Paul shrugged and resumed walking at a much slower pace; even if he was being more open, he still wanted to get home. "Honestly... the horns are one thing. Knowing they're there is a little freaky, though I guess no more so than the claws and fangs were at first, but like I said, weird changes aren't really anything new to me. What worries me the most is... what this all entails. Like, what exactly this whole dragon motif means."

"Well... Blue dragons are usually wise and tend to be mild mannered. Sure they can be dangerous," she offered."I have a few DnD books over them as well if you want to borrow them.... Yes.... I'm one of those types of nerds...."

Paul chuckled a little. "I guess at this point, any information would be plausible."
He stared at the floor but maintained his awkward smile, doing his best to remain optimistic. "Whatever the case, though, I see no reason to think any less of myself. It just opens up a lot of questions, y'know?"

"You're still you. Sure you're different out side but on the inside you're still Paul," she offered.

"Yeah. No reason to think any different." He looked back up at Forsaken and shrugged again. "Just gotta figure out what Paul is."
Something suddenly crossed his mind, causing his smile to fade into an equally bashful frown. "But, uh... how dangerous we talking here?"

Forsaken sighed. "When threatened to an extreme amount, some breath lightning or do what happened at the gorge," she answered. "I think the only things more dangerous are Red Dragons, Eldritch beings, and a Dersite gone Grimdark."

"I... see..." Paul rubbed the back of his head as he mulled this over. He wasn't exactly sure what that last thing was, but nonetheless, the fact that Forsaken could only name three things more dangerous than what he was potentially becoming wasn't exactly comforting. He couldn't help but dread the idea of repeating the hostile actions he committed in his fog form, particularly on someone who couldn't revive. Needless to say, the thought shut him up pretty quickly.

"You do realize there are about 3 million different Eldritch beings right?" she offered calmly. "I just can't name them all for risk of possibly summoning one of them...."

"Right..." Again, Paul couldn't exactly take comfort in that, if for a completely different reason, but he knew she was just trying to make him feel less threatening by comparison. "I guess all I can do is stick to the philosophy that I'm still me on the inside. As long as I don't go berserk, I can accept the changes, however many more I have to endure. Who knows? I might make a pretty bada** dragon," he added with a snicker.

Forsaken nodded. "And being bada** is definately something you pull off well," she offered.

"Heheh... 'preciate it." Paul nodded once and looked up, realizing that they had reached one of the mall's entrances. He came to a halt and smiled at Forsaken again. "Well, it was good seeing you again... under less, yet... somehow more worrying circumstances. I hope your research goes well, and... I dunno. I wouldn't mind keeping in contact."

"Do you have a Pesterchum?" she asked. "I've always got it open."

"Pesterchum?" Paul mused. "That like a chat client or something? 'Cause yeah, I can set something up like that."

"It's a chat client I use a lot. If you do get it, add dracoricMistress. That's me," she offered.

"Sounds good! I'll take care of that once my hands aren't so full," Paul chuckled. "Thanks for all the help. I'll see ya around?"
