Say. Are you still off work? Or did you go back today without saying?

I don't think so. I'm going to owe a bunch more favours, but I haven't been burning too much leave for this; everyone's been quietly covering my shifts for me. 'Swhat we do, when someone needs time away for a family crisis: everybody swings into action and figures out what needs to get done. Us dragon folk are a practical lot. (Then we whinge at each other later.)

So, I'll likely work a bit more than I have been, just to pay back the people who did the most for me while I was gone, but I should still have time to come 'round and annoy you. And yeah, I'll stop in tomorrow night. As long as Mum doesn't want to keep me. Or Bill needs somebody to lean on some more

Tell Miss Bea that most dragons don't snore, but sometimes they hiccup in their sleep and belch fire. The Hogwarts motto isn't just a fancy bit of Latin -- the reason you never tickle a sleeping dragon is because if you surprise it, and you're in the way when it hiccups, you'll be losing your eyebrows at very least!

Sleep well, luv. Pleasant dreams.

Ta. I'll tell her.

Come round tomorrow night if you can. I'll understand if you can't, of course, but I'll be sad.

'Night, you.

If you want, you know, I could arrange for a tour of the Reserve for you and Little Miss Sunshine, and she could meet a dragon up close. Well, not too close, but one of the Fireballs half domesticated himself last winter and moved back into one of the spare cabins over this winter as well. He decided Sasha and Alex's four-year-old twins are just strangely shaped dragon kits and tries to herd them around if he thinks they're not minding. It's adorable.

(Mind you, I totally understand if you're a bit nervous about letting Little Miss too near them, but either way, you should come up for a visit.)
