[Aha, he thought so. It was a stab in the dark, but with Moonblessed so often referring to place names expecting to be understood, Therion thought there might be some otherwise common thread of experience he doesn't share.]

Got it. Strange that there are so many of you so far from your home.

How do your countries get these names, anyway? They don't seem very descriptive.

... You know what, I'm not sure! I mean, I feel like it was probably discussed at one point during history class in school about how they were discovered and named as such by various explorers of the past, but it's been a long time since I last thought about what I learned from that particular subject.

[Danny had been way more interested in science and health than retaining everything he learned about history and the like.]

You're a scholar, then?

[In text, that reads like an innocuous question. In real life, Therion would ask with a period instead of a question mark and check for escape routes.]

[doctorize]

No, not really. I am interested in learning new things, sure, but I only actively seek it out if it's something that benefits my work as a doctor.

[bolderfell]

[I mean... his username has the word "doctor" right in it, Therion, how did you not see that coming.]

[bolderfell]

[He is, unfortunately, known to be a short-sighted thief.]

Guess not. Every time I turn, seems more of you pop up.

[doctorize]

It almost sounds like a bad thing when you say it like that. Do you not like doctors?

[bolderfell]

Don't like needing them. I'm sure you get that sentiment often enough.
