Drago knew that his presence wasn’t wanted here as Giselle instinctively moved to be more in Drago’s way to do any arm to the babe within his den. Golden hues shifted from his son to his pet, deciding to not make a nasty little comment. Drago also makes note that Giselle struggles to hold back the fear she knew that the male could taste within the air. How she gripped her dress ‘til skin whitened gave the Captain the desire to laugh and toss out abusive words, but he doesn’t. For the sake of his son, he doesn’t. “Mm.” The crow chuffed as feathers hidden within his hair fluffed as the baby managed to start suckling and gumming at a rough digit of his. Suddenly, Drago had pulled himself away from the pair, turning around where he sat as large wings made themselves known and moved forward to act as a protective safe place for the elder. “I am sorry, Oriella.” He mused quietly. And no, he wasn’t having one of his episodes. Drago, in this moment, is well grounded and sane. Feathers ruffled as Giselle’s master looked over his shoulder. “He won’t have to worry about a damn thing soon. I’ll make a safe place. For you. For him. For my daughter…”
A lowly growl rumbles within his chest as he decides to bit down upon the finger Alexander had within his mouth. Dark ichor is drawn and is given for Alexander to feed once the male turned back around. This is Drago’s true acceptance.
Could one blame her? Drago's mood swings were unpredictable. One day, she could go peacefully and then find herself in the eye of the storm. Reddish eyes watched their interaction, a part of her was filled with concern and worry but when Dragon pulled his finger away, Giselle blinked as the babe wiggled his arms around, somewhat fussing. Glancing over her shoulders, the pet wondered if he was in a good mood, a soft thrilling sort of melody was given to settle the babe. ❝ There, there. ❞ The ruffling of wings caused furred ears to flicker a bit. Her name was spoken. Not her own name but Oriella. Was it petty for Drago? No. Somehow, she realizes no one really stayed around the Captain during his good and bad times. Some minds call the coati deranged as the crow but a deep breath is taken, and Giselle relaxes suddenly. All the fear dissipates. She promised, after all, she would stay. ❝ It's alright, dear. I'm sorry for being so tense, you startled me. ❞ Giselle knew it was her maternal instincts kicking that also made her on high alert. His words rang within her ears. Curious piqued but she opted not to pry too much, finding his words rather touch. The so-called feelings for the unwell captain seem to bubble forth. A sincere change? What sparkled it? ❝ Really? ❞ she said with a strange sound. Happiness? Relief. ❝ Then I will make sure the safe place you create is filled with comfort and warmth. I will make sure the hearth is taken care of, ❞ Giselle said. Not foolishly. Rather any naive demeanor had been melted away. In time, Nadir seemed to take her under her wing despite what Drago said. Rather, she saw some sort of importance in the nymph to Drago. Not wanting another mishap, the other trained her. It was difficult at first with everything else; however, she seemed to prevail. She followed the Queen about as her lady-in-waiting learned many things. To be lady-like and elegant, respectful and poise. Sometimes her old behavior relapses but something seems to sparkle within her. ❝ Whatever guidance or instructions you have to help achieve, please let me know. I wish to cause trouble or woes, dearest. Or be in the way. ❞ But the low growl hits her ears, causing her eyes to widen. She makes note of the ichor exchanged which Alexander happily feeds from. A feisty feeder he is. Giselle nearly has the wind walked out of her. Did he? Restrained as Nadir told her.
