2 suns? Oh garsh....That's a good question.

I'd prefer if Jebus just showed up to save the day and give the answer :P

@Canoas: Your idea is even simpler than mine haha. Good one :)

Hmm..
The greenhouse is deadly then. You cannot enter the greenhouse, ever.

The dragon is thought, but possible.
"containing a fierce dragon who will kill you on sight when you enter the room"
The dragon does not attack you, he simply kills you on sight, so let's assume he has death beams coming out of his eyes. He sees you = You die.
We could blind the dragon with dust, but that's impossible because he'll see you before you throw the dust.
We could try to camouflage ourselves, but due to lack of tools that is impossible.
We could try to make a mirror with something that will focus the light from the greenhouse into the dragon's eyes, blinding him. But we don't have anything that can be used as a mirror, and in order to get to the light in the greenhouse we'll die due to the heat.
The only other way is if we wait till the dragon falls asleep.
Quoted:
In reptiles, sleep time increases following sleep deprivation, and stronger stimuli are needed to awaken the animals when they have been deprived of sleep as compared to when they have slept normally. This suggests that the sleep which follows deprivation is compensatorily deeper.

So if we deprive the dragon of sleep by throwing him rocks and **** form time to time he'll eventually be deprived of sleep and will just start sleeping no matter what, and it will be hard to wake him up. That's when we walk to the other side and get out of the room.

When someone says dragon I imagine a huge beast, not some half-***ed lizard. There is no way you can throw your shirt from the entrance and hit him in the eyes. Also, I'm pretty sure he can just burn the shirt.

^^ THIS

@Canoas: But my shirt is fire proof and he said WE would be killed on sight. Never mentioned as to how the dragon would kill us nor did he mention that the dragon would have an inclination to burn our apparel with us not in it...Side note I used to be a shot put and discus thrower so I think I could do it....XD

Lat time I checked, shot put and discus are made of metal... Are you wearing a metal shirt perhaps? That would mean you couldn't get it off...


Thank you to jhoijhoi for the sig, and all the dividers in the guide.

Actually, Shot puts come in many different varieties. Rubber/Sand filled durable plastic spheres, and of course metallic. Their sizes and weights vary depending on the athletic level. Collegeate (cant spell) level throwers use 16 pound shots.
As for Discus, they vary as well between durable rubber. Generally considered cheaper but at the cost of quality. And Wooden discs with metallic casing. Typically the more expensive, higher quality, and much better in terms of reliability.

To elaborate on how I could toss my cloth shirt a distance and height required to "blind" a dragon here goes:

Simply tie a shoe string firmly around one end of my folded shirt so it acts as a weight (the tied end not the string) . Open the door and go through my rotation, I'm too pro to miss :P and too fast to be seen XD

Side note: We would practice with a towel in order to get technique down and not exert ourselves too much, all the towel had at an end was a bit of duct tape to keep the end formed. I could hit the top of our gym ( large high ceiling) with very little effort.

cant go back the way you came? then how did I get into this ruddy room anyways? I cant leave through one door because i would be slayed by a dragon and the other room means death like a vampire at the beach.

My analysis is that I couldn't be in a room where the only two exits means utter doom because I would have had to die to get into that room...

with that reasoning I suppose I could go through either room and get out to freedom because I'm a ghost for dieing to get into the room I am now in.

lol jeffy... If you throw the shirt at his eye he'll just close the eye like any animal. If I pretend I'm going to slap my cat in his face he'll close his eyes first, and so will the dragon.
However, unlike my cat, the dragon also breathes fire and will kill you. Also, he's huge so how will you cover both eyes with just one shirt?
