This post here is for personal conversations which should happen but one or both of us doesn't want to put up a new post/log and thus we will just thread it out here. This can be used to thread with Helios anytime and anywhere. This can either be in person (with action), or via the journal's call feature (voice and/or written).

When replying to this post please mark in the subject line when and how it is taking place EX:

I agree, and I know she'd agree if we asked her too. Who else should we ask? [Yes, he is. Such a good, giant, one-eyed puppy. Odin hops to his feet and shakes, snow flying off him before he trots off to explore a bit more.]

[folklorist]

Who else, who else. Perhaps...Robert, maybe? [ Hmm. Who seems like a cat person. ]

I'm not entirely sure on people's preferences towards cats and dogs. There's a very big gap between the two for some reason. I like them both equally to be honest. They both have their quirks and personalities after all.

[shadedsunlight]

I think Robert would be a good choice. How about Link?

I've always liked cats and dogs equally as well. I suppose it depends on the quirks and personalities you like. Then you have those that like birds, reptiles, rodents, and/or fish. A pet-type for everyone.

[folklorist]

Link would be wonderful to have as well! And perhaps we can ask over the journals for anyone else interested. [ This will be the best plan ever. ]

How do you think Giles would take to a pet dragon? [ He is so teasing with that question but not really. A pet dragon would be cool. Dragons are cool. ]

[shadedsunlight]

I think we should. We'd have to do a bit of screening, make sure no one would hurt any animals, but I think it's a great it.

I think Giles would take wonderfully to a pet dragon. Not an issue at all. [Mostly because Giles wouldn't get a say. Dragons are very awesome. Who wouldn't want a pet dragon?]

[folklorist]

I believe the main issue would be finding somewhere to stick a dragon. Granted there's the spacial distortion spell and, and bigger rooms. Also the shed a-and we could always build something for it...

[ He is seriously contemplating this. He is seriously contemplating it! ]

[shadedsunlight]

I'm sure we could build some sort of shelter. I guess it depends on how big the dragon is, but I'm sure we'd find a way to provide proper accommodations.

[They don't even have a dragon and Ginia is already contemplating this.]

[folklorist]

A dragon. You know I've never thought of having one before. I guess it's because I've been around them with the Academy and all. [ And some dragons, ahem Ra, can be quite insufferable sometimes. ] But it would amazing, wouldn't it?

[ He looks at the snow and then back at Ginia. He blinks and then remembers something. He'll snap his fingers. ] Ah! But in the meantime! Would you mind closing your eyes for a few minutes?

[shadedsunlight]

I think I might have had a fantasy or two about having a pet dragon as a child. The things we'd do and all the places we'd go together. [She laughs quietly. What a girl she'd been, head in the clouds, feet dancing across the floor. Still that girl in some ways.] It would be, very much.

[She looks curiously at him, arches a brow at him, but complies, closing her eyes and covering them with her hands.]

[folklorist]

But why just have it as a fantasy, hm? Especially here when the sky is the limit. [ Don't might the shuffling or the sounds of snow crunching here or there. ]

Just one more second...and- [ Mm hmm some humming before a whispered 'ah ha' and Ginia might see a glowing light from beyond her hands. ]

There we are! You can look now. [ And what Ginia will see is a snow dragon staring curiously back at her head tilting to the side. It's almost identical to the one Helios made back in December only slightly smaller due to time constraints. It's tail swishes back and forth making snow fall from it in small little 'plops' as it hits the ground. ]

What do you think? Do you think Giles would allow him to stay? [ He laughs. ]

[shadedsunlight]

This place is full of all sorts of wonderful things. [Her curiosity is beginning to get the better of her, but she keeps her eyes closed and covered.

When he's allowed to look, her hands quickly drop down. For a few seconds she stares, jaw slack, eyes wide. Then there's practically a girlish squeal as her hands cover her mouth.]

Even if Giles didn't, and god knows why he wouldn't, I would insist on it! He's beautiful, Helios.

[folklorist]

[ Helios is ever so happy by that reaction. ] Since you didn't get a chance to see them back when I made them. [ He gives the dragon an affectionate pat on the scaly looking snout. ]

You-you don't think he'd mind? [ Sorry Ginia these are just uncertainties that have cropped up over the past few days, don't mind him. ] I-I wouldn't want to...intrude or-or upset anyone.

[shadedsunlight]

[Ginia beams as she reaches out and gives the snow dragon a gentle pat.] This means a lot to me. Thank you.

[Her smile fades slightly as she glances at her friend. Oh, Giles, if they only knew what was wrong with him.]

I don't think he would. And... I think it'll all be okay. Whatever is going on, it can't last forever. He'll come around, I know it.

[folklorist]

[ A warm smile as the dragon nudges her hand gently. ]

You're right. He will and he'll probably feel absolutely terrible about it. But, but we'll just have to reassure him that it's alright, that it wasn't his fault. Everything will be alright. [ He sounds rather distant as he says that not looking or focusing entirely on anything in particular at the moment.

Worse things have happened and they're still just as close as ever, so this? This won't do anything to them, or so Helios is optimistic about it. ] What should his name be, hm?

[shadedsunlight]

Of course we will. And everything will be all right. It always will be. [Still, she sighs a little. She believes her words, but there's also no telling how he may be when he returns from his mallynapping. But there's a bond between him and Helios that isn't so easily broken. Even if there may distance between them, it's still a strong bond.

If she were the jealous type, she might envy how close the two men were, but it's understandable a many would be close to his brother.] His name... how about Boreas?

[folklorist]

Yes of course you're right. We will, we always do. A-And we, we have been through worse...unfortunately. [ He looks absentmindedly down at his hands the injured one not entirely able to close as tightly as the good one. He snaps out of it and looks back at Ginia with a smile. ]

Boreas? I think that's a wonderful name! What do you say to that, hm? [ The question is directed to none other than the dragon itself which merely nods as enthusiastically as a snow sculpture can be allowed. ] Boreas it is then.
