[Lance is clearly on the beach, hair kinda windswept, with an actual grin lurking around his face. He also seems to be smearing cream on some burns on his arm, and his skin looks a little red in general. A goodly distance behind him--enough that the entire scene is in view--there is a golden dragon curled up on what appears to be a nest made out of

[ Before he even replies to this, there's just some time staring, attempts to not facepalm, and... what is even going on. ]

Did you... did it-breath fire on you?

[video always]

[punkass_drgnrdr]

No, I dodged. My fault; I'm used to the personal boundaries of dragons from my world and got a little too close.

You're burned.

[ He's not even going to try saying Lance shouldn't even be down there. He lived in the apartment with its menagerie and hangs out at the shelter sometimes. Sefton knows that Lance wouldn't be Lance if he didn't check this out. ]

[He sobers--sort of--in deference to Sefton's feelings, but he's still unusually (if unsurprisingly) cheerful.]

It's not the worst I'd ever had. Dragon trainers need to expect burns.

[polarisation]

Once burned, twice shy?

[ Read: please don't do that again, you idiot. ]

[punkass_drgnrdr]

Fall off the dragon's back, get back on.

[Read: hey, I'm not gonna let a couple little burns stop me from having fun. :C]

[polarisation]

You weren't on her back.

[ Read: ... gdi Lance. ]

[punkass_drgnrdr]

Metaphorically speaking.

[Read: What, it's interesting. New specie of dragons!]

[polarisation]

... whatever.

[ Read: can't try changing your mind, even if I want to, so let's just say I don't care. ]

[punkass_drgnrdr]

You should come down one day. I can give you an abridged orientation.

[Read: want to join me in my joy and keep an eye on me in person in the process?]

[polarisation]

... 're you kidding?

[ Read: what makes you think I wouldn't get roasted? That second part is tempting, though. ]

[punkass_drgnrdr]

Nope. You wouldn't even need to get close; she's big enough to see details from a distance.

[Read: I'll make sure you don't.]

[polarisation]

... Why?

[ Read: wat do with dragons. ]

[punkass_drgnrdr]

It'd be fun.

[Read: Have fun and learn things about them!]

[polarisation]

But...

[ Read: fun is not something I usually indulge in, man. ]

[punkass_drgnrdr]

And educational.

[Read: So pretend it's something else.]
