Because she immediately went on to the next subject. "The queen is most definitely hiding something. Good or not. I think she's up to no good. But, I haven't known the queen as long as you guys have." To the guides, she added. "But you never know, she could be hiding stuff from you guys too." Getting a little sneak peek at the life of Riley made her smile. It left room for her own imagination. Not everyone had some nice little home with a picket fence and a nice dog to accompany them, with a partner at their side. She wanted to know how they lived their lives on a typical day for them. But she didn't want to ask. Especially with some of them having sad and personal things going on. She didn't want to bring up any sad stories. Hearing Songbird and Avian argue made her laugh so she turned around and stuck her tongue at both of them. "You're both buuurds! Deal with it." It was right around the time Riley called them mature and it only made her laugh again. Nice to have some upbeat energy despite such a dreary event. Seeing the Stone of Sacrifice didn't phase her just as usual, and she continued forward. It looked like a regular stone- well minus the creepy backdrop addition. "I'm pretty sure if they were hiding the baby dragon, they would have him locked up somewhere. Or, in a pot. He's made of clouds so a simple cage wouldn't really work. I don't think he'd be in plain sight- but if he is... it's probably a trap. Normally when people are kidnapped, they're used as bait. From what I know, the last time someone was kidnapped it was a trap...As soon as the people went to retrieve said kidnapped- weapons! Weapons, everywhere-." She realized she had been rambling and not paying attention to the conversation at hand. "Um. . . Basically we should be careful." Ace whistled softly and turned on her heel to keep walking. Hearing about Jasper's plan, Ace shook her head. "That's a terrible idea going off by yourself." Ace bounded to her side in a few quick steps. "We're a team. You should at least have some to help you. Always for just in case purposes. Maybe Avian since he's more experience orrr...well me!" She looked around at the scenery. "Besides, Fluff might be in the house over there." She offered her assistance, although she more than likely wouldn't take no for an answer. The hut didn't look too large, so it would be easier to search through. Unless it was larger on the inside- which could've been possible with the work of witch magic. Her direction turned to the hut and she decided to walk that way. "Of course, it would be nice if one of our guides could tag along. You know, as our 'adult supervision'." She smiled. "The more the merrier?"
