When: Day 163, Afternoon
Where: Everywhere!
Rating: PG


Scenario A (New Camelot)
[Lugging back all of the things they'd gotten from Utgard isn't easy, but years of being Arthur's pack-mule has done wonders for Merlin's ability to handle and balance great loads. Of course, none of that exactly matters when the two, small forms that zoom out of his and Arthur's room and collide right into him.

Merlin's pretty certain one of them is Archimedes--he recognises the indignant screeches--but he doesn't have much time to ponder the identity of the second culprit before he goes tumbling to the floor with a yelp, scattering the packages every which way.]

Scenario B (All districts)
[Now that Merlin's figured out what his newest charge is--though not where she came from--Merlin's resigned himself to figuring out what, exactly, he's supposed to do with her. Unfortunately for him, the "short trip" around the city is nowhere near as easy and relaxed as he would have hoped.

For most of the afternoon, Merlin can be found in any of the districts, chasing after a wayward dragon when she goes swooping off to explore or wandering from shop to shop, letting the dragon sample a little of everything.]

[He's just about to agree to the tour, when the name mentioned makes him stop.]

Danaerys? [Merlin's brows quirk up in surprise.] The one with the long, blonde hair? I thought she'd gone back to her world already.

[samantha_grey]

Back. She's got two of her 'kids' with her these days. No memory of before, though, so it's pretty much the standard routine. I didn't get much of a chance to talk to her the first time, so I don't know what's different this time.

[dragonspeak]

Well, she's got two of her dragons now, for one. She only had one last time--Drogon, I think he was called.

[He looks thoughtful, merely saving the information for later.] I should stop by and visit her.

[samantha_grey]

I expect she'd appreciate it, though at the same time she was a little confused when I talked to her. I can only imagine how it feels to be told you've been here before and remember nothing.

[dragonspeak]

It's confusing enough, just trying to take this all in.

[One finger trails down the dragon's spine as he stares down at the street.] It would be awful, having to learn all of it again.

[samantha_grey]

[She nodded at that one hand near where the dragon was, but not quite reaching to touch. Her experiences with lizards like that were mixed at best. Still, it seemed friendly enough.]

It would be like starting the first time, but knowing that others you'd never met had expectations of you because of what you did before.
