Being here for so long before Emm and Kizzy got here, Fifi already had tons of friends. Being older, she was also probably busy doing grown kid things. That meant these little moments were a treat.

How did one treat a treat? You flopped down onto your friend's lap with an arm slung around her shoulder, duh.

"I won't. I heard it can send you to the Hospital Wing like that." She said, snapping her fingers to get the point across. Deadly tree; fascinating, deadly tree.

Artemis was equally interested in her friend. The dragon climbed up onto Emm's lap then nestled itself between the pair. "Sure you can! He's super friendly sorta mostly a lot of the time." Auntie Jessa had seen to that, no matter how much she'd insisted on getting a vicious dragon. The little girl suspected her mother had a lot to do with the final product. "Me and Kizzy are trying to teach him to fly. He's not really enjoying that but he HAS to."

Emmerson reached over to gather some of Phoebe's hair. "What're you doing out here?" She asked, beginning a mostly neat braid.
Wow, giant toddler in her lap. Phoebe wrapped her arms around Emm and allowed the dragon to worm his way in between them. It was like being cuddled by a pointy puppy, not quite soft but still cute enough to ignore the discomfort. She had to shift around a good bit to keep from spilling Emm back onto the ground, but she eventually found a position that wasn't comfortable but was mostly safe.

"I've never seen it send anyone to the Hospital Wing, but I can see exactly how it might happen. Seems a pretty odd thing to keep on the grounds for funsies. They lock up the poisonous and biting plants in the greenhouses but keep the Murder Tree out here in the open." But there was a trick to it, right? She'd heard there was a way to make it settle down, and that might be worth the price of admission.

She dropped a hand to pet the little dragon. "You know he really hurt Joshy. Have you said anything to him about that?" As for why she was out there, the answer should be obvious. She was avoiding real work.
