An alive dragon.
He watched as if in trance the harness-wearing ceremony. He then heard the words the professor spoke to indicate they should be ready. He watched and heard it all, but still didn't react. The only signs that he was still alive were his blinking and gulping.
They were going to walk a dragon.
An alive dragon.
When Kennedy called out that they were ready, he suddenly shook out of the trance and turned to them at last. He just... he had to be brave and let the others not talk about his fear. He could actually do it. Plus, Aspen was watching and... he'd made a fool of himself already both in Herbology and dungeons. He jsut had to be brave like a stupid 'dork and get over with it.
"I'm... okay..." he said to the others in a weak, but determined voice and nodded as if he was trying to convince the others, though he tried to convince himself more.
He was ready... Aspen was there... the whole school was there... and he certainly didn't want to be all wet and laughed at like Kurumi. Quote:

I absolutoely love it!!!", Oichi said and ended on a bright smile. Quote:

Once the speaker!Slytherin had decided that it was time to go for the walk, Lily took a step to be right next to the older claw. Yep... she was going to buddy up with Stella on the leash. The twelve year old didn't want to get stuck with the other slytherin who looked like he was going to either lose his lunch or pass out like the gryffindor prefect had done. With a small smile on her face, she waited for the rest of the group to get ready so that they could get the leashes and get walking. Quote:

It could breath fire and kill her probably, but that didn't mean she was scared. Okay maybe Addie was a tiny bit scared, but not as scared as she others. "Yep I'm Addie," she said making her introduction nice short and sweet as they got ready to walk the dragon.
Addie took one of the four leashes as she saw Lily attach herself to Stella's side. "I can partner with someone on my leash," she said eyeing the little Gryffindor and the Slytherin who looked like he might faint, either one would be fine by her. She just wanted to walk the baby dragon because it would be fun. Still keeping an eye on Roro as she waited for Kennedy to respond to her suggestion as to how they should walk the dragon, Stella had kept the rest of her attention on the rest of their group. Especially João, as she still wasn 't sure he'd be alright to join them once they got everything figured out. She had to give him points as he'd finally spoken up, though. Something was giving him the determination to stay upright, and she looked around only to see Aspen just sort of hanging around while everyone else was grouping up. Mentally shrugging, as she really didn't care to get into the Slytherin's motivations beyond knowing that he wasn't about to faint on them, she just turned back to him with a reassuring smile. Roro was just a baby dragon, after all. They'd be fine.
It helped that Oichi and Addie seemed to be excited over the prospect of walking Roro, which, combined with Kennedy's unsaid confidence, convenced her even more that things would be fine. And she'd have a story to tell over the holidays, as well. She'd looked down at Lily with another smile as the smaller redhead had seemed to agree with her earlier suggestion that she pair up with herself, too. All they really needed was Oichi's exuberance, and it would keep the rest of their spirits up. As long as it hadn't seemed to influence Roro himself, of course. Are dragons like dogs, as in, they react to our own excitement almost exponentially?, she wondered. Roro was definitely not a dog, but if she could mentally pretend the dragon was, she'd get through this easier. Text Cut: Roro ze dwagon and fearless leader Kennedy Quote:

He wanted to walk already!!!
Roro had no idea who this one wittle hooman was talking to, but he did snap his wittle dragon jaws at her and let a big spot of drool drip down his jaw. She was just standing there, so... did dat mean she was a dead ferret snack? She looked like a dead ferret. Quote:

AHA!
João! He slowly turned his attention toward him and grinned. "João, would it be okay if Oichi partnered up with you to hold the leash?" Because she was excited and ready to go as where the older Slytherin boy still seemed hesitant about it.
As he waited for an answer he turned to Stella. Since Lily seemed to know her Kennedy figured they'd feel comfortable partnering up, but it was up for debate if they thought otherwise. "Hey, Stella you wouldn't mind Lily joining you to handle the leash, would you?" he asked.
If everyone was fine with that then that left Kennedy and Addie each to a leash. "So, Addie here's a leash." Then he handed one to João and Stella. Was everything okay? Yes? No?
Kennedy wanted to walk the dragon already!
Kennedy's eyes sparked with excitement. HE was holding a leash to a dragon. Not just any dragon though, a dragon he had seen hatch. He held out his hand to it, but not in an intimidating way. It was more of a may-I-pet-you kind. He did that when he wanted to pet a dog. Let them sniff you first, letting them know you mean no harm.
"Hey, Roro." Roro certainly wasn't acting much different than a dog. A puppy, even, if said puppy was itching for exercise and could snap off your hand with one bite. She'd turned back to watch the dragon in time to catch the drool dripping down, and realized it was eyeing their lone Gryffindor. Oichi of the dragon exuberance, which only furthered her theory that the young dragon was influenced by the excitement. At least, she hoped that was just it, because she wasn't entirely certain how Professor Williamson would react to the dragon trying to eat one of his students for lunch.
The concern was pushed back as she'd heard her name again, and she turned to nod at Kennedy as he'd asked if she was fine partnering with Lily on a leash. That had been her idea anyway, even if she hadn't actually said it, so she was perfectly fine with it. Obviously Lily was as well, and she gave the redhead a smile as the prefect and their defacto group leader continued to establish leash instructions, and she took the leash that was handed to her confidently as Kennedy himself had approached the dragon carefully. They'd walk Roro around the barn, and nothing was going to happen to make it anything other than just a normal circumstance of caring for any of the magical creatures in the sanctuary. Well, maybe not the pygmy puffs, but any of the larger creatures.
