[Moses very nearly falls backwards, stumbling until he hits a tree, protecting Jay from hitting it as well. He grumbles, rubbing the back of his head while hanging onto his princess with one arm.]

Dammit, Bubbles. You're just one step away from me tryin' to tame you.

[He carefully removes Jay's shoes, tossing them toward Norma. Thankfully, Giet's noticed that Norma's standing down for now so he just sits back on his haunches, watching...waiting.]

There's your damn shoes. Not like the princess can walk in 'em. It's how I caught you in the first place, ain't it, Jay?

[Moses isn't sticking around, though. He's slowly inching back, keeping his eye on the dragon this time. He's learnt his lesson. He leans in close to Jay's ear, hoping that Norma doesn't have really good hearing to go with those pretty eyes.]

Better hang on in case I gotta run fast, princess. Wouldn't wanna lose you to some tree branch. You'd be her lunch if you stay here.
