Ship's damaged, ain't much of a market here, still shitty dragons everywhere. We've been told they ain't all that dangerous, though. Ha, yeah, tell that to Franky, damn things nearly took down the whole mast and our sails look like shit. But there's a lot of ships in the harbor, so at least we know they've got the means to fix this.

Apparently this island is called Berk. Shitty name. The people here—

...

Are they riding the—? What the hell. ...Back in a bit, gonna go take a closer look.

We will!

Haha okay. How to you make him fall over again?

There's this spot kinda...behind his jaw. Just try that whole area; you'll find it!

HAHA! Found it!

AND DOWN HE GOES!! HAHAHA!!!

Okay, I'll be right back! Like...ten minutes, TOPS!

Hahaha.

Okay, we'll be here.

There!!

This should be enough rope, right?

Hm...he looks asleep. Do you think it would be better to put it on him now, or should I wait for him to wake up?

I think we should do it now. It'll be easier if he's not moving around.

What if it wake him up or surprises him, though?

Um. ...okay. I'll put the rope on him and you get ready to scratch his neck again if he freaks out. Sound good?

Then he'll wake up?

Okay!

...well, I meant more like...what if he's surprised and he tries to start me on fire or something.

This should work, though. Actually...he doesn't seem like he minds, does he? Maybe he already knows we want to ride him. I wonder if he...belongs to someone. But no one's said anything to me, and he's been following me around for a couple days now.

Well then we'll put you out.

Well he probably sees all the other dragons with people riding them. Or something. It seems like they don't really mind in general. And maybe the person who owned him is away or something.

...that's not exactly comforting.

Ah, but I guess we don't have to worry about it. Look, I think he's even getting a little excited about it. Do you think having people ride around on you is...sort of a status symbol if you're a dragon?

Hm. Okay, I think we can get on him now.

Maybe. We should ask Chopper to ask him.

Awesome. Let's go!

We SHOULD.

W-wait, let's do it on the count of three, okay? He better not just try and take off as soon as we get on...

Okay! One! Two!

...three!!

Hm. Do you think we need to...say giddy-up or something? He's not doing anythiiiiiiiiiii--

...I wasn't expecting that.

Hahah! Hold on!

I AM, trust me! Make sure you hold on to me, too!!

I'm holding!

...yeaaah, you're holding on pretty tight, actually. But. It's okay!

Uh.

Oh man, we're already this high?!

...sorry! Am I hurting you? It's just...there's no seatbelt.

Yeah! I bet we can go above the clouds!

No! No, it's fine! You just kinda...squeezed the breath out of me at first, but it's okay now! It's better you hang on tight so you don't fall!!

...m-maybe. Uh. Okay, first I should probably make sure I can steer him okay. So far I've just kinda been, uh. Letting him do the driving.

Sorry, I got a little too excited.

Haha okay. Steering is good.
