She didn't want to hurt it or anything, nor did she want to get burned so asking was better then just doing. Quote:

It sounded cool, flamy, courageous, awesome, and dragon-like!
Naaah, she made up her mind. She was gonna vote for that name and not the ones she suggested. Even if Charizard sounded pretty cool too.
Oh...seeing as the Baby Dragon is asleep, can she cuddle pet it nooow? Hurriedly, Beezus propped her things into her backpack, slid each of the straps into her shoulder and walked over to where Professor Williamson was. "Errrrr, Professor?" Her eyes immediately traveled to the wonderful creature. "Can I...touch your the baby?" Heh. She was making it sound like it was really a little child! Quote:

"Professor this dragon won't bite if i try to pet it right?" Annabelle asked nervously. "Thank you soo much for the lesson Professor. I really learned a lot from this.." she said with a smile. She also voted for her favorite name out of all the suggestions. Quote:

She went into the orderly line and smiled big, yes she was going to pet the baby dragon. Yay!! She said Thanks for the lesson Professor can I pet your baby?? What Nerida really wanted to do was give it a hug, and you could tell it in the girls eyes and a bit in her voice, but she knew the Professors would never allow such a thing... Quote:

She went back to the wee dragon and waited patiently in line and told the Professor I love your wee dragon and it was an amzing first lesson! I cant wait to come back for the next and the next and the next and all the next lessons!!! Quote:

She got up from the floor and went over to peek at the sleeping baby dragon. It looked so cute. 'I wonder what Caleb would say about this? I bet if he knew, he'd find a way here to see him.' Alyssa thought of her cousin. But for now it was time to let sleeping dragon's lie, although Alyssa did have the urge to stroke it.
So she turned and walked up to Professor Williamson and asked,"Professor is it okay if I stroke the baby dragon aka little Willy before I leave?"
"By the way thank you again for another interesting class."Alyssa thanked the Professor. Quote:

Not one bit of it.
So, the dragon...YES, it had been confirmed to be a DRAGON, was making that egg bounce around...and at any moment, was going to bust out and possibly scorch them all with his FLAMES OF RAGE. Dylan knew that if he'd been cramped up in a tiny shell for however long, he'd have been quite upset himself. So, there was no blaming the baby for that.
And then there were cracks...and more cracks, someone was screaming...Bloody he-...Who WAS that screaming?
Looking around a bit, Dylan spotted Bee as the source...and ROLLED his eyes. Seriously? What was it with girls, anyway?
Then the shell was busting open and the Slytherin had to admit, he was a little worried. Perhaps the Dragon, being so young, wouldn't know better and would go on a rampage, roasting them all. IT COULD HAPPEN! Even if they were all wearing fire-proof stuffs...Their faces were still exposed! And Dylan cared far more about his face than he did other parts of his body, if he were being honest.
O.O
He was a little thing...A tad bigger than the Slytherin thought he'd be...but yea. Eying the little baby with fascination curiosity, Dylan moved closer. Like he'd said earlier, he'd never had the privilege of seeing one in person. So, this was new for him. New...and a little exciting. But just a little...
Names? They were throwing out options. Apparently, WWW hadn't premeditated one. Some of the suggestions were good...Like blaze...and that slightly longer one that Vicky had thrown out...but some were just stupid. Like fruity?! Yes, it was OBVIOUSLY a girl suggestion...
Honestly...naming a dragon something like that...
Wha...What? Class was over already?
Blinking a few times, Dylan started stuffing things back in his bag. The class had been...exciting and eventful. He'd say that much about it.
Hearing the offer to pet the Dragon before leaving, he moved a bit closer, eying the little creature. When close to the Professor, the baby didn't seem at all agitated or frustrated. Just like human babies...Just not as whiny or irritating.
Reaching out a hand, he petted the things scaly surface rather quickly before proceeding to back away. He didn't want that thing, no matter how cute he was, to burn his face...or anything else. "Erm. Good lesson, Professor." He offered, before quickly turning to make his way back towards the castle. Quote:

The best I've ever had" she said grinning as she slowly moved towards the little dragon. "It's so adorable" she had to restrain herself from trying to cuddle it as she stroked it, looking at the little baby dragon lovingly. Now all she had to know was were she could get one when she was older! Quote:
Originally Posted by hjhm Everyone seems to want to tackle take care of the dragon. Well it was the cutest thing ever. But Jonathan just stood there with a dorky smile on his face, maybe next time if he gets to see it around, he'll just have an one on one session with the baby. He still thinks Draco would be an awesome name to it. Whatever they decide on, Jonathan will still call it Draco and that's official.
Well, the lecture is done isn't it? Jonathan took a few steps over to the Professor "Best lecture, Professor" still eyeing the dragon and the bunch of students lining up for it. Quote:
Originally Posted by sweetpinkpixie Kurumi wanted DESPERATELY to pet the baby dragon before she left, but seeing as there was already a crowd around the poor thing and all it wanted to do was take a nap...Kurumi opted to not ask Professor Williamson right now. It would only disturb the baby, right? It was the motto of Hogwarts after all, never tickle a sleeping dragon and that was certainly a sleeping baby dragon.
Then again...he DID offer that anyone who wanted to could come up and wait their turn to pet the baby...
So....logic aside, Kurumi left her things on the ground, completely forgotten, and made her way towards the line that had already formed and waited patiently for her turn as she continued to hum Twinkle Twinkle Litter Star. Maybe now would also be a good time to bring up that conversation she wanted to have about her post Hogwarts career?
When it came to be her turn, Kurumi didn't immediately reach out, waiting for Professor Williamson to give her the official go ahead and any instructions that may be necessary for touch a baby dragon. THIS...was going to be her first physical contact with a dragon and she really didn't want to mess this up. It WAS GOING TO BE PERFECT! Quote:

Part of him wanted to leave the sleeping dragon be, yet theres always that side of him that is forever curious and wanting to try something he hasnt done before-- like touching a real live dragon.
He went to the chalkboard and cast his vote, then fell into the line for the dragon petting. Couldnt hurt to try to feel what its scales felt like this young innit?

