who said a crococat is a reptile where are you even getting that from?!! theyre a kind of cat! they have fur all over and then like... a hard belly? i don’t know how to describe it besides dragons are reptiles technically probably and they have fur. just not everywhere. badgerfrogs have a little fur too although i guess they’re amphibians not reptiles......
[ He never thought about these things much. Damn it. ]
so sorry for thinking a crococat was a reptile. [He's being very sarcastic and he tries to explain that to Zuko but right now he's just overwhelmed by these weird animals.]
badgerfrog platypus bear...weaselnewt??? is that one????
weaselnewt....?!! are you just making up words now?! what the hell is that!?!
ok i have a weird animal question for you ostriches and horses what's the difference i mean we have ostrich-horses but i can't imagine how to separate them and kaoru just laughed at me when i asked him once
[ excessive punctuation mark club!!!!!! Hikaru's being converted........!! ]
theyre supposed to be one animal!!! ostrich-horses are super common, except in like. the north and south poles. too cold. but most everywhere else. we use them as a beast of burden, as mounts in war, to ride on for transportation, we even eat them..... very important animal in general, the world over
[ He even draws a sketch on his phone's Paint app, but who can say if it's good or bad, because what a ridiculous looking creature?! It's a horse. But an ostrich. He's not kidding. ]
it’s an OSTRICH-HORSE..!! horses are those animals that pull the carriages here right back home a dragon-moose would do that ostrich-horses are smaller.. better for riding, not strong pulling. but theyre real why would i make any animal up?!!
[ But Hikaru insisting it isn’t real even after Zuko’s careful illustration kind of makes him want to make up an animal later just to fuck with him… ]
a dragon-moose has nothing to do with a dragon!! Totally different animals dragon-moose have those long whiskers like dragons thats why theyre called that i think many animals in my world are named for how they look so if they look like another animal somehow that might be in the name like a cat owl has a face that looks a little like a cat but it’s a bird same deal with a dragon-moose looks like a dragon and a saber-tooth moose lion
[ Hikaru must be certain Zuko’s fucking with him… But he’s not… ]
did you just say saber tooth moose lion? that's not real. that's literally three different animals in one! who just puts three animals into one animal???
i'll introduce you to sokka and tell him to bring his familiar ive wanted to introduce you to sokka for a while anyway bring yoshiha and maybe she'll start talking to sokka's saber tooth moose lion
it's a baby moose lion though keep in mind usually theyre huge
can't believe you're telling me to take my kitsune to see a sabertooth moose lion. that is a sentence i just read with my own two eyes. that is a sentence i just typed out. what the hell has my life become?
anyway.
i feel like it'd take more to crack her. she's too smart to just let another talking animal or whatever break her silence like that. water torture might have to do.
[Did he just imply he'd water torture his familiar? Yeah. He did.]
your life has become more interesting?? you can say that much at least
[ Haha Zuko's got jokes... :| ]
water torture. thats something you really just typed..
[ But Hikaru's got jokes, too... which are more disarming. But still funny. ]
i don't think zunyan can talk he doesnt seem smart enough for the long con like that.... azula's dragon might be, though. could be he's just under zuko's influence and following his lead....
[ Wait has Zuko ever mentioned to Hikaru that Azula named her dragon Zuko?! Because that's funny, even if Zuko himself doesn't think so. ]
[It would also mean saying goodbye to a lot of important people he had met here but that isn't something he wants to think too much about. That's something to think about later.]
wait. zuko's influence? what are you doing with the familiars?
[ He's gotta go rule a country. This is his otherworldly impossible vacation. He'll never live a life like this again. But he still feels duty bound at his core. ]
i mean zunyan and azula's dragon are friends.... they've gotten along since the moment we both arrived.. and zun copies him sometimes i can tell like when zuko does something bad like scratches the furniture or starts a fire or something, i've seen that half the time zun watches him and then does it too or looks like he's thinking about it at least when i can stop him in time theyre really.... a lot.. sometimes.
yeah fire lord king guy-san. probably not the same at all [It's an affectionate nickname.
but at least 'Zuko' makes more sense now.] wait she named her dragon zuko? okay. that's a weird choice.
but yeah. kicchi and yoshiha are like that too. it's like they knew each other and were happy to be together again when they saw each other? but yoshiha is a total asshole and kicchi is really well-behaved in comparison but even she kind of goes along with yoshiha even though kicchi has her nine tails and everything? it's weird. familiars are weird.
