"I'd sooner hold my breath under lava and fly through the rings of fire..." Glacier states flatly to his brother who sits across from him in the cantina.

Smoke sighs as he leans back, "Come on, it'll be fun, I promise."

"No, it'll be fun for 'you', a 'house party', hosted by my brother and his flatmate hardly sounds like my thing..." Glacier states with air quotations.

Smoke waves his hand dismissively and picks up a piece of jerky to wave at his brother, "If you don't loosen up, they'll never get that stick from your ass."

"That's an unfair observation of my character... You know I dislike... 'Social gatherings'..." Glacier provides more quotations.

Rolling his eyes, Smoke eats the jerky before reattempting his pitch.

"You could bring the Changeling, you seem comfortable-ish around her. " Smoke states noticing a flinch in his brother's demeanour.

"I appreciate the offer, but I don't feel like going to a party. That's it." Glacier tries to dodge the subject.

"Fine... You settling in okay anyway?" Smoke asks, indulging his brother's evasiveness.

Glacier tilts his head slightly, "It's not terrible, just tiring."

Smoke sighs as he finishes his lunch, standing up to stretch. "Ok, well, we need to prep, so... If you change your mind, you know where to find me."

Glacier waves to Smoke as he begins to depart, groaning as he sighs, standing up to begin heading back towards the room.

In the dorm room, Rose sat on the brown sofa, her arms outstretched wide atop the furniture. Her eyes shut tight as her head rested backwards facing the ceiling with her mouth wide open like a venus flytrap. Her legs resting on the table in front of the tv in nothing but her black bra and panties. Her body relaxed as she has indulged a comfortable deep nap since waking up this morning, it is now 3 pm. After a few minutes, Glacier walks in, closing the door louder than normal but not interrupting her slumber. Walking through he sighs, taking off his jacket and shirt before spotting the Changeling so lax on the sofa.

"That's an interesting way to fall asleep..." Glacier ponders as he gets a little closer, finding it difficult to not think her rather cute.

Out of pure curiosity and randomness, Glacier decides it's a good idea to idly stroke Rose's tongue with his tail tip very lightly.

Rose immediately closes her mouth, catching the Dragon's tail between her lips. Her body decided to move from her vertical position to be completely horizontal on the sofa as she starts to suckle on the tail tip with a satisfying smile before she hummed with delight, "...Cre~~am..."

Glacier's expression changes rapidly from curiosity to wide-eyed surprise. "Mistakes were made!" Glacier exclaims quietly as Rose lays down, forcing him to adjust in order for her to transition seamlessly, reluctant to release his tail, the sensitive tip being assaulted by her lips and tongue.

The Changeling cooed as her tongue started to move, covering the Dragon's tip in her saliva. She soon stopped but not before taking a long and hard suck on Glacier's tail. Rose, with a content smile on her face, released the tail, opening her mouth to let it rest on her tongue. At this point, Glacier was sitting on the floor, blushing bright red as he simply stayed still. Not even feeling confident enough to move his tail from her tongue as he feared waking Rose. "Note to self... Avoid sticking my tail in Rose's mouth..." Glacier whispers as he sighs.

Rose groaned aloud as her head started to move. The Changeling's body shuffled, her arms grabbing the Dragon's tail and taking it in close to her, resting on her soft chest. Her face still gleaming with a smile as a small amount of dribble starts moving down and onto the Dragon. Glacier glances behind him, pondering when his tail became an odd-shaped teddy bear. Wiggling his tail very gently, he attempts to get free from her arms and between her chest while reaching for his phone. Rose shyly giggled in her sleep, staying right where she laid spouting, "...Not...Red one."

Rolling his eyes, he attempts to wiggle against her more as he texts Sky asking for assistance. 'SHE HAS MY TAIL! HELP!', Glacier glancing back and forth between the phone and Rose, hastily awaiting a reply as he sees dots come up.

Rose sharply moved her leg onto the Dragon's tail, latching on tightly as she wraped around it. Her voice softly cooed as you could hear cute snores coming from her as she tugs harder on the tail in an attempt to not let go, "...'orry."

Glacier's expression drops further as there's no way he could wiggle out from her leg. 'That's actually really funny, I don't see what the problem is.' Glacier frowns at the phone. 'She's already sucked my tail tip, hugged it between her chest and has now coiled a leg around it... Help me.' The Dragon attempts to wiggle his tail further, now with her new positioning accidentally grinding it between her legs.

