"Blueness" - Edouard Kock

This was something that no sane dragon was expecting. Not even Mkima, 
who in relation to being 'sane', is to the left and up a little. Bromus 
was quiet. That alone should cause the world to worry. Sulpher frowned, as 
per usual when there is something she doesn't understand. She frowns a 
lot. Drask gave a soft 'erf'. He did this when, well, he does it a lot. 
Miktar was standing there, not saying anything, lower jaw rubbing against 
his toes. Ed gave the group, who had been lounging in the livingroom till 
his arrival, a strange and wry smile. 

"Okay, okay...," Ed waves his hands in the air, "... so I made a snap 
decision, and got blue streaks in my hair. Whats so wierd about that?". 
Everyone remained quiet. Bromus, in all his infinite wisdom, muttered "well 
nothing I guess, if you want to look like something out of that Anime 
movie 'All purpose cultural cat girl Nuku Nuku'..". Miktar closed his eyes 
and gritted his teeth (after the lenghtly process of closing his mouth), 
hoping that Ed wouldn't damage to much of the room. Nothing happened. Upon 
opening his eyes, he saw that Ed wasn't tearing the room apart, but was, in 
fact, smiling. Miktar was even more baffled by this, than the sudden 
colour change of bits of Ed's head warming fur.

"Yeah, thats kinda what I was thinking. But I still don't feel like I can 
move really fast and then there will be this background of stripes.", Ed 
mutters while walking over to where Miktar is standing. "And what do you 
think, big guy?" he askes the dragon. "Its, erm...," Miktar's mind races 
as he trys to think of something to say, "...nice, Ed." This was not the 
ideal response, but it would have to do for now. "You're not just saying 
that because I have a tendency to bite you when Im angry, are you?", Ed 
remarks, leaning against the worried Dragon. "No...well...", Miktar 
sutters, looking towards the others for assistance. Mkima steps forward.

"Ed, I've been doing some checks, and it appears that the increase of 
blue in your..ahem...fur, has caused a slight increase of Rak in your karma." 
Mkima mutters. "And thats a good thing, I presume?", Ed chuckles. Mkima 
nods and flops down on the beanbag. "Well then, if there are no objections, 
I shall start playing 'The Nomad Soul' on my pc.", Ed mutters, walking over 
to his pc. "Wait, Ed. Can we play Quake 3? I was practising on Bhellioms pc 
all day...", Sulpher remarks as she jumps up from the couch. "Errr, sure..", 
Ed mutters, starting Quake 3. He didn't know that Sulpher even liked pc games. 
He also didn't know, that he would lose 31 to -15 to her in that game.
