well I can't ask all for Farlo again xD Can I ask all for Peia x Sael?

XD Here goes then, part 1:

❤️ Who is the more romantic one? Do they wish their partner was more romantic?

I'd say neither of them are in your face sappy romantic. Dragons like Sael don't do "romance" the way humans do. Dragons show affection and love through acts of service.

They do have small ways of showing affection, such as Peia picking up on music arrangements that pick more Sael's interest and developing entire medleys around it because he knows it was make Sael happy to ear him make such beautiful music out of what Sael did for him. Or Sael making a new musical instruments or a particularly beautiful and soft brush for Peia.

First time Sael gifted Peia a brush, Peia realized it was very detailed and full of embossed flowers. He actually went to ask Sael why he wasted so much time making such intricate things for him when he cannot see to fully appreciate it, Sael just pragmatically answers "You can feel, can you not? If it is the colour I chose for the embossed flowers in the back of the brush that is concerning you, pray ask and I will more than glad to describe it in great detail."

🍭 What's something they can never agree on (big or small)?

Sael is possessive and protective. Most dragons are. And Peia hates that sometimes Sael treats him like he's made of glass. But to Sael he's just being a good lover, keeping his loved one safe and protected. To Peia he's underestimating him. They often get into fights over that.

Another thing is Sael's sister, Dem'Myr. Peia absolutely adores Dem, they get along like water and wine. Sael will grumble that though wine and water can mix perfectly it's going to turn into shit. Why do the two insist in being friends? It's because of Dem that Sael is represented as a 'pig'.

🧡 Who said 'I love you' first?

Neither.

Dragons don't actually have a word for love, there is the word 'M'ariste' which means that, but they rarely say it. Dragons show they love someone and Sael considers that both he and Peia have both shown devotion for one another. That is enough for him. Brushing of his tail, the small touches, the kisses, the music that Peia plays, the comfort, the laughter, the appreciation for his art. Of course Peia loves him.

As for Peia...

Peia: He has never said he loves me...

Dem being a prickly dick: Oh yeah. Don't bother saying you love him, we don't have that word in our vocabulary. He knows what it means, but he will neither say it or care about the word.

Peia:... -upset-

Dem: Does he give you needlessly intricate gifts despite the fact you're blind? Keeps your safe? Provides for you anything you need? Has shown you and shared with you items from his hoard? Shared knowledge with you? Goes out of his way to make you smile? Brushes his tail against you at every chance he has? Holds your hands and brushes his face against them like a cat? Will literally sniff your hair at every chance he gets? Randomly chirps or purrs when you touch him in a kinda big and intimidating but remarkably cute way?

Peia: Yes?

Dem: Then he loves you. Don't worry about the word. It's not needed to be what it is.

🍫 Who is more likely to steal the other's clothes? What are their favorite items to steal?

Sael. He can't use Peia's clothes, he's twice their size. But he will bloody sleep ontop of one of Peia's shirts or robes. He has also made ribbons and belt accessories out of pieces of Peia's clothes so he can keep 'his presence close'.

Peia has worn one of Sael's robes or two on occasion, but he tries not to otherwise he gets pounced at by a horny dragon. "It's just... he's so tiny, and my clothes are so big and he just looks tiny and adorable in them... Cut a dragon some slack, please! I like pretty things!"

💛 What are their favorite activites to do together?

Make 'music' together. Often Sael will be in his workshop hammering away a blade and Peia will keep him company while playing his harp and more often than not Sael will start hammering away in rhythm to Peia's music. This sometimes results in over-hammered steel by accident.

Dance. Sael loves dancing and often drags Peia to dance with him. This usually ends up in laughter.

And of course the other type of dancing dragons do on occasion.

P: My lord...

S: The correct term is Lorah or Laird. Lord is a human title.

P: Oh.

S: It's alright. I see my gift is to your likeness...

P: I must confess, I don't believe I have ever played a harp that sounded quite like this. It is unique!

S: Of course. The strings are made of dragon hair.

P: Dragon hair? Your hair?

