[ And Affogato will have his door open for him at the top of the steps. The room is as lavish as it can be, decorated in purples and blacks..... and there is, quite frankly, an obscene amount of jewelry (very expensive very real) and the like on the floor in a not-quite-small treasure pile. On top of it are a few baby dragons, either sleeping or playing in it, Pearl having taken his place as Lord of This Room at the top.

And the dragon-tailed man is hard to not spot, said tail curled around the pile as he sits near it, keeping it warm while he diligently works a pestle and mortar to carefully grind some powder together. He's dressed in furs still to beat the creeping cold and ... he's talking to the children because he really didn't expect Will that fast. ]

I understand it's tasty but take it out of your mouth, I will not have you choking on something in my room. I would never hear the end of it from that toadlette. Pearl, darling, if you are to be King you must discipline your subjects.

[ The lazy baby yawns instead and stretches out. ]
