[Today will find Spike in the library, piles and piles of books about dragons in front of him as he tries to find some answers the castle doesn't seem to want to give him. His journal is open beside him as he dictates into it]

Man, there are no books in the library telling you how to be a dragon. It's all about dragons being evil and stealing princesses and stuff. What is with that? I mean, who'd tie some girl to a stake and say 'oh this'll get rid of the dragon, this is what he wants'. That doesn't make any sense. Nothing here paints dragons in a good picture at all, and I know I'm not the only dragon that doesn't want to stomp around eating people. It sucks.

[Siiiiigh] And I'm gonna have nightmares about this George guy for the rest of my life. Thanks for that, Paradisa.

[Page flip. Silence] Wait. Dragons have a year? What's that about? Are dragons supposed to be doing something special this year or something? Because I don't want to miss out on that.

I tried to see if there were any books on the weather in Paradisa, but I couldn't find any in the library at all. [His tone very much suggesting that him not being able to find a book is UNHEARD OF. It's one of those skills he's very proud of] There doesn't seem to be any books on Paradisa itself at all. It's really weird.

What did, exactly?

How did that manage to happen? I was under the impression that we were all in some sort of suspended animation.
cantacquityou: (Shrug)

...In retrospect, it might have been a good thing if you had managed to destroy the castle.
cantacquityou: (thinking)

[personal profile] cantacquityou 2012-01-29 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
If the castle is a sentient being as everyone says, then perhaps destroying it would let go of the control it has over us and we'd be back home. [At least it's a thought to amuse oneself by]

From what I understand, one does not apparently stay dead here.

...I had a conversation with someone recently in which they spoke of an item of which, if ingested, indefinitely stunts the maturing process of a certain breed of animal. I am not exactly certain if that applies to all organisms, however...but it is worth a thought.
cantacquityou: (Logic)

[personal profile] cantacquityou 2012-01-29 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
...When we use the term, 'animal,' it is referring to any multicellular organism of the Animal Kingdom...even humans, such as myself. By scientific standards, we are all certainly 'animals.'

...But I was not comparing you to them, if that's what you thought, initially.

It was a sort of...stone, if I recall correctly...

...Whoever said it was 'magic'?
cantacquityou: (Dou shichatta no kana)

[personal profile] cantacquityou 2012-01-29 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
...Not necessarily.


Mere masses of cells possess self-awareness and sentience, the intangible sun rays make plants grow, and planets and celestial bodies stay suspended in mysterious dark matter...all of which are unseen, even miraculous, perhaps, but none of which is considered magic. Perhaps there is a perfectly scientific reason for it.

Excuse me? Princess?


[Gathering from the use of pronouns, talk of being raised by ponies...]


...Are you referring to Ms. Luna?
cantacquityou: By IchibanDasai (me) (Standard Face)

[personal profile] cantacquityou 2012-01-29 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
I was referring to stars and the like. [Time to cool it with the words, Jack, he's a baby dragon.]


...Perhaps it is magic, then.
