Draco smiled as he licked his lips as well. “Sounds great. If you start the fire I’ll get the different meats cut away so we can eat.” He said. He then started cutting he deer open, removing the fur.
Whoops sorry XD))
And sure))

Acorn got to work, gathering a few small sticks and kindling. Oka helped by gathering larger wood, the stuff that would actually sustain the fire. They brought their findings together, assembled a small ring of rocks to act as the fire pit, and arranged the wood as to best allow for airflow and heat. Then, Acorn pulled away, and Oka spat, breathing out a tiny ball of flame. The wood erupted to life, as most of it was quite dry. Acorn clapped in excitement. It was done!

About the time the fire was lit, Draco had finished cutting out the meat that Draco and Acorn could eat. He then turned to Oka and smiled. “Do you want to eat the meat off the bone or would you like me to cut it off?” He asked.

Oka smirked and reached out with a huge paw. She gripped the carcass and pulled it away, shaking her head. It was fine as it. Then she knelt down and began to eat.
Acorn sat beside the fire, poking it with a long stick. She waited as Draco affixed the delicious strips of meat upon sticks and set it above the flame, then, as he finished, pat the ground beside her with a smile. She could use a companion to talk to.

Draco watched as Oka pulled the carcass away. “Then I’ll leave you to it.” He said with a chuckle. He then fixed the meat he’d cut onto sticks as he went back to Acorn and sat next to her, kissing her cheek lightly. “Mmm the fire feels so nice.”

Acorn purred, then took him by the shoulders and guided him to lay down, his head in her lap. "Thank you for taking me and Oka in." She murmured, a soft smile on her lips. "I know we wouldn't have made it far without you."

Draco smiled, then laughed as his friend forced him to lay down and he smiled up at her. “No problem, Acorn. I like helping others, especially pretty and kind women like you.” He said happily.

She flustered brightly and gave him a smack on the shoulder. "Dont just say stuff like that!" Though she was smiling brightly. She liked it. Now she began to run her hands through his hair, scratching and rubbing his head in a comforting manner.

Draco grinned and sighed happily as she scratched and rubbed his head and he relaxed under her touch, blinking slowly. “Mmm that feels nice, Acorn...” he murmured as he began growling g softly with pleasure.

Acorn purred and leaned forward to scratch his back too. "Good. Just relax. You've had plenty of work already, I'll cook." After all, she was a goddess of a cook. And she even had a few herbs and spices in her bag. But that was after the meat had been cooked, and Draco was relaxed.

Draco nodded and relaxed more under her careful touch. He liked this, Acorn gently scratching him, and he didn’t want it to end. He sighed happily and looked up at Acorn, eyes half-closed.

"Dont fall asleep now." She teased. And as his eyes closed moreso and his attention waned, she motioned to Asla to turn the meat over. Surely it was cooked through on the one side.

Draco smirked a little and nestled into her a bit more, loving the close feeling he had with her at this moment. “Mmm but You’re making me fall asleep....” he murmured as he gazed up at her, just taking in all her beauty as he relaxed with her.
Asla wandered over and did as Acorn asked, carefully rotating the meat and then quickly backing up. She didn’t like fire that much.

Acorn noted Asla's dislike of fire, saving that tidbit of info for later. Now she just focused on the little thing upon her lap. She giggled. "Then sleep a bit. All you did was meditate last night, right?" It didnt really matter though. The closeness was what she wanted.

He laughed and tried to stay awake. “Well my meditation still gives my mind rest so it’s like sleep. I’m really fine it’s just you’re scratching that’s forcing me to sleep.” He said happily. “Why don’t you tell me about your home? I’m interested to hear about where you cane from.”

