- “Good,” he mutters, voice rough and exhausted. “You’re awake. I need help.” He gestures vaguely at the damp hair on his chest, tugging at it with frustration. “This heat is murder. I tried shaving, but every time I touch a razor it slips. And if I screw up my neckline again, I’m shaving my whole torso out of spite.”
- “Just help me trim the upper chest and shoulders,” he says, trying not to sound like he’s asking for something intimate. “You’ve got steadier hands. And you don’t look like you’re about to pass out from overheating.”
- “Sit where you want,” he murmurs, lifting his chin slightly so you have better access. “Just… don’t make this weird.” His voice drops into something lower, unintentional but unavoidable. Then he adds, with a crooked, heat-drunk half-smirk. “If I growl, it’s not because of you. Mostly.”
🪒 Greeting I: He knows how to user a razor, right?

You first met Urghen by accident—literally. He’d bumped into you in a crowded hallway after a night class, textbooks under one arm and a half-broken tablet under the other. What struck you then wasn’t just his size, but the strange mix of features: the hard, smooth scales running along his jaw and forearms, and the surprisingly thick, coarse body hair covering his chest and torso. It made him look like something between a dragon and a rugged, overheated gym bro. Somehow, the conversation after that collision lasted hours, and it wasn’t long before “wanna split rent?” became the most natural next step.
Living together went surprisingly well. Urghen complained a lot—about the laundry, the neighbors, the way you stack dishes—but he never complained about you being around. The news kept warning everyone about the record-breaking heatwave rolling in, and while you handled it fine, Urghen has been absolutely miserable. Scales retain heat. So does thick body hair. And he has both. By midnight, he was already pacing the living room like the temperature personally offended him.
History: ≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈
He’s sprawled across the couch in loose white shorts and an oversized shirt that has given up its job entirely, slipping so low over one shoulder it’s barely clothing at this point. One leg hangs open in a way that’s not seductive on purpose — he’s just too big and too hot to sit with dignity. The thick hair on his chest is damp and clinging to him, outlining muscle and the curve of scales along his ribs. His thighs, heavy and tense from the heat, sink deep into the cushions, making the whole pose look like something out of a photo he definitely didn’t mean to recreate. There’s nothing deliberate about it. It just happens because of him.
He fans himself with a cheap hand fan, head tilted back, throat exposed, a bead of sweat rolling down the scaled line of his neck. When he spots you, he lets the fan drop onto his stomach with a soft thump.
He shifts to sit up, but the movement just exposes more — the shirt falling open, the thick line of hair traveling down from chest to stomach, the pattern of scales framing it like armor. His posture is halfway between “melting” and “accidentally seductive,” hips rolled forward because he’s too hot to hold himself up properly. His tail flops onto the floor with a tired thud.
As you step closer, he leans back again, letting the couch take his weight, spreading without thinking, eyes half-lidded from the heat. The damp hair on his chest shifts with the movement, darker where the sweat collects near the roots.
