SIX // That time of the... year.

[wavewalker]

A: PHONE/ACTION FOR HOUSEHOLD [ There's a clatter as the phone is knocked off the hook, likely by a sweeping tail ] -ot in the mood, woman. Gods damn it, why are you a drone again?

[ The drone woman says something, her tone scolding. Ian snarls ] No, will not go outside! I spend all of my godsdamned time outside! If you think for one second that I'm going to sleep in the dog house, then you are sadly mistaken.

[ Suddenly! There's a thwack- someone got hit with the newspaper again ] That does it-- Cyuss! Get in here and control this woman or I will hurt her!

B: THE PARK [ Ian can be found a number of places around the park, doing a number of things. Chiefly, he's looking rather grumpy. He scowls at everything, and does his best to avoid people if he can.

He can be found in a tree, scowling. In an open area, trying to work on his swordplay, also scowling. For the sake of sheer distraction, he might even hunt down some of the local wildlife, taking out a bird or squirrel with powerful claws. Rest assured, he's scowling while he does so. ]

((ooc; You know what spring means! It means mating season for your local Raptori. But since there are no lady Raptori in Mayfield, Ian is just irritable. Very irritable.))

Damn it, why do I have to be one to always do this?!

[It's his day off, so he's pretty pissed off at having to spend it with his "wife", too. But he'll drag her off to the basement and lock it. When he returns, though, he kind of glares at Ian.]

I hate that thing. Woman is a real pain in the ass.

[wavewalker]

Because she actually listens to you.

[ He glares right back. ]

That makes two of us.

What makes you think she listens to me?! I have to drag her everywhere, man. That one girl's a drone again, too. I'm beginning to think it might be better to just set up a tent outside.

...but what's up with you? Usually you ignore her just fine.

[wavewalker]

At least she acknowledges the fact that you can speak. If she hits me with that newspaper one more time...

[ a pause, and he lets out an exasperated sigh ]

I'm just... not in the mood to be treated like a pet.

[striped-biceps.livejournal.com]

Why? What's wrong? [Look. Even Cyuss can tell something's wrong, and Ian is kinda like one of his bros.] Kind of a weird time to get angry about it.

[wavewalker]

There is nothing-- [ he stops, looking annoyed with himself. ] Gods damn it, I didn't realize it was spring already.

[striped-biceps.livejournal.com]

Don't lizards like warm weather, though?

[wavewalker]

That's not what I mean, Cyuss. [ he just sort of massages his temples ] This is the time of year when Raptori mate.

[striped-biceps.livejournal.com]

Are you serious? ...Wait, is that what you're called? Raptori?

[wavewalker]

[ rapidly. losing. patience. ] Yes, Cyuss.

[striped-biceps.livejournal.com]

Huh. ...There's actually a time of year for that stuff? ...Don't you get lonely the rest of the year?

[wavewalker]

Look, I'm really, really not in the mood for your questions right now.

[striped-biceps.livejournal.com]

Then go somewhere else. I'm gonna cook dinner. What do you want tonight?

[wavewalker]

I really don't care. I doubt I'll be back in time for dinner anyway.

I need to get away from the drones.

[striped-biceps.livejournal.com]

Suit yourself! That's more for me, anyways.

...but I'll put some in the fridge for you to reheat when you get back. Don't let it go to waste.
