I mean, you’re absolutely right in your conclusion, but your reasoning can be applied to horses, which can run just fine without you sitting there.

No, really what we’re missing is more of the Temeraire by Naomi Novik type of dragon riding where you basically get a dragon and apply mutualism a squad or several of lil’ folk who can do such exciting things as annoy your rivals with their smoll weapons and grand ambitions

the thing that bothers me about dragon riders is that the dragon absolutely does not have to let you climb on its back. your ability to 'ride' the dragon is entirely dependent on the dragon allowing you to do that. it could fly just fine without you sitting there. which means you are not a dragon rider, not really. that beast is not your pet. you're the dragon's pet. you're its trophy wife.

I've been feeling a bit down lately, tried to cheer myself up with some oc art, didn't really work.

Anyway, Genereux is more aloof and independent than her brother, but sometimes even she needs to have some alone time with Laurence and keep all his love to herself

A very Yellow Reaper

He is a very smoll boy and I love him.

Here's him with the very first plushie I made, Temeraire, and a pic of his little white under wing

This is my first time using this particular pattern, so of course now that I'm done I have a lot of things i would like to do differently next time, but I'm still very pleased with how this little guy turned out
