[Video]
[The video image flicks on to show a rather disheveled Devon. His shirt has obvious oily marks, there are smears of some kind of brownish powder across his face that he attempted to brush off but really only spread farther, and a drippy egg-like residue is falling from his hair.
He sighs heavily and tries to scrape his long hair back from his face without making a bigger mess. The "don't make a bigger mess" piece clearly fails, but at least he feels a bit better.]
Does anyone know of any good ways to clean up a bit of a replicator explosion?
As you can probably see [he waves at himself for extra emphasis, not that it's probably needed] things have gotten a bit out of control over he-
[He meant to say "here" but is interrupted as he's bombarded with flying white rice. He puts his hands up to try and block it, but the stuff just keeps coming. He glares off camera in the direction the rice is coming from.]
Aquaras! I told you to knock it off! This isn't funny!
[He barely finishes the word funny before the rice cuts off and he gets a face full of lime green jello that splatters in a glorious explosion. The shock lasts barely a second before he growls.]
Get over here!
[Devon lunges for the dragon, but it's a very bad move on a floor coated in juice, cooking oil, and uncooked rice among other things. His feet go out from under him and he winds up face planting and covering himself even further in the disgusting mix of stuff Aquaras has called out of the replicator.]
Sometimes I seriously hate you, you know that?
Kyuuu yuuu yuuuu~~
[Is that a dragon laughing in the background? Why yes, it very well might be.]

Video
Then he turned on the feed coolly, feeling relatively comfortable in his position. Something snarky is begging to fall from his lips, but at the inclusion of a dragon he withholds it, trying to get a better look at the creature]
Is that a dragon?
[Cue Dragon envy here...]
no subject
Yes, she's a dragon. A dragon who's currently in a load of trouble!
[Devon's annoyed face shows on the camera for a moment more before a crystalline blue head takes over the whole screen.]
((Aquaras looks somewhat like this in size and shape.))
no subject
The envy isn't going anywhere. That's true, Ghost tended to mind directions when they were given. Little did Kaiba know he was speaking to someone from Tiriaq's circle.]If she's not listening to you it sounds more like she has a weak master.
[Pausing to draw in a breath he continued]
Dragons are intelligent creatures- powerful too. If you treat them with due respect then they will yield to your wishes.
no subject
I'm not her master. Aquaras is her own entity. She simply chooses to hang out with me quite often. I've never seen her truly yield to anything.
no subject
That explains a lot. [Also a dragon would choose the company it keeps, that's a given]
She's young yet, isn't she? It's not too late to get a better handle on her.
no subject
[Devon looks over at Aquaras at the same time she looks at him in response to Kaiba's question. They both burst out laughing together.]
Aquaras is as old as dirt. Or, well, almost as old as dirt. I think dirt existed in the world before large bodies of water technically, but compared to what we're used to the term still applies.
no subject
[Narrowing his eyes at the screen and tilting his head to one side. There had to be a logical explanation for why a dragon that was "old as dirt" was so puny. It wasn't an unknown phenomenon for a creature to lose some of their stature upon arrival here so it seemed the most logical conclusion]
Depends on whose theory you subscribe to, or what dimension you're from.
no subject
[He stepped away from the screen as Aquaras flew off his shoulder, shifting into the largest form Havenwell would allow her as she flew before shrinking back down and settling onto Devon's shoulder again.]
This just seems to be her favorite.
Dimension?
no subject
[He hummed his acknowledgement, fixated more on Aquaras than Devon. Watching the display with rapt interest. It didn't have to be explained to him why she chose the innocuous looking form. Cleary, it was strategic. They were in a city setting and if she didn't look threatening in any capacity then others would be lured into a false sense of security.
It was brilliant, really.]
Yes, dimension. [Repeating the word and briefly letting his eyes flit away from the dragon to look at the other male. Surely, he knew what the word meant.....] Another plane of existence. Physics and the natural laws operate differently in these alternate timelines. I can assure you that the planet I'm from doesn't really on physical contact, for one example.
no subject
The dimensions I know of are connected, although I guess one isn't exactly reality. Or at least not living reality.
no subject
Not everyone is like you, Kaiba]Hypothetically speaking, the dimensions I'm talking about must in some minute way be connected as well or it wouldn't be possible for any of us to be here. [He tried not to get too impatient as Devon circled around whatever point he was trying to make. It sounded as if he were implying there was an afterlife or an underworld neither of which appealed.
..However, presumably his rival later went to an afterlife himself..andd if Kaiba could just figure out how to either a. prevent this or b. traverse the various planes himself.... then he could finally get his rematch.]
Sounds a bit Hellenistic or Norse.. but that's mythology. You're saying you can legitimately travel between realms? How?
no subject
I can't travel between the dimensions, but some of the magicians of old can. Partly at least. Their forms in the living world are only temporary, and are more magical constructs than an actual body.
[Those magical constructs can still hit pretty hard though. When they show up it usually results in a serious ass kicking for Devon.]
