Along with this, it appears there are new areas opened on the ship. It seems you have more exploring to do. The robot in the cafeteria has prepared another breakfast of various foods.

No. Well. You said it took you weeks, so I kind of thought the defeating part would be a bit longer than that.

[also yes sure adrien absolutely killed the dragon and didn't ride along on it like they were on a magic carpet ride. yep definitely murder]

[bloodbiter]

Oh. Well...

[how to explain this easily]

Well, first she kidnapped me, and every time I tried to leave when she was sleeping she was too easily roused. I finally managed to escape after wounding her, but then she was more determined than I had imagined and followed me to bring me back. At that point I had little choice.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

Why did she... Oh, because you're a princess.

[adrien don't just accept fairy tale logic like that i don't care that you're a magical girl]

[bloodbiter]

[dismantles his fairy tale logic for him]

Er, no, because I was the first person she happened to come across. She wasn't particularly picky, just lonely, as they typically are.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

... Dragons are lonely?

[oh, THAT he questions]

[bloodbiter]

Yes. That's why they keep prisoners for weeks or months at a time.

[which would be okay if they didn't inevitably murder them in the end but you know]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[...]

Can't they just hang out with other dragons?

[bloodbiter]

You would think so, wouldn't you? But they dislike their own kind.

[dragons are the worst it's accepted by everyone including dragons]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

Oh. So how do they... multiply?

[adrien you can say the word procreate come on. do it. ask about dragon sex]

[bloodbiter]

They haven't for quite some time, to my knowledge. There are under ten of them left if I'm recalling correctly. They live very long and few are willing to fight them, however.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

I can guess why. You'd think something that tough would be a bit smarter, though.

[bloodbiter]

[she shakes her head]

Oh, she was incredibly clever until the end. It was rather frustrating.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

No, no, I meant as a species. I'm sure the one who got you was clever enough, to keep you there for weeks!

[adrien she's not offended you don't have to be apologetic]

[bloodbiter]

Placing a boulder that weighed several tons in the mouth of the cave was rather foolproof, that much is true.

[smh]

Well, clever or not, I imagine they won't be around for a great deal longer. It will be a relief.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

... A boulder? How did you leave?

[bloodbiter]

Oh, well... She left at one point to go hunting, and when she returned she moved it to gain entry. I ran when she pulled it away from the entrance.

[it was 100% not that simple]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

And then decapitated her?

[HE REMEMBERS THAT PART OK]

[bloodbiter]

No, that was later. I left, and that was that, but she was more determined than I anticipated. She followed me and found me while I was in the midst of another battle, which was rather inconvenient, and I knew that if she took me back it was unlikely that I would leave.

[stop??? being so casual about this???]

I didn't decapitate her, though, only stabbed her in the neck. I doubt my sword would have been able to cut her entire head off, she was rather large.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

... She kidnapped you and then stalked you? I know you said dragons were lonely, but that's incredibly clingy for something that you said wasn't picky.

[what the fuck is adelina's life]

[bloodbiter]

Prideful as well. I may have...

[ugh.]

Stabbed her in the leg on my way out. She would not have let that rest.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

...That explains that. [he thinks about it for a second and can't help but ask:] Did she see you leave and that's why you had to stab her?

[or was it just revenge]

[bloodbiter]

Well, no, not precisely. You see, when she moved the boulder she was right outside of the opening of the cave. I had to delay her enough that I could actually move past her... I did not realize she would follow after me.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

You didn't think she'd be mad after that?

[bloodbiter]

No, I knew she would be angry.

[sighs]

All the same, if I was awful and kidnapped someone, then continually underestimated them until they escaped and stabbed me while leaving... I might also consider that I misjudged them and they would injure me further if I tried to retrieve them.
