[font=Georgia][size=4]Haven stayed like that. Though he was a narcissist in most senses and did his best not to care for others, he couldn't help but feel empathy for those similar to him in the sense that both he and Shade shared bad situations, Shade's most likely being worse. He refused to let go until Shade told him to do so and would loyally stay put until that moment.
"Don't worry about explaining yourself right now, okay? We can talk about that later. You just tell me when you want me to meet those fellows no matter how messed up they seem to be. I mean, heck, they didn't even call you by your name. Now that I think of it though... Is Shade your name? Because that's a really unfortunate name if your parents named you that-"[/font][/size]

“Okay. And their not that bad, really, their trying to help, I’m just more of a burden than anything. It’s not like my... Illness is very common or anything.” Shade was quiet for a moment after that.
“Kind of. I don’t know what my parents named, or anything about them really. My earliest memories are waking up in some ruins in the Tangeled Woods with no memories. And I’ve just... Always been called Shade.” He wasn’t quite ready to tell Haven that he named himself after the dark force that he had worshipped before he came to this clan.[/center]

[font=Georgia][size=4]"Seems we both just got names out of the blue," Haven chuckled. Haven had absolutely no idea how to comfort Shade. Zero. Zip. Nada. Nothing. He ended up falling into the most awkward silence ever, unsure of what to do at all. He knew hugs were supposed to work and stuff but what was he supposed to do during the hug?! Nobody had ever taught him how to comfort someone! He was too good for that! He remembered seeing dragons giving a kiss that would make it better? Would that make it better? Well it wasn't like he could give him tea or something which was another remedy he had heard of. Shade didn't seem like the type to be comforted by stealing either as Shade was. He didn't really have anything on him either. He had multiple stashes of stuff all over Sornieth but he never remembered what exactly it was that he kept in those stashes. He knew it was all stolen though so there probably had to be a stuffed animal among them. Then again, a kiss from a self-diagnosed god? Surely that couldn't hurt him... Could it?
Haven came to a loss of what to do and just bopped his snoot against Shade's mask, as if that would do anything other than confuse Shade. He obviously had no idea what a kiss was so... How the heck was he a flirt in the first place if he couldn't even kiss?! Haven wouldn't know it at the time, but later he would realize how completely idiotic he was and how little he knew of friends, mates and other dragons in general.[/font][/size]

In the time between the awkward silence and the ‘kiss’, Shade was worriedly thinking about if they were taking to long. Surely at some point either Olive or Oasis would come see why they hadn’t shown up yet. Right? Maybe they would be to busy talking to really think about that. It didn’t seem amazingly likely, but hey, a lot of Shade’s life at the moment was built on hope.
When Haven bopped his mask, his train a thought was suddenly derailed by a train of confusion. Was this another sign of affection? He had only ever watched stuff like that from a distance, so if this was some common thing, he had no idea. Shade wasn’t sure if he should blush or ask Haven if he was alright.[/center]

[font=Georgia][size=4]Haven gave Shade an odd smile. The spiral had no idea what he was doing or what was happening. “Uhh wanna go meet those dragons now?”[/font][/size]

"Uh, yeah sure." Shade grinned awkwardly back, trying to figure out how to untangle himself from Haven.[/center]

[font=Georgia][size=4]Haven pulled himself off of Shade and smoothed out the leaves attached to him. He smiled at Shade, hoping he provided some comfort, even if it was the bare minimum.[/font][/size]

Even if he still had things to sort out with Haven, Shade felt much better now. With one last look at Haven, he rounded the corner into the sightline of Oasis and Olive.
"Hey guys."

"Ah, hello Haven. Olive was just telling me about the guest you brought." He turned, acknowledging Haven.
"It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Oasis, and I'm the sort of leader of this little place." Oasis tried to look friendly, while Olive remained silent, not looking away from Haven for a moment.[/center]

[font=Georgia][size=4]Haven gave a wide grin to the two dragons in front of him, switching gears almost immediately. "Why hello there! It's a pleasure to meet you both. As you already seem to know, the name's Haven," Haven stated. "And [i]boy oh bOY[/i] are you in luck! I'm the best thing you'll ever meet so savor it you plebians-" Oh god that's the narcissism.[/font][/size]

Stress lines where already forming under Oasis’ eyes, as if already preparing for the days to come.
“Yes, I’m sure we are.” He was trying, but it was clear that Oasis didn’t truly believe this.

Olive, seemingly making the smart choice, opted out of this conversation by vanishing up into the trees. Whether he was actually gone or just watching from a distance was unknown.[/center]
