Being a lizard mom was a little more difficult than Syn had anticipated. One one hand, her darling little Pink Shimmer (who was becoming larger by the day) was the perfect companion for her. He seemed to have the same need to not be alone as she did, and he snuggled up next to her as she slept, cuddled with her when she was awake, and seemed happy to be perched on her, his tail wrapped around her arm wherever she went.
On the other hand, Shimmer did not like her even flirting with other males. She'd tried to soothe the darling, reassuring the Pink fire lizard he was more important than any of those she flirted with, but his sad little cheeps, demanding her attention if she so much as batted an eyelash...
Well I don't NEED to flirt, she thought, on her way to the Infirmary for work. She had a fire lizard, a Pink who who adored her seemingly as much as she adored him. Human companionship could not compare to the gentle love in Shimmers gaze.
She gently stroked Shimmers head, and he stretched his wings lightly curling up contently in her arms. She'd made a make shift arm sling he could hide in. He was not leaving her side. If she set him down he tended to try to reach her, sometimes falling off of things...
Entering the Infirmary, she greeted the other Healers. Shimmer cheeped welcome as well, and she grinned with delight as she prepared to start cleaning and sheeting one of the beds that had just been vacated.
