"Oh, Asher knows I was teasing. He knows he's my boy and I love him," she scratched his forehead. "Don'tcha?" And she was his as much as he was her. No one would ever separate them. "You may. He loves to be scratched under the chin, just fyi." And Asher loved meeting new people, and getting pets from them. "Well, the dragon wasn't sure what it's name was..." Happens from time to time. Rarely but it happens. They couldn't all be as sure of their name as Charlie the broom. "So I threw out a bunch of options to Asher, since it is his toy, and let him pick the one he liked. That was Kurwich Kurfluffle."
Tiara understood the sentiment and nodded. It was like the rush she would get before a gymnastics meet growing up. Early mornings just didn't seem to matter, adrenaline carried you through it all.
"
It sounds like you and Asher make a fine team, then," she remarked. She had never had a pet of any sort, not even a goldfish. Or a pet rock, like Airey. So she really enjoyed getting permission to bond with someone else's pet, even if it was only for a moment. "
Hello, Asher!" she greeted, giving him a few scratches in his favorite spot. "
You be nice to Kurwich Kurfluffle. He looks like a very nice dragon."
The stands were starting to get a few more people at this point. "
I wonder when the racers will start to arrive. I do not think I can wait too much longer!" But really, she couldn't. "
Maybe some sort of announcement will let us know or something." Hopefully so, because eventually she wanted to visit that food court area she had passed on her way over here...