Rose stayed there, immobile for a few moments just before her hands wrapped underneath the tail and coming back over to meet her shoulders. Her posture swiftly adjusted as her body hopped over the tail, resting on top of it as her over-enthusiastic smile was drooling over the tail, taking a long lick and smacking her lips, "Salty...."

Glacier continues to be confused at Rose's sleep progression, honestly wriggling his tail again simply to see what happens. 'I mean... If you wake her, it'll be awkward, so... Maybe just stay put and don't do anything I wouldn't do.' Glacier gives the text a deadpan expression before looking back at Rose. Rose's eyes immediately widened as her insect-like wings spurted out and started flapping rapidly. Her lungs echoed across the room as she jumped up and flew towards the ceiling, sticking to it like glue as she screamed, "SNAKE!!!!!!!!!" Her facial expression is full of fear and dread followed by her rapid breathing.

Glacier blushes even more as he looks down and away from Rose, putting his phone down as he simply sends, 'Nvm, she woke up..." All the Changeling can see is Glacier sitting in front of the sofa and his tail lying where she seemingly was, asleep. Rose darted back and forth from the tail to Glacier a couple of times before she let out a sigh of relief. Yet she gasped with a flinch as to what she felt in her strange and bizarre dream to reality. She let go, retracting her wings before flipping onto one knee and standing up in front of the Dragon, her almost full naked body in view, "I am so sorry, Glacier! I tend to get a bit grabby when in contact with an object or being when asleep!"

Glacier couldn't possibly blush any redder as he's now dangerously close to Rose's particularly beautiful and more naked than normal body, "I-it's fine. I honestly didn't expect you to be like that in your sleep... In hindsight, I probably shouldn't have randomly poked your tongue with something as sensitive as a Dragon's tail." While embarrassed, Rose feels this is somewhat similar almost to how Glacier was when they met, if a tad more flushed.

The Changeling's face changed from black to red as she decides to smack her lips together, exploring her mouth. She covers her face, leaving a V shape over the two eyes as she looks at Glacier, completely embarrassed, "I remember sucking on a huge ice cream, and I can still taste the sweet and salty texture in my mouth!"

Glacier's tail wriggles as he shakes his head, "Yeah... That would have been my tail tip specifically... The tail's most sensitive part, it didn't hurt, it's just very stimulating..." Glacier blushes, finding it very difficult to look away from Rose.

Rose's fingers close to completely cover up her eyes, soon squatting on towards the floor as she groaned from the embarrassment, "Why? Why? Why? It tasted goo-?! What am I saying?!!"

"What are you saying?" Glacier asks, blushing deeper as if it were possible as the mare rambles to herself. "I can't imagine cuddling with my tail was very comfortable, even as soft as you are."

Rose now goes to the floor, huddling herself on the ground in a ball, trying not to die from the torture, "But the heat, the comfy squishyness, the scales... It's just how I act when I'm asleep!! Okay?!"

Glacier blinks as he looks at Rose oddly, blushing at the fact she actually might have found it comfy. "I-I'm not saying you cuddling my tail was an uncomfortable experience... I didn't think you, well, anyone, would find cuddling a Dragon's tail comfortable... I... Well... Wouldn't, maybe, be opposed to it, I think... Words..." Glacier glares at himself internally as he seemingly makes absolutely no sense to himself.

"I AM STILL A MARE!!" She aggressively shouts as she still hides behind her hands, "I like to cuddle my teddys in my room at home, I like cosy things! Is it wrong for me to like your tail?!"

Glacier frowns and tries to find his words again, "Well, I never said it was wrong... I meant to convey, I don't mind if you do... You like my tail?" Glacier asks randomly as if behind on the conversation.

"..." Rose paused, only nodding before she sat up, wrapping her arms around her legs as she puts her head on her knees trying to hide her blush and teary face, "Can we agree to never speak about this again if I say yes?"

"I suppose, I'm sorry... I can't seem to get out what I want to say." Glacier sighs before opting to, for some reason, pet Rose with his tail. "Lunch with my brother was annoying... He invited me to a flat party he is hosting."

