I can handle hearing about some not so nice stories, promise. And - of course, I wouldn't ask you to do something I wasn't willing to do myself.

[easy and genuine, before his smile gets a little wider.]

Oh, a lot of things. Reading... Music... Picnics... Playing with the animals. Oh, speaking of which - Porridge!

[after a moment it might make more sense why he's just calling out a breakfast food at random, because a tiny little dragon is toddling over from where it was exploring around a moment ago.]

Do you want to pet him? He's really friendly, I promise.

[rosebleed]

Porridge?

[Forgets everything else at once that is a baby dragon. Her eyes light up and she looks to him with a newfound ecstasy.]

Would I? How could I ever say no? Hello there! Oh my goodness, you're so small! Hi darling!

[Stooping to pet this sweet baby, her heart is so full]

[this is such a valid and real reaction. porridge immediately recognizes her innate princess nature and flops on the ground to demand belly rubs with a happy chirping noise.]

Shameless. [he says, fondly.] But look, he likes you. He doesn't do that for just anyone.

[rosebleed]

Nooo, he's a perfect gentleman. [She gives him a look, smile quirking high up one cheek.] Is that so? I bet you say that to everyone.

[scritchy scritchy scritch!]

Is he a friend from home?

[agleam]

[MY HTML how did i do this. anyways, he gives a nod.]

Yeah. I found him a few months ago, and he decided to stick around.

[we're all struggling in denise's little playground]

He's very darling. You're so lucky to have him here with you.

Were his parents just not around? What happened?
