Does anyone have any experience with the care of small, white dragons? What foods do they prefer?

What is the best way to determine their mood: head movements? Wings? Tail? Vocalizations?

Specifically, how can you tell when they are about to bite?

[Not that he's failed to tell he was about to be bitten a few times already. Of course not.

There is a picture of a small, snaky-bodied white dragon with a ruff running all the way down its long neck attached. In the picture, the dragon is flaring its wings over a plate of raw hamburger with a look of serious annoyance and its mouth wide open in a silent kyuuuu!]

How do you know?

[reformedsinner]

Have you thought about keeping a pet of your own? I know some of the other shinki here have dogs or cats!

[Sanzo, for one, is trying very hard to seduce Hibari's cat into switching loyalties. At least if his drawer full of dried squid is any indication.]

[onerous]

[oh my god]

A real dragon?

It probably eats meat?

[H GOD THERE'S A PICTURE SHE DIDN'T SEE IT UNTIL NOW. Oh no it's cute. how does she ask to see it and pet it in a Completely Mature Adult Way?]

When can i pet him?

[nailed it]

[erogappa]

i knew a guy who had one. dont worry you didnt know him.

[killsthebuddha]

Damn elaborate for a distraction. Or a trap.

If it eats you in your sleep, I'm washing my hands of this

[bighand]

[Dragon picture!! He'll keep it forever. More importantly, this may be just one tiny dragon someone's been given as... a pet? but it's yet another thing for Kija to decide totally confirms he's a dragon too. Cool.]

It does! !!! How powerful do you think he is? ?

[reformedsinner]

I'm trying fish. He seems much happier about that than the hamburger!

Perhaps if you come by tomorrow? He could use a little time to calm down, but I'm sure he'd like you once you've been introduced.

[scatterproudly]

Lots of things are getting here today.

[reformedsinner]

I see.

[That's either true or it's the most transparent way anyone's ever said "he was definitely your pet before."]

[reformedsinner]

Well, he's still very small.

I'm sure he could be quite powerful once he's grown.

[returnedfromtheline]

Yato won't let me.

And... I suppose it is a bit dangerous to keep a pet where we are now. [If going by the rabbit incident is any indication... Although that was partly Yato's fault too.]

[reformedsinner]

Ha ha, maybe they're new shinki?

He'd have to try very hard to eat all of me. I think you'd still have most of the corpse to dispose of.

[bighand]

He doesn't grow already? Perhaps we are different in that sense as well.

Could I meet him?

[If a text could be nervous...]

[erogappa]

i saw that other asshole got his pig back. you think thers something going on?

[killsthebuddha]

Isn't it supposed to go "does a dog have a Buddha-nature?" Not a dragon

I refuse. Elsa can do it.

[erogappa]

did you pick a name yet?

[reformedsinner]

Just as long as we have a plan.

Dragons seem like an easier question to answer than dogs, don't they?

[reformedsinner]

Yes, if you'd like to.

He's calming down a little now, I think. You'll still have to be quiet and not startle him.

[reformedsinner]

I've just been calling him "white dragon" so far. He seems to respond to it!

[scatterproudly]

Yep. Don't know if it's good or bad though.

[reformedsinner]

Where are you staying now? Is it Kofuku's household?

[bighand]

[!!!!!!!!!

So he'll have to get it out of his system beforehand, got it.]

I will be nothing but gentle and understanding! !!! I know it must be difficult for a young dragon to arrive in this world, all alone without any brethren....

[erogappa]

i think he looks more like a jeep

[returnedfromtheline]

Yes.
She's a binbogami, so she can't really help it, but bad things happen around her.
And she likes animals too. A little too much. Like in a 'I love you so much I'll crush you to death' kind of way.

[reformedsinner]

You understand! He was so upset this morning, I just don't want to upset him anymore.

[Please leave your exclamation points at the door.]