The Changeling lifted her head towards the Dragon, showing her red and teary face full of embarrassment, trying so hard not to die any more than she already has from the tail-pat, "Flat party? What's a flat party? Is it where they have a party on a flat surface or is it something else?" She quickly grabbed the Dragon's tail, pulling it into her chest to hold it, occasionally playing with it.

Glacier smiles a little as he occasionally pokes her with his tail, "I suppose if I said dorm room party, you'd better understand what I mean. Smoke invited me then suggested I bring you to feel less awkward."

Rose occasionally giggled from the odd poke here and there, "What's it like? I've only been to balls and galas, never to 'dorm room' parties? Wait, how does everyone fit in one of these small rooms?!"

Glacier idly taps her chest, "I've absolutely no idea, maybe they use a few rooms on the same floor or something." Glacier shrugs as he glances at his phone.

"You don't know?" Rose tilts her head as she uses her finger to run up and down the tail, all while looking at the wriggling object. Rose gasps as she looks up at the Dragon with a glint in her eyes, "Wanna go? I mean, if you don't know and I don't know, then it's a new experience for both of us! The freedom of doing a party the way 'I' want sounds awesome!"

Glacier swallows and looks at the attractive Changeling playing with his tail, "I suppose it might not hurt if I go with you... What's the worst that could happen?"

Arriving at his brother's dorm room in the male-only tenant building, the pair already notice the party is spread across three dorms and the landing nearby. "Oh, joys..." Glacier sighs as they look into the open rooms, seeing plenty of alcohol and people drinking. Glacier wears jeans, his jacket, a thin white shirt and black shoes, not having anything party-worthy really.

Rose's face lit up with a huge grin next to the Dragon, her attire a black leather party dress that had a belt around the stomach whilst the skirt was short enough to be sexy. Her long noticeable black stockings and high heels that melded with her appearance was put together whilst her mane was all pulled to one side, covering the left of her face, "This is going to be so much fun... but it kinda smells like booze and cigarettes?"

"Not a fan of the cigarettes, but I'm definitely going to need a drink..." Glacier states heading into Smoke's room in search of his brother, the Changeling in tow. As they make their way into the room, Rose can see a few more intimate pairs getting closer, some even kissing. Glacier grabs a nearby glass of what he assumes is his and Smokes shared loved of Dragon Fire Whisky.

"This is weird, there's music, drinks, dancing, and then there's... This?" Rose tilts her head at the sight of the couples being intimate, "Do they not care who is watching them?"

Rose spots a couple making out quite passionately, "Evidently not, ah." Glacier states before finding his brother in his room. The two exchange a hug before Smoke sits back down.

"Nice to see you both decided to come." Smoke states smiling.

Rose looks at Smoke with a now glistening white smile, "Tis a pleasure to come forth for one of your communes, Smoke." Rose curtsied as she giggled, looking around the room some more, avoiding the couples.

"Likewise, hopefully, you'll make yourselves at home. The sofa should be free, I think the pair that was sitting on it went to the bathroom." Smoke chuckles.

"Thanks," Glacier states grabbing a nearby bottle before leaving the room, heading for the mentioned sofa to get comfy.

"Smoke?" Rose attempts to grabs his attention, grabbing his left hand with both of hers with a smile and a giddy yelp, "Thank yee for the invitation. Would there be any wine or some sort served here at this get together?"

Smoke obliges and hands her an entire bottle, "If you need more, see the girl in the kitchen."

Rose flinches in shock at the weight of the bottle being given to her, mostly that he gave her an entire bottle and not just a glass. She looked at the contents to notice the branded Berry Wine logo before looking at the Dragon in a gasp, shaking her head, continuing to smile, "T-Thank you... I think?"

Smoke nods and ushers her out the door and towards Glacier on the sofa, who has already finished half the whisky bottle.

Rose awkwardly sat down next to Glacier, gazing at the quite large bottle of wine that shocked her as it was one of Berry Punch's own creation, the 1st edition on the bottle proves it was one of her first products. She hummed in a confused tone, moving the bottle around in her hands trying to figure out how to drink it without a wine glass. Rose looked to her right to see the whiskey bottle in Glacier's hand was half empty already, making her eyes widen in shock, "How? Glass? You do not have a glass?"

"I honestly seem to have misplaced it." Glacier picks up the bottle and takes a mouthful, swallowing it hard, trying to numb his social anxiety.

