--don't jump on my face. Yes, I know he's gone, but that does not excuse jumping on faces-- Oh, it's on. [an awkward pause.] O-oh! It's on!

[... another pause. there's some rustling, and frantic movements in the background. a small crash.]

I don't even know how I'm supposed to word it-- I didn't think this far--

Uh. A question.

I have heard of injuries being miraculously healed upon arrival in Johto, but a dragon turning human, I must say, is a new one.

Injuries being healed? [looking down at his leg.] I feel like Johto's been holding back in that department, the--

Wait, not the point here.

If you are concerned for your friend, you have nothing to worry about. According to the trainers who have been here far longer than I have, someone disappearing from this world altogether means they've returned to their original world.

Yeah, I thought so. It's still good to hear it from other people! So, uh, thanks!

... Hypothetically!

I'm certain it will allow you, and many others, to rest more...easily. It is, after all, difficult not knowing what befell a close friend.

[Tom waits for a moment, averting his gaze as if shamed] Forgive me for letting my curiosity get the better of me, but...how is it that they managed the transformation between dragon and human?

... Yeah. I mean, he can handle himself, but worried is still a good word for what I'm feeling right now.

[oh wait. the whole hypothetical thing. whatever, hiccup just pauses for a moment, thinking on how to make this sound. not-crazy.]

It, uh, just happened. I mean, this place did it. So we're not really sure.

If it assures you, Johto's complete disregard of time seems to support the theory. In order for someone to exist in someone else's future, the original world's time must still remain intact. [Wholly unconcerned, Tom recalls the disastrous examples of time-turner usage he'd come across in his studies] Else we would have much more serious problems to face here.

[And now that he's provided some comfort to the stranger, Tom directs the conversation back to the dragon] If your friend was a dragon until arriving here, how did you communicate back in your world?

[well. that kind of reply wasn't what he was expecting.] -- Er. I get what you mean. [he does understand it, yeah, but wow. he's not used to... intelligent babble. from someone other than him.] Thanks.

And it wasn't too hard. He knew how to get his point across. The person he was talking to just needed to listen.

Think nothing of it. [Now Tom leans in] Wasn't difficult, you say?

[Pausing for effect, he allows an amused smile to play about his lips before dangling the bait] If only the dragon experts back in my world could hear you. With their curiosity, I doubt you would have a moment's peace.

Not really. I mean, at first, maybe, but after a wh--

[wait. did hiccup just hear what he thought he heard.]

. . . Dragon experts?

Yes, dragon experts. [Tom studies him, schooling his expression into one of polite confusion] Do they not have them in your world?

Not... formally? Technically, I guess we were all kind of dragon experts. I'm just kind of surprised. I wasn't really expecting other, uh, people with dragons. Back home.

[His gaze takes in the old fashioned garb] A community of dragon experts, perhaps?

By your earlier description, I can imagine your dragon friend must be much more intelligent than the ones in my world. They are scarcely able to communicate with humans on even the basest levels.

Community of dragon experts... [a pause.] Yeah, I guess you could say that.

Have you... tried? Sometimes it's not really obvious. Speaking from personal experience here. You can get the wrong idea. Just a suggestion.

[Video] non_0mnismoriar February 25 2011, 03:46:43 UTC
I have not tried it myself, no, for there are none in the area where I resided. [Now, that is an interesting way of putting it...]

Was your dragon friend capable of speech?

So you don't have any face-to-face experience with them. Okay. Uh, they're very... fire-breathy.

Here he was learning. Back home... no. Unless he was holding back, or something.
