Marshmallow Roasting Party (open to anyone!)

[cor_draconis]

Draco seriously doubts that he'll ever understand how anyone can find marshmallows appealing. Little lumps of sticky-sweet sugar, pierced with a stick that's been goodness-knows-where and then purposely burned to a crisp, just don't sound very appetizing to the dragon. But several of his newfound friends seem fond of them, and he thinks it might

Adira walks in with Cellena, two marshmellow forks and a large bag.

Hello again Lord Draco.

With a big grin from both Adira and Cellena.

If you must roast marshmellows yopu should make "smores".

[cor_draconis]

Lady Adira! Draco grins broadly as he sees Adira and her niece. And Miss Cellena. I'm so pleased both of you could attend. Ah, and it seems you've come fully prepared! He lowers his head to sniff curiously at the bag. Hmm. What are "smores," exactly?

[adira_tyree]

Adira grins and pulls out the fork... extending its handle and allowing Cellena to load it with Marshmallows for roasting.

A smore is a very indulgent human treat. I am very fond of them..

She roasts teh Marshmallows an then looks between her small grahm crackers and the dragon.

Hmm.. perhaps I should make an extra big one for you.

so she takes out two crackers.

First you get grahm crackers.. I am partial to the Cinnimon ones myself.

Then she pulls out a Hershey bar and lays it on top of the crackers.

Then add chocolate.

Finally using the secong cracker she pulls the hot marshmalloows off of one of the forks. Then hands it to Draco.

Cellena crosses her arms and pouts.

Where's mine?

Adira smiles and starts to construct a smaller one with only a quarter of the cracker for her niece.

[cor_draconis]

Draco watches intently as they construct the smore. Fascinating... humans make the consumption of food such an elaborate process. A dragon would never go to the trouble. It's so much easier to just swallow one's kill whole! He looks at Cellena with sudden chagrin, hoping his words won't upset the child.

Well, I've already had a full meal today, but why not? He accepts the smore with a grin, licking it off his claw as if it were just a stray crumb. Then working the morsel around in his mouth as he rumbles thoughtfully. Interesting flavor. Sweet, yet crunchy... the chocolate goes well with the crackers. And the cinnamon adds a pleasant aftertaste... it's really not bad. He gulps the rest of it down, only to find some of the marshmallow clinging to his jaws. He wipes at it with a snort. Sticky, but not bad!

Cartagia looks puzzled as he stares at the dragon on the beach. he had thought that everyone had lost thier minds when they said there was a big, talking lizard that wanted to eat marshmallows on the beach but here it is and he is more then intrigued.

Mun looks embarassed..I know I posted this in the wrong place before.

[cor_draconis]

Draco watches the stranger approach, his expression curious but polite. As he nears the dragon lowers his head in greeting. Welcome. My name is Draco. Would you care for a marshmallow?

That is okay! :)

[living_god]

Cartagia nearly jumps out of his skin when Draco greets him.

Ah, You must be the dragon, or whatever it was that the Human's were making all of the fuss about.

I am Emperor Cartagia of the Centauri Republic.

His brow raised in confusion.

I am not quite sure what that is? a Marshmallow.. sounds icky... is it from a Marsh?

[cor_draconis]

Humans do tend to make a great deal of fuss about dragons. And I'm afraid it's not always pleasant. Draco looks interested as he reveals his title, though it also makes him somewhat cautious, as he remembers all-too-well his past experiences with royalty. Well met, Your Majesty.

I agree that marshmallows sound less than appetizing. I've yet to try one myself, but I believe they are made almost entirely of sugar... so if you don't care for sweet things, I doubt you'll want one. As for where they come from, a young lady here tells me that men create them in their factories. He grins slightly. I thought they grew on trees.

*Roger is curious to meet a dragon and shows up with a bag of marshmallows and a couple of skewers. With him is Dorothy, who is just as curious.*

Hello?

[cor_draconis]

*Draco smiles at the man and his companion* Hello! Thank you for coming. I see you've brought your own supplies -- wonderful! But tell me, where do you harvest these marshmallows? Do they grow somewhere nearby?

[rogersmith_bigo]

I'm not sure. They're usually found in grocery stores.

[r_dorothy_w]

*Dorothy looks like Roger's nuts.*

They are created in factories from sugar and other substances.

[bosco_tm]

Bosco walked out to the beach. Why not spend some time in the open air rather than at home. Diablo had his food and water. So the cop figured he'd just come out here to roast marshmallows. But stops short seeing a dragon.

Okay, maybe one of the jag offs whom he'd chased while working had him him too hard in the head and now he was seeing things. Or maybe Frankie had slipped him something. Yeah, had to be it.

OOC: *BG* I loved that movie. Draco's just awesome

[cor_draconis]

Draco gives the young man a grin, a grin that's plainly friendly, if you can look past all those teeth. "Hello there! I'm glad you could join us." The dragon reaches carefully into a bag left by another guest, plucks one marshmallow from its contents, and offers it to him on the tip of his claw. "Marshmallow? Or perhaps you'd care to make a s'more?"

Yay, another Draco fan! We love him, especially as voiced by Sean Connery. :D

[bosco_tm]

It talked! The dragon talked.

And I'm not even intoxicated. Damn...

He gave the dragon a slight smile and took the marshmallow from its claw. Claws...right, he may be a cop but there was no way in HELL he'd even think about pissing off this guy. Nu uh, no way. Not in a million years.

"Thank you"

Okay, hopefully the initial shock would wear off. Maybe...

Oh yeah, Sean Connery is just awesome. Which is why I'm throwing my Third Watch cop into all of this. hehe

[cor_draconis]

Draco looks at him with understanding, stretching his wings slightly before shifting into a seated position on the sand. "Somehow I get the feeling you don't encounter dragons on a daily basis. Well, regardless of whatever terrible legends you may have heard, I'm not about to devour you. Really. I ate six cows this morning." He lowers one yellow eye in a wink.

*grins!* Poor guy! He's handling himself better than I would though.

[_call_me_snake_]

Snake walked out on the beach. It had been years since he had a marshmallow, since before the war when he was a young man camping with his grandfather. He couldn't help the draw of the long lost taste or the chance to see a real dragon.

This is soo out of character but fellow muns thought it would be funny.

[cor_draconis]

Draco watches the man with interest, thinking he resembles some of the warriors he once knew, though his clothes are different from anything the dragon is used to seeing. He finds an extra bag of marshmallows lying nearby, and using the spade-shaped tip of his tail, pushes it towards the approaching stranger with a nod.

You look like a man who could use a marshmallow.

*g* Sometimes you just have to let them go out of character!

[_call_me_snake_]

Snake looks up to the dragon and then laughs holding up his unlit cigarette.

I was about to ask you for a light.

His eyes fall down on the bag as he pushes the toe of his boot under it and tosses it up in the air. Catching it in his hand he looks at the marshmallows.

It is odd that one could miss the taste of something they don't like to eat.

[rogersmith_bigo]

You don't like marshmallows? Hello, I'm Roger Smith. *He sticks out his hand.*
