video; what's up with those dragons?
Type: Video
Sender ID: pinksidekicking (Nimona)

Subject: Dragons
Warnings: Only maybe spoilers for Nimona movie
[ Please do not adjust your screens, there is, in fact, a pink gorilla appearing on the network. One who opens their mouth and a somewhat feminine voice comes out of. ]
You know, there are a lot of awesome things about this place. You can have a crew, no one's trying to kill you just because of being different, all the new foods, getting to explore the world, having ample opportunity to use fish and sea puns... breaking things sometimes. [ The gorilla is counting on their fingers. ]
Really, I could go on and on about why I love this world. [ It sounds like there's a- ]
But! You know what really gets me? We can't adopt dragons! Sure, they say "dragons can't be tamed", or "they're just too wild". [ Cue the quotation marks and the eye roll. ] But all I want in this life is a tiny pink mini-me dragon. Who better to try and be a dragon parent than someone who's also a dragon? At least a dragon on occasion.
Come on, you can't keep placing dragons in front of me and expect me to not want to adopt one of my very own! I am literally made to be a dragon parent, watch this!
[ The gorilla is setting up the phone to stand on its own, then steps back several feet before... with a little sparkle of pink magic - turns into a semi-large, equally pink dragon. It's holding out front arms like "ta-dah"! ]
Dragon parent Nimona!

But it's not as if he can deny that understanding - to be isolated, to be looked at like an aberration.
Of course, he wears it proudly. (But he had often thought, at some times more than others, that his soul had been placed in the wrong body.)
He isn't one for offering what he sees as useless platitudes. So, instead... ]
Do you want to prove them wrong?
[ He had accepted that shunning, that alienation, turned it into a strange strength at a cost he is only beginning to comprehend. He is most curious to know what she wants, with the world against her. ]

Eh. It'd be enough if one person saw who I was.
[ If children didn't pick up swords and point them at her. ]
