Their little hut had been where he had spent the grand majority of his first few months, and when they had moved into a bigger space to accommodate all of the growing and changing going on in both his and Roxanne's life, he had been perfectly happy with that. It had never really been the buildings he had grown attached to, but rather the loving mother that lived inside of them, and the warm atmosphere that she always fostered for him. Needless to say, because of this, Roan had never really thought about what he would like when he became old enough for his own home. He had, at this point, seen more than a few joiners adjusting to life within the Typhoon and carving out their own particular little niche among the huts or aboard the ship, but he wasn't really sure what qualifications everyone looked for in where they chose to lay their heads. Was it just the size of the home? The history? The general feeling of it? It certainly filled the boy with a sense of curiosity, and he had begun to make it a little bit of a habit to watch new joiners when they arrived, curious to see what they would pick out for themselves in the end.

Ska'arq was one of those afformentioned new joiners, and Roan had felt himself grow curious about the dragon ever since the other had first arrived to their group. After all, he was a bright purple dragon. It wasn't every day that you just saw one of those, and who knows what type of house he would pick? So, Roan had lingered outside the tavern for a while after Ska'arq had returned from his jungle juice experience, allowing himself to be distracted by whatever was around him in order to pass the time. It wasn't the most exciting thing ever, but he did manage to hold out until Ska'arq reemerged, looking like he was quite ready to pick a place out. Roan was practically vibrating with excitement as he followed the other from afar, his feet sinking into the warm sand as they headed for where the rows upon rows of huts lingered. He watched as Ska'arq passed by many of the already occupied little buildings, before he eventually came along to his choice. As soon as he saw the dragon head inside, Roan found his shoulders slumping slightly, the faintest bit of a pout coming to his face. Really? He hadn't expected somewhere so... mundane. However, it wasn't as if he was going to change the other's choice.

Figuring it would be rude to just follow Ska'arq around and not say hello, the small draconic kit made his way up the front steps of the porch, stopping once he reached the doorway. Sitting down, Roan tilted his head to one side and looked around before speaking, "Hola, Ska'arq! Are you making this place your new hogar dulce hogar? (Home sweet home?)"
