Seventh Mercy - Video

[ofgoldenfoil]

I have gotten bored with my old job. I have learned all of the streets and the short-cuts of the city, which was entertaining to do, but now I want a change of pace.

Are there any other jobs a dragon can provide his uses?

I could imagine any number of things. You are able to take on a human form, correct?

video;

[ofgoldenfoil]

No, but my device can put on an illusion of me being a human like it did on several past missions.

video;

[dawningsun]

Ah, curious.

I suppose you'd be able to do nearly anything a human would, then. But why limit yourself to that?

We've not met. I am Kirian Dawningsun. And who might you be, if you don't mind my asking?

[ofgoldenfoil]

I can't write well nor can I flip the pages without tearing the book apart. This puts me at a disadvantage from most occupations, I hear.

My name is Aurican.

video;

[dawningsun]

I see.

A pleasure to meet you, Aurican. Forgive me for asking, but are you a young drake, then?

Video

[wolfuncaged]

[Fenris does not look impressed. Dragons are not fun things, talking ones? Even less so]

I was not aware beasts like you required employment.

Video

[ofgoldenfoil]

[ Aurican bristles. ]

I am not a beast.

Video

[wolfuncaged]

Then you are a mage? I have only met one with an ability to turn into a dragon.

Video

[ofgoldenfoil]

No, I am not. I am Aurican, a dragon of the gold clan.

Video

[wolfuncaged]

I do not care which clan you are from, you are a dragon and as such a danger to those around you.

[lazyinlove]

[Okay. That's...new.]

checked the want ads?

video

[ofgoldenfoil]

The want ads? What are those?

sure, he'll switch the video on if you want, mr. dragon.

[lazyinlove]

You know the part of the morning paper that catches fire when you sneeze? They're probably in there.

hey typing is hard when your claws are as big as butcher knives

[ofgoldenfoil]

I do not sneeze fire.

[ Except he totally did when he was mildly sick during the plague. ]

They list occupations?

...staying on your good side.

[lazyinlove]

Probably?

(video)

[braavado]

Whoa, wait. There are dragons in this place?

[That's actually...pretty cool. Not everyday you get to see one of those, considering they've been wiped out where she's from. The excitement's enough to make her temporarily forget her cloudy mood.]

What kind of job does a dragon do?

(video)

[ofgoldenfoil]

Oh, yes. I'm not the only one, there are few more here as well. I can't speak for them, but I work as a mail courier.

(video)

[braavado]

[And...yeah that's her enthusiasm abruptly draining out.]

You're a dragon and you work as a mail courier?

[That's like a serious waste of your cool factor.]

(video)

[ofgoldenfoil]

[ He thinks so too, which is why he has become so bored with his job. ]

Yes. At the time I haven't learn flight and I didnt know how to read. I was stuck with very few options.

(video)

[braavado]

How about now? I can't help you with the flying, but I can give you some reading lessons!

[She fails to mention that they'll all probably be in Chinese characters.]

C'mon you're a dragon. You can't be stuck as a mail courier!

[video]

[sword_dancer_e]

Amazing, having always wanted to meet a dragon, you are the third I have seen since I have arrived here, Lar.

As for your question, what sort of experience do you have?

[video]

[ofgoldenfoil]

I work as a mail courier currently. I can read but I lack the dexterity to write outside of this tablet. I can fly and breathe fire and I am immune to fire as well.

[video]

[sword_dancer_e]

Hmm.

Are there any barriers beside dexterity for work? Such as pride, size, or so forth?

[video]

[ofgoldenfoil]

[ Pride? ]

Size is often the issue. More often than not I have eat outside, so working indoors is not always possible.

[video]

[sword_dancer_e]

[Having spoke to a certain black dragon, he's got an odd image of dragons currently.]

Well, barring objections you have, and the boredom that might ensue, you may speak to the Schvartem, they might need aid for the forge.

[Though, this might not fit well with a dragon's pride...]

I-- Have also considered patrolling, and speaking with others about such things, would this be of interest to you, Lar?
