Hi again! Same anon as the last little prompt (which was delightful and brightened my day immensely <3). If it’s not too much trouble, I’d love to hear more about service dragons in urban fantasy. What tasks do they typically learn? Are there bigger dragons that do mobility or guide work? Are there training programs / foundations that place them with handlers? Do they have vests with flame-proof patches and holes for their lil wings? I’m so delighted by this concept. :D
Hahaha, thank you I’m so glad you like it ^^
The service dragons are a kind of spin off from my pocket dragon idea!
In my mind the Domestic Dragon Trust rescues, breeds, raises, trains and places these little dragons. The ones that show promise to be service animals get extra training. I imagine they’re quite good at comforting people, keeping an eye on proper meal times and getting people to take some exercise.
It’s funny you mention larger dragons. For some reason I cannot imagine large dragons as very animal in nature. I think once you have a creature living with you that is capable of speech and complex thought you no longer have a pet, you have a life partner :P
But I love the idea of little pocket dragons just hanging out, riding on your shoulder, stealing your keys and occasionally sneezing sparks to set someone’s homework on fire 💜
(Of course, if it were up to me, we’d have all kinds of mythological creatures shrunk down and riding on our shoulders)
Edit: Okay, I’m gonna level with you. I do not quite understand animals wearing clothes, I’m sure it’s a failing on my part. But anyone who manages to get a little fireproof vest with wing holes onto a tiny, sharp-clawed, sharp-toothed, fire-tongued dragon will have both my respect and my fear
