[Semi-OPEN] Time for a Night Out!
Who: Spyro and you!
Where: The Night Shift
When: Sporadically during August
What: Spyro invited friends to the Night Shift, or it's your chance encounter with said dragon
Warnings: Probably not, if no one drinks alcohol
A - Dark Hollow
A tavern like the Night Shift is probably an odd place to find a Diatu student, let alone its the only actual dragon (thus far) since the faculty doesn’t encourage such activities. But it was the first place Spyro could find willing to accept him as a customer and accept a fairly complicated custom drink order.
He got a bit more than he bargained for in a good way. The dragon slid over a generous tip for their troubles and was left to enjoy the first and best unicorn frappuccino that he’s tasted since being dumped here by sundering magic and being the new mascot for the bar, whatever that means.
Well. Not entirely left alone.
But the experience was nice enough that Spyro (possibly against better judgment) decided to invite any friend or two to come along with him one night. With advance notice that they’re semi-ironically going to a bar.
Or maybe for some reason you’re a fellow student who just so happened to consider the spot a suitable hangout. Spyro can be seen sipping at his pink drink while rowdy common folk are boasting about who can take the little guy on in the ring or loudly shout challenges his way.
B - Spyro’s Ring
Said challenges are annoying sometimes, but it’s a good way for Spyro to show his stuff without any serious consequences as long as he keeps his fire breath to a minimum. Because he has noticed while he might be able to just barely get away with setting someone’s pants aflame, their skin is another matter.
He crouches at the ready as if he is a mighty predator far bigger than his actual size, while a brawny tavern regular he doesn’t care to remember the name of at the moment cracks his knuckles.
"Look at ye! A little baby lizard like you ain’t gonna stand a chance!"
"Oh yeah? You planning to sit on me, bubble-butt?"
Both sides are clearly oozing with confidence. This can only end well for one of them.
Wildcard!
[Got something else in mind at the Night Shift?]

Sighing at Spyro's observations, Yuki then shook his head. "If the hail in the Summer isn't weird enough, we've had killer plants, people needing sleep and libraries on fire."
He thought of Kazuma and hadn't seen the kid around for a while which was odd. But the part about the history caught his attention.
"Are there other dragons here too then?"
no subject
"Just the one I know of who saved my life," Spyro replies. A guarded answer, considering he neglects to mention the ghost dragon.
The nosier men might listen for a while longer, but the answer doesn't cause a panic about dragons returning en masse since Ire's rescue of Spyro probably wasn't easy for most of the other natives to miss.

He thought about ordering one of the drinks that Spyro had, but instead ended up just ordering a cup of green tea. And when the bar person left to get the tea, he looked back at Spyro.
The last dragon he knew had erased his friends' memories years ago when a girl had accidentally hugged him and tranformed him into a rat. But the curse was broken here, and Spyro definitely wasn't a human at all.
"I don't suppose you've heard anything about us going home."
no subject
Said dragonfly is hard to pick out against the shine of the building's lightbulbs even as the dragon does his best to point them out, keeping busy by being an insect exterminator.
no subject
So the dragon wasn't alone because he had someone from his home with him too. Well that was good news too. It almost made him wish he had the same, but if it was to be someone from his family, well that would be okay depending on who it was of course.
"I've been hearing people have regained some of the things they could do back home too." And he really hoped that did NOT include his curse returning.
no subject
Not that Spyro's ever thought to check for sure, but he assumes he would've noticed immediately if such a thing as similarly integral to dragons as his fire breath was gone.
But he also hasn't gone swimming lately either.no subject
Looking at Spyro now, he smiled. "But if you've got everything then it sounds like you're okay."
