Does anyone here practise yoga? There are a number of couple's positions with which I would like to experiment, but I do not think the locals here are quite ready to handle a mechanical body such as mine.

I am also very happy to initiate the inexperienced among you who would like to join me regardless! I promise to be a gentle teacher, and that you will find the experience most satisfying, both physically and spiritually.

I look forward to meeting you all. ( _:::_ )b

That is correct- and I would be happy to teach you. Where do you feel it most strongly in your body, my friend?

[decisiveconquest]

(She can't help smiling at the welcome. Not that he can see it.)

My upper back, between my shoulder-blades. It was worse when I was riding for long hours.

[tekhartha]

I see! As I understand it, horseriding takes a great deal of physical strength- it is little wonder you are suffering in the aftermath.

Should you find the yoga too uncomfortable to begin with, I can also offer palliative massages.

I rode horses and my dragon. (The posture is similar, however she has to press herself closer to Drogon's back so she isn't blown off. The scars on her hands are from clinging to his ridges and scales.)

You are very practiced in this, I see. My handmaid would give me massages and they did help.

[tekhartha]

A dragon! Remarkable! The only dragon I have ever seen was not entirely corporeal, and far too small for riding regardless. [Though he's sure Genji has tried at least once in his life.] Are they here with you now?

And thank you. When I began my journey I made it my business to learn as many ways to alleviate the suffering of others as I could. :)

[decisiveconquest]

He is too small to be ridden now. When we came here, some sort of magic or power shrunk him. I keep hoping he will grow. (But a much smaller Drogon is better than no Drogon at all.)

His name is Drogon. (She is proud of her boy and she feels closer to him.)

I cannot think of a finer goal. There is too much suffering everywhere.

[tekhartha]

Smaller in stature, but not in dignity, I am sure. I would love to meet him one day- or at least see a photograph of him, iif you have one.

[all dragons are beautiful precious creatures and he will treasure them pls send pics]

I am always glad to meet a kindred spirit! We must all play our part if we are to make the world a better place.

[decisiveconquest]

(For his sake, she switches to video and Drogon is a little too close until she gently coaxes him backwards. He is a handsome boy!)

The part I am meant to play...eludes me. But I have hope I will find it.

[Exceptionally handsome! She can't see it, but he's clapping his hands together delightedly. Those frills!!

If she's switched to video, he should too, all shiny chrome and glowing enthusiasm.]

What a magnificent creature you are, Drogon! No wonder your mistress is so proud of you. [His head tilts only a fraction, but doubtless she'll feel his attention shift to her.] I have no doubt you will, my friend, while your heart remains open and your spirit willing.

I do not believe I caught your name. I am Zenyatta.

(He is...a surprise. Daenerys is glad she can fall back on her old lessons of propriety. He has been so nice and she doesn't want to offend him by staring like a buffoon.

Drogon clearly understands that he is being praised and his tail swishes from one side to the other. Daenerys rests her cheek against the dragon's forehead, causing him to rumble happily.)

As long as I have him, I have hope for a better future. It's a pleasure to meet you, Zenyatta. I am Daenerys.

[tekhartha]

[No offense taken. Zenyatta is well aware that his appearance can be anything from surprising to frightening, depending on who happens to be viewing it for the first time. As reactions go, Daenerys is really quite restrained.

also that's adorable]

The pleasure is all mine. I hope that our paths cross soon, my friend- it seems we will have much to discuss.

[decisiveconquest]

(She swore long ago to never judge anyone on their appearance. Some of the roughest looking men have turned out to be her greatest allies. Zenyatta is...different...from anyone she has ever encountered, but so what? He has already named her "friend".)

I have no doubt that we will. (The little dragon turns his head and chirps at Zenyatta. He wants to meet him too.) You don't seem frightened of him.
