First Fear | Action

[unstiff]

[ Four doesn't have much use for the ims, not yet anyway. Instead, he'd rather explore, get the lay of this place first hand. No one would realize it to look at him, but he is infinitely glad to be back in a somewhat familiar setting. It's not Camp Jupiter, but it's not constantly moving around. It's not endangering anyone. It's safe. That's something that Four hasn't felt in more than a year. Sure, it's far more relaxed than what he's accustomed to (and he's not entirely sure how he feels about that) but it's a camp environment and he's been told that there are campers here that he knows. It's not home, but it's close enough for the moment.

Come bother the new camper, don't let the fact that he's stalking around with a scowl on his face dissuade you. He doesn't bite. Mostly. ]

[She nods a little, quite proudly.]

I'm hoping they grow to be as well-trained as Peleus is.

[Shoulders still straight and tall, but her eyes relax a little. You're okay, Four.]

What is your name, then?

[unstiff]

[ Four nods a little. ] That would certainly make them more useful.

Four. [ He responds.] If I go to shake your hand, are they going to attack? [ He nods to the dragons. ]

[pyrkagia]

Four. [She repeats it, then gives a look to all three dragons who have by now assembled near her feet, extending her own hand.]

Daenerys Targaryen, daughter of Hephaestus. These are my children, Drogon, Viserion, and Rhaegal.

[She motions to each dragon in turn with her free hand - black, cream and gold, green.]

Not as such. The Norse gods do have symbols that are elements of their representation and worship, as the Greek and Roman gods do, but it's less formal.

Actually, that's not quite true. The formality has different parameters. What is important in terms of sanctity, the offerings that were given, the qualities that were valued...they were no less important, just different.

[unstiff]

[ Four shakes her hand.]

It's nice to meet you, Daenerys. [ He nods in turn to the dragons.]

How much of what we say do they understand? [ He's curious]

[unstiff]

[ Four nods, following along with her. ]

It's a lot to get used to, but interesting, learning about the different pantheons. [ Because before this, he'd only really known about the Roman one. ]

[pyrkagia]

To be perfectly honest with yoou? I'm not quite sure.

[She crouches down to get closer on their level, expecting him to do much of the same.]

They've only learned to do certain things I ask of them when I ask them to do it in Greek.

[unstiff]

[ Four muses that, remaining still. He's not a statue, but he's not making any forward movements either. He frowns a little watching them then addresses them in Latin, not giving them a command, just introducing himself. He's curious if they understand Latin or only Greek.]

[pyrkagia]

[His body language is good and doesn't intimidate them, doesn't pose a threat - but his words don't mean much. They only really understood the commands she gave in Greek because she trained them like one would train a dog.]

I'm not sure it worked.

[unstiff]

I'm fairly sure it didn't. [ He shrugs a little. ] It's okay. I was just curious if they understood Latin as well as Greek.

[pyrkagia]

To be perfectly honest, I'm not even sure what you said. We're not taught Latin here.

[unstiff]

[ He chuckles a little at that. ] It's all right. We aren't taught Greek at the Roman camp. I just asked for some sort of sign if they understood.
