Upon waking, Connor saw Rex on the table beside his sofa, crest and wings fully extended, performing some intricate footwork.
"Abby," Connor called, "why is Rex dancing?"
In the kitchen, Abby spluttered. "Looks like a courtship display to me."
"What?" Connor sat up. "Courting me?"
Abby paused, then shrugged. "Maybe you smell like a female reptile."
Connor regarded Rex curiously. "Maybe I smell like a male reptile." He shook his head. "Sorry, mate, you're great, just - not my type."
"Aw," Abby teased, "poor Rex, alone in the Holocene, rejected..."
"Haven't you heard?" Connor grinned. "I break all the lizards' hearts!"
