"Sounds good." Smooch.

Smooch! He's so cute and friendly and wholesome! And attractive and good in bed!

And he doesn't snore!

Gosh. What a lucky girl she is.

And in the morning, she gets to jump off a building!

And he can shift so he's got the tip of his tail where he was standing and the rest of him under her! She doesn't land square in the saddle but it's pretty close. He gets air.

"That was amazing!" she says gleefully, clinging to the saddle.

"It took a while to get it right but it's always fun when I get a chance!"

"How do you practice something like that?"

"M'cousin has this friend and I said I thought I could do it and she said no way, and we practiced it till I could. She can turn into a cardinal, she was fine if I missed."

"What is with half the population of this world and being able to turn into things?" she wonders. "And where can I get me some of that?"

"There's not that many of us and you have to hatch or be born with it, sorry."

"Aww."

"Yeah, no fair."

"So not fair! There, that's one way my world's magic comes out ahead, anybody in the world can use it just as well as anybody else if they put in the time to learn how."

"I think only witchcraft is that fair."

"Maybe I should try to learn it, see if it's fair enough to give me a shot."

"Maybe! I dunno where to get you started on that, sorry."

"I'm sure I'll figure something out."

"Good luck. We bothering my aunt and cousin or just dropping you off at school?"

"Bothering your aunt and cousin sounds like fun!"

"Alrighty then. Lemme know if you need a break or decide you want to stop somewhere and buy sunscreen or whatever." And around he wheels.

"Will do!"

Wheeeeeeeee dragon rides.

"I'm not an aerobaticist or anything, but if you get bored and wanna loop..."

"You're the best!! Yes I definitely wanna loop!"

"All right, here goes!"

Loop!
