(Mikayla)
Mikayla found righting everything the Dragon had laid waste too just as difficult as she thought it would be. Everything in his domain was oversized and oversized was hard to lift. She had just properly stacked books back on the shelf when she heard Angus behind her. “I think that looks almost normal what do you think?” She said as she turned to face the man. It was then that she saw the tea and the Dragon. Mikayla Nodded her hellos to the Dragon but then smiled at Angus. “Oh thank you Angus. You shouldn’t have. This was ever so kind.” She was just about to ask if he was going to join her when she heard him say, he was going to clean as both she and the Dragon “relaxed”. She gave an apprehensive look over to Angus but then nodded when she saw his reassuring one. Turning to the dragon, she was about to say thank you when she heard his dig about people and blushed. She didn’t say anything, just moved to sit at the table. He was still angry.
(The Dragon, Angus)
Before leaving, Angus filled a cup for Mikayla and set it before her, leaving the tray within easy reach so she could add whatever she wished to suit her taste. He also brought out the dragon-sized cup, saucer and spoon that Mikayla had magically crafted earlier on a separate cart, leaving it within the dragon's reach. He then turned away discreetly and attended to cleaning up a different part of the room, far enough away to allow them some privacy.
The Dragon sat back on his haunches, picked up the teacup in one claw and began stirring it with the spoon in the other, frowning as he did so.
"I never did thank you, did I? For this?" he said suddenly, his deep voice sending a rumble through the stone floor. He continued to stare at his tea, not looking up. "At least, certainly not enough." Setting the spoon down, he took a long sip from the cup. "This... this reminds me that I was human. That part of me still is, inside at least. I forget that sometimes." He looked over the rim of the cup, his eyes meeting Mikayla's for the first time. "I ask your forgiveness."
