<Most of it, yes.>

<So yeah. Can I? Look at you, I mean. And if so, when?>

<Do you need me to not be doing anything else?>

<Not at all, except I might ask you to do certain things like shift or breathe fire or fly or talk. Not more than twice each though.>

<So not indoors, anyway. That's not particularly convenient with my schedule. More likely after the baby hatches.>

<I could just start with you shifting to dragon, using fire, shifting to a third form, then back, and the rest of the staring could be indoors, wouldn't need to do more than just that outside.>

<Maybe when she hatches. I'm trying to get things squared away before then but I'll want to take her out.>

<Okay, thank you. When's she due, by the way? And also do you know of other dragons that might be willing to do it, ideally I'd get at least one per colour group ->

<In a week or two. There's a moonstone student here.>

<Cool, congratulations! And who's the student, how can I find them?>

<I can tell her where your room is if you like.>

<I'd love that, thank you!>

<You're welcome.>

<I'm gonna go get breakfast, then. Bye!>

Off he goes to the cafeteria.

It has students in it!

Anyone with interesting magic he hasn't seen yet around?

There's a very subtle thing that a few people in the room have.

Oooh a very subtle thing! Anything in common between them? Species ethnicity age gender...?

Nope, looks random.

Huh. Does one of the people he talked to yesterday have it?

Nope.

Oh well. He grabs food and, if any one table has more than one person with this thing, he'll go to it, otherwise he'll just pick one at random that looks particularly friendly and flop himself onto a seat.

They are not clustering but this one halfling looks friendly enough! She waves when Kaede sits.

"Hi! I'm Kaede, I'm new."

"...It's the middle of term."
