OOC: how's that?

The light slowly faded away and Steven stood on the other side of the portal. Darkness replaced the light and as things got into focus stars in the sky appeared and the sounds of bugs filled the background. Two dragons were standing in front of him, waiting to meet him. The one was a large black dragon standing on his four feet. And the other was a smaller dragon, about half Steven's size, a maroon color and walking on her hind legs like a raptor. Her eyes were green and fierce, almost glowing in the night. She had a short fin down her back to the tip of her tail. Both dragons wore badges, fastened by strings, around their necks.
ooc: You still call the sail like membranes on reptiles fins, right? Or is there another name that's slipping my mind?

OOC: yeah, it's called a fin.
BIC: Steven was woozy from the teleported and it took a second to get his bearings. Seeing the eyes first and the dragons second, a bit of fear found its way into his heart. Naturally, he told a joke, looking at the two as he grinned, "Under arrest already? It's not looking good for me." He said, some combination of nervousness or confidence permeating his tone and demeanor.

The larger dragon gave a hearty laugh, although it may have been forced a bit. The smaller dragon however just rolled her eyes and kept quiet. "No, nothing like that." The larger dragon said stepping forward. "You must be Steven. I'm Chief Bolo and this is officer Ryze. We're here to meet you and take you to your accommodations."

"I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that the police are escorting me, given the circumstances." Steven said.

"You're a very important person." Chief Bolo answered. "A police escort is the least we can do. The Senator had planned to meet you personally, but you know how things can get at the last minute."

"Makes sense. I suppose as ambassador of Earth I should greet you. Greetings from the human race." Steven says, holding his hand out.

"I think we've already been through all the formalities." Bolo said gently slapping a hand on Steven's back instead, still almost knocking him over. "We can be a bit more casual now don't you agree? Unless you insist that we do this by the book."

Steven gave an oof and then laughed, slapping her on the back in turn, "You'd be surprised." He said simply.

ooc: 'him'. Big dragon is a he and is the chief. Little dragon is a she and is a potential choice for you. She hasn't said anything to you yet.
"Great!" The Chief replied. "Then shall we head to your lodgings? You would probably like to get settled in."

"That would be nice." Steven said, the petal actually taking a bit out of him, though he didn't show it.

Chief Bolo started down the road and the little dragon followed behind the two. "We've arranged for you to meet with your friend tomorrow where we're preparing your generators." The Chief told him. "In the mean time if there's anything you need just ask Ryze. She's at your disposal."

"Oh? So like a bodyguard?" I ask, looking to her.

"Bodyguard?" Bolo said with a laugh that made the dragon behind them give a loud 'humph!' "No, nothing like that. She's just there to make sure you don't get lost and find your way back home. Think of her like your secretary. If you want directions she'll give it to you, if you run out of milk she'll go buy some for you. That's her job."

"She seems ecstatic for the role." Steven said, pulling out a notepad from his pocket and pulled a pen from the spiral binding of the notepad.

"Don't mind her, she doesn't realize how lucky she is." Bolo said as a building came into view. "Here we are."

"Looks good." Steven said, excited. He was jotting down notes in his notepad, nigh illegible scribbles in the darkness.

Bolo left Steven to his doings and opened the door when they reached the apartment. "I hope you find everything satisfactory." Bolo told him. "If not Ryze will be here to assist you."

"Thank you." Steven says, going in and searching the wall for the light. It didn't take him long to find it and he surveyed the apartment as he slipped his notepad back into his pocket.

The apartment looked cozy enough with all the usual luxuries. There were some books on a bookshelf. There were the sofas, paintings of landscapes, a kitchen that was fully stocked and bathroom with the necessities. "Then I'll be going, have a good night." Chief Bolo said and left Steven to explore his apartment. Ryze moved to the side of the door outside, also keen on leaving Steven to his own devices.

"Nice." Steven said, turning to stand under the door, "Night Chief." He said, resting his shoulder on the door frame and looking down to Ryze, "Hi. Names Steven. Friends call me Nougat." He said casually, holding his hand out for a hand shake.

"Officer Ryze, Sir." The small dragon saluted instead of accepting the handshake. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Sir. If there is anything I can do for you, within the boundaries of my appointed task, I wont hesitate to help you."

Stevens hand rose to a salute as well, "Duly noted Ma'am." He said, looking out to the surroundings once again before turning inside, "You coming in? Cause I'm gonna close the door." he said, peaking outside once more.

"I was appointed to be stationed outside your apartment." Ryze replied. "I will be here if you need anything."

"Alrighty than, I'll be in here if you need me." He said, mostly instinctually, and closed the door as he went to explore what the house had to offer, focusing mostly (if not exclusively) on the array of books on the bookshelf.

There wasn't many books to choose from. A guide to to the town, a book about dragon culture and a book about mythical humans. There were also a romance novel, a fantasy novel about dragons and humans and a novel about an adventurer. And that was really all there were.

Steven picked up and thumbed through the Romance, Fantasy, and Adventure novels before settling on the Fantasy. It was interesting seeing the difference in perspective from the dragons in terms of mythological Humans. Some other time he thought he might pick up the book about Mythological Humans as well, though tonight he preferred lighter reading.

The book was about a dragon that discovered a human, the last of his kind, and they became friends. Although he had to keep him hidden. Your pretty standard fantasy affair, but with the roles of the dragon and human reversed.

"Interesting." I say, continuing ot read the books into the night. I would probably get to sleep after covering these books.
