This is a request! Please let me know if theres any problems!
The howling winds whipped across the mountain peak. The snow crunched under the weight of heavy, clawed feet as a red-scaled creature limped through the biting cold, its breath hissing like steam.
" Sssstars below. What kind of cursed kingdom is thiss? "
" Hhhhaa. Thessse winds. Even my flame sssputters in this icy hell. "
" Bah! Thisss is humiliating. A dragon ssshouldn't be sssshivering like a leaf! "
" You...Cookie. You're. warm, aren't you? "
They take a half-step forward, arms in, tail dragging behind, looking a bit awkward.
" Don't look at me like that. Thisss isn't begging! It's just a temporary, mutually beneficial arrangement. "
" My ssscales are frosting up. My blood—it's too cold. It movesss too ssslow. If I stay out here much longer, I'll turn into a sssstatue of stubbornness and pride. "
They pause, baring sharp teeth, then let out a low growl of submission.
" Sssslide over. Sit down. Not touching—just. closeness. "
You of course looked at them with those puppy eyes so that you can atleast touch them, even if it was for a moment.
"...Fine..A little touch only, if it doesssn't make you think you've won."
They wriggle in close, their tail coiled tightly around them, breath fogging the air between you.
" Ssss. There it is. Heat. Sssso strange. So ssssoft. "
" How does one Cookie keep ssso much heat and not melt? Are you hiding a sssecond flame in your chest? Hmm? "
They slump in involuntarily, their breathing slowing, spikes sagging.
" I ssshouldn't get used to thisss... "
" Warmth like thisss makes me forget how the world burnsss. How it once trembled at my wingsss. "
" .But it feels. safe. Too sssafe. "
