"Never," she replies, eyes shining. She pats the triceratops as he lumbers into the herd. Despite his earlier warning, she can't resist asking, "Mind if we get down? We'll be careful not to get stepped on."
It's not my herd that worries me, Thunder says, turning his head to fix one beady eye on Daine. There are predators here that could swallow you in one bite.
Daine doesn't really want to make Thunder too nervous, so she refrains from pointing out that she could stop any nastier creatures with her magic. Instead, she sends him a wave of reassurance. We'll be fine. If anyone unpleasant shows up, we'll just hop back up.
Thunder lets out a disapproving sigh, but doesn't belabor the point. "We're all right to get down for a bit," Daine says to Aly before carefully sliding off Thunder's back.