S: Do you see any other dragons around here?

P: So you plucked your own hair to make me a harp.

S: Yes. I do have horse bristles, but I wanted to make you a harp fitting for a god. So I used my own hair for it.

P: Did it hurt?

S: As much as plucking a strand of your own hair I suppose... -brushes his hair- So thin and soft, it would be a sin to pluck something so fair.

P:... -smiles-

[mahvaladara]

POV: You're a Water Spirit minutes away from being 'devoured' by a Dragon God of Volcanoes. He's testing how flexible you are giving you that look. What do you say?

[mahvaladara]

Both: "..."

Sael: "Come here, little spirit."

Peia yelps when they're roughly pulled to Sael's lap.

Sael: "Hmm... You truly are blind. At first I thought you were lying to me. Perhaps... some extra sense allows you to see? Watersense?"

Peia: "..."

Sael: "Your eyes are the most beautiful opals I have ever seen! I could wander a thousand markets, explore a thousand mines and I'd still not find a jewel as beautiful as you are."

Peia: -blushes- "..."

Sael: "Not much of a singer, are you? Well, I have blades and tools with which to make you sing."

Peia: -frightened and threatened- "... Please don't..."

Sael: "Oh, he does sing afterall. It wasn't my imagination."

The Mountain King - Sael'Myr

One of the "suns" of the God Havura, Sael'Myr is the god of Steel and Fire, also known as the God of Mount Myra. Sael'Myr is the Blacksmith of the Gods, forging his blades in the fire of Mount Myra, and is called the patron god of blacksmiths, metalworkers, miners and jewelrers.

According to the legends, Sael has gifted both humans and dwarves with the knowledge to mine and work metals and gems. He did however, not foresee that the humans would make blades to move against him. When they did, he erupted Mount Myra and buried the humans bellow under tons of lava and ash. Ever since then, the survivors have a strong reverance and fear for Sael.

Sael is the Mountain God of Mount Myra. As the Blacksmith of god Havura, Sael makes the weapons the God and his clerics take to war. He often accompanies his father in war, usually using his Horned Spear to command the wrath of volcanoes and fires of the core of the earth to rage battlefields. He also made the Mirror of the Souls, that god Havura often uses to see the truth in criminals.

Sael is a loner and enjoys being on his mountain castle on his own. He protects Mount Myra and the surrounding Holds, often called as the God-King of the Mountain. Though he can cause eruptions, he cannot prevent them from naturally occurring, however, he has the ability to control the flow of said eruptions, and if you have a shrine to him near a vulcano, he will redirect the flames and ashes unto the sea. Miners also use talysmans of his symbol (the Horned Spear), so he can protect them from earthquakes.

In his free time, Sael enjoys glasswork and jewelry making, he also makes clutter, something unusual for a dragon who's main duty is to craft weapons of war. Though he does not like interacting with humans, he likes walking among their markets, usually looking for something pretty and shiny.

Currently Sael is facing a bit of a conundrum. Mount Myra is suffering from pollution, and the water Spring from Mount Myra has dried. Without it, Sael cannot temper the blades of the holy weapons, nor the metal of his jewelry, nor set the shapes of his glasswork. His entire craft is at danger. The books in his library say a gentle water spirit might be able to replenish the Spring.

D: Well, the Maid did say you had a guest, but I never imagined you'd find something quite so exquisite.

S: -growls-

P: -flushes red-...

S: Of course it's you.

D: Aren't you going to introduce us, Piggy?

S: No. Peia, forgive me, while I go see to my sister. -whyspers- While she's here, do not play and do not sing.

D: -smiles-

P:... -looks at her intimidated-

D: I'd love to meet the one who makes my brother smile that much. I am Dem'Myr, or Myr if you prefer, Goddess of Beauty and Art.

P: -bows his head respectfully-

D: Is that a harp? Do you play?

P: -nods-...

D: You must play for me. To gain the patronage from the Goddess of Music herself would be a great honor.

P:...

D: Stick around, little stray. I'll be sure to meet you once I am done doing business with my brother.
