What Ensues
"So, let me get this straight," Rei started. "Dranzer and Driger like each other?"
Draciel nodded.
"Define 'like'."
Silence. For about thirty seconds.
"Like! Try two-sided 'unrequited' love. Those two are just far too shy to requit it."
"Nica-"
Griffolyon stopped as the unicorn leveled a glare at him. He wasn't stupid, she was dangerous when she wanted to be. Particularly lacking Amphilyon's presence. Speaking of, where was that damned dragon anyway? Never around when you needed him.
"Actually," the unicorn continued after the griffen wandered off, "those two have been pretty well smitten with each other since what seems like forever."
The bladers looked pretty skeptic, but the other female bit beasts were all nodding, so it was probably true. But Oliver seemed slightly puzzled.
"If there was a phoenix/tiger cross, what would it look like?"
"Something like that's proper form," Unicolyon answered with a wave indicative of Grifflolyon's general direction.
Somehow, that seemed the obvious answer, now that it had been said.
"So," Mariah started, "anything we can do about Dranzer and Driger?"
"Ya know, we've tried jus' about everything we can think of," Galux intoned, "and they're still seperate."
Emily gave them a sideways glance, "do we even want to know how long you've been trying?"
"Oh, few centuries or so," the answer came from an unexpected angle.
"Salamalyon?"
"Yes?"
Brown eyes glared his direction. The salamander remained unfazed.
"How do you know?" Max finally asked.
"Because I do."
Galux sighed, "sometimes we need someone other than Dizzi to give Dranzer a push in the right direction."
"Yeah, but him?" Kai didn't sound terribly pleased.
"She's... friendly with him," was the only reply.
"Yes, and if she didn't like that bloody tiger so much it might be worth something," Sal muttered.
"What was that?" Kenny looked confused.
The females grinned at each other.
"Salamalyon's got a crush on Dranzer," they chorused.
"I do not!"
"Do too." Nica answered back.
"Who asked you anyway?"
"No one."
"Why you-"
"Salamalyon!"
The salamander in question flinched.
"We'll finish this later damn you."
The unicorn grinned as he left.
"You know, one of these days Griffolyon's going to fillet you Sal," she yelled after him.
"He's gotta catch me first."
The aforementioned griffon bolted past after the salamander.
"When I get my hands on you!"
A pair of dark eyes peered around Unicolyon.
"And ya know what? It wasn't even Sal."
The dragon and the unicorn laughed.
"You're terrible Amphilyon."
"I know."
