Permanent Catch-All Log

That is a very kind and generous offer, but I must inform you that I am already capable of such feats.

[It does not occur to Neuvillette that this is a very excited sales pitch.]

[ She might have been disappointed...if this information wasn't so exciting ]

I am more closely attuned to the element of Hydro - water, as you say - than any other on my home world, though I am not a spirit.

I see.

[ She's assuming he's either a human wizard or some other being she's never heard of, then. She's not sure whether his identity matters or not, but thinks back to all the fairy tales she's read anyway, her curiosity getting the better of her. ]

Are you a mermaid? Or a Kraken?

Wait. Krakens do not have hands, so you are probably not that one.

No, nothing like that.

[He's grown too used to being cagey about what he actually is, perhaps... but surely it can't do any harm in a place like this.]

Though I appear mostly human, my lineage is that of a dragon.

[ This is a very exciting development. ]

Do you kidnap princesses like the dragons in fairy tales do?

I beg your pardon?

Princesses! In fairy tales, dragons always seem to kidnap them. It is to give princes a chance to prove their strength and courage!

It is a very noble job, so I removed all the slayings from my books.

[ She may have a fundamental misunderstanding of those stories, but hey. No judgement???? ]
