[There is a rustle of blankets and a half-snore-half-snort sound over the journals as one (1) baby dragon wakes up from his week-long sleep. The last thing he remembered was being at home, falling, and then he was going to...

He pauses, looking around. Okay. This isn't Equestria. This is Paradisa. And he's definitely not falling to his 'death' right now.

Oh, but then he remembers what happened here, what he did. He is in so much TROUBLE. He grabs his journal, not even noticing right away that it's almost empty]

Oh man, I am so sorry for what happened, guys. I didn't hurt anypony, did I? I'll do anything to make it up to you. And I'll fix anything I broke. And uh...I'll find all the stuff I took and I'll give it back, I swear.

I'm really, really, really sorry.

Oh, good, I'm glad.

It's a dragon thing I didn't know about until it was too late. Apparently we grow when we get more things, and get more greedy in the process. It won't be happening again.

[modernholmes]

I'm a detective, after all. Locating a few objects isn't difficult.

[He was getting a headache even contemplating how something like that would work.]

...Good. Ignoring any kind of effect it had, beginning to commit thefts is never a good idea.

[huffythedragon]

...Okay, I guess you have got that

I know that normally, I wasn't thinking straight.

[modernholmes]

I picked up on that, somehow.

[huffythedragon]

Yeah, the whole roaring and setting stuff on fire was probably a giveaway.

[modernholmes]

Just a little. It was very inconvenient.

...Are all adult dragons like that?

[huffythedragon]

Yeah. My species are kind of jerks. I need to figure a way around that.

[modernholmes]

To keep your mind, if nothing else.

[huffythedragon]

Yeah, not liking the lack of speech and reasoning right now.

[modernholmes]

Have you looked in the library yet?

[huffythedragon]

I can do that here, I guess. It won't do me much good back home, though. Dragons almost never go to Equestria, so the ponies know very little about us.

[modernholmes]

You could think of this as an opportunity to learn more.

[huffythedragon]

And it can help everyone else, too. I don't ever want to be a danger again.

[modernholmes]

Once you know the risks, it is usually easier to take action against it.

[huffythedragon]

Exactly! Besides, it wouldn't hurt to try and learn more about dragons anyway, I know almost nothing.

[modernholmes]

Do you know where to start?

[huffythedragon]

Uh huh. I've memorised where all the books in the library are.
