[ A very soft, quiet, SHEEPISH chuckle ...

But she slips inside, padding slowly closer. ]

Still wiped, huh. Sorry to disturb you, I just - wanted to ask you something while I still have the chance.

You may ask. The dragon sounds as tired as he looks.

[ She crouches in front of him, and asks, ]

Do you wanna come home with us? If it wouldn't hurt or change Macchan ...

The dragon manages to look surprised despite having only one eye open.

You wish for me to join you out there? I do not believe it would harm us...

I'd like it a lot if you can! If you want to. You're a precious part of one of my precious people ... and I don't wanna leave you behind in here by yourself. It feels lonely.

I believe I can. But I will require your help to make myself smaller. I am much fatigued. Strong potion is strong.

[ STRONG POTION IS STRONG. ]

[ hmmmmMM. Taps her chin, thinking, thinking. ]

I don't have a spell to shrink people ... [ That was more AlcheMe's thing. ] But I could temporarily turn you into a lizard or a snake or something? Or - could I do what Red Son and I kinda did in my heart, where I lent him some of my strength and he lent me some of his? It'd only be a drop in the bucket for you though.

the dragon chuckles. I do not require more power than my own. I will need some assistance from you, however. Come and pluck out one of the hairs from my mane, and then make the wish you desire.

Ooh! Okay!

[ normally she'd ask if it's really okay, plucking hairs HURTS, but also

he's a big strong badass dragon ]

So, just to check - do I just need to wish for the part where you can become travel-sized, or do I need to include you being able to come with us, too?

[ quickly pulls 1 (one) hair from his mane ]

Altering my size is all that is needed. Once that is done, I may go where I wish.

Then ...

[ She closes her eyes, and focuses on the wish - ]

I wish for you to be able to alter your size.

[ Ah, maybe she should have embellished it a bit ... hopefully it's enough for what he needs. ]

There is a poof of inky purple smoke which coalesces over the dragon, and then it shrinks down to the size of a small iguana.

I will require your aid to move, however. Your potion was most exhausting.

[ Ahahaha, ]

It's basically a "play dead" potion, so ... I'm not surprised!

[ She very, very gently, lovingly scoops him up. ]

He is gently, lovingly scooped. He barely moves, so he'll be easy to pocket.

I'm gonna put you in one of my pockets, 'kay? Just lemme know if it's not comfy for you.

[ She pads one out with (clean) homemade handkerchiefs, and then, unless he protests, carefully slips him inside ]

He does not protest, in fact he seems close to falling asleep again.

[ an itsy bitsy gentle headpat with one finger for the itsy bitsy sleepy dragon ]

[ MISSION ACCOMPLISHED ]
