Yeah, well, unlike some face-pecking emus, he's actually pretty nicely tempered. He gets along with everyone he's seen so far.
[Aside from his little hissing fit at Isaac, but Isaac had been sort of threatening him at the time, so... you know, totally warranted.]
And I left him to guard Scott while I was gone and he did fine with that and Rue, who's a kid. I wouldn't leave him around a kid if I thought he'd hurt her. If your Loras [He was totally going to think of him as 'Lorasshole' now] can't look at him and see that he's about as threatening as a wet cat, then there's something wrong with that guy that pulling the stick out of his ass won't cure.
[ Ugh, it's not her Loras. And Stiles is definitely too flippant for his own good. ]
So you would judge everyone so harshly, simply for having a different experience from your own? [ A disapproving look. ] I promised you no harm would come to him from the people of my world, I do not think what I ask in return is so difficult.
[Stiles has died three times; twice here and once at home. Stiles really doesn't care about much in the way of threats, either from the gods or some jumped up knight who needs to stop riding his jousting lance.]
I judge people harshly for jumping to some worst case scenario over something innocuous after I told him not to worry about it. We're all jammed in here against our will and he's got a bug up his butt about a pet that's the size of a raccoon. We're fighting giants and trolls and have volcanoes erupting all over the place and he's worried about a baby dragon. I can turn him into a pile of ash in less than a minute, and it's the dragon he's worried about? Hale's good for making s'mores and lighting the fireplace.
[Sorry, Dany, but he was defensive over his bb. He'd lost too much here and was just starting to build up this circle of family and friends and he didn't want some gung-ho Lancelot screwing it up.]
[ She's not here to make enemies for the sake of a man she has no particular liking for, but this is not endearing Stiles to her at all. Her tone is chilly. ]
It is concern for the city that brought me here, not threats. Continue this spat Loras Tyrell if that is what you both desire, I have seen enough.
[ So with that she is going to turn to leave now. ]
That part of him that was ingrained to sort of... buckle when women were mad reared up and had him taking a step after her.]
Wait. Hold on.
[Gee, Stiles. Where did your balls go? Oh, right, you didn't have any.]
Look, I'm sorry, okay. I'm not... I'm not mad at you. I'm just really tired of people getting pissy at me for no good reason. If he'd had a problem with it, he could have come and talked to me. But he didn't. He just gave me the 'little boy' speech and went and bitched to you. Do you really think I'd be cool with a pet that just snacked on people for fun? Or that the gods would let me keep something like that? They're jerks. They turn people into foxes for shits and giggles.
[He lifted a hand to comb through his hair, Hale moving back up to his shoulder and clinging onto him.]
[ It's not enough to even make her pause, but she responds one last time without turning around. ] You forget, I don't know you at all. [ And that makes all of this more difficult for her to navigate. Her fellow kidnappees have clothed her, fed her, shared their knowledge - and that kindness is not wasted. But trust isn't a simple thing for her.
Stiles stole Drogon's image and cares nothing for what that means, she has no more time for someone like that. ]
[Hey, Stiles hadn't stolen anything. Rachel had been the one to draw him, and she'd never seen Drogon.
But he wasn't going to chase after her. This Dany wasn't the one he'd known and he didn't know what had happened to her, but he had bigger things to worry about than her possibly hurt feelings over something he hadn't done.]
