[ This is the morning of Day 5 of the month of Domino. Curufin is in his cabin, having just awakened from an extremely vivid dream -- by falling out of his bunk and landing on the floor with a THUNK! Sorry about the racket, roomies! He climbs to his feet, and since he slept in his clothes, getting dressed is simple. He pulls on his boots, throws on his jacket, and goes to the ICP. ]
Good morning, all. Hate to bother you, but I've just had yet another prophetic dream.
I thought I was trapped inside a block of ice. Ice walls, ice floor, ice ceiling. I was freezing, and it was hard to start walking through this frozen passageway, but I did. The ice was so clear and transparent that at times it almost seemed. . . not there at all.
I spotted what I assumed was a gap or an exit up ahead, and I stepped towards it. But suddenly the world shook under my feet and the block shuddered and lurched, and I was thrown off my feet and crashed into the walls. It felt like the structure was tumbling, with me in it! The cold struck through my bones like knives every time I hit the ice.
I don't know what this means, but the dreams I had before the last two missions were true visions. I dreamed of goblins and flying wolves and a burning city, and that's what we found. The next time, I dreamed of a volcanic planet that was self-destructing, and that's exactly where we went.
So, I must believe we're going to a very wintery place this time.
I suggest to everybody, get your cold-weather gear together! [ His shoulders shake briefly with silent laughter. ] And bring a flask of vodka or whisky if you can.

I'll agree with your description, from my experience. So what happened, did your dragon friend explode at you? Help! Get the fire extinguisher! [ Chuckle. ]

He's rather glad though that rather than making fun of him, Curufin just sees to find the uplifting side of the situation. It's exactly what Inigo tries to do for other people, and he smiles. ]
Of course I valiantly escaped with my life! [ He manages to make it sound like some great heroic deed, but then he does add honestly: ] I just outran her, really. And we're friends, so it's not as if she could stay mad at me forever.

That is exactly what Curufin is trying to do. To use a joking manner to focus on the uplifting side of the situation. He probably recognizes that Inigo does the same and so will understand that kind of humor and feel affirmed. ]
[ Curufin chuckles. ] As the saying goes, sometimes discretion is the better part of valor! Having a pair of strong, swift legs is often as good as having a sword. Besides, if the dragon is your friend, then being left FAR BEHIND would give her a chance to cool off. [ Literally. ]
