Spoilers for Desolation of Smaug

[iamfire]

A bit premature, this little venture of yours, is it not?

[Not that he minds the attention; it's rather appealing really.]

I suppose it was inevitable, given your choice in muses in the past and your...attraction to those with power.

I will never understand why the gold is not what attracts you but I will not object either.

[Because it's his, mun. His.]

Shame that you must now wait a year for more of this tale that you seem so fond of; I would suggest going to see the film again, mun, but...well, that would be a waste of treasure, would it not?

[Ah, no, it wouldn't be but someone's just a greedy bastard.]

Say what you will, mun, but do not act as if I am the only one with greed about. That supposed "king under the mountain" is no better than I~

Hmph. Been waitin' for yeh to show up. 'ou're the one givin' us nicer 'ragon types a bad 'ame.

[iamfire]

Am I?

I would say I was sorry but...that would be a lie, considering I'm rather fond of the way I am.

[kittysdragon]

[Lockheed tries to look a little more imposing to Smuag, but given the height difference that's not easy.]

Hmmmm, 'ell if I had as much gold as yeh do, I 'uppose I might be 'ore like yeh are.

[iamfire]

[It's really kind of amusing. Please, keep doing it.]

And why do you lack gold, small one? Do you not have a hoard of any sort?

[kittysdragon]

[Hmph, well he will then.]

The place 'here my lot 'omes from got taken over by 'iant bug aliens. [He wonders how Smuag would handle the Brood, were he of a nicer sort.] So now I live 'ere. With me 'riends. Cause 'umans ain't 'hat bad a lot.

[iamfire]

[Yes, good. He's always in need of entertainment.]

Alien bugs...how interesting.

[It'd be interesting, that's for sure.]

Humans and everything like them are nothing more than thieves and annoyances. I cannot help but question your sanity if you find their company appealing, small one.

[highsights]

King under the mountain.

[He chuckles.]

You cannot be the Smaug of tales.

[iamfire]

And if I am?

[highsights]

I would have imagined you larger.

[iamfire]

Larger you say? And just how much larger am I suppose to be?

The reactions from others had led me to believe my size is more than fine.

[highsights]

Something more to behold. Your tales exaggerate, though I suspect you are no less a fool.

[kinginexile]

Hold your tongue, foul serpent!

[So Smaug might still scare him shitless, but one would be a fool not to be scared of the dragon, but he's still going to run his mouth at you.

How'd you like being burned by hot liquid gold, huh? Bet that still burned like a bitch, even with your mighty hard scales.]

[whitescalesbigmouth]

So you're Smaug...

My mun's told me about you.

[sharpeyedwarf]

My uncle is a hundred times better than you!

[Bravado from a young dwarf who hasn't seen the dragon in action.]

He will be king under the mountain as is his right!

[idkfusrodahdova]

[The Dragonborn is staring up at you, sizing you up.]

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

Premature indeed. I know how this tale ends, oh Smaug the Weak-scaled.

[iamfire]

Tales are nothing more than tales. But size does not count for everything.

[iamfire]

Oh? What will you do if I don't, Oakenshield? Hm? Enlighten me.

[He loves that you fear him, Thorin. Loves it.

And it was good for his skin, stfu. :| ]

[iamfire]

Oh? And what has your mun told you?

[iamfire]

[That gets a chuckle out of the dragon, a deep sound as he peers at the dwarf with one eye.]

Will he now?

[iamfire]

[Excuse him while he lowers his head, sniffing at this strange being as he rumbles softly.]

[iamfire]

Do not run your mouth to me, elf. We all have weaknesses; it was merely a folly that mine was known.

[whitescalesbigmouth]

That you're a dragon, Like me.

[kinginexile]

There are ways to slay you, O Smaug.

[And they'd certainly tried. We all know poor Thorin is just talking through bravado, he can't do anything as he is now.

SURE IT WAS. You are a liar, dragon.]

I am nothing like you.

[kittysdragon]

[If you knew how many bad guys he's dealt with in space you would know not to underestimate him. Kinda wishes Kitty was here to back him up though.]

Huh ah. Big 'asty bug things which Lockheed 'oasted tons of. 'ruth be told if you 'ere a 'icer lot I'd ask yeh to help.

If yeh gonna surround yeh self with tons of gold an' not 'pend it yeh gonna get thieves. 'hat's wrong with treatin' 'umans better than dirt? Some are kinda annoyin' but most are ok. My best friend is one, kinda.
