I could maybe deal with a pegasus, I guess, but it's kind of a letdown when you're used to a dragon, you know?
That's more like it. [ The grin on his face is practically audible. ] There's never been a shortage of venti in my life, [ he says, cheerful despite the connotations that Hiro won't get. ] There's probably a lot around and you just didn't know it. Wind spirits can go pretty much anywhere.
It's just me and the rest of Hephaestus cabin doing the building, honestly. Most of the others in camp focus on training or healing or whatever. Some of them don't even know how to use basic power tools, [ Leo says, rolling his eyes. Looking at you, Piper. ] Traveling and going on quests isn't all it's cracked up to be, though. Lots of risking your life for gods that won't even talk to you, let alone thank you for lending a hand. And it's always the end of the world. [ A beat. ] So, yeah, it's a lot like home. Honestly, I might not mind it so much if it weren't for the technology thing.
First Jason, now you. Everyone's a critic. [ What would you guys have him name the dragon? Smaug? ] I thought it fit. Better than Puff the Magic Dragon. I'm glad I could salvage him for the ship, and he's great with sonar, radar, and diagnostics, but... [ He's hesitant to mention it, but since none of the others are here, anyway... ] I want to rebuild him. We're kind of on a tight deadline at home, so I dunno if I'll be able to finish it in time, but I'm going to try. [ Because it might be useful to have a flying mechanical dragon when you can't touch the ground. And he just misses his dragon. ]
Sweet deal! I used to want something like that, but then I found Bunker 9. The place was super old, but there's a lot of stuff in there that's proved useful, and I'm the only one that can open it. It's pretty awesome; I always missed it when we were on the quest.
