"Everyone can be completely clueless," I agree, nodding. "But there's a difference between that and... teasing dragons when you've got a high IQ."

I laughed slightly, "I would hope no one would actually do that..."

I shrug. "You never know.I mean... it's similar to dancing in traffic."

"True... but you can live if you get by a car... the dragon might be a little stupider..." I say with a shrug thinking about it, "I don't know"

"Yeah, probably a little stupider," I nod. "But... it's on the same... spectrum, I guess."

"Yeah, it definately is.." I say nodding my head slightly, "How's we start talking about this?" I asked not being able to remember.

"Uh...." My eyes drift towards the ceiling as I try and remember. "Um... Laken is silly... because you said you met her... because she doesn't kill spiders." I nod, looking at him again. "Yeah, that was it - the not-killing spiders."

"Oh yeah..." I say laughing slighty, "I remember now... So... Hey look, there's a spider now..." I say looking at the wall behind Arden's head.

I jump a bit, almost banging my head on the wall, and then stand up so I can turn around and kneel down. "Why... yes, there is," I say slowly, face inches from the spider as I tilt my head at it, fascinated.

I laughed when she jumps, "Why're you getting so close it?" I asked her curiously chuckling slightly.

Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 9, 2007 18:20:05 GMT
"Because they're cool," I say slowly, still watching it. "I love the way they move... and the patterns and colors and shape.... I had a pet spider once."

"True... but I still don't want to get that close to them" I say with a small chuckle, "Really? I never had a pet one..."

I nod. "Lightning, or Thunder or something. He was really fast, and had a web under my desk. I put a... an enlargement charm of some kind on him, so I'd always know which one he was." I finally pull away from the wall, looking back at Riley and smiling sheepishly at my somewhat odd behavior.

"Wow... Never would have done that" I say grinning lightly at her as she pulled away from the wall, "I don't really like... large spiders... close to me"

"Tsk." I laugh slightly, shaking my head. "Why not? They're... they're like miniature dragons or something, that's how cool they are."

Post by Riley Pearson on Dec 9, 2007 18:49:16 GMT
"Cause they're... I don't know... they creep me out" I say with a small laugh.

I laugh slightly, shaking my head. "So I take it you wouldn't do this?" I ask, turning back to the wall again to let the little spider crawl onto my hand. I hold it up to eye level and tilt my head at it again, watching it walk around. "See? It's almost cute."

I cringe slightly, "No, I wouldn't" I say shaking my head. "Cute... at a distance"
|
|
|
Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 9, 2007 19:08:24 GMT
"Aw..." I laugh lightly. "But if you see it just at a distance you can't really see how cute it is," I say, still holding it up to eye level and watching it. "I think that I might keep this one, and name him... either Fluffy or Killer, I dunno."

"I'm close enough" I say with a small chuckle, "You do that.." I add with a nod.

"Well, thank you for your permission... I think I will," I nod again, looking around for something I can put the little creature in to take him back to the dorm.

"You're welcome?" I say chuckling, "Too bad there isn't anything to put him... or her... in... unless you want my ring box" I add chuckling slightly again.

"Hm..." I say amusedly. "No, I don't think that's quite necessary...." I say, trying to dig in my right pocket with my left hand. "I think I've got a vial in here somewhere...."

Post by Riley Pearson on Dec 9, 2007 19:30:48 GMT
"Good, cause that's one thing I don't want to lose..." I say with a small chuckle, smiling.

Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 9, 2007 19:36:44 GMT
"No, I would imagine not," I laugh slightly, finally extracting the vial and twisting the top off with some difficulty, then trying to coax the spider inside.

"I don't think he wants to go in there..." I say watching her try to put the spider inside the vial.
|

Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 9, 2007 19:42:24 GMT
"Oh, he will," I say confidently, holding the top and vial in my left hand and holding the vial to my right hand, waiting for him to crawl closer. "It's all right, little Fluffy. There's air."

I gave her an amused smile and raised my eyebrows slightly, "You sure?" I say noticing the spider not moving.

Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 9, 2007 19:47:56 GMT
"Very," I nod. "Spiders and I have an understanding. You're just scaring him is all."

"Me?" I asked now sounding amused as well, "How so exactly?"
