[The screen shows a very young troll with her face obscured by the hood of Terezi's red dragon cape. Seeing as tiny Terezi doesn't exactly know what she's doing, the image itself is rather crooked.]

RAWR. I AM A DRAGON.

And the dragon demands that she be shown back to her hive immediately!

[Cower in fear of this terrible beast.]

Now you can make hoofbeast sounds. It's almost as good as hooves.

[aim_exorable]

Yeah, it is!

[This cheers him up immensely, and he leans closer to the screen.]

The noble hoofbeast doesn't know where the dragon's lair is, but he's lost his too. Maybe instead, they can go exploring?

[A few clopping noises.]

[sniffdeceit]

[She might have shown him how to do it, but it's still kind of ridiculous to hear, and it gets her giggling.]

What if the dragon would rather eat the hoofbeast?

[aim_exorable]

[A bit of a falter before he tries to seem confident again.]

Well, the hoofbeast knows a lot of better things for a dragon to eat! [UUUUH...] Has the dragon ever had a souffle?

[sniffdeceit]

Hehehe... a what?

[aim_exorable]

It's this kind of bread pastry thing. A talking hopbeast taught me how to make it!

[sniffdeceit]

That's silly!

Hopbeasts don't talk.

[aim_exorable]

Well this one did. His name is Bugs. You can look for yourself. I'm not a liar.

[sniffdeceit]

Why would a hopbeast be named Bugs? That's silly.

[aim_exorable]

You shouldn't be rude. What if his lusus named him that?

[sniffdeceit]

Then his lusus isn't very good with names!

[aim_exorable]

Rude!

Not every lusus can be good with names.

...What's yours? When you're not being a dragon.

[sniffdeceit]

Hehe!

It's Terezi!

[aim_exorable]

I'm Chiron.

So do you want to make a souffle or not?

[sniffdeceit]

Do I want to make it?

I don't know how!

[aim_exorable]

But I do! I'll show you and then the dragon won't have to eat the hoofbeast.

[sniffdeceit]

Hmmmmmmmm....

[This clearly requires careful thought.]

Okay.

[aim_exorable]

Okay.

Then we'll meet in the place with the big coral.

[sniffdeceit]

...Umm.

Where's that?

[aim_exorable]

It's... I think it's in the middle of the city, or something.

[sniffdeceit]

In the exact middle?

What if I can't tell where that is?

[aim_exorable]

How could you not tell where the exact middle is?

[sniffdeceit]

Because this place is BIG.

[Pout.]

[aim_exorable]

Then use a map! Are you dumb?

[Whoops highblood rudeness]

[sniffdeceit]

I don't know how to read maps!

...But I'm not dumb! You're dumb.
