[ should note yes it's cold in theory so he does have a peacoat on, but he's being all annoying and it's open. slouchy. nodd engages in vile canadian behavior. ]
... That is quite interesting. [ o: ] Our cardinals would be most eager to learn how you accomplished such a thing. The people of Sanbreque see dragons as sacred.
[ for once, nodd has something he thinks about saying, but he chooses not to. ]
The dragons I've met had a certain... divine aspect. But most of my world thinks they went extinct ages ago. I've met two and that would be an abundance.

I am currently looking for gloves to combat the cold. The weather here is harsher than what I'm familiar with.
[ Nodd can notice he has both hands now! And they're both covered by gloves that are not thick enough for the current temperature. ]
... Your hair is markedly longer than when I saw you last.

Is it?
[ so hateful. ]
I think it's another wonderful benefit of being a crew member of the Eudora.
[ sidelong glance at handS because he was considering a poor taste joke about how dion only needs one glove ]
A prosthetic?

[ back to hand ]
Why are you hiding it?
no subject
I find it less unsettling this way. The sight of a metal limb can be rather jarring.
no subject
For you or are you thinking about others?
[ the pause between his sentences is so quick. ]
Am I allowed to see it?
no subject
[ why is nodd so curious... but fine. he peels off the glove to reveal the metal arm underneath. ]
no subject
Ooooo. It's so cool--it looks like a gauntlet or something. Can you feel this?
[ touching the back of dion's new hand ]
no subject
Yes, I can feel the pressure. The technology is quite advanced.
no subject
Now you'll have to rule with an iron fist.
[ he'll be here all week (maybe). ]
Let's find you some gloves.
[ won't mention scrap's mittens. would rather have a shopping outing. ]

Were you looking for anything for yourself?

Ah, well. [ sweats ] What sort of meaning do you often seek out in your tattoos?
no subject
[ traces a circle with a finger over his covered chest. ]
It symbolizes--symbolized? It's broken. But it symbolized my connection with a dragon. So, maybe something along those lines.
no subject
... A dragon? [ now he's really paying attention. scalie senses engaged. ] What manner of connection is it?
no subject
It let me speak and read Draconic--improved some of my abilities. I used it to speak with her from a far distance, once.
