[A message appears in the journal, first a series of crossed out words and intelligible scribbles, then a harshly scrawled question. Someone seems to be having trouble finding the right words to express themselves today.]

~~What do you all do to- What happens when--~~

What do you do to take your mind off something? What are you supposed to do when there's something you just can't stop thinking about?

~~If there's any way to beat it out of me, that works too.~~

[Zan'nen's frown deepened. Such a stupid question, but the emptiness of his house was really weighing on his mind. The loss of his roommate, and everyone talking about being sent home and disappearing only made it more apparent. The kid he lived with was always so nervous, how the hell was he supposed to know if he was okay out there? Back on his world? Why wasn't their a way to find out?]

Also, I'd like to know who's still around that recognizes me, if anyone. I was gone for a while. So, hello to the rest of you too, I suppose. Anything major change recently I should know about?

[...]

That's it I guess.

People from your world? [That's... kinda unnerving Frey. Even if they are 'bad guys', killing them over and over again didn't sound healthy. Unless you just meant people in general?]

Not anything too big I hope. Hate to see you get crushed.

....It's complicated. [Hey 8| ]

The battledome doesn't let you get badly hurt, so... [this is a yes.]

[He'll take your word for it Frey.]

So you do get crushed. Nice.

I've never been crushed.

Dragon tails are rather large, though.

Wait. Wait. Dragons? You have dragons? Full-sized ones?

.....Well, yes.

[You don't?]

What color are they? [Are they green?]

The Salamanders are red, and the Ice Dragons are blue. The northern continent has far more, so I hear.

So they're not green then? Why aren't they green? [Green is his favorite color yo.]

I.... don't know. [Zan'nen why do you think he would know?]

Do they at least breathe fire then? And fly?

The Salamanders breath fire, and both types fly.

What do the other ones breathe? Ice?

Yes. [Thus the 'ice dragon' bit.]

That's stupid. How the hell do you breathe ice? The throat would freeze.

Magic, I suppose?

Don't give me a lame answer like that. There's more than just magic involved with these things, y'know. There's biology that goes along with it too. [At least, in his world there is.]

I know that, but beyond the fact that they can cast magic, have teeth and claws and try to eat you, I do not know how a dragon's body works.

Shouldn't you know at least know something about it if it's trying to eat you? Maybe it has a weak spot you could exploit. Maybe it's only aggressive during mating season. [Apparently the man likes dragons, Frey.]