As Ella made her way to the large line of students waiting to pet the baby dragon, she couldn't help but feel a bit anxious. What if Professor Williamson said they had to leave before petting the baby? OR What if Ella was petting the baby and woke it up, causing it to cry-erm-roar again? FROWN. Ella hoped none of these things would happen.
When it was finally her turn, Ella approached Professor Williamson and the baby dragon quietly, tiptoeing just in case that would help keep the baby sleeping. Eyeing Williamson with a nervous smile, she put out a shaky hand and raised an eyebrow at her Professor. "I-Is this okay, j-just petting him-erm-her-it like this?" Ella hoped so. She didn't want to hurt the little guy. And then she made contact and just about melted. D'awww she was petting a baby dragon! A BABY DRAGON! How cool is that? Taking her hand away after a few minutes, she beamed at Professor Williamson. "Professor, this was the absolute BEST class I have EVER had at HOGWARTS in all of my erm-TWO years." She whispered this, of course, though her enthusiasm could still clearly be noted. Then with one last look at the only cutest baby dragon Ella had ever seen, she gathered her things and headed for the door. Quote:

She hesitated on the outskirts of the crowd that wanted to pet the baby dragon but at the same time she didn't. Standing there a little conflicted she argued the pros and cons of petting the dragon. However, it was a big yawn that made the decision for her. It was late and she was tired. So she decided she could leave and maybe pet the dragon some other day.
"Great class Professor Williamson. I really enjoyed it," she said and then left heading to the castle. Quote:

That was for sure she pet the little dragon softly and how her Godmother Caroline told her. Caroline worked with all animals and her husband owned a zoo which happened to have a dragon. Quote:

Let's go up now and pet it before it wakes up. he looked back to his friend, better to pet it now than wait after so many others have disturbed it's sleep. The little Dude/Dudette was probably dreaming of guarding a large pile of gold.

That thing will be huge in no time anyway." he said in a hushed tone-- being cautious not to disturb the sleeping dragon. "All right, if you're so brave Oakey...you go first." he motioned his head toward the dragon. He checked if he had his safety gloves in his bag and wore it right away, while waiting for Oakey to do his turn.

He then went over the professor cause he like REALLY wanted to pet that dragon.. it could be his one and only chance to pet one in his whole life even though he was a kid still "Thanks for the great class professor.. really surprised us with this little guy" he whispered with a big smile on his face.. and then proceeded to very lightly and gently pet the baby while he let others as well.. wow! he had never felt dragon scales before but these were really cool!
"Professor would there be a chance of us being able to visit him while he grows up with you?" he asked the professor.. cause like he really wanted to visit the little guy before he had to leave.. and then maybe in the future he could visit a grown up dragon that MAY remember him from his baby days.. although unlikely and the dragon would probably want to kill him.. but worth a try to have a dragon buddy.. right?

She smirked in amusement as the dragon curled up on the professor's feet then she turned her attention to the professor.
Sierra gave the professor a 'you have got to be kidding me' expression. He was going to raise the dragon until it was old enough to be on its own?! WAS HE INSANE?! Ahh, well. To each his or her own. ...and he hadn't heard of Roro? Well, ...now he had. Either way, it was added to the poll, so Sierra was pleased.
She sort of tuned out to whatever else was said but knew she needed to go cast her vote before leaving. She may also stay and think about petting the dragon. If for nothing else then to say that her prefect duty of the day was done. She approached the board, read over the suggestions, and then marked her vote.
Then she--slowly but surely, mind you--joined the line waiting to pet the dragon. So as long as the creature didn't get upset that people were interrupting his sleep.

Not that he was suggesting everyone including muggles were to be exposed to the wonders of a baby dragon. It would take away from the rare and priviledged event that he and the rest of the class had just witnessed.
The sixth year was brought back to the present when Professor Williamson dismissed the class, mentioning homework would be available later in the week. Writing down the last bit of notes, he stashed both quill and parchment in his bag gathering up his belongings. Now to vote for the name for the new baby.
Gideon slipped his sachel over his shoulder and approached the board to do just that. He waited until it was his turn seeing as there was already a good deal of students making their decision. Looking over the list gathered to give each name even those he might not have heard the chance to be picked, he finally marked his choice and made to leave. "Good evening Professor...and thanks for class."
Petting the dragon could wait for another time.
Smiling and nodding, nodding and smiling at all the students' kind words, Willy felt a great sense of relief. It was as if a weight, a great, heavy, stressful anvil, had been lifted from his shoulders. And now everything was great in the world! Heck, he was cuddling a NEWBORN in his arms!
Granted, it wasn't HIS newborn, exactly, but WHATEVER. It was CUTE.
"All right, all right, for those of you who want to pet the baby, just step on up and gently stroke it's head. Do NOT try tickling it under the chin or on the belly, especially not while it's asleep." These kids had heard of Hogwarts' motto, right? It was like, Dash's responsibility to teach that to them, anyway.
"When you're done petting, please slowwwwly and softlyyy step away and silently gather your things. You guys have been a great class." Even if he did disagree with their name of choice. "Have a good night, kids."
OOC: You may RP petting the dragon (in one post, please) and then head on out. THANKS SO MUCH FOR ATTENDING. You guys are great!!!!
