[listen he won't question the whole "I fear nothing" because he gets it, but. what. omg.] Spiders? Really? I can't see that at all.

[bloodbiter]

[a small laugh]

When I was twelve I had to beg one of the sorcerers who worked for my father to find a spell that could deter them from the castle grounds. Prior to that I had to ask my sister to dispose of them whenever I glimpsed one.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[oooomgggg]

That's-- strangely adorable. I never would've guessed that. But didn't deterring the spiders away just bring in more bugs?

[bloodbiter]

Other insects never bothered me much. I'm not certain why.

[a small pause, recalling something, and then another chuckle]

I would use the word ridiculous rather than adorable. I remember the first time I went far from the castle, I was traveling through a forest and had to descend into a cave at one point, and I was very hesitant... This was after I already had to face off against an ogre, and I stood above the opening to the cave thinking, what if I see a spider there?

[an actual thing that happened, what a loser]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[he's laughing outright now he can't take it]

You never know-- maybe a big enough spider could've scared that ogre, too.

[bloodbiter]

[that gets an outright laugh from her]

Can you imagine? As large as they are, running away, knocking down trees in their wake to escape a creature smaller than my finger?

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[oh my god stop he cant take that image he's trying to muffle his laughter behind his hand]

Yelling for someone else to come take care of it while they climb on a stump in fear, half the forest taken down already?

[bloodbiter]

[so many people are dead and this is the conversation they're choosing to have]

Throwing livestock around wildly while it aims to kill it or startle it away...

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[murders don't hurt until Friday this is fine]

Running straight into a spider web and screeching at high decibels to get it off, scaring off all the wild life...

[bloodbiter]

Finding refuge in a dragon's cave and cowering there until someone comes to help them.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

And then it turns out the dragon is scared of spiders too.

[adrien plz]

[bloodbiter]

[this is so dumb she laughs again]

At least they would have the good fortune of being able to fly in that scenario, I suppose.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

The spider jumps and the dragon flies away forever. Our arachnid hero.

[make them stop]

[bloodbiter]

[muffles her laughter with a hand]

Off to a kinder island filled with creatures who don't possess eight legs.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

To the lands of permanent winter it is!

[bloodbiter]

I say kinder and your first thought is permanent winter?

[monsieurchatastrophe]

That's the only place without spiders, and you also said that.

[bloodbiter]

Why would that be the only place without spiders?

[monsieurchatastrophe]

Dragons can't live in the ocean, Adelina. That's just silly.

[/STRAIGHTFACED]

[bloodbiter]

...Of course they can.

[#just canon things]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[... okay, you got him there, he shrugs]

Ooor they can. I was just guessing. Are you sure you don't have ocean spiders, too?

[bloodbiter]

[shrugs]

I know there was once a huge winged crab who could breathe fire lying deep in the ocean... I suppose that spiders would not be any stranger.

[that's normal, right]

i forgot about this thread with all the drama tbh

[monsieurchatastrophe]

...Why was it living the ocean if it could breathe fire?

[this is what adrien gets hung up on]

[bloodbiter]

Maybe it preferred the water?

[she doesn't know ask the primordial crab monster???]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

That's kind of weird.

[BUT THE GIANT CRAB ITSELF ISN'T?]
