If You Saw a Dragon

what would you do if you saw a Dragon?

I don't know, kill it.

why?

because that's what they do.

who?

you know, the men in armour and stuff on TV, they just find it and kill it, and obviously, they get a prize at the end, like a sexy princess or maybe treasure, the brightest silvers and the heaviest golds, with every jem in all types of jewels ... and I want that so I'd probably kill it.

so you're saying that, because you want a sexy princess and to basically be rich, you'd kill a dragon, just for that reason?

well, I mean also probably because I want people to know that I was capable of killing a fiery, fierce, bloodthirsty beast like a dragon. What would you do?

I'd watch it, I'd watch it fly, I'd watch it growl, I'd watch it watch me, I'd watch it. I'd watch because, it would watch me and it wouldn't watch me to see what it's first attack would be, but it'd watch me because I'd probably be the one to attack first, because of human nature and how it knows us to be like. But why would I attack it? what did it do? what has it done but watch? so I would definitely just stare and watch it because it'll be so beautiful, with reflective purple scales and maybe purple eyes that have seen the bottom of a volcano and the tops of heaven. The wings, that'll be my favourite part, because humans think they're the highest of living species on earth, but where are our wings? Hm. If we are the highest form of life on this floating rock, let's wake up every morning and go fly with a dragon, this dragon, but we can't because we're nothing compared to them, and that's why I think humans kill them, because if we aren't able to then we would feel like a rock next to a mountain, and for some reason that makes humans feel weak, vulnerable and just insignificant next to them and so we feel the need to kill the dragon to then feed our ego's, which is the dangerous thing in this scenario. Feeding our egos. Not the dragon.

so you... wouldn't kill the dragon?

no.

why.

I didn't say it was a fierce, fire-breathing dragon. I just said a simple dragon, not surrounded by the stigma of the treasure or keeping hold of a "sexy princess", just a simple dragon. And I don't think you'd kill it for those reasons either, a big reason why'd you kill it because it threatens you just by existing and because of the fear of the unknown. We don't really know what they do since the TV just feeds you what they do and you just believe it. right?

no. for the sexy princess and treasure. I don't even know why I'm friends with you sometimes.

If you weren't friends with me, you would've killed an innocent dragon.

correction, the dragon would've killed me.

yeah. probably.

definitely.

definitely.
