second; but you don't realize it yourself

Video;

[So, since no one discouraged spamming the network, Rose is posting, again. This time, she's indoors, at a shiny new apartment.]

Sooo, hey. I figure, I'm new here, some of you are new here, some of you are old hats, whatever. We should break the ice! And by that I mean I'm super bored. So. I'm having a party! Matisse, Genessia City, Room 102. Best way to break in a new apartment, right? Right. I've got snacks, soda, movies, and most importantly, we're gonna have a bunch of rounds of Truth or Dare and stuff like that. Everyone's invited as long as you have your magic pendant-y thingy. Don't think too hard about that part, please. See you soon! I hope? Seriously, everyone should show up, please.

Action;

[Rose has, true to her word, gotten a big party setup going in her apartment. Soda, snacks, etc of various types are around, she's got a bunch of extra chairs, the apartment is clean, there's some movies playing in the background for noise, and now she's just waiting for people to arrive.

If you arrive very early, you might hear her muttering to herself:]

Was this a mistake after all, are people really going to come, it's going to suck if I bought all this and no one shows, but it's probably fine, people here are friendly, but maybe....

[... Yeah.]

[hm. okay. A small child is here. A small child... with dragon wings, which isn't weird at all to Rose anymore, so much so that she barely notices. No, the big problem right now is: Small child means she has to clean up her act and not be raunchy and/or cursing a lot, huh?]

Truth, huh... Well, then! You've got those wings on your back, can you fly with them?

[Let's just throw a soft question. Be good to the tiny child.]

[greatprecious]

[Its not like she would understand human slang anyway, especially outside of Magvell. And many, many other factors. Curse away hooman.]

Um... Yes, I can.

[Well, this isn't so bad. But now Myrrh awkwardly goes silent as she doesn't quite understand the rules of the game.]

[polyheroic]

Cool... I kinda want to see. But not indoors, okay?

[After an awkward pause, Rose tries to break the silence....]

It's your turn to ask me if I want a truth or a dare, now.

[greatprecious]

I can do that yes. I could even carry you... If you want.

[Did she make a friend who is human? Esteem boosted!]

Oh, okay... Hmm... Umm... Truth or dare?

[polyheroic]

Carry me? [on one hand: that sounds SO COOL but on the other: you are a child] Well, we'll see! Since we're inside for the party, it'll have to be later.

I'll pick truth, too!

[greatprecious]

Of course, outside.

[Wait until Roland hears she made a friend so quickly.]

Truth then... What is... Your favorite candy?

[1,200 years old "roughly."]

[polyheroic]

[1,200, or roughly 12. got it.]

Oooh, that's tough... ... Actually, do I even have one? It's been years since I've had any candy at all... I liked those gummy things, I guess?

[greatprecious]

[Myrrh makes a note to herself to save some candy to share next time.]

I like those too. Most candy, really. This is kind of fun...

[polyheroic]

Right? It's a great way to get to know new people.

Truth or dare?

[greatprecious]

[Honestly, she could keep doing Truth but that would get boring.]

I'll go dare... Please don't be scary...

[polyheroic]

Okay! I dare you to...

...

Wait, no. I can't send you to the Russian Roulette bowl, you're too cute to do that to. Give me a minute.

[She folds her arms, and taps her foot, trying to think...]

You said you're strong enough to carry someone, right? Is that only when you're flying, or can you carry someone on the ground, too?

[greatprecious]

[Inquisitive blinking. Who's rushing roulettes?]

Only while flying. On the ground, I will have to change first...

[polyheroic]

Change? Change how?

[greatprecious]

[Myrrh glances around and pulls out a small bag on a sling she had tucked away. She pulls out a gemstone that bears a draconic emblem inside.
She only keeps it out just long enough for it to well looked at before she hides it away again.]

With this. My Dragonstone.

[polyheroic]

... Dragonstone...?

[hold on. And those wings. And then.]

Do you mean you turn into a dragon? Like, a big, full-sized one?

[greatprecious]

[Did she say too much? She retracts to partially hide inside her wings.]

Y-yes. But I swear I'm not evil or anything.

[polyheroic]

That's so cool!

[she's... practically sparkling with excitement....]

Oh, I wanna see, so bad, but it would be a terrible idea to do that inside... But still, a dragon!

[greatprecious]

[And she'll hide further. She's never gotten that kind of reaction before, but at least it's re-assuring that she isnt seen as a monster.]

Then I'll have to show you sometime...

[polyheroic]

Please! You're amazing, little miss. I don't think I got your name yet, though... I'm Rose.

[greatprecious]

[Now she's coming out of hiding again.]

Rose... It's nice to meet you, Rose. My name's Myrrh.

[polyheroic]

It's nice to meet you, Myrrh!

[SHE JUST WANTS TO HUG THIS CHILD.... she won't, but she wants to.]

Are you here alone? Or did someone bring you here?

[greatprecious]

[Hugs won't be easy with her wings. Head pats however...]

Oh... Roland brought me. He said I would make a lot of friends.

[polyheroic]

Oh... Well, I'm glad he did. Are you making a lot of friends here?

[greatprecious]

Well, I met you.

[Doesn't really answer the question. Chances are she hasn't spoken to anyone else...yet.]

[polyheroic]

You're really sweet...

[URGE TO HUG CHILD, RISING.....]

But there's a ton of people around here to meet, if you want to!
