First Clutch of Rocky! ^-^

[PhazonDragon]

Content with watching the hatching, Rafael wasn't prepared for what happened next. He was gazing at the brown fire lizard as he walked around, as if looking for something. The historian wasn't paying much attention to the little being until it decided to fly at his face. Rafael didn't see anything but a brown blur that jumped out of nowhere and latched onto his clothing--it climbed up the fabric to cling onto the German's face. "Augh! What the--?" he exclaimed, his thick German accent creeping into his voice. Rafael flailed his arms, but managed to grab the silly creature and hold it still. Well, he certainly wasn't trying to claw off his face, but Rafael didn't appreciate it making a pillow out of his head.

Prying the brown flitter from his head, Rafael held the thing out in front of him. The brown fire lizard's eyes whirled rainbow colors as the bond was made between the two. "Oh, you have got to be kidding me. I can't take care of this odd thing... I can't watch over it. He's going to be all over my stuff and making a mess of everything. Not to mention that he'd be kinda hard to hide from the general public," Rafael muttered, indicating that he didn't live at the weyr. Not that he got many visitors anyway. "Really?" he asked no one, setting the brown down on the sands. "I guess I have to. I can't refuse... I have to name him, don't I?" Rafael said, inspecting the brown fire lizard.

The historian rubbed at his face, where tiny talons had scratched at his cheek and nose when the fire lizard scrabbled for a hold. The brown on the sand before Rafael peered up at the historian with his head cocked to the side like a dog. His mouth was open in a draconic grin, his tongue sitting outside his mouth. But what was the most interesting feature was his pale head and feet. The fire lizard's head was half pale, just along the top, as if a tribal decorative skull was placed there. He also wore pale brown socks, in contrast with his milk chocolate brown hide. Distinctive markings, not to mention that he was a very hyper flitter...

"They really arent all that bad. Hobbs is but he's only one firelizard."

Faizah shoved a bowl of meat into Rafael's hands. "Oh, thank you...?" he murmured. "But he tried to claw my face off," Rafael frowned. Past grievances aside, though they happened moments ago, the German raised an eyebrow at the brown fire lizard, as he started to run in a circle, chasing his own tail. "His name is going to be Totenkopf," Rafael declared decisively. At the mention of the German word, the brown looked up. "Totenkopf." Rafael tossed down a piece of meat for the flitter.

Faizah gave a small laugh at the little brown's antics as she wrote down the name Rafael had provided her. Then she answered him. "He's an excitable little thing. You should have seen Reyna when she hatched. She flew around my room for an hour before she settled down enough to sleep and gorge herself. At the same time she gave me more gashes than you have scratches."

Faizah moved on to Shinji, who had the little green settled upon his shoulder. "What are you going to call her?" She asked politely.

Shinji could only laugh at the bossy little green. She was certainly a personality, wasn't she...oh dear. He was going to be overrun by greens. He distantly felt Sakura's surge of disapproval, and the older green flit winger over to her human to sit by his side and scold him loudly for not feeding her new friend.

Shinji grabbed some meat and began to offer it to the prim leafy-colored green on his shoulder, and grinned up at Faizah.
"Ah! Weyrwoman...I think...her name shall be..." He regarded the green for a moment, who looked back at him expectantly, and opened her mouth and waited for another peice of food. "Haruko. Her name is Haruko."

The newly-dubbed flitter squealed happily and proceeded to lightly nibble his fingers as he seemed to need to be reminded to feed her. Sakura crawled up onto his other shoulder and looked proud, and Shinji could already tell this was going to be a very interesting combination.

A'shan blinked rapidly, halfway unsure of what to do, but as the tiny blue creature looked at him, he could only crack a smile. He gently rubbed the blue's still slightly sticky head with one finger, and offered up a peice of meat from the bowl next to him. The handsome blue peered at him suspiciously for a second, then wolfed down the meat with astounding speed. And burped.

The bond sealed, the little blue scooted forward and began to edge into A'shan's lap, crooning softly and begging for either mor food, more attention, or very possibly both. A'shan was stunned; this little creature was projecting it's emotions onto him. And it was kind of nice. He wondered if that was the way it should have been with Azulith...he shook his head, banishing the thought, and instead focused on the small blue. He'd need a name.

Hmm. He was a lovely dark watery blue, with the most lovely intricate marble-like patterning on his legs, tail, and neck. Almost like he were carved of some beautiful stone...aha. What had that rock been called, the one Lorelei seemed so fond of? Ah yes.
"Lazuli. How does that sound, little one? Your name is Lazuli..."

[FaizahPandora]

Faizah nodded as she wrote down the name and took measurements. Then she headed over to A'shane. "What are you going to name him?" She asked.

((Okay, I'm closing this hatching. Momo and Wafflez, please message me with a name for your flitters.))
