It was a peaceful afternoon as Royal Margarine sits with his partner on their throne, his back resting on one arm and his legs resting over the other as he sits on his lovers lap. Longan dragons eyes were closed as they're clawed hand ran through Royal Margarine hair.
Royal Margarine was reading a book that he has been procrastinating on for a while now, but was he paying attention to the words on the paper? No, not really. He's thoughts were a little all over the place. A annoyed grumble caught his attention as he looked to his left over to where dragon eye cookie had been sitting.
Royal Margarines relationship with dragon eye has been...good? He hoped at least it was. The hatchling still referred to him as his name. Though, Instead of grumbling and complaining every time he showed up, they seemed to have become ...Desensitized to his presence in the palace. Dragon eye was messing with a strange puzzle box that he had brought back after a exploration with buttercream. The dragon seemed to enjoy the gift, they made a good amount of progress until they got stumped. He chuckled to himself as he saw the scowl on dragon Eyes face for not being able to complete the puzzle box.
Dragon eye looked over at the two before getting up and moving to stand in front of them. "What do you need?" Royal Margarine raised a brow as he gave them a slight smile, only to be shut down by the small dragon huffing at him and looking up towards their parent "Mama?" Longan's eyes didn't open as they were called by their offspring, instead, one of the orbs that was hovering around shifted to look at them. "What is it, my child?"
They spoke in a soft tone, thare hand not stopping as they played with his hair. Royal Margarine has seen a bit of longan dragons parenting style, with it consisting of letting the hatchling try to solve problems by themselves and only helping to put them on the right track. Longan never did anything for dragon eye cookie, and anytime Royal Margarine did something like peeling a fruit or reaching up to grab something for dragon eye, it would get them a Stern glare from their partner.
"I can't figure this out..." dragon eye sed lifting up the box to longan.
There was a pause before longans eyes opened and looked down at there child.
"If you're progress with that box has been stopped, Then I would suggest a break from it."
The small dragon groans, annoyed about not getting the response they wanted. But they don't continue as they disengage. They look around to see what else they can do.
Longan hums in approval at their hatchlings handling of the situation. Longan dragon closed their eyes once more as they Leaned their head forward, nuzzling against their partner's neck Making Royal Margarine chuckle before he shifted up to lean his back against their chest.
A exaggerated gagging noise can be heard from dragon eye as they rolled their eyes, followed by the sound of their talons tapping against the marble floor as they left the room.
He injoys the silence that fills the room as he basks in his lovers presence. Longan's hands move to hold onto his waist pulling him up close as they continued to rub their face into his hair. Royal Margarine learned to savor these moments because they don't happened often. Longan wasn't one to show affection openly, So the occasional moment like this meant a lot to him.
His thoughts were brought back as a low rumble sounds and his partner leaning their head back ever so slightly. It wasn't until he heard a soft, almost non-existent pop and warm breath washing over him when panic settled in. "NOPE!" Royal Margarine yelped. he leaned forward and looked behind him, catching as longan dragons open mouth slowly closed and their eyes narrowed at him from what he could consider a playful expression.
It wasn't long after him and longan had gotten together when he was told by other cookies at a dragon meeting that dragons had a peculiar way of showing affection. Biting. At the time he thought it could be a possibility because buttercream anytime she was wanting attention would nibble and pull at his clothes. But what they described was NOTHING like what he would end up experiencing. Longan was twice the size of him easily and the first time they bit him wasn't a little playful nibble, no, but his entire shoulder in their mouth and them clamping down so hard he wasn't able to move his arm for 3 days.
"You over react, weak one"
Longan spoke with a calm, low rumble as they pulled him a little closer and leans thare chest closer to his back.
Royal Margarine rolled his eyes as a faint blush colors his cheeks
"I think you're forgetting the fact that im going on a mission tomorrow? I can't risk any injuries"
Longan listened, thinking for a long moment before they loosened thare grip a little, letting him pull away. Royal Margarine breathes out a breath he was holding as he relaxed, settling back.
He looked up as he heard the sound of flapping wings as buttercream descended from the open ceiling. She has seemed to adapt well to the new environment though she wasn't fully comfortable with longan. Buttercream landed and trilled happily as royal Margarine stood up to greet, scratching underneath chin.
"Oh how are you doing my sweet buttercream?"
She churps as she bobs her head in response before opening her mouth and dropping a scared wet blueberry bird carrying a letter.
He yelped at the site of the poor thing as he picks it up, setting the shivering creature on his shoulder. Taking the piece of parchment, he unrolled it and finds that it is a letter from the dragon riders Guild. Reading it through he makes a exhausted sigh, before looking towards his partner.
"It seems that the Guild is wanting me to return early..."
he always felt bad leaving longan, they didn't get time together as much as the both of them wanted but longan dragon was always understanding. They stood up as they moved to be in front of him. Longans hand reaches up to caress his cheek before lifting it up and bringing him into a kiss.
"then we shall wait for your return... And do not do anything stupid... Again"
Royal Margarine chuckles, returning the kiss as he gives the confidence smile "when have I ever done anything stupid?... Don't answer that. Oh But i shall think of you my love as I travel, and my heart shall ache to be with you again." He gives longan one last kiss before pulling away and getting up onto buttercream.
all he can think of as he soars through the skies is when he would get to see those beautiful golden eyes again.
