Moonstone Quarry L.O.V.E./E.V.O.L.

i...just realized that technically they're in south teekon so therefore drogon has no idea what he's talking about considering he generally stays north of the great bear wilderness. *clearly never looks at the map very often & is a derp* lmao. xD

As she points out to him what he’d said — and clearly Drogon had been paying no attention — he had gotten his sense of direction confused when it went from his mind to his lips earlier. “Ah,” And Dragon remembers that he is further south than he normally goes. “Well I meant south. This is further south than I normally come.” Without any particular reason aside, perhaps, from that strange encounter with that girl ( the one that called him Roarke ) he typically gives the Tuktu Hinterlands a wide berth. He was a bit preoccupied, after all, with trying to figure out how they were going to get back up from the Quarry ( that’s his excuse and he’s sticking with it! ). His mistake all but forgotten about as Witchbaby entertains him by answering his questions he feels the perplexity on his muzzle when she states that she doesn’t know the name of where she came from but he — to his own surprise most of all — doesn’t pry.

She beckons him up and he joins her with calculated steps, testing it beneath his weight. Drogon was, admittedly, still in that stage where he’s aware but also not aware of his own weight or height, and usually he’s only aware when it’s brought into stark contrast with an adult; though it’s not exactly the best measure instrument as adults come in varying shapes and sizes and Dragon never sticks around anyone long enough to use them as a makeshift measuring instrument. He knows, regardless, that he has to be nearing his full height, and suspects that within the next month or two he will have reached it and be near indistinguishable from the adults around him. Once he is sure the earth will not crumble and give way beneath him he relaxes a bit. Not a lot because ….they have plenty of path to go yet but it’s a good start.
