[Hi Paradisa, have the sound of a pen tapping against the journal]

[Tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap-]

[Finally the sound stops and there's a melodramatic defeatist groan]

Ugh! Fine I give up!

Hey Paradisa! How are you all?

Tell me, what's a good way to kill a lot of time without going crazy? And please, nothing about reading, training or playing in the snow.

Thank you! ♥

Liar. Heeeeey! You're cheating!

[wilder]

Whaaat?

How?

[wolfchild]

You can't do that!

[ Because she'd lose 8( ]

[wilder]

But it's part of the rules!

[wolfchild]

I didn't tell you to do that!

[wilder]

It's not against the rules, is it?

[wolfchild]

But I didn't tell you to!

[wilder]

My little wolf, that's sorta the fun of these games- you don't have total control over the other player.

[wolfchild]

I know that. It'd be no fun if it was.

[ But she's still going to be a sore loser because a) 12, b) it's her world's game dangit and c) 12. At least you can kiss your dragon goodbye. B( ]

[wilder]

That's right-

-- Hey! My dragon!

[wolfchild]

Is dead now.

[wilder]

But he was my favorite!

[wolfchild]

Here.

[ Arya holds out the tile for him. Because she's nice like that. ]

[wilder]

[He'll take the tile and places it on the side of his board away from the other dead pieces with a side]

You will not be forgotten dear dragon.

[wolfchild]

That's no good. You have to give it a name too.

[wilder]

...Flamer?

[No one ever said he was good at names]

[wolfchild]

[ So. Much. Judging. ]

Scaley's name makes sense now. At least Curry was lucky.

[wilder]

I didn't name Scaley! That was Martel!

[wolfchild]

You two are not allowed to name any more animals.

[ Even Rickon did a better job of it and he named his direwolf Shaggydog. ]

[wilder]

You'd have to stop Colette too, she named every dog we didn't know a name of during our travels.

[.........now that he thinks about it, there are an abnormal amount of stray dogs in his world what the hell]

[wolfchild]

She's especially not allowed. Dragons need proper dragon names. Like Vhagar.

[wilder]

What's Vhagar mean?

[wolfchild]

It's a Valyrian name. I don't know anyone who speaks High Valyrian anymore. Mayhaps in the Citadel. But Vhagar was one of Aegon and Rhaenys and Visenya's dragons. The stories say you could ride a horse down its gullet and its fire was hot enough to melt the armor of a knight and cook him inside it. Visenya Targaryen rode it. She was a queen and a warrior who preferred ringmail to silk. She took the Vale with Vhagar alone. The Lord of the Eyrie sent out their army, but Visenya flew Vhagar right up to the Eyrie and demanded their surrender. She took the Vale without spilling a drop of blood. And she was never without her sword, a Valyrian steel sword called Dark Sister.

[ Visenya Targaryen. Arya's girl crush. ]

[wilder]

Wow...sounds like a seriously amazing lady.

[wolfchild]

[ Arya beams. Let her tell you all about her heroes. Fierce, stunning, etc etc. ]

She was. Everyone always talks about Aegon the Conqueror, but he'd have been nothing without Visenya and Rhaenys.
