Jason felt really awkward,and he sat up but his left leg didn't move as he winced from the clawing pain it was in.But,again,he was thankful to still have his leg.

Grim scrubbed a paw over his face, then carefully cleaned the claws, one by one, before turning to Jason. "When Leanansidhe heard why you were banished from the Nevernever, she could not believe it. I told her dragons are unreasonable and irrational when it comes to their emotions, but to have the Winter prince exiled as well...she was sure it was a false rumor. Mabs son would never defy his queen and court, to be banished to the mortal world with the half-blood dragon." Grimalkin snorted, sounding pleased with himself. "In fact, we made a rather interesting bet on it. She will be terribly annoyed when she hears she has lost."

Jason's freckles turned guilty gray and dark regretful blue as he forced himself to stand,even on his left leg despite how it shook,as if threatening to give way. He didn't like being referenced as a half-blood,especially by Grim,but he didn't say a thing about it. "Most dragons are not for their emotions,despite that a good part of their system runs on them,they mostly run on hate and rage.The main emotions that push them to survive.I'm just a soft-scale,I'm unreasonable and irrational when it comes to my emotions." He gave a shrug and his expression showed as if he didn't care,but his freckles screamed otherwise.

Ash was keeping his expression carefully neutral, especially when he saw Jason's freckles. Grimalkin sneezed, the feline equivalent of a laugh, and continued. "So, naturally, when you disappeared from the Nevernever, Leanansidhe asked me to find you. She wishes to speak to you, dragon. Now."

"Like,I ain't sayin' no for probably getting my tail stomped but,right now? I just open a portal or she want me to do something specific.?" He was a little confused,he couldn't go through trods anymore.

Grimalkin stood and leaped gracefully from the wall, landing in the grass without a sound. "Follow me," he ordered, his eyes becoming floating golden orbs in the dark. "I will show you the trod to the Between from here. And human, there are rumors of Iron fey hunting you as well, so I suggest we hurry."

"We were only told not to use any trods to Faery," Ash explained in a low voice

"Oh..." Jason nodded that he understood now,that totally made sense.And it made him feel better about having made that portal,he'd not used a trod to Faery so he was okay on that part. His freckles shifted to calm lavender but at the edges where strands of yellow and dark purple winding around each other and twisting together nervously as he followed as instructed,confused on why Grim called him dragon and human and not just Jason or Skytracer or Jason Skytracer. He had names.

"No," Puck told him, and the orbs blinked in surprise. "Im not done here. Leanansidhe wants to talk to Jason? Good, I have some things to talk to her about, as well. Until then, she can just wait."

Jason stopped and looked to Puck,remembering that the Iron Fey situation was still going on. He really didn't want to leave Puck,not again.But he had come here with Ash for a reason and now Leanansidhe wanted to talk to him.

Grimalkin stared at him as if he'd grown three heads. "Defying Leanansidhe. I had no idea it was going to be so interesting." He purred, narrowing his eyes. "Very well. I will accompany you, if only to see the Exile Queens face when you tell her the reason she had to wait."
