Video - Something borrowed

[beitangmoran]

[The feed starts in the rather nondescript living room of one of the apartments new arrivals get directed to when they first make it here. Home decor hasn't yet been a priority since Moran has arrived, and even if it were, he would leave it entirely to his more savvy housemate.

Addressing a video feed is a bit weird, because he is just talking at a machine, but his face is nothing but pleasantly inquisitive. He knows how to hide discomfort.]

Greetings.

I am looking for someone who could possibly point me in the right direction. I wish to have a fan custom made.

It needs to look like this.

[He grabs a fan on the nearby table and opens it, and though trial and error for a few seconds, manages to angle it so the motif is visible.

The fan is dark green silk, with a delicate drawing of a lotus flower and clouds in white on it. After a few seconds, he turns it around to show that the reverse has exactly the same color, except the décoration there is Chinese characters, also written in white. A few more seconds and he closes it and puts it away.]

I need it to be exactly identical, except for the colors which need to be reversed. I would be very grateful if anyone knows of a maker who could accomplish this.

Yes, all of the dragons from my world are fire breathers. They grow to have great wings and the hue of their scales are as varied as nature itself.

(Drogon has beautiful black scales with hints of crimson. He is also much smaller than he used to be.)

I would like to see one in the water.

(She makes a small sound of assent.)

I'm trying to learn other languages, so if you find any volumes in your native tongue, I would like to see them.

That is extremely interesting. And you said he is here with you? If it is not too presumptuous, would it be possible to meet him?

[He is careful to refer to the dragon the same way she has, since she called him her child and clearly treats him as a lot more than a pet.]

Most dragons are thought to be myths where I am from, so although we have multiple drawings and stories of them, I have never seen an actual one myself. Most of our stories say they do not like to associate with humans.

I will keep an eye out for anything that might be of interest. In fact, I am trying to find a way to disable this automatic translation they have going on. very useful for daily communications of course, but not so much for learning.

As long as you don't wish him harm, I don't mind. (Drogon is more important to her than her life. He is the only one - besides Ser Jorah, Missandei, Greyworm, Rhaegal and Viserion - that has been undeniably loyal to her, for good or ill. He has forgiven her too - without her having to ask. Daenerys wants to be worthy of him more than anything.)

They had become like myths too in Westeros. They were thought to be extinct until my three sons hatched in the fire.

What can I do for you in return? (She smiles at the idea.) I wouldn't mind hearing many languages and learning in that manner either.

I wouldn't dare, Lady Daenerys.

[He really has no reason to wish harm on any creature at all.]

And I daresay that letting me meet your child is reward enough, although you may find some of my questioning about him tedious, so I will apologize in advance for that.

My language does require mastering different tones to speak correctly or else one risks saying something very different than one intended even if the sounds are the same. However, it is hard to demonstrate when you would hear my words in your own language, while I hear yours in mine.
