Big Guns For Bing-Gan

[Corwin]

"I could take that dragon... is what I'd like to say," Bing Gan replies, before dissolving into excited giggles. "This is actually a lot of fun. I can't remember the last time I saw a performance about fighting and dragons." Her laughter abating somewhat, she turns to look at him. "How about you? Do you actually like this sort of thing?"

[Kwokinator]

"I guess," Hao Long shrugs helplessly. "I mean, I don't really like fighting or anything, but this is just a show, so I guess it's not bad."

[Corwin]

She nods. "What do you like to do for fun, then?"

[Kwokinator]

"Nothing much, really," he shrugs. "I go around here and there."

[Corwin]

She nods. "I kinda do that, too, only on a much larger scale," she says with a crooked smile.

[Kwokinator]

"You mean going from town to town like you mentioned?" Hao Long asks. "Mind if I join you?"

[Corwin]

"Sure, but you'll have to keep up," she tells him. "I'm also not really sure if I'll be back through these parts any time soon, so...." She trails off, shrugging.

[Kwokinator]

"Oh well," Hao Long shrugs. "It's not like I haven't been to other places before."

"Unless..." he looks at Bing Gan. "You don't want me to go with you?"

[Corwin]

"I don't really mind," she repeats. "If you want to travel, it's all good."

[Kwokinator]

Hao Long sighed.

"Yeah, I guess I'll come alone.  So when're you leaving?"

[Corwin]

"Tomorrow morning." She shrugs again. "Seems like a bad idea to leave mid-day, unless you absolutely have to, so that's what I always do."

[Kwokinator]

"Why is it a bad idea to leave in mid-day?" Hao Long asks.

[Corwin]

"Superstition," Bing Gan immediately replies. "Grandpa always said it was a bad idea, and the one time I didn't follow his advice I ended up attacked by freakishly large pets and barely got away. So... bad idea."

[Kwokinator]

"Freakishly large pet?" he raises an eyebrow. "What freakishly large pet?"

[Corwin]

"It's a long and tragic story of abnormally large barn animals used as... pets... by crazy rural farmers." She shivers. "Don't ask."
