This is officially the best curse day ever. Watching the dinosaurs is so much fun. Watching people attempt to fight the dinosaurs is even more fun. Anyone want to come watch them with me? I bet Tosh would have. I found a really safe spot, I promise.

Can't be too careful around velociraptors.

Oh, and I have a webcam so that those of you who are missing this...don't have to miss it, I guess.

You're really going near those things?

I'm not that close.

[And on the video feed, curious stegosaurus is much closer than he thinks.]

Goodness, be careful! There's one right there!

What?

Ooooops.

[Camera suddenly jerks upward, as if he's just rappelled up into a tree.]

There. No problem

You're going to get yourself into a great deal of trouble, acting this way.

You're going to get hurt, you know...

You worry too much. I'm being careful. I wouldn't want to end up in a position where I'd have to be saved after all...

[The stegosaurus is moving away and he's obviously preparing to come down from the tree.]

Good, because I really don't feel like facing down another dragon--dinosaur, honestly, whatever those things are--because you did something silly and needed saving.

I'm not doing anything si--

Wait, you've already faced down a dragon?

Date: 2009-02-27 04:29 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] primrosella.livejournal.com
In a manner of speaking, yes. I agreed to be one's dinner once.

What in the world did you do that for?

Look, it's only some triceratops. They're really very peaceful.

[Yes, with big pointy horns.]

So that everyone else that I cared about wouldn't be.

...Those things have horns like a troll and you mean to say they're peaceful?

They're a little large.

Of course they're large! They're dinosaurs!

[Kind of still stuck up a tree with a stegosaurus nosing around below.]

This one's an herbivore anyway. Only eats plants.

The dragons back home are bigger.

... if it's so peaceful, then why are you up a tree?

Dragons? Do they breathe fire.

Well, it still has a huge spiky tale that it's waving around.

They do when they need to. Mine do, too.

Ahhh.

Fire-lizards, actually, but they're close cousins. They're just smaller, really, and not quite as smart.

*random squeaking and chirping in the background*

.... but still easily offended, I'm afraid.

That's still really cool.

Um, cool is a slang term. It means I'm impressed, that I think those must be really great pets to have.

[Have a video of a herd of triceratops.]

I'm still learning a good deal of slang. It isn't the same on Pern.

They're interesting, but I'm not sure I'd call them pets.

...... what were those?

Companions? Friends? How smart are they?

Triceratops. They also eat plants.

Yes and yes, and a bit more, in fact.

They're intelligent, for animals. The bunch I have Impressed on me when they hatched, so they're... linked to me, I guess you could say. They're able to let me know where they've been and what they've been doing, they can run simple errands for me as well as fetch things for me as long as it's small enough for them to carry. Things like that, mostly.

.... they're amazing. I've never seen horns like that!
