nym let himself lean into Ky, each touch from the other dragon sending a mild sensation of pins and needles through him, starting with his shoulders and shooting down. He hadn't realized that he'd been that tense. But Ky began working at him, slowly loosening all his muscles, he truly did begin to relax, and he closed his eyes to listen to Ky talk. He nodded along with each comment. When he was a bit younger, and perhaps a little more naive, Nym had used to dream about those now seemingly fabled days.. Times when dragons were renowned scholars, and regularly welcomed into royal courts and into villages. When humans, dragons, and other creatures alike had all seen eye to eye, and had all been considered equal. It hardly seemed possible that things could be that way again. In fact it seemed foolish to even hope, but Nym's heart panged for it anyway. Hearing about Ky, and how he'd grown up with his own kind. The old dragon, Ivy... Nym loved Addie and Sean, that was for certain, but part of him was always somewhat disturbed at how he'd been raised so unnaturally. He hadn't even seen one glimpse of his siblings or his parents. This facility was the first time he'd been given something to actually ease the longing he felt for the company of others like him.
"I'm not perfect." Nym laughed, somewhat somberly. "I don't know know anything about being a proper dragon really..." He tilted his head back to try and look at Ky, though it was kind of impossible with his ever present horns in the way. "I wish we'd met somewhere that wasn't... Here." Nym motioned at the door. He wished that he'd met Ky somewhere that was open, and free, that this whole thing had happened slow and quietly, like it should have. That he hadn't been shot of up with that awful hormone that had made him act so ludicrously... He wished he could still have all this but, different. "I wish our kits were going to be born somewhere... Safer." Not that Avalon wasn't technically safe, and if they were given homes similar to his, he supposed that they wouldn't be raised in any sort of horrible fashion, but Nym still had the foolish hope that'd he'd get to raise the little dragons somehow. Even though that was absurd. "I guess, though-" Nym started again afer a moment, forcing himself to push his melancholy thoughts away. "I guess I'm grateful though. That I got sent here. That we were sort of... Forced together." He smiled. "I suppose it's one thing Avalon is good for, because you're wonderful." He reached up to grab onto one Ky's arms again, up to his shoulder and into the forest dragon's ginger hair again with Ky's chin his chin tucked over his shoulder. "And I really love you too."

"What?" Demus snickered, he'd barely heard Lago's question. They were both a rather a mess at this point, but the prairie dragon didn't exactly care. "I dunno, who's counting? C'mere...." Demus leaned in to give Lago a rather sloppy kiss to the cheek. When the swamp dragon mentioned him still being... Aroused, he just laughed again. "Hey, I was stuck inside inside a little white box with nothing to talk to but the camera on the ceiling, can you blame me?" Demus reached to cup both hands around Lago's face. "I missed you... And I remember you saying a little something about how you loved me, you know, while all that shit was going down by the lake...." Demus was making light of it, when really he'd thought about those words that Lago had shouted at him the entire time he'd been cooped up. He'd replayed it over and over until hadn't been able to stand it. But now that he was here, it wasn't painful to recall, but rather elating. "Well, I love you too... And by damn if I'm not going to show you that I do. Now c'mere and maybe we'll both be tired enough to actually fall asleep after we're done this time." He wrinkled his nose up a bit as he smiled at Lago.
Not more than a little while later, Demus was flopped next to Lago, thoroughly exhausted, and strangely enough, laughing. The last part of their "alone time" had really turned into a somewhat risqué tickle fight more than anything. It was maybe a tad childish, but Demus couldn't care less. He was eating up every moment he'd with Lago that night... Though admittedly he was pretty beat at this point.
"I think... I need water." Demus darted a glance to Lago and then suddenly kissed him on the forearm. He apparently wasn't going to be able to control his flirtiness, no matter how tired they both were. He was on a high, a high wich was purely the company of his mate. "I can bring some for you if you want? In... A leaf, or some shit. I dunno." He grinned.

"Sorry kiddo, the facility locked up like two hours ago."
"What? Come on, I'm Addison Fiske! My father owns one of the most expensive dragons in this place!" Addie was in the middle of her third retort with the woman who was keeping the gate. Staring up at her with blazing amber eyes while the woman stared back with her steely grey ones. It was apparent that this guard wasn't going to let her through, and she really had no idea how much Nym was worth, but she was desperate to make up and try anything now. "He'll be angry if he finds out that you didn't let me in." She huffed.
"Doesn't change the fact that the gate locks down after eight..." The guard said flatly. "We open back up at seven a.m. sharp.... Come back, then?"
"Ugh, for the love of god." Addie moaned. "Fine.... Seven a.m., you better have this damn gate open for me... I have an annoying brother to avoid until then."
"What was that?" The woman quirked an eyebrow at Addie.
"Nothing, I said I'll be here bright and early tomorrow, ma'am." Addie quickly nodded. "Have a good night." With that she rolled her window up and reversed the car in search of some place to park. She hoped her phone lasted until morning. It was going to be a long night if she had nothing to do but stare at the ceiling of the Lexus the whole time. Maybe if she was bigger, or older, more intimidating, they would have just let her in... Obscenely important or menacing people seemed to always get what they wanted.
