a little young for that

[alicornucopia]

There is a red-eyed teenage boy - or so it would seem - positively interrogating the bar.

"Redreed wine?"

Aren't you a little young for that?

"I don't actually want any right now, but you know what it is?"

Of course.

"That... is interesting." He taps his fingers on the bar. "All right - I do, actually, want a chocolate iced planet."

And he gets a little square pastry, frosting on the top, and turns on his barstool to watch the comings and goings.

"Couldn't tell you. I'd need more to go on than having met you to see if Draconic has the information tucked away in it for your world too."

[jellyinthemix]

"I wouldn't expect you to. I can look up the likely sources myself if I become sufficiently curious."

[alicornucopia]

Kaylo nods. "I wonder if this place can translate Draconic," he says idly. "Does this sentence make sense to you?"

[jellyinthemix]

"Yes. Do other magical translators usually fail on that language?"

[alicornucopia]

"Like you didn't even cast anything," says Kaylo. "You can be under a sophisticated enough spell that you can listen to crystals in Alteisec and write a letter in Kandaph and speak Sengo and dance Flytwirl and figure out your taxes in Verian glyphs all at the same time and Draconic would be so much nonsense."

Giles shrugs. "Milliways."

[alicornucopia]

"Apparently!" says Kaylo. "Whatever, your language is interesting, I'll go on speaking it."

[jellyinthemix]

"Interesting how?"

[alicornucopia]

"Bigger vocabulary than most. Good aesthetics. I never spoke it before."

[jellyinthemix]

He grins. "I am unjustifiably proud."

[alicornucopia]

Kaylo laughs.
