Hydra funtime (Surraruthru)

[Iron Dragoon]

I'll pay attention, but feign boredom with it, simply for show. I'll do my best to do so with some obviousness so I don't outright offend her, but well, Dragon Pride. Surraruthru has interest because he recognizes the potential for profit improvement from it.

[Anastasia]

Okay, make a Bluff check.

[Iron Dragoon]

> roll 1d20+33 Bluff
<Serith> Iddy roll for Serith < 34 > [d20=1]

Well, she's definitely going to pick up on that I'm pretending not to pay attention.

[Anastasia]

> roll 1d20+7 Someone lacks ranks in sense motive
<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 27 > [d20=20]

As it goes on, Bubbles becomes sardonic and talks down to you. Like a child, actually. "Now look at this one. Nice, bright cut and shape. See how clean the hems are? Good boy!" she says in a sweet voice.

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru reaches out with a claw towards the item slightly threateningly.

[Anastasia]

Bubbles reaches out and thwap! A gentle tap to the nose, "Bad dragon, baaaad," she says, smile brittle. "Now now, be a good dragon and tell me why clean hems are good for this style."

[Iron Dragoon]

"Because you're convinced so."

[Anastasia]

Bubbles sighs through her nose, closing her eyes and breathing in and out a few times. "No. Do you have any grasp of line or shape theory, or how the eye perceives things?"

[Iron Dragoon]

"Outside of piles of gold and gems? Not particularly. None of the creatures in my grove had any use for clothes. It wasn't until I came here that I saw people wearing them. Mine are what was useful from our hoard before Lifasa fell."

[Anastasia]

"Of course not. Well then, back to even more basics," Bubbles claps her hands together, "We'll have to start you from the very beginning."

[Iron Dragoon]

"Well... Let's try to get this done quickly. I have preparations to make for whatever mission I get assigned..."

Surraruthru realizes the woman will not be deterred and simply gives her what she wants to speed the process up.

[Anastasia]

From here it's a long couple of hours learning about basic fashion. It finally ends, freeing you.

Anything else you want to get done right now, Surraruthru?

[Iron Dragoon]

Not really. I can't think of anything I reasonably have time to do. Maybe get some info on what people think we're going to face so I can tailor spells for it.

[Anastasia]

Depends on which group you're in. Do you know if you're joining the main force or the super small strike force to get Willah?

[Iron Dragoon]

No idea. I haven't been keeping up with the other threads and no one's said anything to me yet.
