Well... some of them aren't so baseless. But it is unfair to judge dragons here by the way dragons of different worlds behave. I met a rather sweet one, actually. [ She never thought she'd call a dragon sweet, either. OH! Her face suddenly lights up. ]

I bet I know something that will cheer you up.

[icy_heavens]

[It's not always unfair. His way is totally fair: they're as individual as people. So don't judge until you know them. Though to be honest, he does give dragons more leeway than he gives most people.] If you don't give them a reason to attack, most won't.

[He is a dragon expert, okay? They don't attack unless provoked, they don't eat people, and not all of them are fire-breathers. Some can talk, others can't. He knows these things.]

[His eyebrow does go up at that assertion, though.] And what might that be?

[ella_of_frell]

Hattie told me she ran into one of the dragons on the island. At least what I got out of her - she was scared to pieces. Not that she told me as much, but I could tell. She was probably curled up on her bed, hugging her pillows for hours after her run in.

[ That girl was such a scaredy cat. Hattie fled screaming, and Ella got the opportunity to pet a dragon. ]

[icy_heavens]

[... Okay, that did get the tiniest of smirks out of him. Perhaps it was cruel of him, but he approved of anything that terrified Hattie.]

Black or gold? [Referring to the colour of the dragon. He knew them both. And one was certainly more imposing than the other, though every bit as well-intentioned.]

[ella_of_frell]

[ She thought it would. ]

Huh? Oh - the dragon? Black. [ She grinned at the memory. ]

I ran into him while I was tuning my mandolin.

[icy_heavens]

[And that makes it even better. Toothless? She's afraid of Toothless?]

Shows exactly how unreasonable people are. He acts more like an overgrown cat than anything.

[ella_of_frell]

[ It was pretty hilarious. ]

I didn't think about it at the time, but he really does act like a big cat. He even purrs.

[icy_heavens]

[He owed that dragon some fish once he felt better. For no other reason than scaring Hattie just by existing. It was a beautiful thing and deserved to be rewarded.]

[And it didn't surprise him at all that Ella managed to befriend the dragon. She was more than kind enough, and all you had to do in the first place was show you weren't an asshole. It wasn't as though that was difficult.]

You're unlikely to find a dragon more playful than that one. [Toothless totally tried to play with him. Almost knocked him down by doing it. But he was, and continued to be fine with that.]

[ella_of_frell]

Are there dragons like that one where you're from?

[icy_heavens]

They're not common. [Insert a few coughs here.] The one I know personally is rather full of himself.

[A brief pause here, as Hyourinmaru protests this description. Hitsugaya just rolls his eyes in response.] The hell you're not, you stupid vain lizard.

[No, he's not delirious. But he probably shouldn't have said that out loud, huh?]

[ella_of_frell]

[ Ella pauses at the coughing, torn between letting him ride it out and offering water - but it passes quickly enough, thankfully. She stifles a laugh at the description of the dragon -- until he follows it up. ]

... er...Hitsugaya...?

[icy_heavens]

[Tiniest of headtilts.] What? [Talking to his zanpakutou is not weird.]

[ella_of_frell]

[ It is when the other party doesn't know that's what you're doing :D ]

Who... were you talking to just then?

[ If you're delirious.. ]

[icy_heavens]

[It is never weird. Because he says so.]

The dragon. [Wait. Wait, he sees what's going on here. Have a frown.] My zanpakutou spirit. I'm not delirious.

[ella_of_frell]

Your ... - [ Are you sure you're not delirious? or delicious? :3 ]

The zanpak..utou spirit - that's your sword, correct? I wasn't aware it - he? spoke. [ Is your dragon spirit keeping you up at night yapping at you? ]

[icy_heavens]

[He is neither of these things!]

He does. They all do. [The dragon spirit wants him to get better. He just happens to object to being called stupid and vain. Go figure.]

[ella_of_frell]

[ So the shinigami have magic talking swords. Admittedly, very cool. ]

Are they all dragons as well?

[icy_heavens]

[Very cool. Except for when the shinigami and the sword disagree on something.]

[He shakes his head.] It varies, depending on the individual shinigami.
