VIDEO; I want to play a game
Who: the Iron Bull and YOU
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: If you wanna find him in the gym on the Iskaulit, sure!
When: Late Monday night, because when you can't sleep, but it's just because you're thinking of home, you do shitposts in the middle of the night.
[ It's pretty clear from the sheen of sweat across the Bull's considerable shoulders, he's been working out even if it weren't obvious he was in the gym of the Iskaulit at the time. He takes a seat on a bench as the feed turns on and he smiles amicably at the fleet. ]
Hey! So, back home, me and the boys used to play a game when we were on the road. It's not easy to carry around a table around for cards just to have somebody get pissed and knock it over. [ He shakes his head. ] Anyway, here's how you play: you figure out the weirdest, most badass monster you and think of, right, and then you pit it against somebody else's, and you figure out who would win in a fight. Then, the loser has to come up with something that could beat the winner, or somebody else does. Whatever works. Sometimes there's fights.
[ He rolls his shoulders in a shrug. ]
That's the fun part, anyway. Okay, I'll go first: How about...a... [ He looks thoughtful. He's not going for the dragon first off. That's sort of like cheating. ] ...a wyvern, but with wings that let it fly in short bursts sort of like a chicken...and, uh...a gaze that can turn things to stone if its held too long.
[ This is a come at 'em thing! Feel free to post your own, threadjack with rebuttals, arguments, your own "games". Have fun! ]

[Freya pouts.]
I also think dragons are boring. I mean, they're cool and all, but your dragon sounds like it needs to see a therapist.
[She pauses.]
If I have to choose something? I'd say a blinded one winged angel with an impractically long sword. [Freya has a specific video game character in mind but she knows that the name would mean nothing to The Steve.]
video
[ Okay, defense of dragons seen to. ]
Wyverns aren't anything like dragons, but look, nobody could fly with one wing, and when swords get too long, they're just stupid. Wyvern wins.
video
But, besides that. How are Wyverns not like dragons?
Are we talking about two different things?
Is this like Trogdor or something?
video
[ He's heard the two terms, but not together. ]
...of course we're talking about different things. Wyverns are wyverns, dragons are dragons. Cats aren't dogs.
video
I think I got that.

video
[Because that sounds awesome.]

[Freya makes little karate chops in the air as if to support her claim.]

We can always test this. I just need to shift and a punching bag.
[Freya doesn't know if she's mentioned that to him or not.]
video
video
I can turn into a wolf.
[She is a wolf but that doesn't feel like an important detail right now. And given that there are camera's everywhere, Freya's already given up trying to keep it a secret.]
video
[Because witches do that.]
video
[That sounds weird, she wonders if all witches in his world do that and she isn't sure how she feels about it.]
Like werewolf or werehuman... technically.
video
video
video
video
That's awesome!
What other werewolf?
video
video
[Fun is a very important part of life.]
I don't think I want to meet him.

[She sticks out her tongue.]
Okay. I'm gonna run off and try and get that mental image out of my head.