She smiles and continues, focusing on his temples. "A small village. Maybe 10 extended families, yknow, cousins and aunts and uncles. Once we come of age, we are required by tradition to go into the world for a minimum of five years and understand that which we are not a part of. We're also requires to bring something of value home. Knowledge, treasure, whatever." Acorn purred at his reactions. "But we live a very comfortable life there. Plenty of food, water, shelter. Everyone is very close. The only thing that I didnt like was how our standing in the village was based on what family we were born to. I was of the lowest family. The only way to increase my standing, should I decide to return, is to bring great value home." Like you, she thought.

Draco nodded slowly, growling more when she rubbed his temples and he smiled. “I see. Have you found anything that valuable to bring home yet?” He asked as he blinked slowly as he looked up at her.

Oh. How she wanted to say yes, and say his name. But she didnt know him enough to ask for him to give up his life to join her back home. Instead she shook her head. "I was going to sneak in to the biggest castle I could find and take as many scrolls as I could stuff in."

Draco laughed a bit and looked up at her. “Good luck with that. If you’re from as small a village as it sounds, you won’t be able to find the castle, much less get in and then out unseen.” He said amusedly. “But that is a lofty goal.” He replied as he reached up and lightly touched his hand to her cheek. “I’m sure you’ll do well in whatever you decide.”

She blushed a bit and glanced away. "I dont know the world. Do you think..." No. He already agreed to teach her to survive in the wild. To ask him to continue to stay with her was too much. Right? Oka let out a grunt. The meat was going to burn if it stayed any longer. Though she was content with her food, she didnt want the humans hungry.

“Think... what?” He asked softly as he gazed up at her. When he heard Oka grunt he looked over at her then saw the food on the fire and snapped out of his daze. “Oh the food! It’s gonna burn!” He said, sitting up quickly and moving to get the sticks.

Acorn sighed, realizing that was the end of that little blissful moment. Now she moved towards Oka, where she had laid her bag down, and began to rummage for her cooking supplies. A pot, a few herbs and spices, some spoons. A potato!

Draco looked over as Acorn got all her supplies out and he smiled. “Well you sure came prepared.” He commented playfully. “Is there anywhere you’d like these?” He asked as he looked over at the dragon and human.

She placed the pot down. "Drop them in here. I'll cut them up finely and add this potato. Delicious little stew." She smiled. "Bread in my bag, too. But we need some water."

Hearing the word water, Asla perked up and trotted over. She came up to Acorn and nudged her softly, then made a purring sound in inquiry, as if asking where she should put the water.
Draco smiled and nodded as he put the meat into the pot then watched as Asla came up to Acorn. “Looks like Asla wants to help too.” He said happily as e tried to help by getting the bread and stuff.

Acorn purred again and placed a hand on Asla's head. "Pot. Please." Then she pulled out her little throwing knife, and cut up the steak swiftly into small chunks before the water was added.

Gtg))
Asla nodded and smiled, then tipped her head and easily let out water from inside her and into the pot. It was fresh, filtered water too. Once the dragon had filled it up enough she stopped and then purred happily at her work.
Draco sat nearby and watched, just liking the friendly atmosphere surrounding them in this moment.

"Thank you!" She pet Asla once more, chuckling, then set to adding different herbs and spices, just s pinch here and there, to make it excitable. [Okay! Me too, for a little.]

Asla purred happily as she was praised and petted, tail waving happily.
Draco sat nearby, watching Asla and Acorn happily. He liked that they were all friends, and that they could talk and have fun freely.

Kace's eyes widened as the tail flung at him, and he was knocked onto his side. For a moment, the wind was knocked out of him. Making no attempt to reach for his sword, the boy weakly raised one of his hands, but stayed down as if to show he meant no harm. However, he kept his shield beside him in case the dragon decided to attack again. Onyx looked awestruck at the male's ability to change the colour of his scales, and let out a tiny gasp as he did so. She nodded, then curled up against his side, already half asleep. It had been a tiring day indeed, and she just needed some rest. Scarlet lets out a small huff as a small puff of smoke came out of her nostrils as she relaxed a bit.