“fire lord king guy-san………” taichi once called me lord of the hotsquat fire lord king guy-san is preferable.
[ Also preferable over Uncle Dragon. He’s about it. ]
and yeah azula named her dragon zuko as a joke i dont think it’s funny but our dragons act like your foxes it sounds like they acted happy to see each other right away when we arrived and they play and cuddle and sleep together all the time but.. Azula’s dragon is mean and bites me for no reason and messes with me when im sleeping her relationship with her dragon isnt like mine with zun though zun and i are so close hes affectionate and kinda goofy half the time but he copies her dragon often too which can be aggravating.. they make trouble in the house together.. we’ve wondered if theyre also siblings. do you think your foxes might be??
no taichi was right. lord of the hotsquat is way better. [You cursed yourself there, Zuko.]
do you think she's training it to do that? don't know anything about dragons, especially this place's weird dragons, but maybe he does that because she thinks it's funny? she seems like the type...
but maybe. i don't know if kicchi and yoshiha are siblings. kicchi has to be way older since she's got all nine tails.
no dont you dare start with that [ The gate's open. Done deal, Zuko, sorry; that's your new name for a while. ]
if azulas training her dragon like that then it's unconscious maybe i dont think she'd do that now.. maybe a past azula. but we get along now. more or less. besides i dont know if you can train a dragon, it's not like a poodle-monkey in a cute little outfit doing tricks, it's a fucking dragon.... we just kind of let them do whatever they want??
[ Which is part of why you've not been invited over to their room ever, Hikaru. Scorchmark and scratchmark central. ]
sorry but it's seared into my mind~ [You really did walk right into that one, Zuko.]
but then if she wanted to stop you from being bothered then wouldn't that be happening as well? just saying. even if you're just letting them do what they want (which seems really bad because don't they breathe fire or something?) just seems weird if only hers is terrorizing anybody but what do i know
[Don't start drama, Hikaru.]
yeah the older and more powerful they get, the more tails they have. yoshiha only has the one. who knows? maybe she's trying to prove something by being the most annoying thing ever.
[ At least he recognizes he walked into it. He's being worn down over time, Hikaru... ]
i didn't say she wants to stop me from being bothered i said she probably doesn't want to try to bother me on purpose there's a difference and as for hers being the only dragon terrorizing anybody, i think it just comes down to them having different personalities..... just like us. azula's more violent than i am, so makes sense her dragon might have similar moods, i dunno. besides. zun absolutely terrorizes people, too.. just in different ways... like he steals things all the time.. even from strangers... :| so he can be sometimes aggravating, as well.... >:| but what can we do, y'know
[ Hikaru may be the first person talking sense into him to try to train their dragons into some better behavior, because, yes, they do breathe fire or something. A lot. They're not good pets. They're dragons, of course they're not! That's half his point! But maybe... something can be done to improve things. Maybe. ]
foxes grow more tails as they get older.... and you think my world's animals are weird.
[Hikaru would still say that Uncle Dragon is much, much better.]
i don't see the difference but i don't understand your relationship at all [The challenge is that Hikaru and Kaoru have such an abnormal relationship that other sibling relationships are ones he cannot understand on any level that runs on something other than shallow.] kicchi is nothing like kaoru and yoshiha is nothing like me [She is exactly like him.] no idea if familiars are like their owners. it'd make sense if they did. familiars are just annoying. can't believe the king here told me to ask yoshiha about why i'm here? like she wouldn't just laugh.
it's a myth. not the truth. that's like...mythological foxes. spirit foxes. real foxes don't grow more tails the older and stronger they get.
we dont have a normal sibling relationship..... its fine..
i dont think zun is anything like me!! [ He also absolutely is. ] but itd make sense that some violent dragon who bites me for no reason would call my sister here, right
did you ask yoshiha why youre here you should do it
your foxes are the first foxes ive seen so i wouldnt know too bad you cant see the real dragons in my world itd scare the shit out of you
