*arguing from behind the curtain*

Darkstalker: PART 2?

Clearsight: Yes, Darkstalker. Galaxy says we didn't get enough done.

Galaxy: Yep.

Darkstalker: What is there left to do? We have the tribes!

Galaxy: The NAMES, maybe. Or the backstories. Or family. Or personality. Honestly, there's a lot we better get done.

Whiteout: True. Much is to be finished.

*curtain opens*

Darkstalker: Fine. Let's start with the SeaWing.

Clearsight: Well, what colour scales do they have? Any ideas?

Galaxy: *shrugs* I'm not supposed to help you guys.

Darkstalker: Not green like Fathom, traitor. Or purple like Indigo, idiot. So... blue.

Whiteout: All shares the colour called blue. A change, perhaps.

*silence*

Galaxy: ...Can someone please explain?

Clearsight: She thinks that too many SeaWings are blue. That we should try another colour. I agree, Whiteout.

Darkstalker: But... what other colours can there be?

Galaxy: Well, you could do variations of the colours, like grey-green, or pale purple.

Clearsight: What about pale grey-green? It sounds like a really pretty colour.

Whiteout: It's of interest.

Darkstalker: ...Fine. It's fine.

Clearsight: Great! That'll help us decide the name.

Darkstalker: *Makes iPad poof out of nowhere and searches up SeaWing names* hm...

Galaxy: Any good ones?

Whiteout: *looks over Darkstalker's shoulder* not many of interest.

Darkstalker: What gender?

Clearsight: Female, let's say. 

Whiteout: Axolotl!

Darkstalker: Axe-o-what now?

Whiteout: Axolotl

Darkstalker: That's too hard to pronounce, and isn't there already a scavenger with that name?

Clearsight: There's a scavenger with every name. C'mon, Darkstalker. It's unique!

Darkstalker: Why did I agree to this? I'm outnumbered in every decision!

Galaxy: *shrugs* you didn't have a choice.

Galaxy: And you guys better talk fast. We don't have long to come up with another name.

Darkstalker: Okay. Clearsight, what are SilkWings named after?

Clearsight: Colours, mostly. But then there's ones that are chilling with random names that don't mean anything like Io, or two words that should not go together that end up smushed together like Swordtail. Then some are named after butterflies. Honestly, I don't think anyone knows for sure.

Whiteout: Colour would be of little effort.

Galaxy: Finally, one that makes sense! Sure, then let's name them after a colour.

Darkstalker: *talon raised, ready to type on iPad* What gender?

Clearsight: Let's go with male.

Darkstalker: Okay... let's see here

Clearsight: Tiger.

Darkstalker: Tiger? Aren't SilkWing's weak and are only good at following orders? Plus, weren't we doing colours? Let's do Copper.

Clearsight: Where'd you get that from? A HiveWing's Outdated and Wrong Guide to SilkWings? And Copper isn't a colour either. I want to show dragons a different side of SilkWings. Tiger should be an assassin.

Darkstalker: *immediately* I'm in.

Galaxy: But weren't you just...?

Clearsight: *rolls eyes* anything about an assassin and he's in.

Whiteout: He cheers for the pain. Odd, he is.

Galaxy: Anyway, we're FINALLY done the names. See you next time, everyone!
