Icey contuned to pack the box . She looked over at the black dragon now. She gave him a smile as she got ready to tape the top of the box. Then she looked at her hands when she heard a tearing sound.She gave a soft sigh when she noticed that one of her claws had ripped threw her glove. She glanced at the dragon with a slightly embressed look on her face. She then stopped packing for a second while she took her gloves off. Afterall there was no point in were them now. She did not realy like to show her claws to anyone but did when she did not have a choice. It was not that she did not like her claws it was just that she was afraid that they might hurt someone if she was not careful. She more then likely did not really have to worry about that with the dragon though.

Blake heard the sound of tearing fabric, turning and noticing her glove and her claws. The dragon smiled, walking over and gently taking her hand. "You need stronger gloves if you're going to be hiding your claws like that. I'm normally not the best when it comes to fabrics but I think I could put something together." He did enjoy a challenge, and it would give him a good excuse to go see Rose. She could sew anything, from little plush dolls, quilts, to stitching up a patient in surgery.

Icey smiled as she noticed the dragon walking over to her. She gave a slight smile when he took her hand. She could feel herself getting slightly embarrassed. She really was not used to others looking at her claws. The good thing was that she was really good at hiding it though. She had never really though about getting stronger gloves. She always thought that they would get her hands too hot. Though gloves did not do her any good if she was going to tear them when she was doing things.’’ I never really thought of using stronger gloves. Hummmm this is actually not the first pair of gloves I ripped. Really you do not have to do that.’’ she said with a smile. He did not have to waste his time helping her. From the way it looked in his art room he kept pretty busy.

"It's no bother. Heh, I know I'm not the best with that sort of stuff so I'm going to be getting a little help. I'll just explain what's needed, the size, and Rose will be able to handle it. She's sort of my aunt, it won't be a problem. The only problem I'll have is figuring out a way to get all of these boxes in the mail. Besides, she loves finding new challenges for her sewing skills. Every once in a while if she seems really bored I get into a fight with something like a boar just to see if she'll be able to stitch me up good as new. Uh... heh, that... doesn't sound quite as good as it should... but I always felt it was better than doing something else like hurting myself. Even if it amounts to the same thing."

Icey was not sure just what the differce would have been in hurting himself and fighting with a boar would have been. She however was not one to judge anyone. She figured that everyone would have their own prefences after all. She could see where he had a problem with getting that many boxes in the mail at once. For one thing it could be kind of expensive. The other thing would be getting them their in the first place. His aunt certainly sounded like an intreasting creature . ‘’well okay. No that dose not sound good at all really’’ she said with a smile.

"Well in any case, let's see how much we can get done before that lunch break. Maybe we can even drop off some of the boxes on the way." He could call Rose later. She was usually out in the mornings anyway, on nature walks and flights. For now he should focus on this next sculpture since it was probably the most delicate one in the entire set. The black dragon took extra precautions when he was setting it up, filling the package with additional foam and bubble wrap. Granted it was made of stone, but he wasn't eager to test how durable it was and there were a LOT of little fancy points he needed to watch out for.

Icey smiled as she whent back to packing up the paintings. She was being extra careful not to break then even though he said that they were durable anyhow. She was careful not o let her claws scratch them. After all she did not want him to be criticized for something that she did.’’ Yeah I hope that we will be able to do that.’’ she said with a smile. She did not really mind if he did not get around to making the gloves today. She had many exta pair in her dorm.

Blake kept an eye on the clock, hoping to get a few more boxes done before heading out. The halls wouldn't be too busy for another thirty minutes. If he wanted to safely get the boxes through the halls he couldn't risk the living breathing obstacle course. Lunch would be nice though, and give them a chance to talk more without working. There was still a lot to deal with.

Icey worked on getting the boxes packed. So far she had about four of them packed. She could have been going faster but she did not really want to risk scracting them with her nails. She statred packing anouther box. She did kind of wonder if they would be able to get all of these boxes out safely. Well she supposed that they would have to leave before the lunch crowed really started. It would be kind of nice to talk with the dragon just a little more. Afterall he seemed to be a nice guy and it would be nice to learn more about him. She gave a glance around the room. They would still have to get alot more of this stuff packed if they wanted to get this all in the mail at the end of the day. Or at least try to get it all packed up and shipped out anyhow.

Blake managed to get together a few more boxes over the next ten minutes, smiling. "Think it's about time we took a bit of a break. Lunch? And any boxes we've got done and we don't need in our way anymore we can take down at the same time. Sound good?" He was looking forward to talking with her more. She was one of the nicer students he had met lately. Well, with a few exceptions, like the ones that had offered to help him with his gem cutting.

Icey looked up at the dragon from packing the box. She gave him a slight smile. It would be a good time to take a break. They could also take the boxes out if he wanted to. Icey took pride in trying to be as nice as she could. There were a few times that she could not really do that. When that happened she left the person so that she would not have to fight with them. " That sounds good. Yes we can take a few of these out if you want to." She said with a smile. She really would not mind talking to him a bit more either.

"Sounds good to me. Well, don't want to try and take too much at once even if I do have one of those carts around here somewhere. I'd say no more than ten total, just to be safe and see how well we can handle them all. If it's really easy next load we can take more. So, what would you like for lunch? Just whatever the cafeteria has?" Blake was in the mood for pizza really, and lots of it.

Icey smiled to the dragon. She did not want to try to take more then they could handle at one time. That would kind of defeat the purpose of packing all of them so carefully. She was not really sure what he meant by carts she supposed that he could be talking about something like a lift. “we do not want to get more then we can handle that is for sure.’’ she said with a smile. She had to think for a second about the lunch question though. She would eat about anything as long as it did not have any meat in it. She may have been a predatory bird but she just could not stand the taste of it for some reason. “Well I will eat just about anything as long as it dose not have any meat in it.’’ she said with a slight smile.

"Great, extra cheese pizza it is. Come on, let's see... can probably carry a few more paintings than sculptures. Hang on." Blake brought out a baggage trolley from a nearby closet, smiling and thankful he got the extra wide one. "Right... I'm thinking... six paintings and three or four figurines? Should be a safe start right?" Should be, but it would depend on how well they could stack everything and if anyone ran into them in the halls.

Icey smiled to the dragon. She did not know how many they would want to carry at one time. She could assume that they would be able to carry that many . Espicaly if they had some extra help using the trolly. It might have been a problem if there was someone in the hall. .” Okay . Well it should work . ” she said with a smile. She never had to take a whole lot of things out at once. She usaly only had to take one or two things at a time out.
