[He blinks at that and then cheeps a bit, baring his teeth and mane bristling. He makes a mock-snap at imaginary monks.]

[Kouryuu laughs gleefully, something he does very, very rarely.]

You're so great!

Kyuu!

[So happy that Angry is happy! It's like a completely different Angry.]

[Kouryuu smiles, then heads toward the temple to sit down on the sun-warmed wood of the porch near his master's door.]

Na, Jeep... do you have people in your life you care about? I wish you could tell me about your adventures.

[Jeep rolls up a bit more and purrs, enjoying the sunshine. When little!Angry speaks, the dragon squeaks happily and licks the boy's cheek.

He had four people he cared about, and he always had top watch over them. They were so silly, always getting into trouble.]

You've got someone, huh? Ahaha... that tickles...

[He pats him.]

You know...? I have two people special to me. Someone wise and kind to me. He doesn't judge me. And the other is tough and full of stubborn pride. He's like a brother to me in a way.

They're the kind of people you only meet once, you know? . . . they're precious to me.

[He smiles, looking down at the ground.]

I'm lucky... to have people like that. So, Jeep, I think when I grow up, I'm going to try to make sure I'm precious to someone, too.

[Angry had special people that wasn't Hungry? Or Mine and Loud? Curious, Jeep listens. While he wasn't as smart as a human or youkai, the little dragon picked up several words and cheeps a little.

Giving a small smile, he nods happily at little!Angry's words and purrs.]

[He pets Jeep again.]

The first one I talked about... that's my Master, Koumyou Sanzo. The other is Shuei.

I hope they'll be with me until I'm old. Friends... people like them, I think they're very rare.

[Jeep doesn't quite know what Angry means, so he licks the boy's hair instead. Happily grooming him, the little dragon wonders where he'd heard those names before. They were familiar?]

Kyuu?

Sorry... I guess it's harder for you to understand than I thought...

[He chuckles at the licking.]

It's okay, Jeep. You're a good boy.

Kyuu!

[The small dragon nods at that, and then strokes his ears back a bit and growls when he hears a monk pass by.]

"What is that filthy animal? You know the rules of the temple grounds!"

[Kouryuu directs his attention to the monk Jeep is growling at.]

He won't be long and he hasn't defiled anything.

"Honestly, it's bad enough you feel you can do as you will simply due to Master Koumyou Sanzo's favoritism of you!"

Tch. How annoying. Go polish your head.

"Hii!! How impudent! The others will hear of this!"

[The monk storms off. Kouryuu sighs.]

Bunch of idiots. Biiii.

Kyuu! Kyuu, kyuu!

[He's a mighty dragon, sir! Shame on you!

...yeah he's sticking his tongue out, too.]

You tell them, Jeep! Hehee, you're a lot of fun.

Kyuu!

[He jumps off Angry again and transforms into his car self, honking the horn. Wanna go for a ride?]

...you... but I... my place is here...

[He drives around in a circle, as if to prove that he's just taking him for a spin, not running away.]

Really?!

[Kouryuu races to the door, climbing into the passenger seat because Jeep is driving so he shouldn't sit there. He's not sure what else to do but just hold on.]

Okay!!

[Vroom, vroom! Jeep had taken bitties on a ride before, so he knew just how to do this! Driving on his own took a lot more energy than when Mine did it, but he could play for a while.

Taking off, he drives in a nice circle on the courtyard.]

[Kouryuu grinned, unable to hide his glee. A few monks had noticed the commotion and were staring awestruck at the vehicle, unable even to speak.]

I'm going to get in trouble for this.

Kyuu!

[The dragon gives an excited squeak under the hood of the jeep, promising to bite anyone that tried to be mean to little!Angry after this.]

[Kouryuu eventually gets so excited from driving around that he lets out a little squeal of laughter, throwing his hands in the air. He's never had this much fun before.]

[This is the best day ever! Little!Angry is so cute... this will only lead to fansmacks later, but he has new love for their bitter leader.]
