There's a flicker of static, then an image resolves into view. First, a brown nose pokes into sight, followed closely by a bronze. The brown pulls away, leaving a little bronze dragon peering into the camera, a whirling blue eye showing his good mood. A moment later, the nose disappears as its owner is pounced on by another little dragon

...dragons. Real - non flame-y evil scary dragons. Cute dragons.

[sings4dragons]

Oh, they have their not so cute moments, but yes, they're real.

Only seen one dragon and it just kinda' flew into my dimension around the time the apocalypse almost happened. But never a cuddly non-stuffed dragon. Also, I'm Xander, not some dragon voyeur. They're just -- really cool.

Watcha speakin'?

Dragons back home keep our Holds and such safe. These are their smaller cousins, and they're not quite cuddly, but they're wonderful companions, all ten of them.

It's nice to meet you Xander. I'm Menolly.

Oh! It's French. I'm working on learning it as quickly as possible.

Ten? You have ten dragons? Wow. Ten - dragons.

You too, Menolly.

Oh! Why? For, the funsies? Or, the scholarly scholaring?

[sings4dragons]

They ended up Impressed on me by accident, but yes. Ten.

It's for work and such. Myrnin likes to take notes in French and English. This way, it's easier for me to transcribe them for him, as well as take cleaner notes while he's working on something.

Impressed? That -- doesn't mean how I think it means.

Myrnin? Oh, he's -- I guess he's my landlord? I'm staying at Oh Aces. Room 7. What does he take notes about?

Impression is a mental bond between dragon and rider, or keeper in my case. It's... mildly telepathic. They can understand what I say as long as it's kept simple and can be taught easy tasks and such.

I had no idea! I live with Myrnin, so I'm sure you'll see me around. I'm usually in the lobby area playing in the evenings.

He's a scientist and enjoys experimenting on things.

Wow. That's ...well, for lack of a better term? Impressive. And also cool. Wish I had an impressing dragon.

Yeah, I'm three days old here so - yeah. And I think I passed by you tonight! I'm no music expert but it sounded good. Or, you know, skilled.

Oh. Even cooler. All with the Dr. Frankensteining. "It's Aliiiiive" ... [yes, he gestures, puts his hands up and shakes] Um...sometimes I just shouldn't. Hah...

[sings4dragons]

They can be a little troublesome to take care of, but I wouldn't trade it for anything.

I certainly hope it sounded decent. I've been slacking on my practicing and I'm not quite up to par thanks to my hands.

[It's all good, since she's laughing now] Oh, I think you should. He's not quite a mad scientist, but he has his moments.

video

[perspectiveguy]

Yeah, I mean, I see why. Cute, still. I kind of can't stop staring at them.

Well, I'm not musically par guy so it sounded good to me. Great even. Great-good. Grood.

He seems quiet? But nice!

[sings4dragons]

If you ever come across us in the lobby or such, come meet them. They're mostly friendly, especially Lazybones. He loves everyone.

Thank you.

He's quite nice, but if he's ever in a bad mood, it's best to steer clear of him.

video

[perspectiveguy]

I can't say no to meeting 10 impressed dragons. I just can't.

I will remember that. Bad mood. Steer clear. Got it!

video

[sings4dragons]

Please do so. I don't want him trying to eat someone.
