Canon is Epic; possible game is Beastly Roses

[A sigh.] Part of me wants to tell you to just make up your mind and get on with it, but the other part... are you sure you want to send me there? 'M not entirely certain I'd get along with all the stompers. I might intimidate them, you know.

...What do you mean I'd be a stomper? [The eyebrows raise, and he begins to do that thing with his jaw.] What, I'd grow?

[Pause. Yup, he's definitely frowning now.] You might want to re-think this. I wouldn't be much good to anyone if I were that big and slow.

Well.. if everyone is that big and slow, you should probably be fine. [ a small tilt of his head, charms wound around small antlers chiming with the movement. ] Though.. I can't blame you. I'm certain it would be very disconcerting.

[barelyknow]

I don't know. I think big would look good on you.

Might have to look out for your elbows more often.

[whatsonemore]

You don't understand how big and slow stompers really are. Even if no one else was due to notice, I'd notice.

Very disconcerting is one way to put it.

[whatsonemore]

[:( you are never going to let that one go are you]

Big? Me? [Have a completely disbelieving huff.] I'd barely be able to move. You people can't even jump.

[barelyknow]

[Probably not, no.]

We can jump! Just...not as high as you can. If we could basketball would be a lot more interesting.

[whatsonemore]

That's not jumping at all. Doesn't even count.

...Basketball? [He pronounces it oddly, even with his accent, emphasizing the wrong syllable.] ...Do I even want to know?

[barelyknow]

Basketball.

[She pronounces it more slowly this time.]

It's a game. Basically there are two teams and they both have a basket that's up high. The teams get points by trying to get a ball in the other team's basket.

[whatsonemore]

[He's picturing a bunch of stompers bouncing around erratically, with a wrecking ball in the middle.] Sounds a bit dangerous.

[barelyknow]

Not as dangerous as you're thinking, I bet.
