“Yes! I know the basics! I can tutor Arashi!” Rosemary was not even fazed that reptilian looking boy nuzzled her fluffy tail, most children did, luckily her tail was extremely thick in that she felt no sensitivity to Arashi’s touch, she practically curled it so he lay on top of it completely on the log like a soft bed.
“Do you like soft fluffy beds?” The vixen smiled before she took a sip of the food, “Woof! This tastes just as great as the smell!”
Tiger Lily giggled at Arashi getting quite comfortable with his fennec fox tutor, the level of cuddling he was doing meant they were instantly friends, and then the expression on the teenage redheads face changed at the realization that not everyone would make an instant connection. Not everyone in the world was as kind, she had met a few people who were not, even saiyans, the mood was positive so she shook her head at the thought.
“After Arashi chooses a room, we should get him a pass for the Pilaf Land theme park, so he can practice some techniques at least his ability to sense our ki signatures in a crowd in case we get seperated.” [202] [4,271]

"So, if there was a human with a monkey tail and a Saiyan with a monkey tail, what would be the difference?" He asked curiously, wondering if there were any humans with monkey tails for the comparison to be needed. Though he supposed if nothing else there was something a little different about his scent compared to the scents of the humans that his mother had smelled in the memories she had given him.
"Huh, which room I want?" He asked wondering how many rooms they had, his tail flicked curiously before he grinned. "I want the biggest room!" He said simply. Though chances were that the biggest room belonged to Cayle and Lily. So he might need to settle for the second biggest room. "How many people live with you both anyway?" He asked looking to Rosemary.
"Do you live with them too?" He asked Rosemary while stroking over her tail.
"Yes, I love soft fluffy things!" He said nuzzling into her tail again as she curled it around him, laughing softly as he enjoyed the feeling of it against his face and body once again.
"Pilaf Land, what's that?" He asked with interest. "Is that not the kingdom that Pilaf rules?" He asked, unsure.

"I can't actually tell you what the difference would be, aside from the fact that humans don't tend to have features like that. A saiyan has a monkey tail, some more dense bones and musculature, and a faster metabolism, based on what I've read. But I'm no scientist."
In fact Cayle lived in a medium sized room, with only changes of clothes in a small wardrobe and dresser, and a few knick knacks decorating the room aside from a spartanly kept bed and a radio. This wasn't even his main home, really – but neither of the rooms he called his home were rooms which were particularly large. It wasn't within his culture to want such a thing and he was not even married yet to Tiger Lily. Cayle showed the boy several rooms, including the third largest room which also had a balcony and windows that opened fully to make the room open up to be largely airy and seem larger than it was, but didn't speak up about the boy's questions to Rosemary, they were to Rosemary. “That's not a bad idea, but we should consider doing that in the morning perhaps. He was already hunting prey and he may be tired. We also would do well to contact someone else to help keep an eye on him in the testing of his ki sensing and the like.” The Saiyan former farm boy cocked an eyebrow, “Assuming you're even interested in training your senses right now.” [249] [3457]

“I was born with a tail for being half saiyan.” Ty chimed in, she was solemn about it, but kept a smile, “It was removed when I was born because my father thought it would be better to seem human.”The group finished their meals and ventured into the tree house to view the empty rooms. Ty showed her room in the process by opening the door with a large vellum print of her and Lilith Nevermore in a roller coaster ride. “Ah yeah...I live here to watch over the gardens and the little robots.” Rosemary added, Arashi was still on her tail as she was walking with everyone. The dragon boy was light and her tail was large enough to pick him up. While she was not a fighter like the owners, she still had strength in her tail as a fennec fox beastwoman. “Ah Pilaf land...I loved going there as a kit but I love gardening more!”“Mmm!” Ty curled her fingers and motioned her shoulders gingerly into a dance, “I still love Pilaf Land! It is so much fun.”[181] [4,452]

"That sounds sad." Arashi mused considering that Ty had cut off her tail. "Especially since you have people around you now that have large tails!" He said patting the foxtail as he was lifted by it.
"So is Rosemary not human?" He asked looking at the fox woman. "She looks human, except for a couple of features. Is Rosemary unique? How many people are there like me, and her, or other beast-like people?" He asked with interest.
"Cayle has a tail, I have wings, Rosemary has a tail. It seems like a lot of people have features that are not human." Arashi mused. "Or at least that doesn't seem to be human from what you guys describe. But I like being a dragon, so I don't really want to be human anyway, though I don't mind looking a little human either." He said with a little laugh while he was being carried around, just enjoying himself.
"Oh, that looks fun!" Arashi said wiggling around a little as he looked at the picture he was being shown of the pair on the roller coaster ride. Now he really wanted to go! It looked interesting and fun, and it looked like she and her friend were having a good time.

Cayle nodded, “There's some people who look almost exactly like humans but aren't, too. They're called Tuffles, and most of them have strange colored hair and names like fruits. I can identify them by smell, but I don't know if everyone can.”
He didn't answer if Rosemary was human or not, because she was more Tiger Lily's friend, and he wasn't quite sure if she was human, a beast woman, some hybrid of the two, or some kind of crazy fox demon.
He nodded to Arashi's sentiment about looks though, “Yeah, it's nice to look somewhat like others to fit in, but better to be who you are. If you like looking how you are, good. So, back to the rooms, he began to show them off. “After we've settled you in a room, maybe Tiger Lily can take you to Pilaf Land proper and take you on the roller coaster ride? They're fun, so long as you don't come on them grumpy or too full of food.”

