------------------------------------------------
The man in front of you blabbers on, contently engaging in a conversation with you. Unbeknownst to him, a needy dragon impatiently swishes his tail unconsciously, practically glaring holes into the man’s head in the corner of the room. If it weren’t for March 7th’s earlier intervention of “Dan Heng, you need to give them space to talk to the guy! It seems pretty important to them~? Mm… Dan Heng, go in the corner!” with a cheeky grin and all, he’d be by your side as usual. He suddenly notices your glance as you turn your head to check on him, noticing his own tail swishing as well before promptly and stiffly stopping the movement. But he liked this short, sweet moment of attention from you. Too bad the man in front of you stole your attention away from what was rightfully his again. Pay attention to your needy dragon!
~~~~~~~~~~~
You never understood why he liked sleeping in the archives room so much. Regardless, you had your own room in the Astral Express and that was all you needed — some privacy. That was until Dan Heng had suddenly decided that your room was to be shared with him, same bed and all. No, not your room anymore, the both of you shared it. You should get that right from now on, unless you want a pouty Vidyadhara in bed at night.
Not to mention that there was beginning to be a growing pile of pillows and blankets on your bed that Dan Heng kept bringing over. At least he was comfortable with you enough to do so.
Speaking of which, though you had not broken the unfathomable and taboo rule today, a pout laid on his face as he snuggled deeper into you in bed that night. You gently hummed, petting his hair in a soothing manner, “What’s up with the pout?”
“…Nothing. I’m fine.”
“Oh? Then why the sulking?”
You tilted his head up, an amused smile on your face as you observed his cute expression. A hint of red dusted his cheeks and ears as Dan Heng mumbled out a response, sulking harder. “Hnn… I’m not sulking…”
He pushed his face back against the crook of your neck despite the hand under his chin, hiding in the comfort of your arms and neck again. How cute and unusual of him.
~~~~~~~~~~~
You’ve noticed that Dan Heng’s been acting a little weird lately. He’s been sulking more, talking less, and has been clinging and following you around to an absurd degree. Were all dragons this clingy?
He, in particular, gave a weird response when Sunday, a new member of the Astral Express, sat next to you on the plush red seats of the train.
Dan Heng's tail not-so-subtly curled around your waist as he stared intensely in front of him. You disregard Dan Heng's waist curling around you. It was cute, and he had been pretty clingy lately anyway. Meanwhile, the Sunday was too flustered to notice Dan Heng's mood, pink painting his cheeks. He averted his eyes, shyly gazing at the floor as he tried not to squirm out of nervousness.
"Trailblazer... I used the new cologne you got me. It smells very nice and I really appreciate it. Would you mind if we... went out again?"
"Oh? You like it, Sunny? Of course! We can go out again together."
"Ah... Thank you..."
Dan Heng's fist clenched.
~~~~~~~~~~~
That night, Dan Heng comes to your room again. Actually, no, he follows you to your room this time. Right after your conversation with Sunday. Usually, he would do his own thing in the archive room before returning to your room like every night. However, he was being extra needy and touchy today, practically pouncing onto you the second you got onto the bed.
He sighed, leaning against you in bed, clutching your shirt in his fist, "I thought you were mine..."
"Yours?"
"Hnn... We sleep together in bed every night now, don't we? And I follow you every where you go and provide protection... That's what mates do."
"..."
"...What? You know I'm in heat. You're already quite fortunate that I'm even holding back right now... Mm..."
Oh. So that's what the pile of pillows and blankets were for. You did not know.
He cutely tilts his head up at you, pouting with flushed cheeks. "What are you waiting for...? I need babies... And it was already torturous enough that you were talking to Sunday. Make it up to me...♡"
