[It had been just over a week since Xzana awoke and quickly broke her wing in Luceti. Since then she's kept quiet. Sleeping deep in water to try to give her Luceti wing time to heal. Only really becoming active to eat, which is hard to catch with a broken wing. She had been told that everything in the village is free so she swallows her pride and decides to try for an easy meal.

She starts from emerging from the fountain. Still dressed in her white new feather dressed she doesn't seem to mind that it's see through for a bit. Her broken wing wrapped up in wet bandages. She's too busy following her nose to where she smells food to care how she looks. That brings her right to Seventh Heaven.

Hope you didn't leave your food to go to the bathroom. Anyone not sitting right next to their food right now will come back to find any meat on their plate gone. But, yeck! What have you guys done to your food!?

She continues to the kitchen. Ah! That's what she's looking for. Chefs are welcome to question what she's doing back there, but if no one stops her you'll have a hungry dragon going ahead and helping herself to all the raw meat that she can see.]

The tail and ears are not something I usually see on a human.

What's up with me ears? [No one ever notices those.]

Humans have much rounder ears. [She circles the boy.] Do you think you are human? Did you grow up among them?

[And no tails, speaking of, his tail coils up to get close behind him and he tries not to look at the no doubt somewhat tattered dress she has on. Or what can be seen through it. He nods] I was raised by humans, lived with 'em all my life and my brother's human too.

Hm, I suppose that will do it. Do you still think yourself as human then?

...It's complicated, okay. And it's beside the point, eating raw stuff's gross if you look like a human.

Do I really look human? [What with the giant wings, longer than normal limbs, eyes, and ears. Sharp fangs and claws. Oh, and scales.]

...Little bit? You got the shape. [But then, so did Amaimon. He grunts, and shifts his footing] Guess not though - still seems kinda wack.

If it helps. I do not always have this shape. [Not that she has any intention to show you. Shape shifting with a broken bone is foolish, let alone with some strange new appendage you don't know how it will effect the shifting.]

...wack? I have not smacked anything.

Oh, okay. [His tail curls up to his body and he frowns. Uuuuuuh] No, like weird? Kinda gross?

Gross? It's what humans do to make the meat taste funny. This is just natural.

Seriously? Come on, cooking and spicing things makes everything better.

Bleck. Have you ever tried raw meat? If you have then you will understand why it is better and more respectful to the creature that is giving you their life.

Raw meat makes people sick - I've seen it, there's like diseases and blood's not good for 'em either.

How did the humans get so weak? [It's sad.]

What's weak about that? It's just how folks are.

If their stomachs are so weak that they get sick from food then that is not good. What if they are unable to cook their food or find those funny things they put on it? Then they shall die.

Any idiot can make a fire. And look, that's underestimating em- oi. [He groans and flicks his tail, not believe he's saying this] If you wanna eat this raw I guess that's fine even if it's gross, but 'least let me pull out what you're gonna eat apart from the rest on a plate or something.

Plate?

Something to sit it on? So it don't get on the floor?

No need. The food is going into my body, it does not need to sit on something first.

And what about spilling, and your hands getting it- look, I need to cook that, I'm not having you just eat right out the basket! [In fact, he's going to grab her wrist]

[HEY! HEY! NO TOUCHING! Touching a dragon while it's eating is never a good idea. Luckily though, she's still a little confused about this "free" concept and realizes that just maybe this wasn't the "free" stuff.

So instead of biting and possibly taking away that arm she just growls threateningly. For now.]

LET GO!

[To be fair, he'd probably regrow it if it was taken off at all. But he lets go, backing off with a snort] Fine! Just hear me out with that, huh?

If the food here is not truly free as I have been told then I will leave you to your food and go hunt. [If you were expecting some sort of apology for snarling or eating the food before that, you'll be waiting awhile.]
