"Well....they're agreement allows duels to settled arguments," he'd say with a sigh. "So, not all the fighting has stopped, but at least it's not a war anymore," he knew there were some who hated the peace, but they hadn't tried anything yet.

He'd smile. "Its ok, its actually really nice being able to talk about it, plus....well I'd say were becoming friends, I think it's fair to ask about things." He'd take a sip of his drink. "Things with the other young clan members are still....weird, so it's nice to talk to someone my age."

The half dragon would nod. "Yeah, I learned to bake and cook when I was young," he'd say with a smile. "I made a pretty big loaf, so there's plenty of it, enough so you can take some home."

Seyyal laughed. "I think I was supposed to learn to bake and all that but seems like that wasn't my destiny after all. Otherwise I'd have found a magic spoon or something instead of swords."

Now that was an amusing thought. Adventures in fantastical cooking. But no, that wasn't for her. She was an adventurer at heart.

"Oh, yeah feel free to consider me a friend. Sure. I'd like to think I'm reasonably social enough to help you make more friends too if you're interested. But you can't spar with everyone. Need some diversity so you don't end up with only fighty types around you."

He'd chuckle. "Maybe I'll learn to shift my sword into a spoon," he'd grin, "a magic spoon that'll make food taste amazing." That was an amusing thought, he could only imagine what his family would think of that.

"Oh I know,' he'd say with a tiny laugh, "I know not everyone liked to sparr and fight." He imagined the world would be really weird if everyone liked to fight. "I'm not going to challenge everyone I meet to a fight," he'd say with a chuckle.

The half dragon would take a bite of his food, eating it before consuming. "Thank you, I'd appreciate a little help, social stuff, or all seems a bit harder and more complicated than fighting."

Seyyal laughed again, imagining wielding a magical spoon. Now that she thought about it, weirder things than that weren't exactly uncommon here.

"It's not really that much harder than fighting. But you definitely have to find a way to relax yourself or you'll come across way too defensive or unapproachable," she replied as she experimentally tried some of the other food there on the table.

"It does help some if you try not to worry too much about what the other people are thinking. That's a neverending maze of a trap. Most people are generally honest enough or you can see pretty easily if there's something they don't want to talk about."

He'd him in thought, taking in her advice, it all seemed good. "Yeah, I don't want to worry all the time," he'd chuckle, "I imagine that wouldn't really be healthy." He didn't want to end up a nervous wreck, especially since he was finally making friends.

"Playing piano helps me relax a lot, writing music," that's usually what he went to when he was feeling stressed. "I just...y'know, don't want to always rely on it."

His left hand would go up, rubbing a spot just behind his left eyebrow. "So....the people here...there generally ok with half dragons?" he'd ask, "the teachers say they are, but I still kinda wanted to ask a student about it."

"Oh yeah, people here are pretty much fine with just about everything it seems like. Kind of crazy really," she shook her head slightly as she put her utensils down for the moment.

"It takes some getting used to for sure. Where I come from it's mostly just... humans. There's a lot of people here that could just destroy me without much effort at all." She didn't seem too embarrassed or scared about that at this point though. It was mostly just a fact. And she knew her limits.

He'd hum in thought, nodding. "That's good," it was at least one thing he wouldn't have to worry about, or at least he'll worry about it a tiny bit less.

The half dragon would chuckle a tiny bit. "We'll you've beaten one half of a dragon at least," he'd say with a smile. "Though I do just look like a human with horns."

Arno would finish his food. "Thank you," he'd smile, "its good talking to a friend about all this."

Seyyal shook her head. "No I should be thanking you for the meal. And you're not allowed to tell me I beat you. It was a good fight and I'm betting you could win against me."


"Maybe." She added with a grin. "I'm not gonna sit here and blow smoke up your butt, but I do have a pretty good idea what you can do. Friends don't let friends get in over their heads but you're pretty good."

She slid her plate away and picked up her cup to take a nice long swig from it.

He couldn't help but grin too, even blushing a tiny bit. "I'm happy you liked the food, and I'm always up for sparring again, and y'know...just hanging out like we are now."

Arno was happy they were past the awkwardness from earlier. He was actually lowkey proud that he'd managed to get through it all.

"You can take the leftovers home, I'll wrap it up for you when you're ready," it was odd really, wasn't that long ago when him and his parents were nomadic and didn't have much food to spare. "You wanna do this again sometime?" he enjoyed it, despite the early awkwardness.

"You sure you don't want at least some of the leftovers? It's only fair." She didn't feel right just taking all the food without at least trying to let Arno keep some. After all, she wasn't the one who had spent all that time cooking.

"And sure, we can do something like this again. But maybe we try something a little less fancy and with a few more people around? Can't have you always staying here in the palace all the time, right?"
