  Sitting under the shade of a large tree, Hex watched out from the shadows. The meadow was quiet, just how Hex liked it. His tail swayed from side to side slowly as the dragon enjoyed the cool breeze. 'Ahh... peace and quiet.' He thought. Though it seemed a little too quiet for the middle of the day... perhaps everyone was taking a nap? 'As long as they aren't bugging me.' He thought with a small smile as his eyes fluttered shut.

			             Yuuyami picked her way across the stream; after seeing no crystals, she hopped onto the bank on the other side and started nosing about in the grass and flowers of the meadow. Out of the corner of her eye she saw a light purple dragon; she ignored him and resumed her search. After all, he wasn't important; finding the crystals were.

			            Hex let out a sigh as he lay there, eyes closed, listening to the light trickle of the stream nearby. The gusts of wind blew a few leaves off the tree he was under, but he paid no mind. However, what did break him from his dream-like state was a rustling nearby. Eyes darting open, Hex turned his glare to a blue, purple and red dragon that was making its way along the stream. She seemed to be fixated with something, as if she was intent on finding a certain object. Brows furrowing, Hex watched the dragon wearily, knowing that he would never be able to sleep with all the noise. In reality, however, the female dragon wasn't making much noise at all - it was just more than Hex wanted.

			            Yuuyami felt the male dragon's eyes upon her and looked up and leveled him with a cool gaze. It was as if she was telling him that he wasn't worth her time and she didn't care if she was bothering him. She then continued to search for a crystal but soon gave up with a sigh and returned to the stream. Maybe she'd have better luck with some minnows or something...

			            Catching the dragon's gaze, he kept his eyes locked with hers until she moved away. Snarling to himself, he turned away angrily. 'Who does she think she is!? Not even the courtesy to say hello...' He thought bitterly. Though he found himself looking at the dragon once more, struggling to tear his gaze away from her vibrant colours. 'Argh! This is ridiculous!! Why can't I look away?' Finally letting his curiosity get to the better of him, Hex lifted his head and asked, "What are you doing!?" He wasn't used to socializing, so his voice wasn't very loud, but he was assured the dragon would hear it.

			            "What I'm doing is of no concern of yours. Watch how to talk to me, bub." She warned, crouching down and ready to pounce on a fish. Lashing out, her paw a blur, her claws slashed the fish and flung it to the other side of the stream. Great. My luck just sucks today. She thought and swam across. Usually she wasn't this cranky, but when things went wrong or something put her in a bad mood... she made the Chromatic Dragons look angelic.

			            Hex hissed at the dragon. "I was just asking," He growled angrily. 'What is this girl's problem!?' Seeing her fail with the fish, he snickered, and shook his head, "Women..." He muttered. Deciding that he didn't want to waste anymore time on this stubborn dragon, his eyes fluttered shut once more as he tried to sleep. But he knew it was no good, because she kept on fluttering into his head. 'Why can I not stop thinking about this irritating female!?' He asked himself angrily. Storming over to the stream, he caught a fish easily in his paw, and placed it in front of the dragon. "There, take it," He muttered, walking back to his tree.

			            Wading out to shore, she blinked at the fish Hex had caught, and then at him, confused. "Uh... thanks." Yuuyami replied, nibbling away at it as her eyes roamed about. Suddenly she went very still. Could it be? YES! Bolting up and over to a rotting, partially submerged log, she clawed away at it until she was able to get what she had found; a sparkly! Turning it this way and that in her paws, she stared at how it caught the light. It was lovely, but... perhaps she ought to let the male dragon have it. After all, she was kinda in the wrong with her intrusion, and he did catch a fish for her...

			            Getting comfortable once more, Hex's jaw extended in a yawn. Seeing the female eat the fish made him smile briefly, though as soon as he realized that it had appeared, he wiped his face and dug his head into his paws. 'Grah... this is so strange. Most Wishes are too scared to even approach me, let alone accept food I offer.' Not liking all these foreign experiences, his eyes bolted open, and he knew there was no chance of him sleeping while the other dragon was around. Raising his head, he watched what she was doing. Something was shining in her paw, and it caught his curiosity. "Is that what you were looking for?" He dared to ask, hoping not to be shut down like last time.

			            "Uh-huh. I collect 'em. Ya want it?" She said, putting it in her mouth and padding over to him, dropping the crystal on a tiny patch of moss. She then got distracted by the tiny flowers poking out of the moss and started to admire their coloration and how well the moss, flowers, and crystal seemed to go with each other. So intent she was with her gaze upon it that she forgot entirely about Hex's presence.

			            Hex stared at her as if she was from another planet. "Y-you're offering me something that you obviously want and collect?" He asked in disbelief. Shaking his head, he cleared his throat and stared at the ground. "No, you keep it. Or..." He started but, feeling foolish, cut himself short. He watched her study the objects in front of her, his jaw dropping in disbelief. 'Who is this female?' Feeling impolite, he quickly blurted, "My name is Hex... by the way." Embarrassed, he looked away from the dragon.

			            Yuuyami blinked and looked up, snapping out of her zone-out. "Why not? Ya got me the fish, didn't ya? I'm Yuuyami." She sat down and watched as Hex grew more... flustered? She thought that was the right word. She bit her lip to keep from laughing at Hex's awkwardness. After all, it would be rude to laugh at someone else, wouldn't it?

			            Hex looked at her cautiously. "We can always split it," He suggested with a shrug. Knowing she had noticed his strange behavior, she could probably guess how used to socializing Hex was... not at all. Then he heard her name. 'Yuuyami...' He would never admit to the dragon how pretty he thought her name was. "A-and my name's Hex... wait, I already said that, didn't I? Ugh..." He muttered, letting out a sigh of defeat. "Look, I'm going to be honest with you... I am not used to talking to others, in case you can't tell, so I understand if you want to leave..." He said miserably, staring at the ground.

			            Yuuyami couldn't hold back her laughter anymore. It escaped in fits of giggles. Clamping her paw over her muzzle, she used her claws on her other paw to tap away at the crystal, seeking a weak point to break it apart. "Why'd I wanna leave? You're funny!" she managed to say.

			            Hex stared at the dragon in disbelief, blinking a few times. "F-funny?" He repeated in shock. He certainly didn't expect that. 'I've never been called funny before...' He thought with a small smile. Watching her try to pry it apart, Hex moved her paw gently. "Here, let me..." Clamping down on the crystal with his claws, it strained under the pressure, before finally cracking in two. He looked up at Yuuyami with a grin. "Women shouldn't get their hands dirty," He explained, trying to be a gentleman.