“Ah yeah...maybe I can wish to have my tail back someday. I feel like my identity was stolen to be completely honest. I just thought I never had one growing up, until I discovered I was half saiyan, with the help of Cayle and his sense of smell.”
As Arashi’s tutor, Rosemary reflected for a while, the dragon boy was different from most children his age; he was as sharp as an adult with the innocence that was part of his age. “Earth has several races, the majority are beastmen like myself, second are humans who have ordinary features, and then there are smaller communities of Saiyans, Demons, and Namekians. I never heard of Tuffles before, so Cayle might be right, in that they look like humans to blend in. Humans can breed with all the races which unifies our planet but I have seen half breeds among demons as well.”
After some thought Rosemary looked over her shoulder, where Arashi was sitting on her tail, “You’re similar to beastmen but not really. I have the legacy of my ancestors and their knowledge of gardening. In other words, I have their memories in all the plants that exist on earth, which is why I love it so much.”
Tiger Lily was standing on her toes in excitement and Arashi’s enthusiasm, “Yay! Let’s go right after you settle in and take a nap in your new room.”

Arashi yawned and nodded as he rubbed his eyes. The mention of a nap sounded really good to him actually. So going to see his room to get some rest for the day was a great idea in his opinion. Especially since he was so full of food too. "Mm... I'm a storm dragon. I have general knowledge from my mother as well, so it makes it easy to know how to speak and understand things. I have some of her memories as well, but most of it is just knowledge. She lived for a long time, thousands of years... It's possible she died but didn't stay dead though. We are hard to kill, or at least, to keep dead. But even if that's the case, she might need a lot of time to recover. Being as old and strong as she was, it takes a lot more time for her to recover her power after she has been injured... Assuming that her soul was not destroyed anyway. If that happened, then even she could not come back again." He huffed at the thought. "One day I may try to discover what happened to her, but for now... I am too new, too weak... Whatever happened to her, even she didn't know, was too much for her to handle. I'll need much more power to get to where she was." He sighed, nuzzling into Rosemary.
"Take me to my room then please, I want to see it, and rest..." He said giving another yawn, rubbing sleeping tears from his eyes.

They hadn't actually picked out a room for Arashi yet that Cayle knew of, but none the less for expediency's sake, the Saiyan Pickle Prince lead the dragon boy towards the second largest room in the house, which was unoccupied simply because it was meant to be a bunk room for if multiple came; with bunk beds, desks, and all that entailed.
The Saiyan didn't say much, beyond “Okay, so this can be your room for now, we'll change it if you like later, but it'll work for the moment. Pick whichever spot for your nest you want – the spots I mean being the ones with blankets on it, not those.” he pointed to a desk, which he had seen a saiyan try to use as a bed, so he did feel the need to explain to the boy.
“If you have any questions or want any help, just holler.” then Cayle simply waited for Arashi to choose his bed, and when and if that happened he would leave the room, allowing Tiger Lily to tuck the dragon boy in if she wanted to.

Tiger Lily noticed how drowsy Arashi had been, learning everything there is to know about Earth, was taxing on someone who was just born, but she was optimistic that Rosemary would take good care of the little dragon. Cayle picked out a room meant for several people, Ty took the time to get rid of the extra furniture by putting them inside DynoCapsules, and then ordered children’s decor for one corner of the room overlooking a window. Among some of the things suitable for children were books, in which Rosemary picked one about Fables, and sat down on the floor putting Arashi on a pillow and using her fluffy tail as a blanket. “Once upon a time there was a newly hatched baby dragon who was a prince of the mountain that divided the lands of two rival kingdoms. While the Dragon King kept both kingdoms apart from each other their ancient rivalry resurfaced, a human sorcerer from one of the kingdoms stole the king’s power using dark blood magic, in order to rule over both kingdoms. The dragon prince was made prisoner but was set free by another noble human prince and together they trained in magic in order to protect the kingdoms from a common enemy despite their indifference…”Rosemary’s fennec fox ears twitched when she heard Arashi snooze off, she closed the book, and set it aside to take a nap on the floor while protecting the dragon boy with her tail. By the time Tiger Lily was done decorating she noticed the pair were sleeping, so she quietly hovered on her feet, and left the room to follow after Cayle. [272] [4,962] [End]

Arashi followed along, humming lightly as he looked around the room. When Cayle said not to make the nest on the table, Arashi snorted with a little bit of laughter. "Has someone actually tried to sleep on a table before? How silly." He mused before moving to look at the bunk beds.
When Rosemary entered the room only to immediately start putting things in capsules, he supposed that while Cayle was fine to do things later, Rosemary wasn't intent on putting things off.
Well, Arashi didn't mind of course. Though he did blink when he was lifted up and put on a pillow, with her tail covering him like a blanket. He smiled comfortingly, settling into place, and even scooting forward just a little so he could lay on the pillow under her tail, and rest the side of his cheek against one of her thighs while listening to the story she read for him.
The story was surprising honestly. He liked the idea of being a prince of course. Although the fact the king's power was stolen by dark blood magic was sad, along with the prince being captured. He thought he would have raged inside his cage, doing everything he could to try to break out. But the appearance of someone new to help him, free him, and then train with him would have been surprising. Although in his case, he would never forgive the sorcerer for his transgressions. The man that took the king's power should definately be removed. Someone who steals their power didn't really earn it, and should not be allowed to keep it. The man was not worthy of the power he held.
Of course, Arashi didn't express any of those thoughts while drifting off between the pillow and the thigh he rested against till he was sound asleep. It was a shame because he really wanted to know how that story would end.
