( Why is everything so! Noisy!! The Beast keeps trying to back up, only to be met with more of the woods behind him, his body far too large to properly fit. Trees are snapping and breaking with more of those splitting sounds, and the dragon's necks continue fretfully curling in close to its body while its long tail curls tightly around one of its back legs. Panic is definitely the vibe here, which is... perhaps almost comical a sight, considering his massive size and foreboding appearance. But he is desperately trying to make himself small........
When the girl speaks again, it takes a few moments for the dragon to respond in its state, still fitfully trying to cower in on itself, wings still crashing against trees on either side of itself.... until those soft sounds and clicks do come through, and the Beast's eyes are all rolling downwards to stare at the tiny witch below. The great scaled body stops moving around and tenses as the girl slowly approaches a bit closer, but then something in the Beast pauses, once again really locking onto her.
Staring.... staring... If it's not outright recognition, it's certainly something, attention held intensely in place by the girl as she calls up to the Beast. Both heads slowly turn to face her dead-on, one tilting slightly, as though curious. They regard her like that, listening to the sounds she makes, something softer and intentional to concentrate on, and after a long moment, one head slowly starts snaking a bit closer, moving down to where the girl is, pausing only a few feet away as its eyes stare widely at her.
......At once, a large bird gives a rasping cry and flies out of a nearby tree, sending the dragon's other head into terror. It joins its twin, moving out closer to the girl and lowering near her feet, giving a throaty whimper as it seems to be trying to nudge behind her....... Is he... trying to hide behind her...

Yes, yes he is. )
