Royal Rescue Adoptions

The Plaza was quiet.

Was, being the operative word, as the putputput of tiny motorcycle engines preceded the sight of said little bikes being ridden by a small cadre of fluffy, feathery raptors. Most of the motorcycles were hauling wagons, each bearing a load of some manner of animal kennel, and they stopped their little caravan near the fountain. All five raptors hopped from their rides and scurried to work- undoing covers so the little kennels they'd towed were visible, Princess and Clementine busily hanging a sign on the edge of the fountain.

'Roial Rezku Adoptonz'

And sure enough each kennel had different animals inside- the sounds of cats out of one, another full of chirping and fluttering. Another few were quiet, but suddenly the largest kennel had a puppy sitting atop it, a colorful bow on it's collar, tail wagging enthusiastically.

Princess gave the pup an uncertain look but... well it was staying around them, and how could they stop it anyways? So she just left the others to making sure the animals all had their food and water while she waddled towards the nearest person with an excited little 'wook'

"Come see? Come make friends?" That was how adoption worked right? People fell wildly in love with a new friend and took them home! She was So Good at this!

Indominus rests her forelimbs on the ground and leans her head as low as she comfortably can to be roughly face-to-face with Princess. The size difference is still dramatic as hell, but it's a sign of good intentions. That, and because it's high summer and there's game everywhere, she's better fed than usual and has no interest in hunting today.

Unlike the raptors, she only has a few wispy, rudimentary feathers on her neck and back, but they fluff up with indignation as she hears about bad people. Maybe she's jumping to conclusions but she can all too easily imagine. "I will protect any that want to come to my pack," she promises.

And with these creatures, who are too small to be even a slightly tempting snack, she's pretty confident she can keep up her end of that bargain. If there are any who aren't terrified by the sight of her, that is.

She makes a rumbling, sub-vocal sound of approval. No idea who this Alpha is, but she approves of vengeance. "Good. Did you get to join in? You're small but you have sharp teeth." She bets Princess could do some serious damage if needed.

That's not the issue at hand, though. The puppy appearing so close definitely surprises her, but she doesn't startle, just snorts and makes a little chuffing noise. She isn't familiar with teleportation, so her first thought is that the little animal has some sort of camouflage like she does. She likes.

She sniffs delicately, then creeps a limb forward toward the puppy, claws turned to the ground away from it, to let it sniff. From an outside perspective this would probably be highly anxiety-inducing to watch, actually, but she knows what her intentions are, and hopefully the other animals can sense they're peaceful.
