I should have asked Zoph how to handle little dragons...
[Well! Since the dragon isn't biting his fingers off, it probably is friendly enough. Akihiko offers a finger like he's sacrificing it for the dragon to gnaw on it and keep itself busy, and looks around to see if there's someone here watching over anyone here, he waves at the chao with the ribbon]
Hi. Know anything about who this critter belongs to?
[ oh, a fingie! one of his chinese dragon style clawsies reaches out to grasp the finger, instead of gnaw on it. so there's that.
the chao blinks at akihiko, before cooing, and... pointing to itself. technically them, it guesses? before pointing to the little baby dragon, then itself again, then back to the dragon.
[The revelation this dragon, adorable and playful, belongs to another chao makes Akihiko's look up at him, hope in his eyes. Akihiko makes sure to shoot that down]
You're not getting a dragon of your own. Or any other creature. I'm way too young to be a grandfather.
[Akihiko's chao is mightily disappointed.
Akihiko entertains this small reptile for a while, moving his finger out of their grasp andencouraging them to pounce along, until he recalls something Ali had told him]
Are you able to take a human form?
[Ali said the dragon he raised figured out how to do that when she was three. Is this dragon at least three? How can you tell the age of a dragon? Or...maybe that's just something only the dragons of Ali's world can do, and nowhere else. Akihiko has no idea!
He doesn't even know he's rooming with a dragon himself, haha]
