[Oof. Cyrus squints into the camera as the feed flicks on, looking rather like he's either gotten far too much sleep or not nearly enough.]

Well... I'd been hoping to find that all this was just one hell of a dream, but it looks like my hoping was for naught.

[He covers his mouth for a yawn, then pushes a hand through his hair in an attempt to straighten it into some kind of order.]

Would anybody mind terribly fillin' me in on what I've missed? It would be much appreciated.

( OOC: unexpected month-long hiatus means an unexpectedly long dragon nap for cyrus here, whoops. but he's back in time for city festivities i think!!! )

How long did you sleep? [His voice sounds like an 8 year old girl's.]

[Wh. What is he looking at.

Cyrus squints some more before he answers.]

Last thing I recall was seein' all manner of Halloween festivities... And now that it looks like we're in the thick of winter, I can only assume it's been a month or more.

Hallo-what? [That one throws him for a loop.] Well.. when I got here it was the day before Thanksgiving. You missed an awesome feast! I also slept for a week after that. [He grins.] But I might have missed more feasting.

It's been just under three weeks since then.

[shenandoah]

Three weeks... [Oof.] Longer than I thought, then.

[Longer than he's ever slept since leaving the mountains. But more importantly...]

Now, what exactly are you supposed to be?

[Really, he needs to post a Guide to Nall. You'd think no one ever saw a dragon in kit form!] I'm a dragon. This is my more compact form and the form I usually go about in.

[shenandoah]

[Uh.]

You're... [Uhhhhhhhhhh.] A dragon.

[Does he look skeptical enough?]

"Compact form" may be something of an understatement, child.

[Video]

[dragonofalthena]

Yeah, a dragon.

[He grins.]

Well, it's what the four dragons in my world look like as kits. When we come into our power as Guardians, we learn how to become full-sized. It takes some effort though. It was a couple hundred years before I was old enough to stay that was for more than a few minutes at a time.

How long were you asleep?

[shenandoah]

Kits... [Yeah, his skepticism is not yet abating.]

I happen to know a little something about dragons, and I can't say I have ever heard of that particular stage of a dragon's development.

Over a month, seems like.

[He yawns again, nonchalant as can be, as though there's nothing at all unusual or noteworthy in a month-long nap.]

[Video]

[dragonofalthena]

So, what, they're born adults in your world?

Do you sleep that long a lot?
