Tony's been... well, bored. And being bored is a bad thing when the young man in question has a penchant for trouble, a little more curiosity than was healthy, and access to magic ( Read more... )

There's company nearby - a man in his late twenties, dressed in a weathered tweed jacket and pouring over a large tome. It's probably obvious that he's studying it - he's regularly pausing, making notes, shuffling towards another book on the couch, then back to his notes again.

Paul, our resident history PhD student probably needs a break.

Eventually,Tony will look up. "You might have better luck of you got it all together and sat down man."

only_paul February 10 2010, 04:09:29 UTC

Paul pauses. "Oh --- sorry. Was I disturbing you?"

notgandalf February 10 2010, 04:16:38 UTC

"No, not at all. You just looked kind of uncomfortable."

only_paul February 10 2010, 22:18:22 UTC

Paul groans balefully at the book. "It just doesn't make sense."

notgandalf February 10 2010, 23:42:47 UTC

"What doesn't?"

only_paul February 11 2010, 00:33:41 UTC

"This," he points to it. "And that," he points to another.

"Despite the semantic relationship between the two phenomenon, there is no academic evidence that they share an identity."

This, he finds, is quite irritating.

notgandalf February 11 2010, 02:52:08 UTC

Tony looks at him blankly. "So?"

only_paul February 12 2010, 14:20:48 UTC

Paul sighs and shakes his head. "Oh dear. I'm so sorry." He glances at the other guy. "I am trying to explain the presence of that dragon," he explains sheepishly.

notgandalf February 12 2010, 19:10:41 UTC

Tony blinked, then smiled, clearly amused. "You mean, uh, Iskierka? Big, red, breathes fire? What's there to explain?"

only_paul February 13 2010, 17:43:55 UTC

.... "You talk to it?"

notgandalf February 13 2010, 20:21:01 UTC

"Her." He was grinning now. "Iskierka's a girl dragon. And yeah. Haven't you?"

only_paul February 13 2010, 22:57:41 UTC

.... "No, not quite." Er.

notgandalf February 13 2010, 23:00:25 UTC

Tony's not going to mention that he was utterly terrified of said dragon when he first met her.

"Well why not man? She's actually pretty cool, though she will ask you lots of questions if you get her going."

only_paul February 13 2010, 23:49:14 UTC

"The order of the Dragon has been a long-standing threat - certainly, you have been manipulated."

Of course, Paul is completely wrong.

notgandalf February 13 2010, 23:52:00 UTC

Tony has to look at him for a moment, then bursts out laughing. "Seriously? The Order of the Dragon? Like... the Illuminati or the Freemasons? That kind of 'order'? Or more like 'order' as in 'commands'?"
