Written to Eseme's prompt to my new "WTF?" Prompt Call.  Dragons Next Door 'Verse, definition(s) at bottom. 



You heard things about this city, moving in.

People from nearby cities would whisper about the dragons and the ogres and other, darker creatures.

They’d talk about the pixies

Well, I hope that's the start of a good relationship despite the sketchiness.

Half-dweomer? That sounds super-awkward with a large side of inadequate training ...

[aldersprig]

Yeah, I’m not sure Violet knows what she’s talking about when it comes to her schoolmate ;-)

And it might be a very entertaining relationship......

[kelkyag]

Going to write more of it?

(Or more of Aud in noir detective mode? Or ...)

It’s not in the queue right now, but there’ll be another vote coming up in a while.

Of course, there’s always that “tip me” button ;-)

Historically, twisting your arm for more Dragons has not worked out terribly well -- author floon matters. Possibly for other things.

What’s a flooon?

Ah, sorry, extremely local slang/jargon. It's the term the larp staff I was on used for "the stuff that gets (the best parts of) the game written" -- inspiration, enthusiasm, writing energy, drive, whatever it takes. One may be able to put together adequate work-a-day mods & encounters without it, but they're not going to shine.

...why do I get the feeling that the CCC is about to experience several of the Plagues of Egypt, or some close equivalent?

Also, if I discovered that I had Tinies living in my walls, I suspect "stronger than wine" would be in order as well.

How many houses have no Tinies living in the walls? Most of the houses we've seen do, and the treaties allow for it. Violet isn't in Smokey Knoll, but that doesn't seem to have deterred.

I sense a fruitful partnership to come. After all, she hardly bats an eye to see a little man blatantly going for her wine!
