Getting sassed by a dragon had never been something he thought would happen in his lifetime or really in any realm of reality. Even if he had loved dragons as a kid but it had been a whole Knight complex for him. Swallowing down his frustration, he pushed against Tony's side, just to feel and maybe to prove to himself he hadn't lost it after all. "Are you going to explain any of this?"

And because he still felt shaken despite his words he sat back down but not pressed up against Tony. "Any other secrets I should know about?" The lingering panic over nearly freezing to death again kept the tension in the forefront. "I still want to keep guard."

Stubborn to a fault.
