we already made the joke about Laketown being part of Town

Lake Town, like Town Town and all the other parts

Laketown Town

and then we already drew the logical conclusion that Dead Dwarves Wake Up In Lake Town

which is empty and totally devoid of everyone who lives in actual Laketown

and then i stumbled across that King Under the Mountain thing

so it also follows that Thorin is the one dwarf who doesn't wake up in Lake Town

because he's asleep under the mountain

but then i was laughing because

obviously there must be several ways into the mountain, BUT

the only one we've ever specifically addressed is Enjolras's cave for dragoning

so like imagine figuring out that Thorin is IN the mountain

and going to get into it and being like

holy shit a dragon pile fuck

wait

it's full of furniture

and there's no dragon there's just.............this guy

sldkjfs

Who's This Douche Bag

and he's just like "i'm the dragon"

HE IS NOT JUST LIKE "I AM THE DRAGON"

i mean in demeanour

not literally

dragon's presence is very much yes hello i am the lizard

new dragon who dis

yes like that

yep

but also probably like if dragon is up there at all there's also always just a chance that he isn't a dragon and he's just like rearranging furniture

yeah no i assume they're going to walk in while he's not ACTUALLY dragoning

he's just like milling around

in a sweater

moving shelves in what is obviously a dragon pile

Can confirm, he will be wearing a sweater.

lizard eyeing because people want to walk through his cave

smol people

akdjfn people who are smoller than his boyfriend

to be fair he knows it's not like HIS mountain

he's just renting the foyer essentially

it could be worse, they could be alligators

it is the people's mountain

he's less weird about space and what is and isn't his than cirque dragon is because he still thinks he Isn't A Dragon

but he is just as weird about alligators

asdjf

as soon as he tells anyone that this happened though, R and Bahorel and Courf are gonna be like WE want to go in the mountain

Combeferre has to chaperone tho because he's the wizard

so they can run in there and catch up to your party and be like HEY WUT R U DOIN

because whatever it is, it isn't how dragon described it probably

"They were unrealistically small and carried weapons that seemed impractical based on their size. I didn't know it went back that far. I'm not sure what they intend to do."

UNREALISTICALLY

it is a fair assessment because not only is it dragon, there aren't REALLY any non-human races in Town yet

everyone is either human or an animal.

that is actually true and fair. i mean. demons. but that's sort of different

Human-presenting ones, though.

Well. Okay, the trolls.

now Town is gonna be full of all these tall and small assholes

Town is for tol and smol

(i don't actually know how the tol is going to arrive, but)

(idk but he's got freaky bros in the woods)

And a dragon who will hiss at him for being a redneck

dragon can go back in his cave

elves are able to just sort of nope back to their own realm, so i don't see why they couldn't just nope off anywhere they pleased

nopes to Town, finds all these dang dwarves here

god dammit

CAN'T ESCAPE BITCH

didn't you DIE

dragon didn't ask to be the door guardian for the new dwarf house but he's sure as hell gonna be

by virtue of just being there all the time

I mean, like, he would almost like them except for the whole royalty thing

it's ok dwarves have never oppressed anyone

(they are racist to dragons)

dragon is racist to all other dragons

WELL.

I mean, he doesn't actually know other dragons.

no, he does not

Besides Spike who is a Real Dragon and fine.

also honk at how suspicious everyone is gonna be when literally nothing goes wrong

you can just walk in there unimpeded

even if dragon is dragon, he'll just shuffle out of the way

him just cuddling tables

he just wanna perch on his furniture
