A brown-haired boy dashes down the beach, laughing as he kicks up sand. Topping a rise, he skids to a stop as he spots the clutch below. Turning, Jessen cups both hands to his mouth and bellows at the darker figure trailing sedately behind him. "Aerix!!!"

The older man breaks into a run, panting as he reaches his young companion's side. "Jessen, you had me thinking you were hurt!" he scolds, peering down at the clutch. "And it was just a firelizard clutch."

"Just? Just?!" the boy replies, his tone managing to convey the complete insanity of anyone who can remain so calm about a firelizard clutch. "It's a clutch! Firelizards! Can we get some, Aerix, please, please?" he begs shamelessly.

Aerix hesitates, an old pain twinging in his chest. "...I suppose," he sighs finally. Dix.... It doesn't hurt so much, anymore. I think I'm ready for another of your ilk, now.

"Yes!!!" Jessen bolts down the rise, stopping a few respectful feet from the clutch. "Queen-lizard, can I have one of your eggs? Please?" he asks. "And Aerix too? He's a great guy, and he had a 'lizard once, but before he met me it-"

A large hand clamps over his mouth as Aerix arrives beside him. "She doesn't want to listen to a rambling monologue on every firelizard you've ever heard of, Jessen," he chides gently, before nodding to the queen. "We would appreciate a couple of your children, if you'd be so kind," he says politely.
