It seemed like the dragon wasn't going to eat her, so she sighed, and sat down. Today is definitely the strangest day ever. Samba copied the scavenger's puff of air and sat back on her haunches.

Tilly raised her eyebrow at the dragon, and then started laughing. She was laughing so hard, tears escaped her eyes. I am never going to get that image out of my mind. That was hilarious! Was it trying to copy me?

Random Bystander she/her Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 Just now, Condensation said: Samba copied the scavenger's huff again. Still grinning, Tilly shook her head. "You," she said, "are a very strange dragon." She was used to talking to herself, so talking to the dragon didn't seem weird.

She imitated the last sound it had made. "Gun?"

Bu what is it that you want? Hmm." She pulled out another piece of paper, and started writing. Quote I have this image of Dalinar being in this world. He would be able to speak the dragon language because of his awesome bondsmith powers, so he'd know about the war. I then imagine him being like "I will unite the dragons together, and then I will unite the dragons and scavengers!"

And the sounds were weird - all soft and squishy. Not unlike the scavengers, now that she thought about it.

"Well, the simplest plan is the least likely to fail." she pointed to the first dragon. "Dragon." she then pointed to the other dragon "Dragon." she gestured to herself. "Human." She smiled hopefully. Edit: @Shard of Reading Edited February 23, 2021 by Random Bystander

They even seemed to have a method of communication. The scavenger gestured at him, and called him a "Dragon" Polar copied the motion and tried to work his mouth around the weird sounds.

Is it working? I sure hope it is working. I need to call them something. It will be confusing to call them dragon A and dragon B all the time. Hmm. I can nick-name them! I love making nick-names! She pointed to the first dragon again. "Nova?" and then she pointed to the other "Hail?" she then pointed to herself. "Tilly." I hope they understand what I mean...
Condensation she/her Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 (edited) Quote Why Nova? She looks like a SeaWing. "Dr-gun?" Samba snorted, then pointed at herself. "Seaweed." Edited February 23, 2021 by Condensation

Quote She has a sister named Nova. They haven't seen each other in years, but yeah. Tilly raised her eyebrow again. "Yeah, no. I can't pronounce that. My mouth doesn't move like that." She grinned. "And so, you are Nova."

Condensation she/her Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 It was drawing again. She couldn't tell what it was drawing.
