[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.]

[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.

[aim_exorable]

If you don't know how to read maps, then that means you're dumb! I'm really smart, I can make a lot of amazing things!

[Ignoring the fact that he doesn't know how to really read maps either, but how hard could it be???]

[sniffdeceit]

Does not! It just means I haven't been taught.

I bet I could read them real good!

[aim_exorable]

Well, first you have to get one. I bet the weird aliens here could find you one.

[sniffdeceit]

But they're [She lowers her voice.] strange.

[aim_exorable]

No, it's okay, they're all really soft compared to trolls! [He gets a conspiratorial tone.] One alien even told me that in her world, the adults raise the wigglers and everyone lives together in one hive!

[sniffdeceit]

[Gasp!]

But wouldn't they eat each other?

[aim_exorable]

They don't! The adults just feed the children and protect them and do all sorts of stuff that lusii usually do! Kind of.

[sniffdeceit]

So what does a lusus do, then?

[aim_exorable]

They don't have any! The adults do everything.

[sniffdeceit]

But how do they have time for adult things??
