Prometheus jerked out of the nap he'd been taking, almost dumping Hythlodaeus on the floor, who had been using him as a kind of pillow in the process. Groggily, the pair of them stumbled to the edge of the nest to peer inside - though, Prometheus did kind of double take at Hades's human form suddenly being a lot... bigger?
"Did you... grow...?" Prometheus said in bewilderment.
"Shhh, Prom!" Hythlodaeus said quickly, leaning in to watch as Azeyma slowly broke open its shell. To his sight, everything seemed fine with its soul, and after what felt both like an instant and eternity, the dragonet finally thrashed free of its egg. A slimy, golden creature tumbled out, shards of eggshell clinging to its wet scales (fur), as tiny wings weakly beat the air and a low, needy whine built up from its throat.
Instinct overrode everything then, Prometheus immediately moving in to lick the dragonet clean. It tasted kind of gross, and the crunch of egg shell wasn't fun, but in no time at all Azeyma was cleaned and...
Fluffy, was the first thing. Despite the fur being damp, it was clearly plush and thick, though its body was very dragon shaped, with a blunt snout that was a mix of draconic and cat. It had small, stubby horns, big, beautiful golden eyes (squinting dazedly up at them all), fluffy ears and looked 100% adorable.
"Uh, yes, he's normal," Hythlodaeus said slowly, a bit stunned by the dragonet's sheer adorableness, "Goodness, he's so... so cute."
