[Give Valerius a moment to enjoy that kiss, at least! Adoring a single sinner was not something the beast did often, seeing them all as the same morsels with slightly different flavors. However, he’s learned so much from the little pet game he’s been playing with Qilby, and it...reminded him of things he wants so much. Not that he’ll say, of course.]

[The scales on Valerius’ arms start to creep along the sides of his body, snow-white and opalescent--much like the color of the sloth crystals adorning the room. As if to confirm that yes, his “master” can very much pass him for a dragon. He even learned the language just in case he decided to camouflage closer~!]

I’ll do everything I can to assist, dearest. [He said with a sparkling, sharp-toothed grin. But then a thought occurs to him, and he looks pensive.] Although, perhaps not in here...I wouldn’t want to transform and destroy anything you’d rather leave intact.

[The most considerate sin-eating death god one could ask for.]