"That is so uncouth!!" Rose shouts before looking at the wine bottle with a disgusted and curious gesture. She pouts before lifting up the bottle towards Glacier, looking away from him before grumbling just above the music, "Can you help me?"

Glacier shoots her a confused glance, shrugging as he opens it using his claw and helps her by holding the large bottle, "You know you could ask for a glass?"

"It's wine... You are supposed to drink it out of a glass... Not from the bottle..." Rose flatly stated as she lifted up the bottom whilst the Dragon held the top. She put her mouth around the lid and let the wine pour into her mouth. Quickly regretting her decision she forcefully opened her gullet as a huge flush of wine went down her throat. Rose coughed violently, make her tap her chest to let the liquid back up again. looking at the bottle she notices she drank at least a third of its contents before her face dropped, "What's it like to be intoxicated by alcohol?"

"I would not know... Dragon's hold their liquor very whell..." Glacier states mildly, finishing the bottle he was given.

"Unless you're my brother." Smoke comments, passing by with a Unicorn girl.

Rose raised an eyebrow as she turned towards Glacier, "Is that loose for a male?"

"Hmm, not quite... Least not-" Before Glacier continues, Smoke passes back by with a Gryphon female on the other side of him and into his room, "That's more the Smoke standard of 'loose'." Glacier makes air quotations, finding another bottle nearby to begin.

"A whore?" Rose asks before taking another large swig of the wine bottle.

Glacier shrugs, "My brother simply enjoys the splendid company of a perfectly able woman..." He gives her a serious glance, "Okay, noh... He is pretty much a whore."

Rose looks at the bottle with serious intent, not taking her eyes off it as she asks, "If he ever tries anything with me, even though he's your Brother, I want you to hit him... Chrysalis... I hate people like that..."

Glacier shakes his head as he takes a mouthful of his new bottle, "Regardless of the fact he's been the one protecting me since childhood... He's not attracted to Changelings. Doesn't look down on them unlike my parents, but just isn't attracted to them."

Rose laughed aloud as she looked at the Dragon before turning towards the bottle and taking a large sip, placing it down to hear the wine splash inside over the loud music, "He really doesn't know how us Changeling's work does he?" Rose states before a green magic envelops her, dissipating to show another Glacier sitting next to him. "We can be anyone or anything. And it can be very hard to tell who is the real one if they are a good actor..." Rose, acting as Glacier leans in with her hand up to her mouth whispering, "Or the eyes stay the same colour which is a dead give away..."

"Hmm, I see." Glacier raises his hand to give her a slight flick on her forehead, "Double vision is bad enough when drunk, it's just freaky to see double of me outside of a mirror... I'm not 'that' drunk yet, but it's for future reference. I imagine Changelings are very flexible then?" He chuckles leaning back in his seat.

Changing back, Rose chuckled as she sat back on the sofa, taking another swig of the wine before coughing a little from it going down the wrong hole, "I was the best out of my three Sisters in gymnastics, so I know my way around the spine."

Glacier nods drinking some more, already halfway down the new bottle. "That's pretty hot, hmm..." Glacier blinks before he derails his current train of thought, hoping Rose didn't notice.

"Hehe," Rose giggled as her cheeks went beet red before a sudden realisation came, her expression turning shocked, "Wawawawawa? My gymnastic skill is hot?" Rose got up, suddenly stumbling a little. She stabilized herself with a proud smile, taking in the last quarter of the wine bottle with a satisfying gulp, "I can make you hot by teaching you some?"

"T-that's not what I mean... Some guys find flexibility in a mare, an attractive aspect. Plus, Dragons aren't built to be too flexible, strong, but not bendy." Glacier comments, blushing to match as she did hear him.

"Ah bet ah can fand a bendy part on ya, heh heh." Rose chuckled in an uncanny tone, putting the wine bottle on a table away from the chair. Turning around, her arm brought the bottle with her, flinging it towards Glacier, making her gasp in shock.

Despite being in either the first or second stage of inebriation, Glacier is still able to, either actively or subconsciously, utilize his Draconic reflexes as he moves quite quickly to catch the wine bottle's main body halfway to the ground. His new positioning putting his face and Rose's inches apart as he finds it difficult not to blush, their eyes practically unable to stare anywhere but at each other.

