[SE] So many things I need to say to you

"... more?" Liam repeated dumbly, feeling particularly lost. As Maea went on, Liam quietly kept his many, many questions - like do Lials even burn? or are Lials superheated when dead, or do they cool off eventually? or how the fuck do you want us to move that thing? - to himself. Reaching up to rub the back of his neck, he glanced in the direction Maea pointed and paled slightly at the sheer distance involved. His strength and stamina were decent, sure, but maybe not that decent. And, while he might love and adore Maea, he was rather less than inclined to see a dragon fly under the influence.

Maybe if he could distract her long enough for the blood's effect to wear off. Latching onto one idea, Liam was on his feet as soon as Maea was, reaching out to grasp lightly at her arm before she wandered off for the Lial carcass. "Flowers first, right?" he reminded her, gently steering her away from a pool of lava and towards a rocky hill nearby. "I bet there are some smolder blossoms up there. Maybe we could, uh - weave some together and decorate the Lial before we set it on fire." Yes, good. That sounded just slightly deranged enough that it might work.
