"About what am I supposedly clueless?" She sighed, seeming a bit less patient now, the way she was eyeing him. "You've been dancing around some point or other this entire time, asking quite leading questions, and then insinuating things about my answers which have nothing to do with reality. Were I to be less than charitable right now, I might suspect that you were simply wanting to play pointless, nonsensical games with me. Especially as this all began with me thinking that you wanted to ask actually meaningful questions, the sort with which one may get to know more about where we are... or even about me. All of this, when I could have been out gathering sunlight...." Right, because that made sense.

The little smile she gave him was tight, hardly genuine. "So, why are you afraid of dragons? Again, you've hardly mentioned them this entire time. What are you afraid will happen, if you do?"