"...Though reflexes are another story..." Glacier states, Rose able to feel his hot breath on her lips.

The Changeling stared deep in Glacier's golden eyes, completely absorbed in them, "and how good are they exactly?" Rose states with an open mouth, feeling as though her body was growing ever so closer.

Glacier gazes back, feeling a heat begin to rise within as he tries to stay still, "I mean... Offhand I can't quite think of much, but catching a medium-sized wine bottle from falling onto the floor at average speed might count as an ample example..." Every word Glacier spoke simply heated her lips more, despite the vivid fragrance of Dragon Whisky.

Rose's body soon started to feel the warmth, almost itching to burst out as she stayed standing in front of the Dragon. Her muzzle getting a hefty whiff of a sweet scent that made her look at Glacier's lips, "What does your drink taste like?"

"Strong with a sweet aftertaste and burning sensation as it goes down..." Glacier states, but before he could really offer her the bottle, his body decides to move on its own shifting forward ever so slightly so the pair's lips met. The connection giving her a rather potent taste of the said beverage.

Rose stayed still, blinking slowly as the sweet aftertaste filled her tastebuds, making her lose breath. The Changeling's eyes surrendered as they fell halfway that made her smile. "Is it wrong for seconds?" She cooed as her head gently pushed forwards, entwining their lips once more, her head tilting to the right as her hands instinctively wrapped around the Dragon's neck.

Glacier's heart practically stops, tasting the elegant flavour of Berry's wine from Rose's lips, which are soon revisited upon him before he can even process the first one. Opting to try and let his body speak for him, he idly returns the second kiss, closing his eyes to focus solely on the mare he has before him. Glacier rests his hands on her ample hips, just sitting there without much other intention.

Rose, her body going on instinct, decides to entwine her own tongue with Glacier's, tasting an even more potent version of the whiskey than ever before. Her body shivered in delight, not denying that fact. After a few moments, she pulled back ever so slowly, almost taunting the Dragon as her eyes opened in a seductive manner, "That was my first kiss..."

Glacier gulps slightly, his eyes now also open and staring into Rose's yet again, "I'd be lying if I didn't admit the same..." He visibly shivers, having never been in this situation, let alone this close to a mare before.

"I thought you hated me?" Rose cooed, still dreamy-eyed towards the Dragon whilst her arms wrapped around his neck, "You keep avoiding me..." Her body gradually pushing forwards, her eyes still open.

Glacier guides her to a comfortable, but still close position on the sofa, "I... I was working something out... Feeling stupid for how my mind was working..." Finding his words normally fail him, Glacier attempts to use Rose's Changeling nature to convey what he means in the form of a third, more filling gentle passionate kiss.

Rose lets go of her body, falling deep within the kiss as her eyes closed. Their entwining lips filling her with more than ecstasy. She knew what he felt for her, making it all the sweeter a taste. A quick thought suddenly entered her head, opening her eyes abruptly and pulling away from the Dragon with her hands on his chest, "Glacier... This is so... I mean, the whole situation, me and you... I'm sorry."

Rose could feel Glacier plummet slightly, least in his emotions, likely his own sense of their situation finally setting in despite the momentary bliss of not worrying about it. "Oh... Party, public... Sorry..." Glacier shift back from the previous space invasive position they were in.

Rose's shoulders stiffed as she stood from the seat, holding her arm as she walks past the Dragon, stopping next to him, "No... It's not that... I realised it wasn't the whiskey that tasted sweet..."

Glacier blushes, wondering what she might mean before his expression drops, seeing his brother leaning against the wall just down from his bedroom. "We've had enough excitement for one party... Back to our dorm?" Glacier asks, looking at Rose, trying to ignore the cold ill feeling in his stomach.

Rose sharply turned towards the Brother, her face full of dread before turning back with a cold smile, "I think you should stay for an hour or two..." Her voice seemly turning flat, "It was sweeter than I realised...."

Glacier looks back towards his brother, regretting the decision as the feeling came back double, "I think I shall indulge a walk for a bit... Till you calm down?" Glacier asks, inexperienced in how Changelings work.

Rose wandered to the door, slipping past Smoke not before saying, "Whore." Still holding her arm as the feeling inside her was almost about to explode and let loose.

Glacier soon follows after, not even glancing in Smoke's direction as both soon leave the party far behind them.
