#enderdragons are one of those species where the females are bigger than the males

[anarchy-and-piglins]

Modern AU where enderdragon!Philza is captured by a shady corporation who lock him up in a lab to experiment on him. One day, they want to see how he reacts to a human being (they just want to see how Phil kills his prey).

So they yoink a random college student named Techno from the streets.

They fully expect Phil to maul Techno on sight. But he doesn't. Maybe it's because Techno isn't armored, and he's not wearing a lab coat. Maybe it’s because he's locked in just like Phil is, and he looks scared. Maybe it’s because Phil has been in isolation so long his dragon hoard instincts are on high alert.

Whichever the case, Philza looks at this random human and goes "oh, he's friend shaped. My treasure now!"

The scientist are in awe when Phil doesn’t eat Techno. He just manhandles him so they can snuggle up together instead. After a few days of Phil taking care of Techno and having no intention to kill him, somebody goes in to take Techno away and resume with different experiments.

The problem is Phil doesn’t appreciate that. Like, at all.

Finally using his full powers at seeing somebody try to lay a hand on his hoard, Phil breaks out of the facility easily and leaves it a crater. He takes Techno with him. And like a good dragon, he brings Techno home to his nest, where his mate Kristin and their sons Wilbur and Tommy are waiting.

Aka Techno can be adopted by the entire family!
