Sleeping dragon? Not so much.

[caelum_ignis_draconigena]

Who: Skyfire and whoever happens to find him.
What: He's sleeping outside while waiting for permission to set up a home, because he doesn't want to be a burden on the locals.
When: A couple of days after arrival, any time between the early evening and early morning.
Where: Random spots around the edge of town and the local forest areas.


It wouldn't kill him to sleep outside for a while, at least that's what Skyfire kept telling himself. During the day between the sun and walking around, he could ignore the cold, but he was finding that at night it was a different story.

Even though it wouldn't kill him, it didn't mean that it was a pleasant experience. Finding a place out if the wind wasn't too hard, but he was still feeling rather chilled. Being organic was really different from being his 'normal' self, he'd never realized just how sensitive organics were to different temperatures.

Being curled up with his wings covering as much as himself as he could manage made things somewhat better. Princess Celestia had been kind enough to agree to help find him somewhere he wouldn't be an inconvenience to the locals, so he thought he could handle being cold for a while... Still, he'd welcome a distraction as sleep was going to be rather difficult.

"You really think so?"

Skyfire looks just a touch embarrassed. He's never really had anyone react quite like this to him before... at least not that he can remember.

Nod nod.

“My home world has a lot of inorganic lifeforms, but the ones that can survive in space aren’t capable of escaping the gravity well. So your civilization is either a lot more advanced or you, personally, are extremely powerful.”

[caelum_ignis_draconigena]

"I would say more advanced, but then again, that could be a matter of opinion as well. We're older so we've had more time to develop as well." He pauses to consider that last statement and then shakes his head. "I wouldn't consider myself extremely powerful, just better suited for some jobs. There are Cybertronians stronger than I am, also faster, even larger, but generally our... body types tend to have a great influence on what we end up doing."

[onaroll]

...wait, he’s an alien robot and he’s called a Cybertronian? That’s a little on the nose, isn’t it?

“Ah, I see...it’s a lot like my world, then. What is it you do?”

Sorry on the late reply o///o

[caelum_ignis_draconigena]

"Well, I was a scientist, explorer and inventor... Now though I've become a bit of a 'Jack of all trades' so to speak..."

He didn't like to start listing off his skills, more so because it sounds like he's bragging than anything else. He'd learned a lot in the many many years he'd been stranded on Earth, so they've all been hard won but...

[onaroll]

“Oh! I was an explorer back on my world, too!”

She has something in common with an alien robot dragon starship. What an amazing day this is!

[caelum_ignis_draconigena]

His ears perk and twitch a little in her direction, obviously quite interested.

"You were? We'll have to swap stories sometime then? I'll admit I'd be interested in hearing about other places and beings."

[onaroll]

“Of course! If you want, I can tell you about the dragons of my world?”

[caelum_ignis_draconigena]

"That would be nice. I can't say I've ever actually met any of the dragons from the world I was living on, so I'm afraid I'll have little to share on that end... Perhaps I can tell you more about my original word instead?"

[onaroll]

Nod nod nod.

Her eyes are shining - this is an idea she likes!

[caelum_ignis_draconigena]

"Do you have time to stay and talk a while?" If she did, he'd curl up his tail and put a blanket over it so she could have a place to sit off of the ground.

((Ooc: Want to handwave their chat somewhat and have them meet again later?))

[onaroll]

“Oui!”

(ooc: works for me!)
