HATCHING
It had been a few weeks since Teyumeth's clutch had hatched, and the Dragonry was starting to fall into a lull again. It was a welcome surprise, then, when the next clutch chose to hatch. Nine candidates were ushered onto the sands as the eggs rocked around their mother, Shonakasen, sitting in the middle.
Before long there was a crack as the first egg hatched. A pair of slender wings came out first, glistening with silver membranes. The hatchling's red body soon became visible as she struggled out of her egg. With a final kick, she removed the egg shell and climbed to two unsteady feet.
The candidates watched hopefully as she turned her head, but they were disappointed when the hatchling chose to sponsor in stead of bond.
With all the candidates distracted by a very peculiar hatchling who hinted at ruling the world, another two eggs had hatched, while another showed signs of cracking any second now. A stately silver-purple stopped in front of Ringo. "My name is Menazey, Ringo, and this running about and getting into trouble is going to stop, honestly," he said with a snort. Once it was just the two of them, though, he added, "Besides, it's more fun when people don't know you're responsible."

Name: Menazey
Breed: Dragon Whorling/Atuan mutt/Hathian
Gender: Male
Color: Silver-Purple
Abilities: Telepathy, Teleportation, Verbal Speech, Teleki-nesis.
Personality: Menazey is commonly a very stately and regal dragon, serious and responsible with what power and confidence is entrusted to him. He seems to disapprove of tricks and troublemakers, but he's not as serious as he'd like you to believe. Just because he doesn't laugh out loud at a practical joke doesn't mean he doesn't enjoy watching it.

ADULTS
Menazey looked up and yawned when Ringo walked past him for the seventh time that hour. Counting wasn't a dragon's strong point, but every dragon would know that that was plenty.
"What are you doing?" Menazey asked his rider.
Fearing the worst, Menazey waited for the response. Really even if he'd done all he could to keep his bond out of trouble, Ringo did not seem to be able to learn a single thing from Menazey's teachings.
Menazey hadn't even asked him to give up the practical jokes and obnoxious curiosity. Far from it, but he'd thought he'd at least made Ringo aware of the fact that he could cover up his tracks.
"Nothing." Ringo said, his right eyebrow twitching in the telltale fashion that proved to Menazey he had a right to question his rider.
"Don't think I didn't see your eye. Now spill."
"Really... nothing."
There it was again.
"You should really take classes on controlling your nerves." Menazey sighed, "I mean you're obvious. And I know it has got something to do with me."
Ringo turned away.
"It's so easy to read you."
"Well, I'm not doing anything bad."
No twitch. A truth after all. Were they maybe arranging a birthday party? Holding a secret meeting to bake cookies? Menazey still had his suspicions.
"So you're not doing anything bad and it has to do with me." the silver dragon pondered while his purple wings flapped, displaying several tints caused by the dimmed lights. With all the dignity and authority he had in his body - and that was lots - Menazey stood up and looked his rider square in the eye. He stood there and waited, looking. It took only five minutes before his rider crumbled, knowing from earlier experience that there was no escaping Menazey when he put his mind to something.
"I registered us for a flight."
"And that was what you were sneaking around for?"
"Yes!"
"I have no objections against participating in a flight. Just tell me when and where."
"Then why get so anal about it?"
"It was you who got nervous. Guilty conscience and all, I had to inspect." Menazey shrugged and then returned to his sleep.
