Comments

[championofsnark]

Ahhhh well, not really, no, depending on what we're doing. We do get things done, just in a haphazard way.

Amethyst, isn't that purple?

[tosavecocoon]

if you say so. but its fun i guess?

yeah! okay orchid, amethyst. i just need two more!

[championofsnark]

It's very fun. The best type of fun. Outside of the morning after, when you swear off ever doing it again, until about ten hours later.

There's those flowers in the north. Cle-something?

[tosavecocoon]

too much fun to let the morning after ruin it?

[ she thinks she's starting to understand. ]

uh... i dont think im very good with the plants here yet. maybe i'll just make up something that rhymes with one of the others

[championofsnark]

Exactly! You ever have one of those?

It's in the books I think, in the summary of plants and animals and such. [Hawke pretends she never reads things, but, well.]

[tosavecocoon]

i guess so, but i dont remember drinking too much before it

oh yeah. i need to read that, see if anything familiar is there. i hope not

[championofsnark]

So you're a light weight?

Why do you hope not?

[tosavecocoon]

i guess so.

anything i know of is dangerous. i wouldnt want anyone to risk getting poisoned or stomped on or disoriented from oretoise bellows

[championofsnark]

Yeah, that would be bad. I don't know what an oretoise is. What's that?

[tosavecocoon]

its the general species name of giant tortoises. theres the adamanchelid, adamantortoise, adamantoise, long gui, and shaolong gui. theyre so big they shake the ground with each step like an earthquake and if youre not prepared, it can really hurt! their roars are disorienting too. you have to be really careful around them.

[championofsnark]

That sounds intense! How big are they? Dragon size?

[tosavecocoon]

i guess so? the baby adamanchelid and shaolong gui are taller than i am. i think im the size of one of their legs. the bigger ones... im the size of their feet. i think. well im as tall as a foot but theyre definitely a lot bigger around than i am!

[championofsnark]

That sounds about right. Some of the smaller dragons have legs the size of me, but some could squash me like I'm a pebble beneath their paws. They're bloody fantastic. I've dreamed of riding one since I
was a little girl.

[tosavecocoon]

i hope your dragons are more friendly than oretoises! i want to see a dragon but not if its gonna squish me!

[championofsnark]

They're not friendly at all, they'll try to eat you immediately.

[tosavecocoon]

oh. sounds like a behemoth. maybe i can just admire them from a distance. thats what i do with just about everything back home.

[championofsnark]

Yes! That's what I do too. They're stunning. I know a woman who can turn into one. Well I don't "know" her but I've met her.

[tosavecocoon]

like a shapeshifter? wow! no one i know can do that

[ well... a fal'cie probably could. barthandelus can turn into a human, so why not a dragon too? ]

[championofsnark]

Yeah! Some mages can shapeshift where I'm from, but I'm fairly certain she's a unique one.
